Page 2 Economic development authority meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 3b) Title: EDA meeting minutes of September 16, 2024 6.Regular business a.EDA Resolution No. 24-16 and 24-17 to adopt 2025 HRA and EDA levies Ms. Cruver presented the staff report. She explained the policy considerations related to the EDA levy and HRA levy with an overall preliminary property tax levy payable in 2025 of $49,979,665, a 7.52% increase from 2024 which includes: •$48,598, 532 for core government services and debt payments (general and debt service levies) •$1,194,133 for housing projects and programs (HRA levy) •$187,000 for economic development projects and programs (HRA levy) Ms. Cruver noted that final levy approval will occur on Dec . 16, 2024. Commissioner Rog asked if the EDA levy was previously $500,000 per year. Ms. Cruver stated yes and last year it was adjusted up to $875,000 to fully cover staffing . Now staffing has been moved out of this fund and it will focus only on programs. Commissioner Rog asked if the EDA levy will remain stable at the $375 - $400,000 for the time being. Ms. Cruver stated yes, barring any large changes that will be the end of the work needed to stop the spenddown of the development fund. Commissioner Rog asked if the additional state funds are being calculated into the HRA levy fund, and if it will remain flat rather than fluid. Ms. Cruver stated the five-year financial direction projects a flat forecast for the HRA levy. There are many new revenues coming to the city and into housing, so staff will want to keep reassessing how fast this money will be added and used before the levy is increased in the future. Faith Riverstone, 9001 Stanlen Rd., stated she is concerned about the language of the EDA resolution and noted there is very broad-reaching language. She would prefer the language be less broad-reaching and just be to particular line items. She stated her intention to speak to her concern further in the city council meeting. Commissioner Budd noted she will support this motion. Commissioner Brausen stated the EDA and council have been working on this budget since May 2024 and staff has been working on it since February 2024. He added this is the result of many long hours by staff to figure out the resources needed to continue to provide the level of government service people in the city have come to expect. He added it’s thoughtful and makes sense to move some of the staff funding over to the general budget and he will support it. President Dumalag thanked staff for their work and added the report makes it clear the HRA and EDA levies are not for funding staff, but will allocate funds for projects and programs. She noted it is helpful to see the investment the city is making here.

Mayor Mohamed congratulated the Beth El community on their centennial and said “… personally growing up as a Muslim, I found great comfort in knowing that my Jewish neighbors, like me are also visible in their identities and proudly embrace and celebrate who they are.” Council Member Baudhuin shared his strong connections with Beth El since his childhood and congratulated Beth El on 100 years of work in the community. Council Member Rog stated Beth El is in her ward and noted she was able to give remarks there recently.

The motion passed 5-0 (Mayor Mohamed and Council Member Brausen absent). 6. Public hearings. a. MnDOT I-394 and Louisiana Avenue improvements – Ward 4 Ms. Heiser introduced MnDOT staff. Ms. Stromgren from MnDOT presented an overview of the project. Council Member Budd asked if the presentation referenced the 2023 congestion report. Ms. Stromgren stated that is correct. City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 4a) Page 4 Title: City council meeting minutes of September 9, 2024 Council Member Rog asked if the cost share is unique to St. Louis Park or if that is typical in other communities across the state. Ms. Heiser stated both Hennepin County and MnDOT have cost participation policies for signal construction at intersections with local streets. In this scenario, the agreements calls for each agency to pay for a portion of the signal costs based on the number of legs on their system. She stated this is a four-legged intersection and Louisiana Avenue is the responsibility of St. Louis Park, while the ramps are the responsibility of MnDOT, resulting in a 50/50 cost split. Council Member Baudhuin asked for clarification on pedestrian and bike safety at the intersection and requested more detail. Ms. Stromgren noted pedestrian improvements of sidewalks and ramps that were non-ADA compliant. She also noted the area where vehicles turning from Louisiana onto Highway 394 on higher-speed, “free right” turns, will be tightened to improve pedestrian safety. Mayor Pro Tem Farris opened the public hearing. Kathleen Beaushoof, 1631 Virginia Ave. S., asked for staff to present the visual diagram again, go through what is being proposed, and where they are including retaining walls. She asked if the bridge be wider over 394, and will there be more lanes of traffic. Ms. Beaushoof asked how many events there have been related to public comment, whether this the first one or have there been more. Ms. Keller stated staff will put these responses together on the website, but staff and council do not typically respond to questions during public hearings. Ms. Beaushoof asked how long the council has been aware of this project, how long they have studied it, and has it been going on for six months or a year. She also asked the opinion of each council member at the moment; whether they are planning to approve or deny. She stated this is city government at work. She stated a year ago, she read that MnDOT will not build new car traffic lanes and that people are being instructed to ride bikes and walk. Ms. Beaushoof asked how many lanes of traffic will be on Louisiana Avenue, noting right now there are two. She asked how wide they will be and noted her concern is that the city is divided four major roads – Highway 7, Highway 169, Highway 394, and Highway 100 – adding those are major roads. She stated with the Louisiana Avenue project which widens the road and cuts through neighborhoods, now we will have this project with Highway 394 and Louisiana Avenue, with another road perpendicular to Cedar Lake Road, and going through the city. She stated this is in a residential neighborhood and she opposes this. Joe Weyandt, 6801 Wayzata Blvd., stated he is small business owner on Wayzata Boulevard. He stated the presentation is unclear on the timeline – and how long the project’s duration will be. He asked will the road be closed and will customers be able to access businesses during construction. He stated August is the busiest time of the year for his business, and this presentation is very unclear what the impact will be on small businesses. Mayor Pro Tem Farris closed the public hearing. City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 4a) Page 5 Title: City council meeting minutes of September 9, 2024 Ms. Heiser clarified some details of the presentation. She stated the Louisiana Avenue construction project was approved by the council in February 2023. She stated Louisiana Avenue will be one lane in each direction and there will be no change to the number of lanes related to this project. She stated there is a roundabout being constructed at Louisiana and Cedar Lake Road and the street width will also be reduced to save mature trees on the street. She added there will be a sidewalk on the east side. Ms. Stromgren provided further detail on the quarter-mile additional lane being added to the outside of Highway 394. She showed the entrance ramp of Louisiana Avenue and pointed out the auxiliary lane to help with the continuity of lanes. Council Member Budd asked what the more controlled right lane will be. Ms. Stromgren stated there is a median that will be removed. Ms. Stromgren noted the project will be conducted from August through October 2025. Ms. Heiser stated the Louisiana Avenue project will be from May through November 2025 and will be coordinated with MnDOT. Ms. Heiser stated she will work on MnDOT-related questions received this evening and will get back to council and residents. Council Member Budd asked if pushing the vote out on this project hinders the funding for the project. Ms. Heiser stated she will find out and get back to council on that question. She stated funding would not be affected if the delay is a few weeks, but if it is six months or longer, it could be affected. Council Member Rog stated perhaps an open house meeting would have been better for this discussion to answer questions and concerns. She stated the city is responsive and works hard to engage residents and she hopes a delay in voting will reassure residents that the council does listen to what they have to say - and they will continue to listen. Ms. Keller stated city council will not vote on this item this evening and this item will come back before the council at a later meeting date. This will allow council more time to deliberate and for residents to understand the project better. 7. Regular business. a. Second reading and adoption of pre-eviction notice Ordinance No. 2683-24 Ms. Olson summarized the proposed ordinance. Council Member Dumalag stated this is a tough ordinance for her personally as it pits those who care about affordable housing against each other. She stated she will vote no on this ordinance. It was moved by Council Member Rog, seconded by Council Member Budd, to approve the second reading and adopt Ordinance No. 2683-24 pre-eviction notice as presented. City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 4a) Page 6 Title: City council meeting minutes of September 9, 2024 The motion passed 4-1 (Council Member Dumalag opposed; Mayor Mohamed and Council Member Brausen absent). 8. Communications and announcements. Ms. Keller stated the Fire Department open house is Sept. 17 from 5-7:30 p.m. and all are welcome to attend. There will be safety demonstrations and fun activities for kids, as well as food. Shuttles will be available at park-and-ride sites that can be found on the city website. 9. Adjournment.

Steady growth is projected in St. Louis Park; over the next 20 years, the population is projected to grow by 20% to around 59,000 people. We expect to receive housing goals from Met Council in 2025. Council Member Budd asked about the 4d properties indicated in the staff report, and if they are eligible for the state program. Ms. Olson stated to be eligible for the state program, there needs to be a requirement for affordability and a government financial contribution. She added the cost to the city is minimal, but units are committed to being affordable for a minimum of five years. Council Member Rog asked about the Kids in the Park program and noted they have heard from 20-30 families, adding a question about the wait list status. Ms. Olson stated the waiting list had just opened and there are about 50 families on the list so far. She added the program has grown from nine to 30 families since 2017 and this year had the most applications received, while in years past, they had struggled to get applications. Page 2 City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 4b) Title: City council study session meeting minutes of September 9, 2024 Council Member Rog asked if the “Bring it Home” program will be opened like other voucher programs. Ms. Olson stated yes, in general the program is built to mirror the housing voucher program. She added it will have a separate waiting list because the applicant must remain in the community with the “Bring it Home” program. Council Member Rog asked about Kids in the Park program outcomes that were received in the past and noted this would be helpful as talking points. 3.Zoning code updates. Mr. Morrison presented the staff report. He stated the policy considerations are as follows and the council will be asked for their feedback: •Do the proposed changes to the zoning code align with the city’s strategic priorities and the 2040 comprehensive plan, goals and strategies •Does the city council support the housing types identified in each of the proposed housing types zoning code proposed districts •Does the city council support initiating an amendment to the 2040 comprehensive plan to increase density allowed in low-density residential land-use category to be consistent with the density needed for the housing types and lot sizes proposed in the N1 neighborhood districts Council Member Rog asked about lot depth. Mr. Morrison stated there is no change related to the ordinance. Mr. Walther stated there is no depth requirement, adding the goal is to not disrupt existing blocks. Council Member Budd asked whether there is a maximum number of low-rise apartment units. Mr. Morrison stated the density is defined by lot size and the density set in the comprehensive plan. He stated as an example, one plan was recently approved on Cedar Lake Road that had 32 units and that had very large and deep lots compared to lots on Minnetonka Boulevard. Council Member Rog asked how tall the building height limit is. Mr. Morrison stated it is about 30 feet tall. Council Member Rog asked about the increase in 10 feet, adding it sounds like a large amount. Mr. Walther stated that is not a change, as the current R-4 zoning district allows 40 feet, so that was carried forward to the new district to be consistent. Mr. Walther stated the heights go from 30 feet in N-1 to 40 feet in N-2 and then to 75 feet in N-3. Council Member Rog asked about outlier homes within the city. Mr. Morrison stated staff tried to identify those, so they will not be zoned N3 or N4, or create any non-conformities. Council Member Dumalag noted the parking lot by the tennis courts on the northeast corner of Belt Line Blvd and Monterey Dr and stated that would be proposed N4. Mr. Walther stated this was correct. He added the city owns that area entirely and it is not privately owned. He also noted the parcel is currently zoned RC high density residence district, so that is consistent with the proposed N4 district. Page 3 City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 4b) Title: City council study session meeting minutes of September 9, 2024 Council Member Rog noted that in an area of Ward 1, there is a preponderance of daycares that are licensed and not licensed, and a lot of traffic and conflict with neighbors. She stated she wonders how this will all play out and added she has concerns about allowing daycares in conventional neighborhoods. She asked if daycares and group daycares would be limited within a particular area and if there is interest in looking at that based on traffic and other concerns. Mr. Morrison stated the code could include standards for daycares in these settings. Mr. Walther stated group daycares are allowed in low-density residential areas today, but only as an accessory use to a school or a church. There are many of those that operate already, but this was a proposal from planning commission to consider allowing group daycares as a principal use. This does not refer to the in-home family daycares, but to commercial buildings that house daycares. He stated family daycares in residences are allowed as a home occupation. Mr. Morrison stated family daycares are limited to 14 children by the State of Minnesota. Council Member Baudhuin asked if the state requirements are sufficient for the city. Mr. Walther stated there are very few concerns around family daycares that are licensed. Mr. Walther stated this will now go back to planning commission and bring it back to council as part of the broader package. Council Member Rog stated she would still like to discuss group homes. Mr. Morrison stated there can be as many as six residents per dwelling unit. Mr. Walther stated the city does not have control over state-licensed group daycares. Mr. Morrison stated for non-state licensed group homes, the city does attach standards to the use including a distancing requirement from any other groups home and within 300 feet of commercial property. Mr. Morrison stated the next step will be to look at the process for adopting the ordinance. Council Member Dumalag asked if staff could provide illustrations or photo examples of the buildings to better understand the maximum size of housing types that would be allowed N1 zone. Mr. Walther stated the examples staff shown during the community engagement process are of typical buildings in these categories, and not at the maximum. He noted the maximum sizes of buildings allowed is not changing, but the housing types within that building envelope are changing. He added that staff would try to have more examples to illustrate the potential buildings at future meetings. Council Member Baudhuin stated he is in favor of all three policy questions. He asked if staff has looked at any other cities that did a similar zone change and if that impacted property values with bigger developments. He also asked if this is a realistic fear. Mr. Morrison stated the city has reviewed the pace of change in other communities and the changes will be very slow. Mr. Walther indicated that similar research he has reviewed in the past that were specific to all- affordable apartment buildings has not shown a negative impact to property values surrounding the development. He also noted the Elmwood neighborhood has allowed duplexes for decades and it remains a highly desirable neighborhood with stable property values. Page 4 City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 4b) Title: City council study session meeting minutes of September 9, 2024 Council Member Rog stated she has big concerns around corporate ownership of properties in the community and creating conditions for more of that to happen with these changes. She stated she wants to do everything to prevent that and has heard concerns from residents on this also. There are concerns about this and she does not want to blindly walk into a decision. She also wants to look at what policies can be put into place to avoid corporate ownership of properties. Mr. Walther stated there will be a written report to update council later in this series of study session topics to report the changes since this topic was last discussed. Council Member Budd asked for a discussion of this topic, rather than a written report. Ms. Keller stated staff is tracking the question of corporate ownership and council directed staff to add this as a discussion topic only if it grows more than 10% and it has not reached that level. Council Member Rog stated she has had residents tell her there are a certain number of rentals on their street and it conflicts with staff information and asked why that is. Council Member Budd stated she has also had this happen with residents. Ms. Barton stated rental properties are required to be licensed by the city and if there is concern, these properties are investigated and any residents that have concerns should contact city staff. Council Member Budd stated she also supports all three policy questions. Council Member Dumalag stated she also supports all three policy questions. Council Member Rog asked about adding more diverse types of housing, more condominiums and patio homes. She asked if there are ways with this new zoning to be more proactive and encourage certain types of housing in certain areas. Mr. Walther stated staff has worked on this issue and stated courtyard cottages and condominiums tend to be for sale products versus rentals. He stated we put greater emphasis on diversity of housing so there is more opportunity for this to occur. Council Member Budd asked about the state proposals to change regulations and their potential impacts on the city’s efforts for diversity in housing. Mr. Walther stated all the efforts staff has made to calibrate our regulations to better fit in with the community would be wiped clean and more housing types and larger sized buildings would be allowed without conditions. He added a lot of city control and authority would be eliminated. Council Member Rog stated she will also support the three policy questions. Council Member Farris stated that she will support the three policy questions as well.

