Adjournment – 6:03 p.m. Study session The study session commenced at 6:10 p.m. 1. The commission members introduced themselves to one another. Due to COVID-19, this was this was their first in -person meeting in over one year. 2. Green Building Policy presentation – Emily Ziring, Sustainability Manager Ms. Ziring presented on the green building policy. She presented background and noted in 2018 the city council approved the climate action plan, which is being implemented now to achieve mid -term 2030 goals to stay on track for the community’s 2040 goals. She shared some examples of projects completed to date with the commission. She presented the current policy and proposed policy to the commission. 3 Commissioner Beneke asked about greenhouse gas emissions. Ms. Ziring stated they will work to neutralize e missions, to offset them, however not getting rid of all gas emissions. Commissioner Beneke asked if that will be offset by credits. Ms. Ziring stated yes, the hope is to get buildings as energy efficient as possible. She added while they have goals for net zero buildings, that is very expensive at this point, but this will get the city close to its goal. Commissioner Kraft asked if the proposed overlay is more stringent than the standards in the third -party rating systems. Ms. Ziring stated the overlay supersedes whatever is in the third -party requirements and is stricter in most cases. Commissioner Tift asked if fees would be incurred by developers or the city. Ms. Ziring stated by the developer. He also asked if the city has data that the new policy will be more effective. Ms. Ziring stated the new policy will be more stringent and would result in more energy efficient buildings and more buildings using renewable energy sources. Chair Eckholm asked if it is necessary to offer fossil fuel options vs. battery storage systems. Ms. Ziring stated she would have to research this before responding, but her initial expectation is that natural gas or diesel generators would need to be part of the support to electric systems. One consideration about diesel versus natural gas was how far away the generators are manufactured. Commissioner Beneke asked why the city could not mandate, for example, solar panel installation. Mr. Walther responded that the city cannot adopt a regulation that is stricter than the State Energy Code. The city’s approach is to fold these requirements into requests that developers opt into voluntarily, such as requesting financial assistance, requesting a planned unit development, or requesting density bonuses. The city ties the city’s goals to these optional requests that open the opportunity to negotiate with an applicant and advance the city’s highest priorities in ex change for flexibility or financial support of a development. The city is also advocating for changes to State law to allow cities to adopt more effective stretch energy codes. Chair Eckholm asked if the green building policy apply across the board or only for a TIF or PUD project. Mr. Walther stated if the development receives TIF, or a PUD or a density bonus in the vertical mixed -use district , and the building is of a certain size, the green building policy applies. It does not apply to any other construction. Commissioner Beneke asked about net-zero energy. Ms. Ziring stated they will work to make every building as energy efficient as possible, with no natural gas, and solar power. Ms. Ziring shared other strategies and programs the city has to help achieve our mid- term goals. She shared some ways the city has reviewed the policy through a racial equity lens. 4 3. Wooddale Station Development Update – Ms. Monson presented the report. Commissioner Kraft asked about retail parking access. Ms. Monson stated at 36th Street a left-hand turn can be made into the parking lot. Commissioner Wilson asked if staff is concerned about congestion in the area. Ms. Monson stated no, adding the city is working on updated plans for 36th Street with east and west lane changes, and adding bike lanes and sidewalks, so folks can get to the site without driving ultimately. M r. Walther stated the city has been mindful of traffic congestion in the area and noted there were extensive traffic studies done in the area as well as significant infrast ructure investments. Commissioner Wilson asked about the potential timeline of the project. Ms. Walther stated applications will be at the end of the year or beginning of 2022 and then next spring or summer the project will being. Commissioner Beneke asked what type of retail and commercial space will be included. Ms. Monson stated it will likely be smaller retail spaces, similar to the Nolan Mains development in Edina. Mr. Walther added this project proposed much more commercial space than the other development proposals the city received. Commissioner Tift asked how many units will be affordable. Ms. Monson stated 10% at 60% AMI and 10% at 50% AMI, which well exceeds the requirements. This is 48 affordable units within the project. 4. Council Chambers Room Review – Mr. Walther went over elements of the room with commissioners related to safety and security. He also noted recent changes to the State ’s open meeting law and how they apply to hybrid meetings for the commission. 5.

