4A. “Central Park West” - Final Plat and Final Planned Unit Development
Location: Southwest quadrant of Highways 394 and 100 – 1511 Utica Avenue South
Case Nos.: 14-23-S, 14-24-PUD
Applicant: DLC Residential
REQUEST: The request is for a Final Plat and a Final Planned Unit Development (PUD).
RECOMMENDED MOTIONS:
• Motion to recommend approval of the Final Plat subject to the conditions recommended by
Staff.
• Motion to recommend approval of the Central Park West Final Planned Unit Development
and requested modifications subject to the conditions recommended by staff:
PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT PLANS: The requested Final Planned Unit Development
proposes to construct five buildings in phases. The proposed land use would include two 6-story
multiple-family residential buildings, a 6-story limited service hotel, two 11-story office
buildings, a 2,600-stall parking ramp, and a privately maintained gathering space. At full build-
out, the development proposes 363 residential units, up to 706,000 square feet of office, and up
to a 150-room hotel. The plans also include reconstruction of Utica Avenue adjacent to the
development site. The development includes property in both St. Louis Park and Golden Valley.
BACKGROUND: The proposed development site is part of the larger West End Redevelopment
area. The West End includes 49 acres of land at the southwest corner of I-394 and Highway 100.
Of the 49 acres, six acres are in Golden Valley. The developments within the West End include
The Shops at West End shopping center, The Flats at West End apartments, Millennium at West
End apartments (currently under construction), the Moneygram and 1600 office towers, and the
Olive Garden restaurant. All of which are located west of Utica Avenue between Gamble Drive
and Wayzata Boulevard.
The proposed development site is located east of Utica Avenue and was originally planned to
include four new office towers totaling 1.1 million square feet with a shared 7-level parking
ramp having 4,400 parking spaces. This site is mostly vacant with some surface parking lots. It
is 13.48 acres in size, and the eastern 6 acres of the site are within the City of Golden Valley.
In 2008, Duke Realty received Preliminary Plat and Preliminary PUD approvals from St. Louis
Park and Golden Valley for the first of the office buildings. The development was called The
Towers at West End. However, Duke has not applied for final approvals. The cities of St. Louis
Park and Golden Valley have granted several extensions to allow Duke Realty more time to
submit the Final Plat and Final PUD.
Meeting of March 4, 2015 Page 2
Subject: Final Plat and Final Planned Unit Development
The current applicant, DLC Residential, intends to purchase the land from Duke Realty and
proposes to develop a different land use mix on the site.
Environmental Review: Five scenarios for development were analyzed in 2006 and 2007 for the
environmental review, called an Alternative Urban Area-wide Review (AUAR). The analysis covered
a wide variety of environmental impacts as required by state statutes, including traffic generation and
transportation improvements, provision of utilities to the site, and impact to any natural systems.
The AUAR was adopted in 2007 and updated in 2013. The 2007 AUAR identified several mitigation
items. Most of those recommended improvements were implemented as part of the first phase of the
West End Redevelopment. There were also certain limits established in the AUAR, which the City
continues to monitor as each phase develops, relating to traffic generation, water use, and sanitary
sewer uses.
To analyze this most recent application from DLC Residential for Central Park West, the City hired
Kimley-Horn to review the AUAR and compare the impacts of the proposed land use changes to the
scenario(s) previously studied. The study found:
• Traffic generated by the revised scenario is beneath the limits established in the original
AUAR with the exception of morning peak (outbound) volumes. No additional mitigation
measures or adjustments are needed at this time because the morning peak can be
accommodated in the existing capacity of the transportation system, which was designed
to accommodate the higher afternoon peak traffic volumes.
• Sanitary sewer usage generated by the revised scenario will be accommodated within the
limits established in the original AUAR. No additional mitigation is needed.
• Water use is anticipated to be under the AUAR thresholds for the revised scenario.
However, the City’s preferred 90 percent total system use would be exceeded. Additional
mitigation measures or adjustments may be required. A condition of approval is included
in the staff recommendation.
A memorandum that provides more details about the study findings is attached for your review.
Jessica Laabs from Kimley-Horn will present the findings at the Planning Commission meeting
and will be available to respond to questions.
Joint Powers Agreement: St. Louis Park city staff proposes that St. Louis Park enter into a Joint
Powers Agreement with Golden Valley in order to address certain issues that will arise from
having buildings and other improvements that cross the municipal boundary of the two cities. It
would be advisable for only one city to be responsible for ongoing permitting and licensing for
specific improvements in “Central Park West.” At this time, a Joint Powers Agreement has not
been completed. Therefore, the developer is submitting plans to both the cities for zoning and
subdivision review and approvals.
Transit: Metro Transit is reviewing the proposed site plan and working with city staff to plan for
this redevelopment. Some bus routes will be re-routed to better serve the development. The
Meeting of March 4, 2015 Page 3
Subject: Final Plat and Final Planned Unit Development
timing of the re-routes will be determined by Metro Transit. A bus layover area has previously
been provided in the public street at the eastern end of 16th Street. The preliminary
redevelopment plans for Central Park West showed a bus turnaround at the terminus of 16th
street at the entrance to the new open space area. Staff has reconsidered this bus turn around and
determined this location would be undesirable for a couple of reasons. First, this location is a
gateway between the existing West End development and the open space proposed for Central
Park West and a bus turnaround creates a visual and physical barrier to this area. Additionally,
Staff is concerned with a bus turning around in this intersection and the potential impacts to both
motor vehicle traffic and pedestrian crossings. Metro Transit understands these concerns and will
continue to study future routes through this area to provide transit service and meet their needs.
Travel Demand Management: St. Louis Park and Golden Valley have a joint powers
agreement that requires developers to “prepare and effectuate traffic management plans which
will serve to reduce the traffic congestion.” The Travel Demand Management Ordinance (TDM)
in St. Louis Park requires that “the owner shall submit the traffic management plan to the joint
task force which shall review and approve all traffic management plans before they may be
implemented.” The joint task force is to be made up of two council members from each city,
each city manager and one staff member from each city.