He thanked workers for their contributions. Council Member Rog noted consent agenda item 5d and stated it is a significant action related to acquiring land for the Cedar Lou project at the cost of $1 million, of which council is aware. It was moved by Council Member Brausen, seconded by Council Member Farris, to approve the consent items as listed; and to waive reading of all resolutions and ordinances. The motion passed 7-0. 6. Public hearings. a. Resolution No. 24-108 approving assessment of delinquent charges Ms. Finkel presented the staff report. Council Member Brausen stated billing notifications are also sent out to residents about fees that are delinquent. He thanked staff for their work on this communication. City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 4c) Page 3 Title: City council meeting minutes of September 16, 2024 Council Member Rog asked about the state-funded program that assists low-income residents with tree removal costs, and if that is available retroactively. Ms. Finkel stated she would get back to council with that information. Mayor Mohamed opened the public hearing. Faith Riverstone, 9001 Stanlen Rd., stated she is disabled and low-income. She received her notice on Friday. She receives assistance for her water and energy bills. She noted the state’s timeline for processing assistance is 60 days and if the levy is approved, the delinquent fee will go onto her property taxes. The water bill assistance program will not pay her taxes. She noted her specific case will be removed from the levy according to Ms. Finkel, but she is speaking on behalf of the ten percent of St. Louis Park residents who are disabled, on a fixed income and use these types of programs. She asked the council to consider this and allow due process for residents to state their case and be allowed to negotiate, settle or set up a payment plan. She stated St. Louis Park has always been good about taking care of their residents but feels the water department has not considered people with disabilities or made a way to work with residents on this. Mayor Mohamed stated Ms. Riverstone has every right to stand before the council and address them with her concerns, as does anyone in the city. She thanked Ms. Riverstone for her comments and stated the council takes this concern very seriously and will work with staff. Ms. Keller added staff will be available in the lobby after the meeting to take names and phone numbers of anyone with questions. This will allow staff to get back to residents with answers. Mayor Mohamed closed the public hearing. Council Member Brausen stated this process puts overdue utility fees onto property taxes and at this point, he does not think this procedure can be changed. Mr. Mattick stated that in the case of a proposed change, the policy would be reviewed and staff would bring suggestions back to the council to discuss and decide upon. He added that a change to procedure would be disruptive at this point and he would not recommend it this evening. Council Member Brausen agreed, but added he would like to review and discuss the policy at a later date based on public comments made this evening. He stated this is an established procedure at this time and is how delinquent charge assessments are approved. Council Member Rog thanked Ms. Riverstone for her comments and stated the council was not aware of this issue. She added the council and city do want to take care of residents. She is confident that council will take this concern seriously and agreed that making changes in procedure at this point may not be available. She observed that Ms. Riverstone does seem to be getting the assistance she needs at this point, and added she also wants to further look into this and move in the direction of equity. Council Member Baudhuin added this item was difficult for him to understand and he appreciated Ms. Riverstone’s comments. He stated the council does need to take a closer look at this process and he appreciates further discussion. City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 4c) Page 4 Title: City council meeting minutes of September 16, 2024 Council Member Dumalag also thanked Ms. Riverstone for her comments and stated this issue should be flagged to our legislators when the council meets with them as there is a disconnect, adding agencies need to talk to one another when issues like this arise. Council Member Farris agreed and stated there are probably more than ten percent of the city’s population who are struggling with these types of issues. She pointed out that many people may struggle in silence. She thanked Ms. Riverstone for her comments and said the city will try to help. Ms. Keller stated there is interest from the council to review the delinquent fee assessment process and staff has heard this. A plan of review will be formulated and brought back to council for discussion. Mayor Mohamed agreed, and she added she looks forward to this conversation in the future as well. It was moved by Council Member Brausen, seconded by Council Member Rog, to adopt Resolution No. 24-108 approving assessment of delinquent charges as presented. The motion passed 7-0. 7. Regular business. a. First reading of zoning text amendment - breweries with taprooms in I-G general industrial district Mr. Hansen presented the staff report. Council Member Brausen stated it makes sense to be consistent and appreciated the applicant bringing this forward and the zoning staff making the correction. Council Member Rog asked what is changing. Mr. Hansen stated that taprooms are not currently allowed in breweries in this district. The change will allow taprooms in this district, utilizing up to 25% of their floorplan. It was moved by Council Member Dumalag, seconded by Council Member Farris, to approve the first reading of the zoning text amendment allowing breweries with taprooms in I-G general industrial district and set the second reading for Oct. 7, 2024. The motion passed 7-0. b. Resolution Nos. 24-109, 24-110 and 24-111 to adopt 2025 preliminary property tax levy certification Ms. Cruver presented the staff report. She noted the policy considerations for council are related to the general, EDA levy and HRA levies with an overall preliminary property tax levy payable in 2025 of $49,979,665, a 7.52% increase from 2024 which includes: City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 4c) Page 5 Title: City council meeting minutes of September 16, 2024 • $48,598, 532 for core government services and debt payments (general and debt service levies) • $1,194,133 for housing projects and programs (HRA levy) • $187,000 for economic development projects and programs (HRA levy) Ms. Cruver noted that final levy approval will occur on Dec. 16, 2024. Council Member Brausen stated a truth in taxation hearing will be set also. Ms. Cruver confirmed that the hearing will be held Dec. 2, 2024 and information about it will be sent to all residents, along with information posted on the city website. Council Member Brausen noted the projected year's levy and if this reduction down to 7.5% has impacted the projections. Ms. Cruver stated the changes took place in the capital funds, which are based on the projects included in the CIP. Council Member Brausen asked what the 2024 projection was one year ago and did it change with the levy change. Ms. Cruver stated she will get back to council with that information. Council Member Rog asked about the structural deficit. Ms. Cruver stated that capital improvement funds, such as the municipal building fund and the IT fund, have consistently spent more than the levy has brought in. She stated this is an issue that staff first discussed in last year’s budget and that we are continuing on our multi-year plan to close the gap between budgeted spending and ongoing revenue. Council Member Rog asked about the assumption of going from 4.5% to 5% to maintain. She asked if going forward, will the city’s levy increase always be over 5% unless we start to eliminate programs. Ms. Cruver stated that is a fair assumption, adding that can always be reviewed depending on circumstances. Council Member Rog noted moving to bonding for the Municipal Service Center roof makes sense. She asked how much the debt service will add to overall costs. Ms. Cruver stated this is factored into the five-year debt service, but noted there are other road projects that will need to be bonded for. Council Member Rog asked if the park improvement fund is two times the desired balance or two times annual spending, and the need to restore it to current levels. She added those two items seem contradictory. Ms. Cruver stated there is a fund balance in that fund and we want to be sure it will not all be spent down and then increased rapidly up to $900,000, which would be very disruptive to taxpayers. She added it is the balance that needs to be struck. She noted also this forecast restores the levy to the 2024 levy amount which will be a spend down of the fund balance. Council Member Rog asked if the reduced rate for homesteaded properties is new in 2024. Ms. Cruver stated in 2025, there is an increased deduction for homesteaded properties. Council Member Rog asked if the difference balances out the homestead and non-homestead rates, how this works, and if it impacts what the city takes in the property taxes. Ms. Cruver City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 4c) Page 6 Title: City council meeting minutes of September 16, 2024 stated there would be a policy change at the state level that would lower collections. She added if there is a reduction in one group, the rest of the groups would cover the taxes. Mr. Bultema added the property tax system is a closed system. For homestead properties, the policy change pushed up how much is excluded and also stretched out the ranges. He added it is advantageous for lower-value properties and less advantageous for higher-value properties. He stated there will be an 80% reduction in property taxes for 4D-1 properties. Council Member Rog asked if the city has met the threshold as set by the state. Mr. Bultema stated that as yet, the city does not qualify. Council Member Dumalag asked how this impacts commercial properties in the city. Mr. Bultema stated it is complicated, as the class rate structures changes were to single-family residential and then affordable housing and apartments. Mr. Bultema added certain sectors have struggled more than others and it is well known the office sector is under stress. He stated the valuations are set based on the market value in the immediately preceding time period and due to that, normally there has been more robust commercial growth which tends to subsidize residential, but that is on a pause for assessment years 2023, 2024 and possibly 2025. Mr. Bultema stated with this pause in the commercial sector, there is more of a burden on residential properties now. Council Member Budd asked what portion of the city’s commercial property is classified as offices. Mr. Bultema stated he can look for that information and get it back to council. Council Member Budd asked about delamination and the $4 million price that is not being incorporated here but noted changes to the mill and overlay process. She asked if the estimated cost is not $4 million, is that amount factored into the plan. Ms. Cruver stated this budget is not recommending a fund increase for mill and overlay work, adding the pavement work is funded in the city by franchise fees, so there is no recommendation for expansion of this funding in 2025. She added that when each area of pavement is evaluated for improvement, delamination will be factored in, but there will be no expansion of roadwork in this budget. Council Member Budd asked if franchise fees are part of the budget discussion. Ms. Cruver stated that no changes to franchise fees are being proposed in the 2025 budget, but that we should consider revising them within the next year or two. Council Member Rog stated there is $330,000 of funding from the state for affordable housing via a new sales tax. She asked if these funds will be used to address the impacts of the 30-day pre-eviction notice. She also noted another $100,000 may be promised for grants also. She asked if this is still the intention. Ms. Cruver stated as it relates to the social service grants, there will be $50,000 available requests. She added there is $100,000 in the housing trust fund and now that will be increased to $200,000 towards social services grant funding agreements that local entities can apply for to assist residents with housing issues. City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 4c) Page 7 Title: City council meeting minutes of September 16, 2024 Council Member Rog stated there was a strong recommendation from council that there be a priority for that funding. Ms. Keller stated staff will need to go back to see if a majority of council was interested in putting that funding towards affordable housing and those restrictions. She added usually, we tend to not have restricted use, so the funds can best match the emerging needs of the community. She stated if council decides to work with restrictions, this can be done with the city attorney’s assistance. Council Member Dumalag stated council was going to discuss and review this recommendation before putting that into this levy and budget plan. Mayor Mohamed added she would also like to have that discussion prior to moving forward on a plan such as Council Member Rog noted. Council Member Rog stated she agrees and just wanted to make sure the discussion did not get lost. Mayor Mohamed stated she is proud of the work of staff to bring the preliminary property tax levy down from 9% to 7.5%, adding this is exactly what council was looking for. She stated she is grateful for staff’s detail on the preliminary levy and she will support this 7.5% levy. Mayor Mohamed stated she is glad there is a nice balance showing the city will be fiscally responsible over the next few years. Council Member Brausen also noted that taxes are the cost of doing business for the city, and it is not the council’s intention to make it difficult for taxpayers. Council Member Rog is appreciative of the all-inclusive and transparent levy process, and she appreciates staff for making this happen. Council Member Baudhuin added his thanks again to staff for their work from 9% to 7.5%. He also noted there was a lot of teamwork being done here and he appreciates this. Council Member Dumalag stated she wanted to point out also that this is only one part of resident’s taxes. It was moved by Council Member Brausen, seconded by Council Member Baudhuin, to adopt Resolution Nos. 24-109, 24-110, and 24-111, adopting 2025 preliminary property tax levy certification as presented. The motion passed 7-0. 8. Communications and announcements. Ms. Keller stated the fire department open house is Tues., Sept. 17, at 5:30 p.m. Ms. Keller added there will be an open house regarding the MnDOT project on Wed., Sept. 26, in the city hall community room. Notice will be sent to 3,300 residents and affected properties. City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 4c) Page 8 Title: City council meeting minutes of September 16, 2024 Ms. Keller shared that Trellis, a local property ownership, has preserved 56 units of affordable housing in St. Louis Park with the purchase of the five apartment buildings formerly owned by Perspectives. She stated the city is deeply supportive of preserving these units. Council Member Rog stated on Sept. 17, the League of Women Voters is hosting a candidate forum at city hall starting at 7 p.m. in council chambers. Council Member Dumalag encouraged everyone to submit questions. 9. Adjournment.