Owner: Wat Promwachirayan Temple Review Deadline: 60 days: September 3, 2021 120 days: November 2, 2021 Recommended motions: Chair to open public hearing, take testimony, and close the public hearing. Motion to recommend approval of the conditional use permit amendment subject to the conditions recommended by staff. Summary of request: Wat Promwachirayan Temple requests an amendment to an existing conditional use permit (CUP) to allow a building addition and minor improvements to the existing building. Site information: Site area (acres): 3.85 Current use: religious assembly Surrounding land uses: North: multiple -family residence East: Highway 100 South: single -family residence West: single family residence Beth El Synagogue Benilde- St.Margaret’s Pavilion Meditation Hall Vernan Avenue Utica Avenue 26th Street West 26th Street West Proposed addition Monk offices 7 Regular meeting meeting of August 4, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Title: Wat Promwachirayan (Wat Prom) conditional use permit amendment Current 2040 land use guidance Current zoning CIV - civic R-1 single -family residence Floodplain Background: The building was constructed in 1968 as a church and was occupied by Wat Prom in 2017. Throughout this time the site operated as a religious institution without a CUP. On September 17, 2018 city council approved a conditional use permit to allow the existing religious institution use ; a parking lot expansion; and export of more than 400 cu bic yards of materials. At the time Wat Prom anticipate d three phases of development: Phase 1 – parking lot and stormwater improvements beginning fall 2018. Phase 2 – construct new service hall in approximately 2028. Phase 3 – construct new meditation hall in approximately 2038. The parking lot expansion was completed, but the reconstruction of the existing parking lot and some of the more significant stormwater improvements were able to be delayed until later phase s proceed. Each future phase will need to meet code requirements existing at the time each phase is proposed to be constructed. Each phase will be processed as a major amendment to the conditional use permit, which will require a neighborhood meeting, public hearing before the planning commission, and action by the city council. To provide additional context and more details on these potential future phases, please visit the hyperlink to the September 17, 2018 city council staff report provided at the end of this report. Meditation Hall Orientation Hall Service Hall 8 Regular meeting meeting of August 4, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Title: Wat Promwachirayan (Wat Prom) conditional use permit amendment Present considerations: The applicant requests an amendment to the conditional use permit to construct the following improvements: • Build an addition on the north side of the pavilion for food preparation and storage for festivals and special events. Wat Prom regularly sets up temporary tents in this area during festivals and special events. • Relocate an existing entrance and stair on the meditation hall. • Add a water service line connection to the public water main to serve a new fire suppression system to be installed in the existing building and proposed addition. • Renovate the interior of the existin g building, including new accessible bathrooms and a new commercial kitchen. The proposed building addition requires an amendment to the CUP. This project is not one of the future phases previously discussed with planning commission and city council and does not preclude those future phases which are still contemplated . The building addition will meet the architectural design standards in the zoning code. As part of the project and in order to match the proposed architectural materials of the building addition, parts of the existing buildings will be repainted to match the colors of the addition. No changes to the parking lots, sidewalks, site access, landscaping, outdoor lighting or stormwater management are proposed as part of this project. The applicant hopes to start construction in fall 2021 and complete the project by May 2022. Floodplain: According to Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood hazard maps and thus the city zoning map, the property lies partially within the special flood hazard zone. In 2018, Wat Prom completed a Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA) process that demonstrated the property is not within the floodplain. Zoning analysis: The following is an analysis of the criteria considered for a conditional use permit for a place of worship. The property is zoned R-1 Single -Family Residence, and a Thai Buddhist Temple (Religious Institution) is allowed by conditional use permit with the following conditions: 1. All buildings shall be located at least 30 feet from any lot line of a lot in an R district. All existing and proposed buildings exceed 30 feet from a lot line of a property located in an R district. This condition is met. 2. An off-street passenger loading area shall be provided in order to maintain vehicular and pedestrian safety. The existing parking lot provides an off-street passenger loading area. This condition is met. 3. Outdoor recreational and play areas shall be located at least 25 feet from any lot in an R district. No changes are proposed to outdoor recreation area. This condition is met. 4. Access shall be to a roadway identified in the comprehensive plan as a collector or arterial or shall be otherwise located so that access can be provided without generating significant traffic on local residential streets. The property has access to Utica Avenue, which is a service road for Highway 100. This condition is met. The project must also meet the following general requirements for conditional use permits. 