A TDM plan has already been approved for the overall West End Redevelopment. The
developer submitted an amended plan that simply updates the plan to reflect the new site plan
and uses. Another meeting of the Joint Task Force is not warranted, and the updated TDM plan
will be included as an Official Exhibit to the PUD approvals. This issue may be revisited when
the office phases of development proceed.
Public Spaces: A gathering space (labeled linear park in the plans) that would be accessible to
the public is proposed at the terminus of 16th Street and extends to Wayzata Boulevard. Final
design details are still being discussed, but generally this area will include pedestrian and bicycle
pathways through the site, landscaping, lighting, seating, an artistic storm water feature and other
public art as well as space for less formal active and passive recreation.
This gathering space is proposed to be privately-owned and privately maintained, but accessible
to the public. The City is working with the developer on an agreement for public use of the
gathering space, and execution of this agreement is a condition of approval before a building
permit will be issued. Children’s play structures will also be incorporated that are compatible
with the landscape plan and other features of the gathering space.
Public Art: The gathering space (linear park) seems a natural location for public art. The city
proposes to lead a process with the developer to identify potential opportunities, and select an
artist and art work. The developer has agreed to find $180,000 of public art over phases I-V of
the development.
Sustainable Elements: The developer has proposed a storm water management system that
meets City and Watershed District requirements for rate and quality control by installing
underground detention and infiltration systems, and also that reuses storm water on-site. A
system is being proposed that would capture site and building storm water run-off and store this
Meeting of March 4, 2015 Page 4
Subject: Final Plat and Final Planned Unit Development
water for reuse as irrigation on the site. A component of the system is a landscape water feature
in the center of the gathering space that will provide a visual connection for the public to what’s
occurring on the site regarding storm water and is a potential location for public art to be
incorporated.
The developer is also expected to build the future office buildings to United States Green
Building Council Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design core and shell standards, in
accordance with the Redevelopment Agreement for the site.

FINAL PLAT ANALYSIS:
Description
The developer requests a final plat for 13.48 acres known as “Central Park West.” The final plat
consists of three lots and one outlot, which is for the future office development. The plat also
includes reconstruction of Utica Avenue adjacent to the development.
The City approved a final plat in 2008 that laid out the basic framework of road right-of-ways
and parcels for the overall West End Redevelopment. Most of the required right-of-way for
Utica Avenue, which is adjacent to this development, was dedicated as part of The Shops at West
End plat.
Uses
The proposed multiple family use is allowed by PUD as part of an office development. The
plans include significant future office development, and this site has been planned as part of the
overall West End Redevelopment area which includes the two existing office towers across the
street.
Lot 1 is located northeast of the intersection of 16th Street and Utica Avenue. The lot area is 3.46
acres. This lot is expected to be developed in the first phase with a 199-unit multiple-family
building with parking under the building and some surface parking stalls. The lot has parallel
frontage onto both Utica Avenue and Wayzata Blvd. This lot also includes the privately-owned
and maintained but publicly accessible gathering space.
Lot 2 is a corner lot abutting both Utica Avenue and Wayzata Boulevard. The lot area is 1.53
acres. Lot 2 would contain a 164-unit multiple-family building with parking under the building
and some surface parking stalls.
Lot 3 is located on the northeast corner of the site along Wayzata Boulevard. The lot area is 1.61
acres. Lot 3 would contain a future 120-150 room hotel and some surface parking.
Outlot A is 6.9 acres proposed for future office development. The preliminary plans show two
class “A” office towers totaling 706,000 square feet with a shared parking structure holding
approximately 2,500 parking spaces. Outlot A must be re-platted in order to build the future
office phases. Surface parking will be allowed to continue in the interim.
The three lots in the proposed plat meet all subdivision requirements for minimum lot size,
shape, and dimension.
Right-of-way Dedication
While the majority of the right-of-way needed for this development has previously been
provided, there are some areas where proposed public sidewalks fall outside the right-of-way.
The plat dedicates additional right-of-way to cover those limited areas.
Easement Dedications
The plat provides 10-foot wide drainage and utility easements adjacent to all public streets.
Subdivision variances were approved with the preliminary plat to allow no easements along
Meeting of March 4, 2015 Page 6
Subject: Final Plat and Final Planned Unit Development
interior lot lines. A 45-foot wide drainage and utility easement is provided on the south side of
Outlot A, where utilities will be relocated to connect to Utica Avenue. A drainage and utility
easement is provided over the underground storm water system on Lot 1 (phase I residential). A
similar easement is needed for the storm water system proposed on Lot 3 (hotel site). The
developer agreed to indicate this easement on the plat before the application goes to the City
Council. A similar easement dedication will also be needed when Oultot A is re-platted into lot
and block descriptions.
Easement Vacations
A 25-foot wide sewer easement runs along the St. Louis Park side of the municipal boundary.
This easement is for existing utilities that are proposed to be relocated to Utica Avenue. DLC
Residential applied for an easement vacation. The City Council will consider that application
and hold a public hearing at a future meeting. Construction of the buildings cannot proceed until
this easement is vacated.
There are also some private utility easements (communication and gas line) that will need to be
vacated as part of the development. The developer will work with the utility providers to
relocate the services to this site and vacate any unnecessary easements.
There are a number of existing temporary construction easements through the site that relate to
the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services lift station and sanitary sewer force main
construction, which is underway and will be completed in 2015. This improved infrastructure
will add 5 million gallons per day capacity to this area.
Park & Trail Dedication
Park dedication fees that will be due for the proposed Central Park West subdivision will be
$291,552. Trail dedication fees will be $64,575. The City will collect these fees prior to signing
the final plat. These fees are in addition to the fees already paid previously based on office use.