Council Member Baudhuin thanked the commission for their work. He added he wanted to be sure the commission understands how to work with the council during study sessions.

Mr. Siegler stated all has been shut down; previous leadership was working on multiple angles to close the digital divide including and up to installing the city’s infrastructure. He stated at that point, CTAC realized that was not their charter, and the idea of external consultants was shut down. CTAC looked at their priorities and worked to make known the city’s existing infrastructure and advocate for that awareness. Council Member Rog asked about community outreach. Mr. Siegler stated their intent to do more than newsletters and is looking for more involvement and volunteers. He stated they are working with folks to learn how to sign up online and take advantage of available programs. City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 4d) Page 3 Title: Special study session meeting minutes of September 16, 2024 Council Member Baudhuin asked if CTAC will give input on the city website redesign.

Council Member Budd asked about youth association meetings. Ms. Rippe stated all presidents for each sport group are invited to join, along with the school district, to keep communication open and to get folks to work together. What it means to be an advisory board or commission Mr. Zweber stated that he would like regular communication with the council in more sessions like this one, where the ESC can advise council and discuss common issues. He noted the ESC would like a response to any memos sent to the council, and also would like to present any ESC advisory memos or research to council in person. Related to engagement with the council, he would like to have a co-creation session with the council at the ESC annual retreat. He stated that the ESC does quite a bit of community engagement, and hearing about particular values the council would like presented while the commission is out tabling would also be helpful. Ms. Rippe stated the parks and recreation commission would like regular communication from council on any immediate topics they are interested in pursuing. They would also like more visibility of council members serving as volunteers at their events and showing support of staff to the community as a whole. Ms. Lawler-Turnbull stated the HRC would appreciate more frequent communication from council, so they are making sure to prioritize the concerns of the council. She added the HRC is so broad, sometimes they spin their wheels as there are so many things they want to address. She added any focus or a quarterly check-in with council would be appreciated. Mr. Siegler noted CTAC would like a mandate from the council; assignments and priorities of the council. He stated that input would be helpful. Mr. Eugene stated the PAC would like more communication with the council and would be interested in having a council member liaison attend a meeting quarterly to increase awareness of the PAC’s current work. Integrating commissions into the work council does so they can alleviate them of work would have great value, along with more interaction. He added the recommendation of PAC being part of conversations before legislation becomes enacted would allow the commission to function as an advisory group to the council. City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 4d) Page 4 Title: Special study session meeting minutes of September 16, 2024 Council Comments Council Member Farris stated she appreciates all the work the commissions do. It is her opinion that it would be nice to engage everyone and find ways to work together, making those avenues accessible to everyone. Council Member Dumalag added she was concerned about coordinating efforts. She hopes to have more conversations like this in the future. She offered working on communication to make sure boards and commission members understand that the council is the entity that the public calls, so they need to be informed by boards and commissions in advance. She added that boards and commissions need to understand their role and know what they are legally allowed to say and not to say. Council Member Baudhuin thanked staff for their work; he is hopeful the council and boards and commissions will get to a better place. He liked the comment about being in front of legislation and not behind it. He shared his opinion that the HRC should have been working with council all along related to the 30-day eviction notice. Hopefully there will be more intentional communication in the future, adding there is lots of work towards improvement and all parties are wanting this. Council Member Rog stated there is a lot of opportunity here and she is excited about it. In order to get input from boards and commissions, there may be a change in timing of when issues come before the council. She stated this opportunity will change business as usual and over time, this will result in bigger changes as well. She recalled having spoken with the revisioning process consultant. Their remark was that the boards and commissions structure in St. Louis Park was rare and unique and something to be utilized and elevated. Council Member Rog agrees and is excited to move to full utilization of all these people who care so much about the community and bring their expertise and skills. Council Member Budd agreed and stated she has been visiting various commissions over the last six months. One thing that stood out to her was that there are few members on some of the commissions who are doing a lot of work. It was refreshing to see the plans in the report and she is happy to know how everyone has maintained the course. She is also happy to see there are 80 applicants for 46 positions, so the community has a hunger to be active and that is a blessing. She stated she appreciates the innovative thoughts and comments from everyone. Council Member Brausen stated council will work on their part of the communication process. He stated the relationship between the council and boards and commissions is constantly changing. He noted when he served on the HRC, they never talked with the council and only communicated by written reports. He shared that it is a challenge to be available as much as the community needs while fulfilling the official functions of the council as well. Mayor Mohamed added this meeting has been a long time in the making. She noted her thanks to Ms. Brodeen and Mr. Coleman and staff for all their work. She agreed it is difficult to be present in all of the commissions, but understands they want – and need - to be in ongoing communication with the council. She invited the boards and commissions to invite her to their meetings and she will make time. She wants to get this right and make sure the roles and City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 4d) Page 5 Title: Special study session meeting minutes of September 16, 2024 responsibilities are correct out of respect to commission members’ time. The council wants to make sure they utilize people’s talents as much as possible as well. Mr. Coleman stated that the information arising from this discussion will be utilized when the council sets priorities at the end of this year, along with information from the October 2024 meeting with the statutory boards as well. Written Reports 2. MnDOT I-394 and Louisiana Avenue Improvements project – next steps – Ward 4 3. Cannabis zoning ordinance Council Member Rog referenced the cannabis zoning ordinance report and asked if this will be discussed and a decision made at the next meeting. Ms. Keller stated there will be a study session next, and questions can be submitted before the meeting. Council Member Brausen stated he has concerns about the small number of licenses total for cannabis sales and having only four licenses. Ms. Keller stated licenses would be based on state statutes and not based on first come, first served. She stated there will be ample time for more conversation before the Oct. 7, 2024 meeting regarding this topic.

Policy consideration: Does the city council approve replacing the fire departments existing emergency radios? Summary: The fire department CIP budget for 2024 includes $730,000 for replacement of the department’s emergency two-way radios. This included replacing base radios in the fire stations, mobile radios in the fire trucks and portable radios that firefighters carry. This is being funded with one-time Minnesota Public Safety Aid from the 2023 Minnesota State Legislature. The radios that the fire department currently operate are no longer supported for repairs by Motorola due to their age. Fire department leadership reevaluated the current radio inventory and was able to reduce the total amount of replacement radios without any impact on the fire departments operations. The fire department received a quote to replace the described radios utilizing the Minnesota State bid process for $527,236.46. This is a savings of $202,763.54 from the original budgeted amount. Fire Department staff is recommending the approval of the purchase of the radios from Ancom Communications, Inc. for $527,236.46. Council approval is required because the purchase is over the statutory limit of $175,000. Financial or budget considerations: This purchase was part of the approved 2024 budget and is coming in under the budgeted amount.

Recommended action: Motion to declare two pieces of fire apparatus surplus, authorize their sale and approve a purchase of an EV Chevrolet Blazer. Policy consideration: Does the city council approve selling two pieces of surplus fire apparatus, authorize their sale and approve replacing with one EV Chevrolet Blazer. Summary: The fire department leadership team along with input from the cities Fleet Manager, have determined that two pieces of the Fire Departments fire apparatus are underutilized and no longer needed. The fire department is recommending declaring two pieces of fire apparatus surplus, authorize their sale and replace them with one electric Chevrolet Blazer of the Minnesota State bid process. The surplus apparatus: •Unit 1712 a 2017 Ford F350 quick response utility truck with a suggested replacement cost of $132,511. •Unit 1713, 1714 & 1717 a 2017 Gravley UTV Brush truck, fire pump and trailer with a suggested replacement cost of $84,162 Fire staff have researched the used value of these and have determined a combined market value of approximately $75,000. Since fire vehicles have a unique market and these vehicles still have a significant value as fire vehicles, it is suggested we market the used vehicles through a vendor who specializes in the sale of used fire apparatus. GovDeals is a Sourcewell State contract organization who specializes in selling surplus government vehicles at no cost to the city. Fire staff would like to replace these surplus vehicles with one 2024 electric Chevrolet Blazer to be purchased of Minnesota State bid for $62,966.12 Financial or budget considerations: It is recommended that the existing surplus fire apparatus be sold and replaced with an electric Chevrolet Blazer Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a variety of options for people to make their way around the city comfortably, safely and reliably.

Policy consideration: Does the city council agree to accept $19,811.00 and enter into a grant agreement with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency for a Local Climate Action grant? Summary: The city’s Climate Action Plan calls for 100% of new car and 10% of new truck purchases by residents to be electric vehicles (EVs) by 2030. Public charging access is necessary to support this strategy and the city currently offers ten charging ports for community use. In 2020, the Aquila neighborhood was identified by staff as a “charging desert” with no publicly accessible stations. Since then, staff have pursued outside funding to purchase and install a dual-port Level 2 station in Aquila. In July 2024, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency awarded the City of St. Louis Park $19,811.00 through the competitive Local Climate Action grant for the project. The station will be near almost 25 Naturally Occurring Affordable Housing properties, helping to make charging accessible for residents who do not have dedicated parking spaces or permission to install an EV charger. Like other existing city owned stations, charging will be free for the first three (3) hours, and $6.00 per hour thereafter to encourage turnover and shared use of this amenity. Building & energy/sustainability will collaborate closely with parks & recreation/facilities to implement the project and manage the grant. Financial or budget considerations: The remaining 50% city portion of the total estimated $39,622 project cost, which includes the charger, concrete work, bollards, signage, striping, electrical and installation, is currently funded in the 2024 city’s capital improvement plan. Installation is expected to occur within the next two months. Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to continue to lead in environmental stewardship.

While there are approximately 25 publicly accessible level 2 chargers located within the city borders, not even one is in the west side of the city, where the census tract scores nearly 90 on the Social Vulnerability Index and is denoted in the MPCA’s environmental justice map for both income levels and for people of color. Adding public chargers to this popular park would serve as not only an amenity for visitors, but also a major asset to the dense renter population living in the nearly 25 naturally occurring affordable housing (NOAH) apartment buildings Attachment A City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 5f) Title: Resolution accepting funding from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and entering into a grant agreement for installation of an electric vehicle charging station Page 12 10 adjacent to the park—where vehicles battle for limited street parking and chargers are non-existent. Most EV charging happens at home, highlighting a need to make technology accessible to residents unable to install a home charger. The park also has ballfields, tennis courts, and a playground; is next to Aquila Elementary School; hosts the North Cedar Lake Regional Trail; and is a two-block walk to the Texa- Tonka shopping area, making it a strong candidate for a Level 2 charger. This project implements electric vehicle transition goals outlined in the city’s Climate Action Plan. The project will reduce vehicle emissions, improve local air quality, and make EV charging more accessible. 2. Workplan detail Task 1 of 5: Prepare for project implementation.