9 Regular meeting meeting of August 4, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Title: Wat Promwachirayan (Wat Prom) conditional use permit amendment 1. Consistency with city plans. The use of this property as a place of worship is consistent with and supportive of principles, goals, objectives, land use designations, redevelopment plans, neighborhood objectives, and implementation strategies of the comprehensive plan. The property is guided “Civic” which allows place of worship. 2. Nuisance. The project is not detrimental to the health, safety, morals and general welfare of the community as a whole. It will not have undue adverse impacts on the use and enjoyment of properties, existing and anticipated traffic conditions, parking facilities on adjacent streets, and values of properties in close proximity to the conditional use. The property has been used as a place of worship since it was constructed in 1968. 3. Compliance with code. The project is consistent with the regulations, intent and purpose of City Code and the zoning district in which the conditional use is located. 4. Consistency with service capacity. It will not have undue adverse impacts on governmental facilities, services or improvements which are either existing or proposed. Services will not be impacted by the building addition. 5. Site design. The project plans are consistent with the design and other requirements of site and landscape plans prepared by or under the direction of a professional landscape architect or civil engineer registered in the state and adopted as part of the conditions imposed on the use by the city council. The site design meets the requirements for a place of worship. 6. Consistency with utilities. The project is consistent with all city stormwater, sanitary sewer and water plans. Public outreach: On July 26, 2021 representatives from Wat Prom met with five neighbors, the ward city councilmember, and police, fire and community development staff members to discuss parking and traffic issues around festivals and events site. This meeting was related to current conditions at the site rather than directly related to the current application. Meeting attendees agreed on installing temporary no parking sign s near street corners during big events, with the option of implementing more measures in the future if necessary. The applicant held an on-site neighborhood meeting on July 27, 2021. Three members of the public attended in addition to the project team, representatives of the temple, city staff and Ward Councilmember Rog. No one at the meeting voiced opposition to the project. Attendees discussed the function of the addition, project financing, construction timeline and how this project relates to the larger future phases. All property owners within 350 feet of the property were mailed notices of the neighborhood meeting and the public hearing. A legal notice was published in the official newspaper regarding the public hearing. Project and meeting information was shared through city social media accounts and the city website. A “proposed development” sign with contact information was posted on the property. At the time of this report staff have received one email regarding the project which is attached for commissioners’ review . Next steps: The council is scheduled to consider the CUP amendment application on August 16, 2021. 10 Regular meeting meeting of August 4, 2021 (Item No. 3a) Title: Wat Promwachirayan (Wat Prom) conditional use permit amendment Recommendations: Staff recommend approval of the amendment to the conditional use permit to operate a religious institution at 2544 Highway 100, subject to the following conditions: 1.

July 27, 2021 Greetings, Jacquelyn Kramer: This writing was originally drafted as an Objection to the above-referenced Application for an Amendment to a “CUP.” That Objection has been paused as a result of a meeting that occurred yesterday, July 26, 2021 with Council Members Rog and Kraft, City staff, and representatives of Wat Thai of MN. That meeting discussed and tried to forge a plan to cure the traffic and parking problems cited below. This plan is gradual, starting first with temporary event signage concentrating on de-crowding the parking on intersection corners and educating event visitors about parking their vehicles across Highway 100 at the Beth El Synagogue parking lot. Possible future actions could entail the installation of permanent signage to limit street parking on one side of some public streets, or other undefined actions. This objection pause is based on hope that this plan actually works. Circumstances may change and this plan may not bear fruit. The following text is offered to guide the City staff and City Councils of the future in the event the traffic congestion and parking conditions persist. This is a