The Park and Recreation Advisory Commission recommended approval of accepting cash-in-lieu
of land at its December 3, 2014 meeting.
Tree Preservation
Nearly all the existing trees on the site will be removed. The developer will meet the tree
replacement requirements.
Final Plat Consistency
Staff finds the final plat is consistent with the approved preliminary plat with subdivision
variances.
ZONING ANALYSIS: The property is in the Office zoning district. The proposed development
includes several modifications to the Office district regulations. The City can approve these
modifications through the PUD process. More site plan and building details are provided for the
phase I and II residential buildings. The future hotel and office sites will need to provide
additional design details when they move forward. Staff includes a condition of approval that
the hotel and office phases be processed as major amendments to the PUD.

Subject: Final Plat and Final Planned Unit Development
Uses
Offices exceeding intensity classification 6 are permitted with a conditional use permit (CUP).
The PUD process incorporates/replaces the CUP review process and approvals. Staff finds the
proposal meets, or is able to meet, all the office district conditions listed below.
1. The materials used in and placement of all signs shall be integrated with the building design
and architecture. The sign plan has not been submitted with the preliminary PUD
application. Staff recommends this as a condition of final approval.
2. Landscape berms shall be used to reduce noise, improve views, and to produce other
environmental benefits. Berms shall also be used for wildlife refuge, wind and snow breaks,
dust reduction and to separate incompatible uses and control drainage. No landscape berms
are proposed, needed, or desired on this site.
3. Buildings shall be designed with proper provision and orientation for the
pedestrianway/skyway system to serve and link development. The plan provides pedestrian
access through the middle of the site, and provides for potential future skyway connections
between the office building and parking ramp(s).
4. Buildings shall be oriented and designed so as not to detract from one another or to unduly
restrict views to open space, malls and vistas. The plan was developed in a coordinated
fashion to preserve views of the Minneapolis skyline from the new office buildings to the
extent possible and the north building will have views onto the central gathering space.
5. All new buildings shall be compatible and complementary with existing buildings. Elements
of compatibility include, but are not limited to building form and mass, exterior materials
and their appearance and durability, landscaping, exterior lighting and site improvements.
The buildings will be compatible with the existing office towers west of Utica Avenue.
6. Loading areas, access, parking, signing, and building equipment shall be prohibited or
minimized next to residential areas to the extent appropriate in order to ensure compatible
development. The site is not adjacent to residential properties outside the PUD, and service
areas for the offices will be screened from view of the residential uses. The parking structure
is shown in the concept elevations to incorporate elements into the design to soften the views
from residential buildings and gathering spaces.
7. Open space and pedestrian links shall be established to provide access to buildings, parking
and transit; provide space for active and passive recreation; ponding, and for preserving
wetlands; and a suitable setting for buildings. In phase I the development will provide a
gathering space in the center of the development that has an area of 0.8 acres. Sidewalks and
pathways will be provided surrounding site and through the site. The plan provides for
creative active and passive recreation opportunities for office employees and people living
near or visiting the site. Additional outdoor recreation areas serving the office sites will be
developed in future phases of office development.
Meeting of March 4, 2015 Page 9
Subject: Final Plat and Final Planned Unit Development
8. The use is in conformance with the comprehensive plan including any provisions of the
redevelopment chapter and the plan by neighborhood policies for the neighborhood in which
it is located and conditions of approval may be added as a means of satisfying this
requirement. The plan is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, The West End PUD
concept plan, and the approved Central Park West preliminary PUD.
Staff recommends a condition of approval that the office phases of development be evaluated
and approved through the PUD major amendment process.
Multiple-Family Dwellings are allowed in the Office district by PUD. Staff finds the proposal
meets, or is able to meet, all the conditions listed below.
1. The housing is part of a larger development permitted within the district. Future offices are
proposed as part of the Central Park West Development and it is part of the larger West End
Redevelopment Area which includes two large office towers across the street.
2. The building design and placement provide a desirable residential environment. The
proposed plan provides buildings that address the sidewalks at street level, limit the exposure
to the nearby freeways to the extent possible, provides access to green space, and is located
within a pedestrian friendly urban environment with a number of grocery, retail and
entertainment businesses and employment opportunities within walking distance of the
residential buildings.
3. Access to off-site parks and open space, plazas and pedestrianways is provided. The
development includes a large gathering space at the center of the development, amenities
within the buildings, and a well-connect sidewalk network internal and external to the site.
4. The minimum spacing between buildings in a multi-building project is at least equal to the
average heights of the buildings except where dwellings share a common wall. The site plan
does not meet this requirement in all locations. The PUD allows modifications to any
required setback and height requirements. Staff finds that with a PUD, the multiple-family
dwellings can be allowed.
5. The density does not exceed 50 units per acre. The maximum density may be increased at the
sole discretion of the city council if two or more of the features below are provided. The
proposed residential densities of Lot 1 and Lot 2 are 85.4 units/acre and 98.8 units/acre
respectively. The proposal meets all the provisions listed below.
a. At least 80 percent of the required parking is provided in underground or aboveground
structures, including all levels of parking ramps. This condition is met.
b Buildings are placed at or near the street right-of-way and off-street parking is screened
from the public right-of-way by buildings. This condition is met.
c. At least 35 percent of the building ground coverage contains structures of six or more
stories in height, thereby conserving open space within the development site. This condition
Meeting of March 4, 2015 Page 10
Subject: Final Plat and Final Planned Unit Development
is met. The residential buildings are six stories tall and Central Park West provides an open
space nearly an acre in size in the center of the development.
d. The buildings are located in an area that is appropriate for urban development, and has
supportive services and amenities including transit, a high-quality pedestrian environment,
restaurants, retail shops, community gathering spaces and entertainment and recreation
opportunities. This site is located in an area that provides all the features listed above.
e. The lots are located a minimum of 500 feet from any R-1, R-2 or R-3 zoned property. The
site is not located within 500 feet of low density residential zoning districts.
f. Traffic analysis shows that the adequate levels of service standards can be met as defined
by the City Zoning Administrator. The AUAR completed for the overall West End
Redevelopment and the study of the AUAR review of the proposed uses demonstrates that
the traffic generated from this development can be accommodated by the transportation
system and provide an acceptable level of service.