Policy consideration: Does the city council wish to reimburse the city from the bond proceeds for all of the city costs related to the various upcoming bonding projects? Summary: In the past, the city has adopted reimbursement resolutions for projects to ensure that it can reimburse itself for the costs incurred before it receives the bond proceeds. This is a debt management best practice. This action does not authorize the issuance of bonds, but simply preserves the ability for the city to reimburse itself. Resolutions of intent by the city to use bond proceeds to finance all or a portion of the expenditures are required prior to incurring those costs. The city is also eligible to be reimbursed for “preliminary expenditures” such as architectural, engineering and surveying costs, etc., up to an amount allowed under the reimbursement regulations. The attached resolutions cover both the construction and preliminary expenditures. The reimbursement maximum in each resolution covers all bond-related project costs. The actual amount of bonding may be less than this amount and we may spread some costs over multiple years if the projects move forward and/ or timing changes. Financial or budget considerations: Bonds will be issued next year to cover cash flow needs for projects in the adopted 2025 CIP that are financed through borrowing. Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.

Policy consideration: Should breweries in the I-G general industrial zoning district be allowed to operate a taproom as an accessory use? Summary: The applicant, Karl Eicher, requests a zoning text amendment to open a taproom at Haggard Barrel Brewing. The proposed ordinance moves brewery to the permitted with conditions list in section 36-244(c) and adds a condition that up to 25% of the gross floor area of the brewery may be used for any combination of retail and taproom in the I-G district. The planning commission held a public hearing on Sept. 4, 2024. No one from the public spoke. The planning commission recommended approval of the ordinance because taprooms are permitted with conditions in other zoning districts that allow breweries, and the I-G district similarly allows distilleries to operate cocktail rooms.

Policy consideration: None. Summary: This permit parking was installed in 2019 following the city’s permit parking for persons with medical needs practice through traffic study 709. Annually, staff reaches out to the residents who have assigned medical needs permit parking to confirm the ongoing need. In July 2024, staff made several attempts to reach the parking permit holder for 3308 Texas Avenue without any success. In situations where the ongoing need for permit parking cannot be established, staff recommends rescinding the permit parking. On July 17, staff sent a final letter to 3308 Texas Avenue informing them that if we did not hear from them by Aug. 30, we would be removing the parking restrictions. As of Oct. 1, 2024, staff has not received any response to the letter. This item is being brought to council since the permit parking was installed by resolution. In working with the city’s attorney, it has been determined that council action is not necessary for this type of permit. Future medical needs parking permits will be approved and removed administratively and not brought to the council for action. Financial or budget considerations: The cost to remove these controls is minimal and will come out of the general operating budget. Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.

Policy consideration: None. Summary: On Feb. 6, 2023, the city council approved the preliminary layout for the Cedar Lake Road and Louisiana Avenue Improvement project. The project phasing and schedule: 1. Cedar Lake Road Improvement (TH169 to Rhode Island Avenue) – project no. 4023-1100 o Construction 2024 2. Cedar Lake Road (Rhode Island Avenue to Kentucky Avenue) and Louisiana Avenue (Wayzata Boulevard to BNSF railroad) Improvement – project no. 4024-1100 o Construction 2025 and 2026 A limited phase II environmental study was conducted. It found that there are contaminated materials in the phases under construction in 2025 and 2026 that would need to be removed to construct this project. While this material is not hazardous, it will need to be disposed of in a landfill. To address these costs, staff recommends applying for an ERF grant to pay for the removal costs. The ERF program provides funds for the assessment and cleanup of contaminated sites. ERF grants provide funding for a variety of activities at contaminated sites where the added environmental costs hinder site improvements or redevelopment. Staff is reques ting that council approve the attached resolution of support to apply for and receive the ERF grant. Financial or budget considerations: The engineer’s estimate for this project is $13,200,000. The project will be paid for using municipal state aid (MSA), utility funds, federal aid, congressionally directed spending and state appropriation. Passing this resolution will enable the city to apply for ERF grant funds to fund $600,000 of contaminated material removal. If received, these dollars will offset the overall cost of this project. Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to continue to lead in environmental stewardship.

Policy consideration: Does the council approve the parcel purchase at 7120 Cedar Lake Road for the Cedar Lake Road and Louisiana Avenue Improvement project – Phase 2? Summary: On Feb. 6, 2023, the city council approved the preliminary layout for the Cedar Lake Road and Louisiana Avenue Improvement project. To construct this project as shown on the approved layout, the city needs to purchase Parcel #55 from a private property owner. On April 15, 2024, the city council approved a resolution to commence eminent domain for this parcel, enabling the project team to start negotiations with the property owner. Staff anticipated that this parcel would take longer to acquire since we needed the entire parcel to build the roundabout at the intersection of Cedar Lake Road and Louisiana Ave nue. SRF Consulting Group, the city's right of way consultant, has been negotiating with the property owners since April 2024 and has recently come to a conditional agreement on purchase price. Since the offer is over $175,000, it requires council approval. Financial or budget considerations: The cost for the property acquisition for Parcel #55 is $800,000. The Feb. 20, 2024 city council report contains an estimate of $1,928,473 for property acquisition for both Phase 1 and Phase 2 of this project . The recommended settlement amount is within the estimated budget for this property acquisition. The project will be paid for using municipal state aid (MSA), utility funds, federal aid, congressionally directed spending and state appropriation. Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a variety of options for people to make their way around the city comfortably, safely and reliably.

To construct this project as shown on the approved layout, the city needs to acquire (purchase) Parcel #55 from a private property owner to accommodate the new intersection layout. Parcel acquisition: Construction of the roundabout at the intersection of Cedar Lake Road and Louisiana Avenue will require the purchase of parcel #55, located at 7120 Cedar Lake Road. This parcel is located in the northeast corner of the intersection of Cedar Lake Road and Louisiana Avenue. The current retail business operating on this property is West End Tobacco & Cigars. Because the city project will require demolition of the building, the city must acquire the entire parcel. Please see the overview of the parcel below. Parcel #55 – 7120 Cedar Lake Road SRF Consulting Group, the city's right of way consultant, has been negotiating with the property owners since April 2024 and has recently come to a conditional agreement on purchase price.

Policy consideration: Does the city council accept the proposed civil penalties for violations of St. Louis Park City Code Chapter 3? Summary: The city clerk’s office received notice of violations of Minnesota Statutes Chapter 340A and chapter 3 of the St. Louis Park City Code related to alcoholic beverages. The city is responsible for imposing civil penalties for violations of the city code. State law provides that the maximum penalty allowed for each violation is license revocation, license suspension for up to sixty (60) days, or imposition of a civil fine not to exceed $2,000.00 for each violation. • Yayin Gadol LLC dba Top Ten Liquors provided alcoholic beverages to another alcoholic beverage license retail account for resale. This is a violation of Minnesota Statutes 340A.415 and 340A.505 and chapter 3 of the St. Louis Park City Code. The state imposed a penalty of $1,500 against the license holder for the violation. Per the administrative penalty process outlined in Chapter 3 of the city code, the city proposed the imposition of an additional $500 fine for the violation as the license holder had already paid the $1,500 penalty to the Minnesota Department of Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement. Yayin Gadol LLC dba Top Ten Liquors agreed to the proposed civil penalty and have already paid the fine. • Philips Investment Co. dba Park Tavern Lounge & Lanes provided alcoholic beverages in the parking lot area outside of the specific premises approved in its license for liquor sales. This is a violation of Minnesota Statute Chapter 340A.410, sub. 7 and chapter 3 of the St. Louis Park City Code. Per the administrative penalty process outlined in Chapter 3 of the city code, the city proposed the imposition of a $2,000 fine and a three-day license suspension. Philips Investment Co. dba Park Tavern Lounge & Lanes agreed to the proposed civil penalty. If approved by the city council, the license holder will have 30 days to pay the fine and will serve the license suspension on October 28, November 4 and November 25, 2024. The city attorney has reviewed both violations and has approved the terms of each civil penalty. Financial or budget considerations: None. Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.

Since then, five additional service districts have been set up within the city (SSDs 1-4 are along Excelsior Boulevard, SSD 5 is along Park Place Boulevard near West End and SSD 6 is along W. 36th Street near Hoiggard Village). City staff provides management services for the service districts. Budget and service charge overview Annually, the city council must set a service charge for the district following a public hearing on the proposed charge. The service charges are used to fund the maintenance activities in each district. The notice of this public hearing was published on the city’s website and in the Sun Sailor on Sept. 19 and Oct. 3, 2024. The public hearing notice was sent to all property owners within each district. A summary of proposed 2025 budget and service charges are below: • SSD 1: budget and service charges proposed at $114,398; an increase of 2.14%. • SSD 2: budget and service charges proposed at $50,892; an increase of 2.14%. • SSD 3: budget and service charges proposed at $55,333; an increase of 2.14%. • SSD 4: budget and service charges proposed at $28,885; an increase of 2.14%. • SSD 5: budget and service charges proposed at $34,287; no increase due to adequate fund reserves to meet budgeted expenses. • SSD 6: budget proposed at $27,400 and service charges proposed at $19,320. No increase in budget or service charges due to adequate fund reserves to meet budgeted expenses. Proposed 2025 budget and service charges Following the public hearing, staff recommend approval of the following: • 2025 budget and service charges for each district. • In SSD 1: An annual contribution of $1,993 from Parkshores Senior Campus, LLC, in recognition of the benefits received as a residential property located within the service district. Present considerations: The Special Service Districts are a benefit to the businesses and city as they help maintain the improvements made in the district, promote a positive image of the business corridor and attract customers to the area. Next steps: • On Oct.21, 2024 the city council will be asked to adopt individual resolutions for each district setting the 2025 budgets and service charges and directing staff to certify the annual service charges to Hennepin County. • In November 2024, the city certifies the 2025 assessments (service charges) to Hennepin County.