request made to the St. Louis Park Planning Commission and City Council that the “Application For An Amendment to a Conditional Use Permit” made by Wat Promwachirayan Temple (Wat Thai of MN) be denied or delayed until the Applicant provides and implements a detailed Plan to address the excessive and unwanted traffic and the related parking space problems bearing on the streets and domiciles located on Utica, Vernon, and Webster Avenues located north of Minnetonka Blvd and south of the BN Railroad tracks, and 28th, 27th, 26th, and 25th½ Streets located west of Highway 100, and east of Xenwood Avenue (the “neighborhood”). The actual size of the impacted neighborhood is elastic, depending on the amount of traffic and needed parking space. The Plan must conform to both the traffic and parking conditions enjoyed by the neighborhood that prevailed prior to the time that Applicant acquired the Property cited above, and to all other single-family detached residential neighborhoods located within the City of St. Louis Park. Approving the Application, without taking curative measures, will bring in more traffic and intensify the problem. Judging by postings on Nextdoor, it seems that people from outside this defined neighborhood are unaffected by these congestion and parking conditions, and they don’t fully understand the problems within this neighborhood. I’m certain that they wouldn’t want to suffer these traffic and parking conditions in their neighborhoods. This neighborhood was platted and developed in stages over roughly ninety years. Many of the houses are situated on small lots with single car garages, or with no garage. Today, almost every household has two or more cars and the only place to park most of those cars is on the public streets. The extreme traffic from the Applicant’s reoccurring and frequent “festivals” crowds out and denies needed street and parking space for the neighborhood residents and can impair the timely arrival of urgently needed ambulances and firetrucks. 29 2 Perhaps the Applicant didn’t realize how much the aged roadway infrastructure would limit their use of the site. The site suffers from terribly inadequate ingress, egress, and parking opportunities. Unfortunately, improving the infrastructure is not feasible. The Property’s former owner had food-related activities that were only incidental to their other church functions, and were not profit or revenue-related. In contrast, it seems the Applicant’s site use is more focused on fundraising and money-making by means of selling food and various kinds of merchandise. Other for-profit food and merchandise vendors have Commercial site locations and infrastructures more suitable to their purposes, as well as for their users or visitors. This writing elaborates a current and reoccurring problem and predicts that it will intensify unless curative measures are taken. It does not offer curative measures. It seeks help and direction from the Commission, the Council, and from others to find a cure so as to make this neighborhood whole, consistent with other residential neighborhoods in St. Louis Park. I want to make it clear that my concern is limited to undesirable traffic congestion and parking problems. I have no concern as it relates to Thai people, their culture or their beliefs, or that of the festival’s sponsors or their visitors. In fact, it is my opinion that the people who come to the festivals behave in an exemplary manner. They are joyful and respectful. They don’t litter. They are not loud. Many of them come as families with small children that would delight any observer, and they are welcome in our neighborhood. Respectfully, Dale Anderson 2700 Vernon Ave. South St. Louis Park, MN 55416 30 Planning commission: Study session Meeting date: August 4, 2021 Study session item: 1 1 Parking requirements update Recommended motion: None at this time. Provide input on staff recommendations for changes to parking requirements in the zoning ordinance. Summary of request: The planning commission work plan includes a review and modification of parking requirements in the zoning code. Background: Section 36-361 regulates off -street parking, paved areas and loading spaces. The purpose of the parking requirements, as stated in the code, is to prevent congestion on public rights -of-way for the safety and welfare of the public. The regulations are created through analysis of the associated land use intensity, duration, time and style and result in design requirements and standards for such facilities. Most of these parking standards have not been updated in several years. Staff ’s focus is on right sizing the city’s parking requirements. Essentially, we are looking at areas where we can reduce parking requirements to support efficient, sustainable and affordable growth. Parking is expensive and has many indirect costs. These policies can help reduce costs for housing and business, reduce environmental impacts and make better use of land . It is one component of implementing the goals expressed in the St. Louis Park 2040 comprehensive plan, including climate action , inclusionary housing, race equity, livability , health and mobility . Present considerations: Staff are currently exploring revisions to several parts of Section 36- 361: 1. Reducing parking requirements