6. The use is in conformance with the comprehensive plan including any provisions of the
redevelopment chapter and the plan by neighborhood policies for the neighborhood in which it is
located and conditions of approval may be added as a means of satisfying this requirement. The
plan is consistent with the environmental studies of this area, the goals of the overall West End
Redevelopment Plan, and the approved Central Park West preliminary PUD.
Hotels are permitted with conditions in the Office zoning district. Hotel heights are limited to
four stories or 45 feet within 100 feet of any parcel that is zoned and used or subdivided for
residential, or has an occupied institutional building, including but not limited to schools,
religious institutions and community centers. The hotel is not located within 100 feet of any
institutional buildings or any residential properties outside the PUD. However, it is within 100
feet of the two apartment buildings within the PUD. The PUD allows modifications to any
required setback and height requirements. Staff finds that with a PUD, the hotel use is allowed.
Staff recommends a condition of approval that the hotel phase of development be evaluated and
approved through the PUD major amendment process.
Architectural Design
The preliminary office and hotel building plans, and the final multiple-family dwelling building
plans, all demonstrate a high quality image that will be compatible with the surroundings. The
building exteriors include generous use of glass and other quality materials. Glass, stucco and
brick are counted as Class I materials on the residential buildings. The minimum Class I material
coverage on Phase I is 63%, and the minimum on Phase II is 68%. The residential buildings
exceed City Code architectural standards, and the future hotel and office buildings will be
required to meet City Code architectural standards as well.
Meeting of March 4, 2015 Page 11
Subject: Final Plat and Final Planned Unit Development
Parking
Residential: Parking is provided under the multiple-family residential buildings with some
limited surface parking. Phase I meets the required parking count and Phase II exceeds City
parking requirements by four spaces.
Office: The plan provides a surplus of parking for the proposed office towers in a 7-level ramp as
well as underground parking under the office buildings.
Hotel: The hotel site plan provides 118 spaces on-site. The minimum requirement, after a 10%
parking reduction for transit, is 203 spaces. This is a shortage of 85 parking spaces.
The applicant proposes to provide the remaining parking stalls required for the hotel off-site on
Outlot A and in the future office ramp. Off-site parking is allowed with a conditional use permit
(CUP), and in this case the PUD process incorporates and replaces the CUP process. Staff is
confident that the future ramps, at the size proposed, will accommodate the hotel’s parking
needs, and the overnight hotel guest parking would not conflict with the office parking demand.
Off-site parking is required to be protected by a permanent easement agreement.
Staff recommends the recording of a permanent parking agreement be recorded against Outlot A
in favor of the hotel property as a condition of approval. Depending on the phasing of
development, an interim surface parking lot may be needed on the office site (Outlot A) for the
hotel use. A parking agreement has been submitted to the City for administrative review and
approval.
Access
The plan provides three driveways onto Utica Avenue and two driveways onto Wayzata
Boulevard, plus the existing Lilac Drive (private) access.
On Utica, a uniquely landscaped entrance is provided between the residential buildings. The
plans refer to it as a “woonorf.’ It is designed to be an attractive and pedestrian-friendly space
that accommodates slow vehicle traffic. This area would provide access to both of the residential
buildings’ parking garages and main entrances. The main driveway to the future office parking
ramp is between the two office buildings. Another third entrance/exit is provided on the south
side of the office ramp and has connections to both Utica Avenue and Lilac Drive.
There is one more entrance to the office parking ramp on the northeast corner of the site. It
connects to a surface parking lot and then follows the drive aisle to the hotel parking lot.
There are two driveways proposed onto Wayzata Blvd from the hotel site. These two driveways
serve the proposed hotel parking lot. The southern driveway also provides a connection, through
a drive aisle and additional surface parking, to a secondary entrance to the parking ramp.
Loading/Service Areas
The plan proposes to have a shared service court for the hotel and residential buildings. It is
screened from view from the streets and central gathering space. Service vehicles would enter
at this location to access the shared service area for the hotel and residential buildings (service
Meeting of March 4, 2015 Page 12
Subject: Final Plat and Final Planned Unit Development
vehicles would exit through the hotel driveway to Wayzata Boulevard). Auto-turn maps
submitted to staff indicate that garbage trucks, panel trucks and fire apparatus can maneuver into
the court. There is also enough room for two service vehicles to be parked side by side in the
truck court.
The number and size of loading areas for the office meet City Code requirements. The
loading/service areas would be screened view of public streets by the office buildings, parking
ramps, and site landscaping. The loading areas are located between the buildings and the
parking ramps.
Landscaping
The landscape plan indicates 101 new trees and over 10,000 square feet of shrub and perennial
beds and native prairie plantings. The project exceeds the City’s minimum tree replacement
calculations by providing 598 caliper inches of trees when 382 caliper inches are required. This
is in addition to a proposed 77 deciduous trees in the boulevards and landscaped median of the
reconstructed Utica Avenue.
The landscaping ordinance would require an unrealistic 1,183 trees to be planted based on the
development density. The plan provides 245 trees (90 over-story trees). This development relies
upon the alternative landscaping provisions of the zoning code.
The plan provides a number of alternative landscaping elements. Most significantly, the 0.8 acre
gathering space on Lot 1 provides a large lawn area, paths for people to walk or bike along, child
play structures (climbing boulders), outdoor seating, landscape water feature, and native prairie
planting area. This area will also host public artwork funded by the developer per the
redevelopment agreement. The phase I and II residential buildings include rooftop patios with a
number of amenities including pools, outdoor seating, outdoor fireplace, etc. Also, a private at-
grade dog run will be provided east of the phase II residential.