Policy consideration: Does the city council support MnDOT's proposed work on I-394 and Louisiana Avenue? Summary: In 2025, MnDOT has improvements proposed for I-394 and Louisiana Avenue, including: • I-394 eastbound lane extension. Construct an extension of the general-purpose lane on eastbound I-394 from the Louisiana Avenue exit ramp to the Louisiana Avenue entrance ramp. • To build this project, MnDOT requires the transfer of permanent right of way on Wayzata Boulevard from the City of St Louis Park to MnDOT. • Construct a new auxiliary lane from the eastbound Louisiana Avenue on -ramp to the Xenia Avenue/Park Place Boulevard exit. • Replace I-394 and Louisiana Avenue north and south ramp signal systems. • Remove channelized right turns at the I-394 and Louisiana Avenue north and south ramp intersections. • Relocate city watermain on Wayzata Boulevard between 500 feet west of Dakota Avenue and Dakota Avenue. The city's approval is required for this project because it requires acquisition of permanent rights in two areas along Wayzata Boulevard, a city-owned street. During the Sept. 9, 2024, council meeting, the public and council had several questions. The se questions were answered in a study session report on Sept. 16, 2024. On Sept. 25, 2024, MnDOT held an open house to further discuss the details of the project. Around 20 people were in attendance. The invitation for this meeting was sent by mail to all properties on Wayzata Boulevard and to the Cedar Lake Road and Louisiana Avenue Improvement project email list (3,333 recipients). Financial or budget considerations: This project is included in the city's draft 2025 capital improvement plan (CIP). This is a MnDOT project with an overall cost estimated to be $14 million. The city's cost share is $250,000, which will be paid for using municipal state aid funds. Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable. Supporting documents: Discussion Public hearing council report Sept. 9, 2024 Study session council report Sept. 16, 2024 Resolution Prepared by: Debra Heiser, engineering director Approved by: Kim Keller, city manager City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 7a) Page 2 Title: Resolution for municipal consent in MnDOT I-394 and Louisiana Avenue project (4025-8000) – Ward 4 Discussion Background: In 2025, MnDOT has improvements proposed for I-394 and Louisiana Avenue. The city's approval is required for this project because it requires acquisition of permanent rights in two areas along Wayzata Boulevard, a city-owned street. In addition to the lane work on I-394, this project also includes the reconstruction of the signal at the eastbound I-394 and Louisiana Avenue ramps. Operation, maintenance and replacement of this signal are covered by an agreement between the St. Louis Park and MnDOT. As laid out in the agreement, the city has agreed to participate in signal replacement costs based on the number of legs of the signal under our jurisdiction. Due to this, the city is obligated to pay for half of the cost to replace this signal system as a part of this project. Additional information on this project can be found in the Sept. 9, 2024 council report. During the public hearing there were many questions from the public regarding what modifications MnDOT would be making to the highway a nd ramps. During the meeting, MnDOT went through the project layout to describe the improvements. However, there was not adequate time or exhibits to do this in a comprehensive way. Responses to these questions were provided in a study session report on Sept. 16, 2024. To provide this information more comprehensively, MnDOT held an open house to further discuss the details of the project with the public on Sept. 25, 2024. Around 20 people were in attendance. The invitation for this meeting was sent by mail to all properties on Wayzata Boulevard and to the Cedar Lake Road and Louisiana Avenue Improvement project email list (3,333 recipients). Present considerations: City staff has been working with MnDOT since the Sept. 9 public hearing on the project and wanted to share some additional information. 1. Clarification on why this project is coming to the council for municipal consent . Previous council memos have stated that the city's approval is required for this project because it increases highway traffic capacity on I-394 and requires acquisition of permanent rights in two areas along Wayzata Boulevard, a city -owned street. MnDOT has clarified that while the project increases highway traffic capacity on I -394, the lane construction is entirely in Golden Valley. This is due to the location of our northern municipal boundary. The city's northern municipal boundary is the south right of way line of I-394. A separate municipal consent process is being worked on with Golden Valley. St. Louis Park's municipal consent approval is due to the acquisition of permanent easement rights from the city. 2. Watermain relocation/street width reduction The new I-394 wall location conflicts with the existing 12-inch city watermain in the vicinity of Dakota Avenue. Due to this, MnDOT will pay to relocate the watermain under Wayzata Boulevard between 500 feet west of Dakota Avenue and Dakota Avenue. Also, at this location, to make room for the auxiliary lane, MnDOT will be reducing the width City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 7a) Page 3 Title: Resolution for municipal consent in MnDOT I-394 and Louisiana Avenue project (4025-8000) – Ward 4 of Wayzata Boulevard to 30 feet. The road is currently 36 feet wide, with no on-street parking allowed. The new watermain will be located beneath the south curb line of Wayzata Boulevard. Watermain construction will require the removal of the curb and the existing five (5)- foot wide sidewalk along the south side of Wayzata Boulevard at this location. Currently, the boulevard width, between the sidewalk and curb, ranges from zero to four (0-4) feet along this segment. In 2027, Wayzata Boulevard between Louisiana and Zarthan avenues is scheduled for reconstruction. As a part of that project, the sidewalk on the south side of the road is planned to be replaced with an 8-foot wide multi-use trail. A multi-use trail is planned for this segment of Wayzata Boulevard in both the city 's Connect the Park plan and Three Rivers Park District CP Rail Regional Trail long -range plan. To be cost-effective and consistent with these plans, staff has requested MnDOT to install the multi-use trail in place of the sidewalk along the south side of Wayzata Boulevard when they rebuild the road as a part of this project. In addition, there will be a 5-foot grass boulevard between the street and the trail. To make room for the trail and wider boulevard, the street width will be reduced to 28 feet. 3. Update to overall project cost Over the last several months, MnDOT has been refining its plans for this project. With the additional work, they now have a better understanding of project costs, resulting in an updated overall project cost of $14 million. There is no change to the city 's cost share. Next steps: The proposed schedule for MnDOT's project: Council project approval Oct. 7, 2024 Construction June-October 2025 Construction complete November 2025 City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 7a) Page 4 Title: Resolution for municipal consent in MnDOT I-394 and Louisiana Avenue project (4025-8000) – Ward 4 Resolution No. 24-___ Layout approval I- 394/ Louisiana project State Project 2789-171, city project 4025-8000 Whereas, the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) has a project that will include construction on I-394 to address congestion in the vicinity of Louisiana Avenue; and Whereas, said project includes replacement of the signal at the eastbound ramp terminal and Louisiana Avenue, of which the city will participate in the cost to reconstruct based on an existing signal agreement; and Whereas, to build the project, MnDOT requires the transfer of permanent right of way on Wayzata Boulevard from the City of St Louis Park to MnDOT; and Whereas, the watermain within the city's right of way is also within the construction limits of MnDOT's project, as a result MnDOT will incorporate the watermain relocation, street and trail construction into the project and reconstruct at their cost, and Whereas, the Commissioner of Transportation has prepared a final layout for State Project 2789-171 on Trunk Highway 394, from Pennsylvania Avenue to Dakota Avenue within the City of St. Louis Park for constructing of G.P. lane and auxiliary lane on eastbound 394, and replacing signals; and seeks the approval thereof, as described in Minnesota Statutes 161.162 to 161.167; and Whereas, said final layout is on file in the Metro District Minnesota Department of Transportation office, Roseville, Minnesota, being marked as Layout No. 1A, S.P. 2789 -171, from R.P.04+0.202 to 05+0.056, Now therefore be it resolved by the city council of the City of St. Louis Park, Minnesota, that said final layout for the improvement of said Trunk Highway within the corporate limits be and is hereby approved.

Policy consideration: Does the conditional use permit amendment meet code requirements? Summary: St. Louis Park Public Schools has a conditional use permit (CUP) to operate an educational facility with more than 20 students at 8500 W 31st Street (Aquila Elementary School). The school district requests a CUP amendment to allow an expansion for a new kindergarten classroom wing, learning commons and flex space that also functions as a storm shelter. Financial or budget considerations: None Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of housing and neighborhood oriented development.

Current use: Surrounding land uses: Educational facility with more than 20 students (grades K – 12) North: Minnetonka Blvd, apartments East: Xylon Avenue, apartments South: 31st Street, Aquila Park West: regional trail, single-family residences Current 2040 land use guidance Current zoning RL - low density residential R-2 single-family residence Background: Aquila Elementary School was built in 1956. In 2014, St. Louis Park Public Schools applied for a conditional use permit (CUP) to allow an educational (academic) facility with more than 20 students in the R-2 single family residence zoning district. Given the existing building did not have a CUP, the city required the school district to come into compliance with the zoning code at the time of a proposed addition to the front of the school. The property was approved for a CUP via Resolution No. 14-064. Present considerations: The proposed expansion of the existing building will add a new kindergarten classroom wing, learning commons, and flex space that will also serve as a storm shelter. The addition will provide added space for the school’s current student population. The project will also improve overall on-site stormwater management and minimally effect the SITE City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 7b) Page 3 Title: Resolution approving conditional use permit amendment for Aquila Elementary School expansion – 8500 W 31st Street - Ward 3 current street and traffic conditions. Zoning analysis: Building materials. The zoning ordinance requires at least 60% class 1 materials, which includes materials such as glass, brick, stucco and other materials. The expansion proposes at least 70% of class 1 materials on each building elevation. The project complies with this zoning requirement. Height. The existing building is one story, and approximately 10 feet in height. The maximum height allowed is 35 feet. The existing building and the expansion meet the height limits. Yards. As noted in the table above, the project complies with all minimum yard requirements for the building. Landscaping. The zoning ordinance requires one tree per 1,000 square feet of gross building floor area. Seventy-nine (79) trees are required on the entire site. Fifty-seven (57) existing trees will remain on the site and 27 new trees are proposed. The zoning ordinance also requires at least 473 shrubs – the existing site utilizes alternative landscaping of pollinator wildflower areas and an additional 209 shrubs are proposed. Screening. The zoning ordinance requires all off-street parking areas located within 30 feet of any parcel that is zoned residential and used or subdivided for residential to be screened with landscaping and a solid fence or wall a minimum of eight feet high in the side and rear yard and 48 inches when adjacent to a front yard. An existing 10-foot chain link fence runs along the west property line along with some trees and other natural landscaping providing screening. The project will require the removal and reinstallation of portions of the fence. The boulevard of the parking area has natural plantings installed by the city that provide screening from headlights onto the road. Conditional use permit: Staff and planning commission find the application meets the general requirements for conditional use permits listed in city code section 36-33(b), and the use specific conditions of the zoning district, based on the findings in the draft resolution (attached). Neighborhood meeting: The school district hosted an open house neighborhood meeting on Sept. 11, 2024. Four community members and two councilmembers attended the meeting. A summary of questions from the meeting is attached to this report. Planning commission: The commission held a public hearing on Sept. 18, 2024. One member of the public raised concern about the lateness of notification of the neighborhood meeting in the mail. Commissioners had questions about the security of the site during construction, particularly how students will be kept out of construction areas. The commission recommended approval of the CUP amendment and conditions recommended by staff on a 6-0 vote. The draft meeting minutes are attached for review.

Title: Conditional use permit amendment for Aquila Elementary School, 8500 31st St. W. Applicant: St. Louis Park Public Schools Case No: 24-18-CUP Mr. Walther presented the staff report. Commissioner Weber noted the addition will be built on an existing playground area. He asked if the exterior playground area will be replaced and open at the same time as the addition is built. Mr. Walther stated he is not sure of the timing, but anticipates this would be occurring at the same time as occupancy and start of school. He noted the applicant’s design team representatives can also answer this during the public hearing. Mr. Lovagnini noted the play equipment area will not be disturbed during construction, only the paved basketball courts, which will be replaced. Commissioner Beneke asked for clarification if the CUP is needed because this is a school with more than 20 students, and there is no need for a variance. Mr. Walther stated that is correct and the use has already been approved, and this addition requires an amendment of the site plan which is an official exhibit accompanying the CUP. Commissioner Youngquist asked about one of the conditions of the approval. She asked about 5b and the access from Wooddale and Highway 7, and if that condition should be included or deleted. Mr. Walther stated that is an error and staff can correct that note the accurate street names for this site. Commissioner Hyman asked if construction will begin late this fall, while school is in session. Mr. Walther stated yes and noted the applicant’s design team can also answer schedule questions. Commissioner Hyman asked if the updated neighborhood zoning alleviates the need for this kind of approval in the future. Mr. Walther stated no the proposed zoning code updates will not change the CUP requirement. City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 7b) Page 11 Title: Resolution approving conditional use permit amendment for Aquila Elementary School expansion – 8500 W 31st Street - Ward 3 Chair Divecha opened the public hearing. Ms. Barker, 3037 Aquila Ave., stated she is excited the school is getting this expanded space. She stated she received the letter for the neighborhood meeting was received only two days before the meeting, and asked if going forward notices can be sent out earlier. She added she is happy to see the addition of trees and green space, and asked if that part will be mandatory, noting the large amount of asphalt at Aquila currently. She stated the asphalt does a disservice to the students and she sees a value in this added space. She stated she hopes this will be mandatory and not dropped if costs get too high. Ms. Barker asked if the Three Rivers Park trail project will be done in collaboration with the Aquila project. She stated as a resident she prefers less disruption during the projects and stated when she asked both the school and Three Rivers about this, neither of them had any information about each other’s projects. She asked that staff make sure these conversations happen so the projects can align as much as possible. Mr. Walther stated this site plan and is the expectation moving forward. The architect, Mr. Lovagnini, answered the questions posed. He stated the asphalt will be removed where the addition will be and green space and trees will be added, including the play area as well. He noted that was a request from the district and will not change. He added he did not have information about the Three Rivers trail project but will pass this information on to the construction manager, so they can coordinate and minimize any disruption. Mr. Lovagnini stated they will work to complete the addition by the beginning of the next school year in 2025, and that is why the project is being pushed forward currently to be sure it is completed. Mr. Lovagnini noted the construction access will be from the current main entrance of the school, with occasional access on the east side as well for delivery of materials. He noted an underground tank will need to be removed, and stated there is no need to create special access for the project. Commissioner Youngquist stated she recommends it because there is a regional trail on the west side of this property, there could be conflicts with bicyclists and large truck hauling materials and staff can vet this. She stated trucks maybe should come down Xylon Avenue instead of Aquila Avenue. Mr. Lovagnini agreed and stated the city and construction manager can discuss that. Commissioner Merten added this information will also be important to get out to the neighborhood. Commissioner Weber stated this project is part of the referendum approved by residents, and noted it is odd the school district does not have a representative at tonight’s meeting. He stated this is a voter-approved initiative, adding he is enthusiastic about this project as it will help meet current enrollment needs. He added he would like it to be communicated City council meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 7b) Page 12 Title: Resolution approving conditional use permit amendment for Aquila Elementary School expansion – 8500 W 31st Street - Ward 3 throughout the city, noting again he is disappointed the school district is not at this meeting to promote and speak about the project. Commissioner Merten stated it is an ambitious timeline and she would not want to be in charge of this project. Chair Divecha closed the public hearing. Mr. Walther stated the error in conditions noted in the staff report should be amended to access to the project from 31st Street to Xylon Avenue to Minnetonka Boulevard. He stated the city’s intent is for the haul route to get to major roadways as quickly as possible and limit travel through residential streets. He added his apologies for residents not receiving the neighborhood meeting notice as early as they should have. He stated this information is sent out by the applicant and not the city but added the city’s goal is to give 10-14 days’ notice and at a minimum 7 days’ notice. He stated staff will communicate this to the school district. He clarified the public hearing notice for tonight’s meeting was mailed by the city and met the required minimum of 10-days’ notice. Mr. Walther added staff will contact Three Rivers also about the project. Commissioner Weber noted there is overnight parking allowed on Xylon Avenue and asked if there are any concerns related to that. Mr. Walther stated following city approvals there would be a pre-construction meeting that will address these types of issues including any temporary disruptions to parking. It was moved by Commissioner Weber, seconded by Commissioner Youngquist, to approve the conditional use permit amendment with the correction to the hauling route information noted by staff, and the conditions listed in the staff report. The motion passed unanimously. Page 1 of 1 Aquila Elementary School CUP Open House 09.11.2024 Questions and Answers Q: What will happen to the baseball field? A: The baseball field will remain as-is.