for multi-family residential parking requirements 2. Adding restaurant classification s to better define parking demand and requirements 3. Amending electric vehicle supply e quipment requirements 4. Revising other miscellaneous provisions Multi -family residential parking. Several recent residential developments have sought parking reductions through planned unit development (PUD) requests. Three - and four-bedroom units typically rent to families, rather than adult roommates who may potentially each own a vehicle . Staff and planning commission have recommended, and city council has approved, reductions to the parking requirements for three- and four-bedroom units in several recent developments, from three or four spaces down to two. Parking requirements have not yet been updated for developments occurring within the influence area of light rail station (LRT) stations. The proximity of high frequency transit results in lower parking demands than in other areas of the city. This is true for good bus service and it is even more impactful on fixed transit lines such as LRT. The city has granted parking reductions to approved projects near future LRT stations through the PUD process, including the PLACE Via Sol and Beltline Residences. Additionally, the city has several goals regarding LRT areas, parking and vehicular use. The city seeks to promote walkability around the stations that allows for car-free living and access via 31 Regular meeting meeting of August 4, 2021 (Item No. 1) Title: Parking requirements update bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure. There are significant positive environmental impacts to reducing the number of vehicles in our city. Reducing the number of required parking stalls, both in LRT station areas and throughout the city, will result in financial savings for developers and property owners; these savings may be passed down to renters and tenants. Also, limiting parking incentivizes other modes of mobility. Staff recommend the following changes to in parking requirements for multi-family residential uses throughout the city and specifically in LRT station areas: Zoning requirements Number of stalls per bedroom LRT Station area (1/2 mile) Current zoning Revised minimum 70% of the revised zoning minimum Studio 1 1 One -bedroom 1 1 Two-bedroom 2 1.5 Three -bedroom 3 2 Four-bedroom 4 2 Restaurant classifications and required parking. Table 36-361(a) in Section 36-361 uses the following categories for restaurants when determining parking requirements: Use Number of parking spaces Coffee shop One space per 200 sq. ft. floor area Food service/bakery One space per 25 sq. ft. customer floor area Restaurant One space per 60 sq. ft. floor area The restaurant land use type assumes a sit-down, low-turnover establishment. The current code does not differentiate between different types of restaurants. Some types of casual food establishments have more turnover and lower parking needs than more formal re staurants. The latest Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) Parking Generation Manual separates restaurant uses into several subcategories: • Restaurant, fast casual: sit-down restaurant with no (or very limited) waitstaff or table service. Customers typically order off a menu board, pay for food before the food is prepared and seat themselves. Most patrons eat their meal within the restaurant, but a significant portion of the restaurant sales are carry-out orders. The restaurants typically serve lunch and dinner; some serve breakfast. A typical duration of stay for an eat-in customer is 40 minutes or less. • Restaurant, low -turnover (sit-down): Sit-down eating establishments with a typical duration stay of at least 60 minutes. These restaurants may allow or require reservations. Patrons commonly wait to be seated, are served by wait staff, order from a menu, and pay after the meal. Lounge or bar facilities may be accessory uses; such uses would increase the parking demand of the establishment. • Restaurant, high-turnover (sit-down): Sit-down eating establishments with a typical duration stay of 60 minutes or less. These restaurants are usually moderately-priced and sometimes referred to as “family” or “casual” restaurants. They usually do not take reservations. Patrons commonly wait to be seated, are served by wait staff, order from 32 Regular meeting meeting of August 4, 2021 (Item No. 1) Title: Parking requirements update a menu, and pay after the meal. Lounge or bar facilities may be accessory uses; such uses would increase the parking demand of the establishment. • Restaurant, fast-food with or without drive-through window (2 subcategories): This restaurant type features large carry-out clientele, long hours of service , and high turnover rate for eat-in customers (less than 30 minutes). There is no table service , and customers typically order from a menu board and pay before receiving the meal. • Coffee shop, with or without drive-through window (2 subcategories): Single tenant food establishment that primarily sells coffee and coffee-related accessories. They may also sell other refreshment items such as bagels, muffins, sandwiches, salads, and other hot and cold beverages. Coffee shops typically long store hours with early morning opening. Table service is not