Additional landscaping details must be provided for the future hotel and office sites when those
phases proceed through a PUD major amendment process.
Signage
A sign plan was not submitted for review. Entry monuments of some kind are anticipate on the
east and west ends of the central gathering space. Signs will require permits and must comply
with the office zoning district standards.
Utilities
All small utilities will be placed underground. This includes utilities service structures, such as
electrical boxes. There must be close coordination with small utility companies on the
placement, screening and burying of these structures to maintain the high aesthetic quality of the
streetscape and development. Per the redevelopment agreement, buildings will also provide the
necessary infrastructure to take advantage of fiber-optic service lines in the vicinity of the
development.

PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD) OBJECTIVES
The Central Park West plan includes certain modifications from the Office zoning district
standards. The zoning code requires that applicants for a Planned Unit Development
demonstrate how the proposal will “enhance, support, and further the following objectives”:
1. Provide for integrated pedestrian facilities to and within the project:
The overall West End Redevelopment extended the existing street grid, incorporating the
layout of 16th Street and Utica Avenue and augmenting the grid with additional private roads
and pedestrian corridors. Sidewalks are provided along all streets. To further improve
pedestrian connections, Central Park West proposes a public pedestrian and bike connection
through the site.
2. Enhance linkages to mass transit facilities:
At the current time, the development site is served by three Metro Transit routes: the 9, 604
and 649. Route 9 is a “frequently operating transit line” under the existing Zoning Code and
Metro Transit may increase the frequency and modify the routes following the construction
of the first few phases of development.
3. Incorporate implementation of travel demand management strategies as part of the PUD.
The St. Louis Park-Golden Valley joint task force approved a traffic demand management
plan for the development in 2008. The purpose of a travel demand management plan is to
spread the number of automobile trips throughout the day and encourage alternative modes to
the single occupancy vehicle trips, reducing the negative impacts that occur during peak
travel times. An updated TDM plan has been submitted that reflects the changes to the site
plan and will be includes as an Official Exhibit to the PUD.
4. Provide public plazas and designed outdoor recreation area which exceeds minimum chapter
requirements:
Central Park West provides 16% of the gross building area for designed outdoor recreation
area (DORA). The majority of the DORA is provided in Outlot A, but the individual Lots
will also include DORA. For example, the residential buildings include rooftop pool decks
on the second floor, similar to the Flats at West End and Millennium at West End
developments.
5. Provide a high degree of aesthetics through overall design and display of public art:
The site landscaping and features will include enhanced gathering spaces, streetscape
elements, upscale buildings, and will incorporate public art. The specifics of the public art
elements will be explored with some level of public involvement and a process led by the
City.
PUD MODIFICATIONS
The PUD includes the conditional use permits required for the office towers (exceed intensity
classification 6). The developer requests the following PUD modifications:

Subject: Final Plat and Final Planned Unit Development
Setbacks:
Buildings do not have to be set back from the property line in a PUD. All the buildings in The
West End Redevelopment are located near the road right-of-way to achieve an urban image.
Generally, the Central Park West buildings are at least ten feet from the property lines. In some
cases the foundations of the buildings and underground parking will abut side property lines.
Also, there are setbacks required between residential buildings and between the hotel and
residential buildings in the Office zoning district.
A blanket waiver from the Office district building setback requirements is necessary for the
development to proceed.
Height:
Lot 3 modification from the Office district height restriction near residential uses from 45 feet to
66 feet tall.
Residential Density:
Lot 1 modification from 50 dwelling units per acre to 85.4 units per acre.
Lot 2 modification from 50 dwelling units per acre to 98.8 units per acre.
Floor Area Ratio:
Lot 1 floor area ratio modification from 1.5 to 2.09.
Lot 2 floor area ratio modification from 1.5 to 2.39.

To: Sean Walther, City of St. Louis Park
From: Jessica Laabs, Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. (651-643-0437)
Subject: West End AUAR Analysis Update – DLC Residential proposal
PURPOSE OF MEMO
This memo summarizes results of sanitary sewer, water use, and traffic analyses for the purposes of
evaluating a development proposal from DLC Residential as part of the overall West End
Development. This proposal would change the land use from what was included in the Alternative
Urban Areawide Review (AUAR) completed under state environmental regulations for the West End
development. Results of the analyses were compared to the thresholds established in the 2007
AUAR and 2013 AUAR Update to ensure the proposed development is in conformance with the
AUAR and would not incur additional impacts or require additional mitigation measures.
ASSUMPTIONS
Analyses were compared to the 2007 AUAR and the 2013 AUAR Update, specifically:
2007 AUAR/2013 AUAR Update Scenario 1
1.0 million square feet (SF) of office space
400,000 SF of retail space
250 condo units
The AUAR studied multiple scenarios with varying levels and types of development, but Scenario 1
most closely represents the actual plans for the site and has been consistently used as a comparison
in other analyses. Since 2007, and even since 2013, some of the planned development has changed.
Most notably, planned condos were replaced with apartment units (The Flats at West End), and
additional apartments are under construction or planned for construction on the former Chili’s and
Olive Garden sites. Therefore, the existing condition or baseline includes current restaurant, retail,
grocery, theater, 2nd story office, and apartments (453 total: 119 apartment units for the Flats at West
End and 334 apartment units under construction or planned for the Chili’s and Olive Garden sites).
The total capacity of the City of St. Louis Park’s water system is also used as a baseline for
estimating utility impact. The baseline condition incorporates removal of the Novartis/Nestle facility in
April 2013 and adds in recently planned reuse of the facility.
With these existing conditions incorporated, an updated analysis was completed for the following
scenario (as confirmed by the City of St. Louis Park and DLC Residential).