Policy consideration: None. The presentation will explain the development process in St. Louis Park. Summary: The Twin Cities metro area, and the United States as whole, is experiencing a significant housing shortage, leading to decreased affordability across all housing types and limiting homeownership opportunities. According to the 2023 Maxfield Comprehensive Housing Study completed for City of St. Louis Park, there is potential demand in the city for nearly 5,300 new housing units through 2030. The city is in the process of updating its zoning ordinance to make more housing options easier to construct without having to go through the city entitlement process before obtaining a building permit. However, it is anticipated there will still be developments that will require city planning entitlement approvals or requests for financial assistance prior to construction. The development process is a complex, multi-layered, iterative, time consuming, and at times costly journey that includes many project partners. To provide council with a better understanding of the development process, staff will provide an overview of the how a project goes from concept to completion in St. Louis Park. The Twin Cities Housing Alliance (TCHA) has created the attached graphic How Does Housing Development and Financing Work? The graphic walks through a typical development process from the developer’s perspective. During the city council study session, city staff will utilize this graphic to explain how the city’s development approval process fits within the typical development process and will answer city council’s questions. The document has many details, and staff strongly encourages council to read and review the TCHA graphic prior to the presentation on Monday. Financial or budget considerations: None related to this presentation. Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of housing and neighborhood oriented development.

The purpose of this report is to provide information to aid in council’s discussion and subsequent actions related to the proposed cannabis zoning regulations. Policy consideration: • Does city council support the proposed zoning regulations for cannabis operation? • Does city council support limiting the number of cannabis retailers permitted within the city? Summary: St. Louis Park City Council supported legalizing medical and recreational marijuana. The city’s regulatory approach to this industry seeks to provide safe, convenient and equitable access for adult use. The regulations intend to protect children and youth and mitigate potential negative impacts for neighbors of these businesses. Council indicated that regulatory approaches to retail sales similar to on- and off-sale liquor and lower-potency hemp products are appropriate models with some additional controls given this is a new industry for the city. In 2023, the State of Minnesota passed legislation to legalize the possession, use, manufacturing and sale of certain cannabis products. The law establishes the Office of Cannabis Management (OCM) to oversee the regulation of commercial production and sale of cannabis and related products. Municipalities have the ability to enact regulations related to zoning, local registration, and enforcement of state regulations regarding cannabis sales. OCM will not finalize some regulations until 2025. Staff recommend the city permit cannabis retailers with conditions in the C-2, MX-1 and MX-2 zoning districts, along with the existing planned unit developments that allow liquor stores. Staff recommend these businesses be at least 1,000 feet from a school, another cannabis retailer and other specified commercial uses. Staff suggest limiting the number of cannabis retailers to locate within the city to one retailer per 12,500 residents at this time. Also, staff recommend the city permit, with conditions, cannabis operations in the I-G zoning district, provided they are at least 1,000 feet from a school and other cannabis operations. Financial or budget considerations: None related to adopting zoning regulations. Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to being a leader in racial equity and inclusion in order to create a more just and inclusive community for all.

The law establishes the Office of Cannabis Management (OCM) to oversee the regulation of commercial production and sale of cannabis and related products. The OCM is working through the formal rulemaking process to implement the regulatory framework for the adult-use cannabis industry established by the legislation. The agency plans to publish a notice of intent to adopt rules later this year, which will prompt a 30-day formal comment period. The legislation allows for 13 different types of business licenses listed in the table below. The OCM will also issue endorsements to license holders to engage in specific activities such as producing, manufacturing, and sale of medical cannabis for patients. The following table shows the business activities allowed under each license type.

The statewide caps are 100 licenses for mezzobusinesses, 50 licenses for cultivators, 24 licenses for manufacturers and 150 licenses for retailers. Special study session meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 2) Page 3 Title: Cannabis zoning ordinance Local government roles and responsibilities – zoning Municipalities have the ability to enact regulations related to the zoning, local registration, and enforcement of state regulations regarding cannabis sales. Cities may impose reasonable restrictions on the time, place, and manner of land use activities. The restrictions typically include: 1. The location (e.g. zoning districts) where the use is allowed. 2. The review and approval process such as administrative (e.g. permitted by right, permitted with conditions) or quasi-judicial (e.g. conditional use permit). 3. Specific standards and conditions that would mitigate potential nuisances and health and safety concerns that may accompany the use. 4. The manner in which such uses may operate, such as limited hours of operation and/or distance separation requirements from other uses. The legislation allows local governments to enact buffers for cannabis retailers up to 1,000 feet from schools and/or up to 500 feet from residential treatment facilities, athletic facilities, attractions within a public park and childcare facilities. As part of the state licensing process, the OCM will notify a local government when an applicant intends to operate within their jurisdiction and request certification of zoning compliance. Local governments must complete this certification within 30 days of receiving a copy of an application from OCM. If the OCM does not receive a response within 30 days, the legislation allows the OCM to move forward with issuing the license. It’s important to note that the city zoning approval/certification can only be achieved in that timeframe through an administrative process. Local government roles and responsibilities – retail registration Cannabis businesses with the appropriate licenses for retail sales must register with the municipality in which the retail establishment is located, unless the local government has delegated registration authority to the county. Local governments are given authority to suspend a retail registration for up to 30 days, but they may not revoke licenses as this is the responsibility of the OCM. Local governments that register cannabis retailers may also limit the number of cannabis retailers allowed within their jurisdiction, but they must allow for at least one retail location per 12,500 residents. According to the State Demographer population estimates from 2022 and guidance from the OCM, this would equate to a minimum of four retail locations for St. Louis Park. Previous considerations: In 2023, the city enacted a moratorium on cannabis-related businesses until Jan. 1, 2025 to protect the planning process as it researches and considers zoning controls for cannabis products and related activities. It is anticipated that the city will adopt zoning regulations for cannabis businesses prior to the end of 2024 so that they may go into effect on Jan. 1, 2025. Special study session meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 2) Page 4 Title: Cannabis zoning ordinance City council previously discussed zoning regulations for the sale of lower potency hemp products and cannabis products for on- and off-site consumption and provided policy direction to staff. Last month, the planning commission reviewed and provided feedback on the proposed cannabis zoning regulations. Commissioners did not indicate concerns about the proposed districts in which to allow cannabis businesses nor the buffers between cannabis businesses and other uses. The following sections outline the proposed regulations given city council direction for previous policy questions related to the sale of lower potency hemp products and cannabis products. Proposed regulations for off-sale and on-sale of lower potency hemp products As directed by city council, staff recommends maintaining the existing regulations for the off- sale and on-sale of lower potency hemp products. These regulations allow the sale of lower potency hemp products at any place of business where retail, food or beverage sales occur under the condition that they are located more than 300 feet from a school and have the appropriate licenses and registrations. Food and beverage establishments that meet these conditions may also sell lower potency hemp products for on-site consumption. Proposed regulations for on-sale of cannabis products As directed by city council, staff recommends regulating the sale of cannabis edibles and beverages for on-site consumption in the same manner as the city currently regulates the sale of lower potency hemp edibles and beverages for on-site consumption. This would allow the sale of cannabis edibles and beverages for on-site consumption at food and beverage establishments located more than 300 feet from a school. Proposed regulations for off-sale of cannabis products (cannabis retailers) City council previously discussed appropriate buffers for cannabis retailers from other uses including schools, attractions within a public park and childcare facilities. Staff suggested city council consider mirroring the existing regulations for liquor stores which requires this use to locate at least 300 feet from a school. In discussion, some council members indicated a preference for a larger buffer between schools and cannabis retailers. Given this discussion, staff recommend requiring cannabis retailers to locate at least 1,000 feet from schools. The city may also align regulations for liquor stores and cannabis retailers by requiring cannabis retailers to locate at least 1,000 feet from pawnshops, currency exchanges, payday loan agencies, firearm sales and sexually oriented businesses. Additionally, previous city council discussions highlighted uncertainty around the number of cannabis retailers that may want to locate within the city, the desired locations for these businesses, and the likelihood of cannabis retailers clustering in parts of the city. Staff suggests the city prevent concentrations of cannabis retailers by requiring that they locate at least 1,000 feet from another cannabis retailer. Special study session meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 2) Page 5 Title: Cannabis zoning ordinance During the development of these recommendations, staff analyzed the potential impact of the proposed separation requirements from schools and other businesses on the available land on which cannabis retailers would be permitted to locate. The analysis evaluated the percentage of land zoned for C-2, MX-1, MX-2 and applicable PUDs where cannabis retailers would be permitted or prohibited under the proposed ordinance. According to the analysis, the recommended regulations would permit cannabis retailers to locate in approximately 88% of land zoned for C-2 general commercial, 85% of land zoned for MX-1 vertical mixed use, 84% of land within the existing PUDs that permit liquor stores (2, 10, 22, and 24) and 37% of land zoned for MX-2 neighborhood mixed use. (Note: The percentage of land zoned MX-2 in which cannabis retailers are permitted to locate, after applying the proposed buffers, is lower compared to the other zoning districts given the proximity of these properties to St. Louis Park High School). Staff find this is sufficient land to allow at least the minimum number of cannabis retailers required by statute to locate within the city. Present considerations: Proposed land use descriptions and conditions for cannabis businesses Staff recommend grouping various cannabis businesses into two categories for zoning purposes: cannabis retailer and cannabis operation. Cannabis retailer land use description and regulations: Cannabis retailer means a retailer that sells packaged cannabis products to the general public and medical patients. This land use description would apply to cannabis businesses with the following licenses: cannabis retailer, cannabis microbusiness with a retail endorsement, cannabis mezzobusiness with a retail endorsement and medical cannabis combination business. This term excludes cannabis operation, which is defined on page 6. In previous conversations, city council supported the staff recommendation to align regulations for cannabis retailers closely with those the city has for liquor stores by allowing cannabis retailers as a use permitted with conditions in the C-2 general commercial, MX-1 vertical mixed use and MX-2 neighborhood mixed use districts. Staff also suggests allowing cannabis retailers as a use permitted with conditions in existing planned unit developments (PUD) that permit liquor stores. Additional conditions for cannabis retailers the city can consider include limiting the hours of operation, prohibiting in-vehicle sales or service (e.g., drive throughs, curbside pickup), prohibiting on-site consumption of lower potency hemp and cannabis edibles and beverages, and requiring all uses to be completely contained within an enclosed building. 89% 86% 37% 84% 11% 14% 63% 16% C-2 MX-1 MX-2 PUD Permitted Portion Prohibited Portion Special study session meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 2) Page 6 Title: Cannabis zoning ordinance Type of business Permitted with conditions Separation requirements Cannabis retailer C-2, MX-1, MX-2, PUD 2, PUD 10, PUD 22, PUD 24 1,000 feet from schools 1,000 feet from a pawn shop, currency exchange, payday loan agency, firearm sale or sexually oriented business 1,000 feet from other cannabis retailers Cannabis operation land use description and regulations: Cannabis operation means a facility where cannabis is grown, processed, or manufactured into various products such as edibles, concentrates, wax, oils and tinctures. This land use description would apply to cannabis businesses with the following licenses: cannabis microbusiness, cannabis mezzobusiness, cannabis cultivator, cannabis manufacturer, cannabis wholesaler, cannabis transporter, cannabis testing facility, cannabis event organizer and cannabis delivery service. This term excludes cannabis retailer. Staff recommends allowing cannabis operation as a use permitted with conditions in the I-G general industrial district. Cannabis operation would be required to locate a minimum of 1,000 feet from schools and 1,000 feet from another cannabis operation. Staff also recommends permitting cannabis retailers as an accessory use to a cannabis operation within the I-G general industrial district provided they meet the same conditions required for cannabis retailers as a principal use. Type of business Permitted with conditions Separation requirements Cannabis operation I-G 1,000 feet from schools 1,000 feet from another cannabis operation Staff acknowledges that a cannabis operation may generate odors and noise. Staff finds that the existing nuisance ordinances, general provisions and performance standards for industrial districts, district- and use-specific provisions, and architectural design standards in the city code will help mitigate impacts and provide regulatory tools to address nuisances caused by any of these activities. Existing provisions limit noise, odor, vibration, glare, heat and waste material; limit hours of operation when abutting residential property; require noise-producing portions of a development to locate away from adjacent residential areas; and prohibit interior and exterior bars, grills, mesh or similar obstructions on doors and windows. As mentioned above, the OCM will also complete the formal rulemaking process which will include environmental controls on odor limits, water use, energy use and solid waste disposal. Special study session meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 2) Page 7 Title: Cannabis zoning ordinance Proposed limit on cannabis retailers Staff recommends limiting the number of cannabis retailers allowed to locate within the city to one retailer per 12,500 residents at this time. This limit will only apply to cannabis retailers; it will not apply to lower potency hemp retailers. Council can increase the number allowed in the future if desired. Given that it is difficult to reduce the number of retailers once established, staff finds it in the city’s best interest to take a conservative approach to establishing regulations for cannabis retailers initially as we do not know how many businesses may want to locate in the city. Limiting the number of cannabis retailers will allow the city to track business interest, monitor administration of the new regulations, and adjust as needed. Racial equity implications of regulating cannabis businesses Racial context of cannabis legalization: Understanding the racial context of cannabis legalization is important to establishing regulations that remedy past injustices and achieve equitable outcomes. For decades, the criminalization of marijuana has disproportionately impacted communities of color and inflicted harm that lasts generations. Marijuana convictions negatively impact a person by making it more difficult to secure and maintain employment, housing and government assistance. According to the American Civil Liberties Union, despite legalization of cannabis in 24 states and similar cannabis usage rates between white people and people of color, racial disparities in arrests persist to the extent that a black person is nearly four times more likely than a white person to be arrested for marijuana possession nationwide. Prospective cannabis business owners already face significant challenges and the history of racial injustice amplifies these challenges for communities of color. As an example, given that cannabis is still illegal at the federal level, federally insured banks are often reluctant to provide banking services to cannabis businesses. As a result, it is more difficult for cannabis businesses to find funding as they must rely on private investment over loans from banks or credit unions. Additionally, once these businesses are operational, they are often more vulnerable crime targets as predominantly cash-only businesses. The State of Minnesota has built equity considerations into the adult-use cannabis law that support equitable outcomes at the local level. The legislation establishes a social equity application process to provide early opportunities for communities that experienced a disproportionate, negative impact from cannabis prohibition and cannabis use. Local governments can support this element of the legislation by evaluating whether their proposed regulations will complement or inhibit the state’s efforts. Racial equity impact analysis: In September 2024, staff completed a racial equity impact analysis for local cannabis regulations during which staff identified desired outcomes, evaluated potential unintended consequences of proposed regulations and brainstormed strategies to mitigate these consequences and achieve the desired outcomes. From a zoning perspective, the desired outcomes of cannabis regulations are to 1) limit youth access and exposure to cannabis products and cannabis use, 2) support small and/or locally owned cannabis businesses so that Special study session meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 2) Page 8 Title: Cannabis zoning ordinance they may locate and thrive in our city, and 3) distribute cannabis businesses throughout the city to mitigate disproportionate negative impacts on communities of color resulting for concentrations of these businesses and promote equitable access to these products by adults age 21+. Following this discussion, staff reviewed available demographic and crime data to further assess the equity implications of the proposed zoning ordinance. For example, staff used the city’s Climate Equity Map to identify areas of the city with larger percentages of residents who identify as people of color and areas of the city with comparatively lower median household incomes. Staff compared this data to the zoning districts proposed to permit cannabis businesses to evaluate whether people of color and/or lower-income residents may bear a larger burden compared to white residents and residents with higher incomes. The spatial analysis did not indicate the proposed zoning ordinance would result in a disproportionate impact on these communities. Additionally, staff finds the proposed buffer between cannabis retailers and schools will help reduce youth access and exposure to cannabis products without prohibiting these businesses from locating in each quadrant of the city. The proposed buffer between cannabis retailers will also mitigate concentrating these businesses in one area of the city. Notwithstanding the preliminary findings, it is important to note that this is an ongoing conversation that will likely need to continue after council adoption of the cannabis zoning ordinance. Moving forward, staff will continue to evaluate the racial equity implications of the proposed zoning regulations, develop strategies to achieve desired outcomes and identify metrics to monitor the impact of policy implementation so that the city may adjust as needed. Next steps: Following this discussion and council direction, the planning commission will hold a public hearing on a proposed zoning ordinance and make formal recommendations to city council. The council must take final action on the proposed zoning ordinance by Dec. 2, 2024, in order for the regulations go into effect by the expiration of the city’s moratorium on cannabis-related businesses on Jan. 1, 2025. The council will subsequently need to repeal related licensing regulations and adopt registration requirements.