provided. The ITE Parking Generation Manual illustrates the different levels of parking demand for each restaurant subcategory. Broadly speaking: • Low -turnover sit-down restaurants require the most parking. • Fast casual restaurants require about half the amount of parking as low -turnover sit- down restaurants. • High-turnover sit -down restaurants and fast-food restaurants require greater parking than fast casual restaurants, but less parking than low-turnover sit-down restaurants. • Coffee shops require the least amount of parking, especially when the use includes a drive -through window. These restaurant types also have different peak times of day: Category Peak time Monday-Friday Saturday Sunday Fast casual 12-1 pm 2 pm; 6 pm - Low turnover sit-down 7-8 pm 7-9 pm - High turnover sit-down 12-1 pm; 6-8 pm 10-12 pm; 6-9 pm 10-12 pm; 5-6 pm Fast food, no drive - through 11-1 pm - - Fast food with drive- through 12-1 pm 12-2 pm 12-3 pm Coffee shop, no drive - through 7-8 am 7-8 am - Coffee shop with drive - through 8-10 am 8 am; 11 am - Staff recommend the creation of subcategories of restaurant uses to more accurately calculate the parking demand, and adjust the city’s minimum parking requirements, for the different types of establishments. The exact number of required parking stalls for each subcategory of restaurant is yet to be determined. Outdoor seating. Outdoor seating and service of food and beverages is permitted as an accessory use in the C-1, C -2, O, BP, IP, MX-1, an d MX-2 zoning districts with certain conditions. This extra outdoor seating space is essentially “free” with respect to calculating parking 33 Regular meeting meeting of August 4, 2021 (Item No. 1) Title: Parking requirements update requirements provided the outdoor seating area does not exceed 500 square feet or ten percent of the gross floor are a of the principal use, whichever is less. When the outdoor seating expands beyond that size, parking is required at the same rate as the principal use for that portion of outdoor seating area in excess of 500 square feet or ten percent of the gross building area, whichever is less. Loosening this restriction could allow restaurants more flexibility in creating outdoor dining areas and in meeting their overall parking requirements. Staff would like to discuss planning commission’s interest in amending this requirement. Electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE). The intent of Section 36-361(e) is to facilitate and encourage the use of electric vehicles, to expedite the establishment of a convenient, cost effective electric vehicle infrastructure, and establish minimum requirements for such infrastructure to serve both short and long-term parking needs. City council approved a zoning ordinance amendment requiring EVSE in new and reconstructed parking structures on January 22, 2019, and the ordinance went into effect on February 15, 2019. Since then, staff have sought feedback from property owners, developers, and electric vehicle users to monitor implementation of the EVSE requirements and determine if revisions are necessary. Staff have also rese arched industry best practices and EVSE requirements adopted in other municipalities since council approved this ordinance. This research has led to the following recommendations: • Increase the number of Level 2 stations required, as Level 1 stations do not generally provide rapid enough charging for practical use especially as electric vehicle battery capacity has increased, and the cost for Level 2 stations has decreased. • Increase the number of stations required for residential and non-residential land uses. Charging station availability is a major factor for consumers in purchasing and using electric vehicles. • Ensure access for ADA accessible and guest parking to encourage usage. • Alter lan guage to allow more options for placement of stations in non-residential properties. • Remove language addressing usage fees. The city does not require usage fees and staff do not intend to enforce the usage fees of private entities. Staff have drafted the following changes to the amount of EVSE required. Proposed modifications to the zoning code are shown in red: Multi -family requirement based on number of parking spaces 14 or fewer Allowed 15-49 Increase from 5% to 10% of required parking spaces, 5% must be level 2 50+ All stations shall be Level 2 Access Access to stations for one handicapped accessible and one guest space Non-residential use requirement based on number of parking spaces 14 or fewer Allowed 15-49 Increase from 1 charging station to 2 charging stations 50+ Increase from 1% to 5% of parking spaces, all stations shall be Level 2 34 Regular meeting meeting of August 4, 2021 (Item No. 1) Title: Parking requirements update Miscellaneous revisions. Along with the larger revisions described above, staff would like to take this opportunity to clean up some language inconsistencies and other minor revisions in this section of the zoning code. These will be detailed another time. Next steps: Staff requests that you review the information provided in this staff report and provide feedback. The next steps will be determined by the breadth and depth of the feedback on the items listed above or other ideas that may be volunteered by the commission.