Page 2
kimley-horn.com 2550 University Avenue West, Suite 238N, St. Paul, MN 55114 651 645 4197
Revised Scenario 1A
The bullets highlighted in gray represent changes in land use and densities and were incorporated
into the analysis. For the purpose of this analysis, the high end of any range of development was
used (i.e., 706,706 SF of office, 400 apartment units, and 200 hotel rooms).
Existing uses (restaurant, retail, grocery, theater, 2nd story office, apartments)
Two 9- to 11-story office buildings with a combined total of approximately 578,000 to 706,706
SF of Class A office space
Two 6-story residential apartment buildings totaling up to 400 units
A 6-story, limited service hotel with 150 to 200 rooms
A structured parking ramp tucked alongside the southbound ramp from I-394 to Hwy 100
A linear green space providing pedestrian and bicycle connections from 16th Street through
the middle of the site to Golden Valley (publicly accessible but privately owned)
A circular transit bus turnaround at 16th Street and Utica Ave
Rebuild of the northern portion of Utica Avenue with a boulevard in the middle to match the
current boulevard south of 16th Street
SANITARY SEWER ANALYSIS
Sanitary sewer use is not anticipated to be a limiting factor to development. As noted, the baseline
condition has been adjusted to reflect removal of the Novartis/Nestle facility and the addition of recent
planned redevelopment for that site. Sanitary use generated by the full buildout of the development
falls beneath the thresholds identified in the AUAR and within the available capacity of the current
MCES interceptor (7.4 million gallons per day (MGD)). See Table 1. The Metropolitan Council is also
in the process of designing improvements to the current sanitary sewer system that are anticipated to
increase the system capacity by 5 MGD (to 12.4 MGD total capacity). Construction of the sewer
improvements are anticipated to be complete in 2015.

WATER USE ANALYSIS
Water use could remain a limiting factor for the revised scenario. At 92.68 percent use of the system,
the proposed development would result in less water use than what was identified in the original
AUAR. However, as stated in the original AUAR, it is the City’s desire to remain under a 90 percent
threshold. To remain within 90 percent capacity, additional mitigation measures or adjustments to
development would be necessary.

Capacity Available (post-construction) (MGD) 0.802 0.975
Percent Total System Utilized 93.98% 92.68%
TRAFFIC ANALYSIS
Under the revised scenario, AUAR thresholds are exceeded in the AM peak hour (outbound
movement)1 by 40 trips (Table 3). This translates to approximately one vehicle every 90 seconds.

Estimated Trips Under Current Scenario 1,039 568 1,050 1,486
AUAR Trip Generation Limits 1,320 528 1,167 1,883
Mitigation measures identified in the AUAR were designed to accommodate the heaviest traffic
period, which is the PM peak outbound as illustrated in Table 3. The traffic mitigation that has already
been implemented for the West End development accommodates the PM peak. As illustrated in the
table, the AM peak outbound movement is much lower than the PM peak. Therefore, it is unlikely that
this exceedance in the AM peak hour will present a capacity issue or require additional
mitigation. The mitigation measures implemented in previous phases of development already provide
the capacity needed. Traffic is not anticipated to be a limiting factor to the proposed development.
A more detailed summary of traffic is provided in Table 4.

SUMMARY
Sanitary sewer usage generated by the revised scenario can be accommodated within the limits
established in the original AUAR. No additional mitigation is needed.
Water use is anticipated to be under the AUAR thresholds for the revised scenario. However, the
City’s preferred 90 percent total system use would be exceeded. Additional mitigation measures or
adjustments may be required.
Traffic generated by the revised scenario is beneath the limits established in the original AUAR with
the exception of AM peak (outbound) volumes. No additional mitigation measures or adjustments are
anticipated at this time because the AM peak is accommodated in the capacity of the transportation
system, which was designed to accommodate the higher PM peak volumes.

INTRODUCTION
This document serves as the Travel Demand Management (TDM) Plan for the Central Park West
Site within the West End Redevelopment located in the southwest quadrant of I-394 and TH
100 (Figure 1). As expressed in this document, DLC Residential is committed to applying this
TDM Plan to the proposed residential, hotel, and office buildings.
The cities of St. Louis Park and Golden Valley have established an overlay zoning district and a
joint task force to address congestion mitigation strategies. The Task Force reviews Travel
Demand Management (TDM) Plans for development in the established I-394 overlay zoning
district. The Central Park West West End Redevelopment site lies within Zone A of the overlay
district (City of St. Louis Park Code, Article IV, Sections 36-321 through 36-330).
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Central Park West project consists of approximately 13.5 acres of new development on the
site of previously razed office buildings. The Cities of Golden Valley and St. Louis Park each have
jurisdiction within the site. The Central Park West Development will consist of a 199 unit
apartment building, a 164 unit apartment building, an up to 150 room hotel, and up to 706,706
square feet of office space in two new office buildings. Construction of the first apartment
building is anticipated to begin in spring 2015. Construction of the remaining residential, hotel,
and office buildings will be phased with all construction anticipated to be completed by 2020.
EXISTING CONDITIONS AND ALTERNATIVE TRANSIT OPPORTUNITIES
Pedestrian and Bicycle
The Central Park West development Site currently contains some sidewalk infrastructure along the
south side of Wayzata Boulevard and the west side of Utica Avenue. The land on the proposed
development is currently vacant and contains informal gravel lots off of unofficial curb cuts, old
bituminous parking lots for the razed office buildings, and other vacant land. Utica Avenue and Wayzata
Boulevard currently contain no dedicated bicycle infrastructure. However, the site is located a short
distance from the Cedar Lake Trail, a bicycle and pedestrian pathway that runs from downtown
Minneapolis to Chanhassen and other southwestern suburban communities. The Cedar Lake Trail carries
a significant amount of commuter and recreational bicyclists.
The Phase I area of the West End Development contains various pedestrian and bicycle amenities.