St. Louis Park Race, Equity and Inclusion Department • 5005 Minnetonka Blvd., St. Louis Park, MN 55416 www.stlouisparkmn.gov • Phone: 952.924.2602 • TTY: 952.924.2518 Racial equity and inclusion analysis: local cannabis regulations On Sept. 11, 2024, a cross-departmental group of St. Louis Park staff convened to conduct a racial equity and inclusion analysis (REIA) of local cannabis regulations. The goal of this session was to assess the equity impacts of local policy decisions related to cannabis legalization and to identify measures to mitigate potential negative consequences. Staff considered four policy questions: 1.How should the city regulate the time, place and manner of cannabis sales, production, cultivation and other operations in the zoning code? 2.Should the city limit the number of cannabis retailers permitted to locate within the city or leave it to the market to determine? 3.Should the city delegate retail registration authority to Hennepin County? 4.Should the city pursue municipal retail sale of cannabis and cannabis products? Summary of racial equity and inclusion analysis Staff began the session by identifying the desired outcomes of regulating cannabis, which focused on limiting youth access and exposure to cannabis and cannabis use and providing relatively convenient access to cannabis for adults of legal age that wish to purchase the product. Other desired outcomes included preserving and protecting air quality, designing regulations that allow the city to adapt quickly to new information and uplifting social equity applicants through local regulations rather than adding obstacles. Following this exercise, staff split into small groups to discuss each policy question. Each group had robust conversations in which they identified the groups impacted by each policy question, opportunities to engage these groups, outstanding uncertainties and concerns and potential consequences of the decision on communities of color. The primary racial equity implications raised during the discussion included the following. (Note: The number next to each bullet point corresponds to the policy question listed above). •How can the city avoid exacerbating existing disparities in communities of color if there are increases in crime associated with cannabis businesses? (1) •How can the city avoid stifling access for social equity applicants that want to locate their business in St. Louis Park? (1) •Do communities of color want cannabis retailers in their neighborhoods? (1) •There is tension between balancing support for social equity applicants and providing the choice for communities of color to distance themselves from cannabis retailers. (2) •If the city maintains registration authority, it may be able to intervene earlier to support social equity applicants. (3) •Municipal retail sales could reduce opportunities for social equity applicants to enter the market by creating additional competition.

Staff should use quantitative, spatial and qualitative data to help inform policy decisions. Qualitative data may include insights from other cities or tribal nations in Minnesota that have adopted local cannabis regulations or feedback from community engagement. Staff recommend developing an engagement plan to provide the community with opportunities to share input on local cannabis policies. Quantitative data may include spatial analyses of the proposed zoning policies, crime statistics and demographic data. 2.Identify metrics to evaluate progress toward desired outcomes. Staff should identify indicators to monitor the impact of local policies and set milestones to assess progress toward the city’s desired outcomes. For example, the city can use the registration process to collect demographic and geographic data to evaluate who is opening cannabis businesses and where they are locating. 3.Revisit the racial equity impact analysis regularly. Staff agree that this is an ongoing conversation that will continue after policy approval and implementation. The city should use available data to continuously evaluate the racial equity impact of cannabis legalization and local policies. It is important that staff have a platform to share information and reconvene as needed. In general, given the breadth of this discussion, staff believes it would be valuable to further analyze the racial equity impact of each policy question to dive deeper into the individual topics. The racial equity impact analysis produced great ideas to mitigate inequitable outcomes, but it also raised many unanswered questions for the city to consider moving forward. These include, but are not limited to: •Does this decision perpetuate negative messaging about cannabis users? •How does this decision successfully prevent youth exposure and access to cannabis? •How is this decision supporting the choice to not be exposed to cannabis? •What decisions might be beneficial to table for the future? •How might this decision create a barrier for social equity applicants? Special study session meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 2) Title: Cannabis zoning update Page 12 Meeting: Special study session Meeting date: October 7, 2024 Written report: 3 Executive summary Title: Wooddale Station Redevelopment update – Ward 2 Recommended action: Review staff’s redevelopment team recommendation and provide feedback. Policy consideration: Does the Economic Development Authority (EDA) wish to enter into a preliminary development agreement with Roers Companies to redevelop the Wooddale Avenue Station site? Summary: In August 2020, the city distributed a request for proposals (RFP) for the METRO Green Line Extension Light Rail Transit (LRT) Wooddale Avenue Station site to the Twin Cities development community. The site is on the northeast corner of 36th Street and Wooddale Avenue. The EDA selected Saturday Properties and Anderson Companies to redevelop the site. In September 2023, Saturday Properties informed the EDA that they were unable to proceed with their proposed “OlyHi” development due to insurmountable, adverse market conditions. In early 2024, staff sought a new qualified developer to prepare an alternative development proposal for the site consistent with the city’s vision as identified in the original RFP. That vision includes an active, vibrant and connected development where people can affordably live, work and recreate with the opportunities and advantages of proximity to LRT, and one that further advances the city’s five strategic priorities. After numerous conversations and meetings with various development companies, staff recommends the EDA enter into a preliminary development agreement with Roers Companies for the Wooddale Avenue Station site. Roers Companies has over 13,000 multi-family units in its portfolio, including the recently completed Risor development in St. Louis Park. The redevelopment team has prepared a redevelopment proposal for the Wooddale Station site that furthers the city’s vision for the property and is similar to the previously approved OlyHi plan. A summary of the proposal follows in the discussion section of the report. Financial or budget considerations: The precise purchase price of the EDA’s property, as well as the amount of any financial assistance necessary to bring this latest Wooddale Station redevelopment to fruition, have yet to be determined. It is anticipated the proposed redevelopment, which includes significant affordable housing, will require some combination of public financial assistance. Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of housing and neighborhood oriented development.