Sidewalks were constructed along both sides of West 16 th Street and West End Boulevard, as well as
adjoining sidewalks to the grocer tenant and the main passageway from West End Boulevard to Park
Place Boulevard. Some sidewalks are separated from the street by pervious green space, and others
contain various urban design elements like potters, benches, street lighting, waste receptacles, and
artistic bollards. Crosswalks are designated by various brick and stone material that differs from the
bituminous roadway. Sidewalk space is lacking on Duke Drive east of the main shopping street. Although
there is no designated bike lane infrastructure on the roadways, bike racks are located in front of the
grocery tenant and near other retail tenants throughout the development.
Bike racks and shower facilities are available at the Moneygram building and the 1600 Towers south of
the development for tenants who bike to work.
Transit
The area is currently served by several bus routes operated by Metro Transit. The routes that serve the
area are listed below:
·Route 9:The route 9 bus serves the site along Park Place Boulevard and Wayzata Boulevard, and
also has limited service along Highway 100. This local bus service connects to Cedar Lake Road
and travels west to County Road 73. It also provides service into Golden Valley to the north and
east of the TMP area, and moves into downtown Minneapolis. It continues through downtown
and terminates in south Minneapolis at the 46 th Street Blue Line LRT Station. Service is offered
seven days a week all year. Buses on this route run from approximately 5:00 AM to 1:00 AM
during the week. The route contains 15 to 20 minute headways during rush hour, 30 minute
headways midday and evenings, and 30 to 60 minute headways on the weekend.
·Route 604:The route 604 bus runs west from the Park Place/I-394 Park & Ride lot near the
Xenia-Park Place interchange down Wayzata Boulevard to the Louisiana Avenue Transit Center.
It then continues south on Louisiana Avenue through St. Louis Park to Excelsior Boulevard,
where it moves to and terminates at the Excelsior & Grand shopping district. Service is offered
Monday through Friday during rush hour and midday periods, and runs from 7:30 AM to 4:30
PM. The route operates approximately once per hour during the service time.
·Route 649:The route 649 bus loops along Wayzata Boulevard, Park Place Boulevard, Cedar Lake
Road and Louisiana Avenue and provides limited-stop service along I-394 into downtown
Minneapolis. Service is offered Monday through Friday during rush hour periods. It operates
from approximately 6:15 AM to 8:30 AM, and from 3:30 PM to 6:30PM. The route operates
every 30 minutes during the service time.
To encourage residents and visitors to utilize transit, expansion of existing routes – such as
offering the 649 route every day during the week – should occur to serve the site. Adding new
routes that run directly from the West End into downtown Minneapolis would also help
facilitate higher transit ridership to and from the development.
Surrounding Amenities
The Central Park West development Site is across the street from The Shops at West End, which contain
various types of restaurants, a movie theater, a Cub Foods grocery store, and other retail outlets. The
site is also within walking distance to several other stores and restaurants across Park Place Boulevard,
as well as an Olive Garden restaurant at the corner of Wayzata Boulevard and Utica Avenue. In addition,
the existing Moneygram building has a fitness center facility complete with showers and locker rooms
that is available to employees in the Moneygram and 1600 Tower buildings.
The site is also near newly finished and currently under construction apartment buildings north of 16 th
Street, as well as a Hilton-based Homewood Suites hotel.
IMPLEMENTATION OF REQUIRED ROAD IMPROVEMENTS
A number of roadway improvements were required by the AUAR and traffic study completed for the
Central Park West development. The approved project site plan resulted in a refinement of the
improvements needed and these are outlined in the developer’s agreement between the City of St.
Louis Park, the City of Golden Valley, and DLC Residential. The majority of the required improvements
will be constructed between 2015 and 2020. As a result of these improvements being implemented, the
intersections in and around the project are expected to operate at acceptable (LOS D or better) levels of
service with the redevelopment.
Planned Road Improvements
Utica Avenue:
·Reconstruct existing section of Utica Avenue between Wayzata Boulevard and the Moneygram
building entrance. Build four total vehicular lanes with a center grassy median separating
northbound and southbound traffic.
·Construct a privately owned but publically accessible linear park past 16 th Street that will assist
pedestrians and bicyclists to access the various buildings.
These road and park improvements will be designed and constructed by DLC Residential.
Planned Trail and Sidewalk Improvements
In addition to road improvements a number of sidewalks will be added for pedestrian and bicycle
mobility. The Cities will:
·Construct the sidewalk on the south side of Wayzata Avenue
The developer has agreed to:
·Construct the linear park and fund all urban design elements within its grounds, including
decorative lighting, benches, trash receptacles, and general open space that will be accessible to
the public.
GOAL AND PERFORMANCE MEASURES
The overall goal of this plan is to reduce potential traffic congestion that will come with the proposed
development. This will occur by maintaining or improving acceptable levels of service on the roadways
within and adjacent to the project site, minimizing the projected number of trips through adjacent
intersections during the PM peak hour, and continuously encouraging alternative transportation use
within each component in the development. The general road improvements mixed with pedestrian
amenities, bicycle infrastructure, and better transit service will all assist in achieving the goal.
PROPOSED TMP STRATEGIES
DLC Residential in coordination with building managers will pursue the following objectives and
strategies to achieve its Traffic Management Plan.
Objectives and Strategies
TDM Friendly Design
·Mixed Use Development: A hotel and residential component have been proposed for the
subjected site in phase one, and the proposed office space will be constructed in a future phase.
The hotel and residential uses will help overall traffic flow because the two uses have
traditionally different traffic flow peak times during the day. The Shops at West End will also
encourage residents and hotel guests alike to stay nearby for shopping, entertainment, and
grocery needs. This will reduce the number of vehicular trips that leave the site in the PM peak
hour. Commuters to the office buildings in the future will counter traffic flows from residents,
thus decreasing the likelihood of concentrated roadway congestion.