The 1.68-acre site is currently occupied by a vacant 16,700 square foot commercial building and an excess municipal parking lot. Immediately to the east is 5802 36th St. W., a 1.4-acre property owned by Standal Properties. It is occupied by a one-story, multi-tenant commercial building and parking lot. Wooddale Avenue Station site and adjacent property Background: A summary of previous actions and milestones is provided below. For more than 20 years, the Wooddale Avenue Station site has been planned to be a transit- oriented development. At the Feb. 10, 2020 study session, the EDA envisioned the site as an important community hub for mixed-income housing, neighborhood business and transit. Accordingly, the EDA issued a request for proposals (RFP) in July 2020 for a qualified developer to construct a development that provides the following: Special study session meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 3) Page 3 Title: Wooddale Station Redevelopment update – Ward 2 • Affordable multifamily housing that exceeds the city’s Inclusionary Housing Policy requirements and facilitates multicultural and intergenerational living (i.e. includes larger size units); • Smaller scale, affordable, ground floor commercial spaces conducive for neighborhood businesses; • Attractive, bold and creative architecture; • Building and site designs that incorporate numerous “green” elements including renewable energy sources and serve as a showcase for environmental sustainability; • Numerous accommodations for pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders, and automobiles, including electric bikes, electric vehicles, and possibly car sharing; • A public plaza or community space with unique community landmark or feature; • High quality site amenities and public art; • Connections to nature through green features such as enhanced landscaping, green roofs or living wall systems. The EDA also sought a development proposal that seamlessly integrated with the adjacent METRO Green Line Extension Wooddale Avenue Station and connected to the surrounding neighborhood. At the Dec. 14, 2020, study session, the EDA determined that Saturday Properties/Anderson Companies’ (“developers”) proposal most closely aligned with the city’s vision, development objectives and preferred programming for the site. Subsequently, the EDA entered into a preliminary development agreement with the developers on Feb. 16, 2021. The developers received city approvals for a preliminary and final plat and a preliminary and final PUD for the proposed “OlyHi” development in August 2022. In 2023, the developers and staff negotiated a purchase and redevelopment contract for the EDA’s consideration. The EDA was also awarded more than $2.1 million in grant funds from Hennepin County and the Metropolitan Council for the OlyHi development. In September 2023, Saturday Properties informed the EDA that due to insurmountable, adverse market conditions they were unable to proceed with the OlyHi development proposal and the preliminary development agreement was terminated. Present considerations: In early 2024, staff sought a new developer to prepare an alternative development proposal for the Wooddale Station site consistent with the city’s vision as identified in the original RFP. After numerous conversations and meetings with various development companies, it was clear that Roers Companies’ (“redeveloper”) development concept most closely aligned with the city’s priorities and vision for the Wooddale Avenue Station site. Additionally, Roers is a reputable developer and has the financial capacity to construct a large, mixed-use development as is envisioned for the site. The development team: Plymouth-based Roers Companies was founded in 2012 by Brian and Kent Roers and is an emerging national leader in multifamily real estate investment, development, construction and property management. Today it has over 13,000 multi-family Special study session meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 3) Page 4 Title: Wooddale Station Redevelopment update – Ward 2 units built or under construction, including the recently completed Risor development in St. Louis Park. In 2024, Roers Companies was named one of the finalists for Ernst & Young’s Entrepreneur of the Year 2024 Heartland Award, which celebrates entrepreneurs from the mid- west who have built thriving businesses while making a positive difference in their communities. Roers companies constructs both market rate and all-affordable developments in 15 states. Roers Companies has a unique business model, which has allowed it to successfully complete complex real estate developments during challenging economic times. Rather than relying solely on developer equity and bank financing for its projects, Roers Companies utilizes investments from qualified individual investors to provide additional sources of private equity to help finance projects. Development proposal: Roers Companies plans to purchase and redevelop the EDA-owned lot located at 5950 36th St. W. as well as the Standal property to the east into a mixed-use, mixed- income transit-oriented development. Roers proposes a six-story building with approximately 263 residential units, of which over 20% (57) would be restricted to affordable rent levels, approximately 7,000 to 9,000 square feet of ground floor commercial, one or two public plazas, surface and structured parking, and several rooftop amenity spaces. Roers Companies’ redevelopment proposal is similar to the former OlyHi development, approved by city council in 2022. Proposed site plan concept 1 In the proposed site plan concept 1, a public plaza would be oriented toward Wooddale Avenue and a second plaza would face the Wooddale Station LRT platform. Commercial uses are N Structured Special study session meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 3) Page 5 Title: Wooddale Station Redevelopment update – Ward 2 proposed on the western side of the site fronting 36th Street, Wooddale Avenue and the LRT Station. A residential lobby, fitness area, and ground floor residential units are proposed on the east side of the building, lining the ground floor parking beneath the residential housing above. Ground floor residential units would have individual entrances. A pedestrian way through the building provides visual and physical connections from 36th St. to the plaza area and surface parking lot. A one-way driveway into the site from 36th Street is located between the two sections of the building, breaking the building in half both visually and functionally. This driveway provides commercial users access to a surface parking lot, and would be used for residential move-ins, commercial loading, and package delivery services. Residential parking would be accessed via a driveway from Yosemite Avenue and structured parking would be provided both below and above grade. Concept 1 building massing Proposed site plan concept 2: Roers Companies is also exploring a second concept, that combines the two plazas into one. The plaza would be located near Wooddale Avenue and the LRT Station platform. This option would provide better site lines to both the station and plaza and creates an overall larger gathering area. This design would separate the plaza from the surface parking lot and shortens the overall building length along 36th Street. The remainder of the building’s attributes remain similar to concept one. Special study session meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 3) Page 6 Title: Wooddale Station Redevelopment update – Ward 2 Proposed site plan concept 2 Standal Properties property: Roers Companies recently submitted a letter of intent to acquire the adjacent property at 5802 36th St. W. from Standal Properties. The parties hope to complete negotiations on a purchase agreement soon. The redevelopment proposal is contingent upon Roers Companies acquiring both the EDA and Standal Properties. Standal Properties has been preparing its property for redevelopment in recent years and is working with existing tenants to relocate them, where possible, to other Standal-owned properties in St. Louis Park. Additionally, Verizon Wireless had several antennae on a tower structure located on the property, which were removed in September 2024. Inclusionary housing policy: The proposed redevelopment would provide more than twice the minimum amount of affordable housing required by the city’s inclusionary housing policy. Roers Companies proposes 10% of the units be affordable to households earning up to 50% of area median income (AMI), another 10% of the units at 60% AMI, plus four units at 30% AMI. A total of 57 affordable units are proposed. This is similar to the affordability levels previously contemplated in the former OlyHi development, except Roers Companies is also proposing 30% AMI units be included. The number of affordable units proposed is also similar to the all-affordable Union Park Flats development (60 units), however, the affordable units at the Wooddale Avenue Station site would be fully integrated with market rate units. Structured N Special study session meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 3) Page 7 Title: Wooddale Station Redevelopment update – Ward 2 The city’s inclusionary housing policy requires at least seven three-bedroom units for a building of this size. The redeveloper preliminarily proposes the following unit mix, which includes 70% of the units sized as two and three bedrooms: Unit type Unit count Percentage of total Alcove 18 7% 1 bedroom 59 23% 2 bedroom 126 49% 3 bedroom 54 21% Total* 259 100% *The preliminary unit mix does not add up to the full 263 units shown in the redevelopment proposal. The redevelopment team is still refining building plans. Strategic priorities: Below is a summary of how Roers Companies’ proposal for the Wooddale Avenue Station site would meet the city’s strategic priorities, including adherence to the city’s green building and diversity, equity and inclusion policies. • St. Louis Park is committed to being a leader in racial equity and inclusion in order to create a more just and inclusive community for all. The redevelopment will adhere to the city’s diversity, equity and inclusion policy for the goals and quarterly reports related to the hiring of women and Black, Indigenous, and people of color/Asian American and Pacific Islander (BIPOC/AAPI) owned business enterprises, peripheral businesses, and workforce employees. Roers Companies intends to utilize the Roers construction division to construct the building, and they, along with Roers Residential (Roers’ in-house management company) are committed to equitable hiring practices that produce diverse slates of qualified candidates. Roers intends to be the long-term owners and property managers for the redevelopment. Roers’ property management team has worked closely with the city’s housing staff to manage other inclusionary units in St. Louis Park, including Zelia on 7 and Risor. The company understands and has experience adhering to the city’s inclusionary housing rental and reporting requirements. The redeveloper is also committed to creating both resident and community events that are culturally inclusive once the building is operational. • St. Louis Park is committed to continue to lead in environmental stewardship. The proposed redevelopment would meet the city’s revised Green Building Policy requirements and will include solar arrays on the building’s rooftop. The team will participate in Xcel Energy’s design assistance program and will use energy modeling to inform decisions for envelope, mechanical and electrical systems. Building electrification will be explored. Occupancy sensing light controls will be installed in common areas and parking garages. High efficiency heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC), Energy Star windows, lighting and appliances will be used throughout the redevelopment in addition to low flow kitchen and bathroom fixtures. It will also incorporate an electric vehicle charging station and abundant bike parking. Additionally, the redevelopment Special study session meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 3) Page 8 Title: Wooddale Station Redevelopment update – Ward 2 provides open spaces, enhanced landscaping and innovative stormwater systems. The redevelopment team also plans to explore reuse of gray water on-site. • St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of housing and neighborhood- oriented development. The proposal includes the redevelopment of two key properties along 36th Street and fronting the Wooddale LRT Station. By combining these two properties, the redevelopment can take advantage of the entire block’s frontage and topography to create a more spacious site design that facilitates a truly mixed-use, mixed-income, transit-oriented development with comfortable and welcoming public spaces. By spreading the redevelopment across both properties, it reduces the density of the block and creates efficiencies than if both parcels were developed separately. The proposed redevelopment would include a total of 263 multifamily housing units of which 57 would be restricted to affordable rent levels. Specifically, 26 units (10 percent) will be available to households earning up to 50 percent area median income, another 27 units (10 percent) will be available to households earning up to 60 percent area median income, and four units will be available to households earning up to 30 percent of area median income. The number of affordable units proposed is similar to the all-affordable Union Park Flats development (60 units), however, the affordable units at the Wooddale Avenue Station site will be fully integrated with market rate units. The building is logically sited to complement the existing development along 36th Street in scale and massing, with wide sidewalks, and active street frontages. By locating the buildings along the outer edge of 36th Street, it makes the public spaces feel protected and more comfortable for public and private gatherings. The proposal includes approximately 7,000 to 9,000 square feet of ground floor commercial space with frontage facing both the Wooddale Avenue LRT Station platform and 36th Street. The city has worked diligently in recent decades to create a commercial corridor along 36th Street, and this proposal is consistent with that vision. Staff are working with the developer to design a portion of the commercial spaces to be more affordable in nature. The commercial space fronting Wooddale Avenue also provides an opportunity for innovative placemaking, setting this station apart and making it attractive for visitors whether traveling by foot, bike, light rail or car. The redevelopment offers public plaza spaces, and the potential for community members to utilize the residential amenity spaces for public meetings. The public plazas provide opportunities for programed events and activities for residents and the community throughout the year. It is anticipated the commercial uses will activate the interior plaza spaces. • St. Louis Park is committed to providing a variety of options for people to make their way around the city comfortably, safely and reliably. The redevelopment is designed to be welcoming so as to invite the neighborhood and trail users through the project to safely access the LRT. The site plan accommodates all modes of transportation and has been designed for people first with wide sidewalks and pedestrian connections around and through the site. The redevelopment team has set the buildings further north to accommodate these multi-modal facilities. Special study session meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 3) Page 9 Title: Wooddale Station Redevelopment update – Ward 2 The plan is fully integrated with the Wooddale LRT Station, bringing the building to the same grade as the platform crossings. This makes the transition from the plaza to the station platform seamless. The site has been designed to provide convenient commercial and residential parking. The commercial parking is provided in a surface lot that is accessed from 36th Street, and all residential parking is accessed from Yosemite Avenue. The vehicular circulation patterns follow the recommendations from the traffic studies that were completed for a previous development proposal for this site. Approximately 1.45 parking spaces per unit are proposed. • St. Louis Park is committed to creating opportunities to build social capital through community engagement. The redevelopment planning of the EDA’s property has undergone robust public participation processes, including community outreach with the neighborhood, local businesses and various special interest groups. Roers Companies’ plan incorporates feedback provided to former development concepts into its proposed redevelopment. Roers would also work with the community to provide placemaking opportunities within the site area including public art. The redevelopment will include multiple public spaces and the redeveloper will work with staff to create programming that enables public use of these spaces, including use of the building’s community room. Request for financial assistance: Roers maintains that due to the extraordinary costs associated with redeveloping the subject properties and the inclusion of 57 units with below market rents the proposed redevelopment will not achieve a market rate of return sufficient to attract financing. Consequently, the redeveloper intends to apply for tax increment financing assistance through the establishment of a redevelopment TIF district. Should the council/EDA wish to pursue the proposed redevelopment, staff will work with the EDA’s financial consultant, Ehlers, to verify whether in fact a financial gap exists in the project’s financial proforma and determine the appropriate level of assistance, if any. Recommendations: Roers Companies’ proposal closely aligns with the city’s visions for the Wooddale Station site as identified in the original RFP, including an active, vibrant and connected development where people can affordably live, work and recreate with the opportunities and advantages of proximity to LRT, and one that further facilitates the city’s five strategic priorities. Roers Companies’ proposal is also very similar to the former OlyHi development, which would allow the EDA to utilize the previously awarded grant funds from Hennepin County and the Metropolitan Council for this development. Staff recommends the EDA enter into a preliminary development agreement with Roers Companies to redevelop the Wooddale Avenue Station site and adjacent property. Under a preliminary development agreement (PDA), the EDA and Roers Companies would agree to work cooperatively together toward a mutually acceptable mixed-use development plan and a purchase and redevelopment contract for the EDA property. The purpose of the PDA Special study session meeting of October 7, 2024 (Item No. 3) Page 10 Title: Wooddale Station Redevelopment update – Ward 2 is to formalize the parties’ respective responsibilities relative to further defining the Wooddale Station redevelopment project consistent with the parties’ mutual objectives. The PDA would also provide Roers Companies with formal permission to access the 5950 36th St. W. to conduct its due diligence. During the term of the PDA, Roers Companies would be provided with exclusive rights to negotiate acquisition of the EDA’s property. Next steps: Assuming general EDA support for the above redevelopment proposal, staff intends to draft a preliminary development agreement with Roers Companies for the EDA’s future consideration. Any suggestions or concerns should be shared with staff. The EDA will also be asked to consider a resolution stating that the vacant (former Nash Frame) building on the EDA-owned property at 5950 36th St. W. is substandard, meaning it does not meet current building code and would need significant improvements to bring it into compliance. This finding will enable the EDA/city to include the property in a future redevelopment TIF district.