·Residential Component: In the I-394 Overlay Zoning District language for both St. Louis Park and
Golden Valley, it is encouraged to develop residential uses within the corridor to reduce PM
peak traffic volumes in one direction. This development includes two separate 6-story
apartment buildings containing 363 dwelling units. Residents in these units will likely either be
reverse commuting from areas other than the West End vicinity in the afternoon, or will be
working in the nearby office buildings, thus helping reduce PM traffic congestion.
·Shared Parking: A mixed-use development of this type provides opportunities for shared parking
among different uses, reducing the overall number of parking spaces needed on-site. The fully
built out pedestrian infrastructure within the site will help site users access shops, hotels, and
residences by walking instead of driving. A parking structure in the east side of the property will
help alleviate office parking concerns and spillover, and will improve direct traffic flow into the
development.
·Designated Hotel Guest Parking: Hotel employees will be incited to park in areas that won’t
create parking lot bottlenecks, and will be encouraged to seek alternative commuting methods
like biking, walking, or taking transit. This will allow the hotel to hold sufficient parking spaces
for its guests, thus reducing internal vehicular trips (guests driving around to find a more
convenient parking space). The hotel lot will also have specific signage that will discourage non-
guests from parking in that area.
·Underground Residential Parking: The development plan calls for underground parking for
residents in the apartment buildings, thus reducing parking conflicts in surrounding hotel and
office parking areas.
·Delivery Truck Reductions: Deliveries via truck will be minimized due to the general lack of need
for shipments to the residential buildings. Delivery Trucks will be restricted to deliver between
10 pm and 8 am. Trucks needed for any use on the site will enter at the curb cut near the corner
of Wayzata Boulevard and Lilac Lane. Garbage collection will be carefully scheduled during the
day to minimize impacts on residents and public.
·Pedestrian Access: Sidewalks will be provided on both sides of Utica Avenue and on the south
side of Wayzata Boulevard. Sidewalks within the site include the multi-use “woonerf” space and
paved areas in the linear park. All sidewalks will have safe crossings at Utica Avenue so
residents, hotel guests, and hotel workers can walk to nearby shops and restaurants instead of
drive.
·Bicycle Access: Wayfinding signs will direct bicycle riders to ride south to the Cedar Lake Trail.
Bicycles will also be allowed within the “woonerf” and linear park space. Bicycle parking will be
included within Central Park West near both residential buildings and the hotel building. St.
Louis Park requires that bicycle parking spaces equal 10% of total vehicle parking spaces.
Approximately 477 bicycle spaces are planned to be placed within the site. Approximately 212
bicycle spaces will be installed the Phase 1 and 2 Residential Buildings, with the remaining 265
spaces installed for the Office. Additional required spaces can be provided if a need is identified.
Participate with Regional TDM Organizations to Provide Information on Transportation Alternatives
·Create an office Commuter Benefits Coordinator (CBC) position to coordinate with Metro Transit
and officials from trail network entities.
·Inform residential concierge workers about transportation alternatives, who will then be able to
notify residents about transit, biking, and walking options. Have concierge set up special
commuter challenges at certain times of the year to encourage residents to try non-vehicular
commutes.
·Inform hotel concierge workers about surrounding transportation amenities, who will then be
able to advise guests to walk – instead of drive – to entertainment.
·Display transit and trail maps in locations within both residential buildings, the hotel, and future
office buildings.
Support and Promote Bicycling and Walking as Alternatives
·Build and maintain pedestrian-friendly space within and alongside development site.
·Prioritize pedestrian movements over automobile movements at intersections by designating
crosswalks with different paving material and building pedestrian warning lights.
·Place bike wayfinding signs along Utica Avenue and within the linear park that direct bicyclists to
the Cedar Lake Trail.
·Actively display updated biking information, such as commuting tips and trail maps, in the
lobbies of each building.
·Add a fitness center and showers into one of the office buildings during the next development
phase. These amenities will be accessible to employees who wish to walk or bike to work.
Support and Promote Transit as an Alternative
·Encourage Metro Transit to increase frequency of existing service or add new direct service into
downtown Minneapolis from turnaround area.
·Concierges in the apartment buildings and the hotel will facilitate the sale of bus passes to
residents, and will provide detailed transit information to guests. The CBC will encourage office
tenants to use alternative commuting methods, and will sell bus passes to employees.
Support and Promote Carpooling and Vanpooling
·Have apartment concierge send surveys to residents to see if a potential carpool pairing would
be possible.
·Distribute carpool and vanpool service information to residents.
·Look into viability to add parking spaces for rideshare services, such as ZipCar or HourCar.
Monitoring
·Once apartment units are 75% occupied, send survey to residents to gather interest and supply
information about alternative transportation.
·Have apartment concierge send periodic, bi-annual surveys to residents to discover
transportation usage data.
·Evaluate effectiveness of strategies and modify the plan accordingly.
TDM IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
Developer(s) will be responsible to implement this plan upon completion of the Central Park West
development. These obligations will run with the land in the event that portions of the project are sold
to third parties. The steps to plan implementation are outlined below:
1)Apartment and hotel concierge employees will be trained to serve as transportation
coordinators and to follow plan implementation. These persons will coordinate with each other
and with the Commuter Benefits Coordinator (CBC) in the future office buildings.
2)Once the hotel is operational and the apartment buildings are 75% occupied, the concierges will
conduct a commuter survey to estimate participation in alternative modes of transportation.
3)The concierges will work with Metro Transit to inform all tenants regarding all alternative
transportation options available to them for commuting.
4)The concierges will continuously encourage guests and residents to utilize and walk to the
nearby entertainment, shopping, dining, and grocery tenants instead of drive to others.
5)After the City completes an updated traffic study of the area with the implemented road
improvements, DLC Residential, building concierges, and the CBC will meet with staff from the
City of St. Louis Park and the City of Golden Valley to determine if traffic is operating at
acceptable levels.
