Overview The newly approved Comprehensive Plan has designated several sites within the City differently than currently zoned. The City will now go through a process to rezone these sites. One site is the current Jacob's Trading site located at 8098 Excelsior Boulevard. This property is located on the east side of Hopkins and was fonnerly the Rainbow site. After being vacant for many years, Jacob's Trading has moved in and has renovated the landscaping along Excelsior Boulevard. Primary Issues to Consider • What is the Comprehensive Plan designation? �� • What is the existing zoning of the subject site? • What uses does the Business Park zoning allow? • Can the property operate as an industrial use? • Should the site be rezoned from I-2 to Business Park? • Why is this rezoning back for Planning Commission action?

ZN]0-4 Page 2 --� Primarv Issues to Consider • What is the Comprehensive Plan designation? The Coinprehensive Plan has designated the site as Business Park. • What is the e�sting zoning of the subject site? The site is zoned I-2, General Industrial. • What does the Business Park zoning allow? The Business Park zoning district allows office and a limited amount of warehouse. Limited retail is allowed if the product is manufactured on site. • Should the site be rezoned from I-2 to Business Park? The I-2 zoning is an industrial zoning. With the proposed LRT to be constructed to the north of the site, we expect that in the future this site will be redeveloped. When the site is redeveloped it will have to be redeveloped as a Business Park use. � • Can the property operate as an industrial use? The site can operate as an industrial use with all the existing tenants or new tenants. There is no time period that any tenants are required to move. Some of the uses will become legal non-conforming and will not be able to be expanded. The staff does concur that the site will probably not be redeveloped this year, but we are looking to the future. When this site is ready for redevelopment, it will be zoned for the use that the Comprehensive Plan process detennined would be the best use. • Why is this rezoning back for Planning Commission action? The owner of the building, Brad Hoyt, received the hearing notice after the ineeting. The City Attorney and staff felt that because the notice was not received before the meeting the City should hold another public meeting to give all people that want to speak the opportunity.. Alternatives 1. Recoinmend approval of the rezoning. By recommending approval of the rezoning, the City Council will consider a recommendation of approval. � 2. Recommend denial of the rezoning. By recorrunending denial of the rezoning, the City ZN 10-4 Page 3 Council will consider a recommendation of denial. If the Planning Coinmission considers this alternative, findings will have to be identified that support this alteinative. � 3. Continue for further infonnation. If the Plaruiing Cominission indicates that further information is needed, the itein should be continued. � , � Hopkins City Code (Zoning) 520.01 �� (Revised 12-28-06) Section 520 - Zoninq; qeneral provisions 520.01.

Overvie�v The newly approved Comprehensive Plan has designated several sites within the City differently than currently zoned. The City will now go through a process to rezone these sites. One site is the office building at 7630 Excelsior Boulevard. This parcel is in both Hopkins and St. Louis Park, the east 30 feet of the property is in St. Louis Park. The majority of the building is in Hopkins. The building is an office and warehouse use. ^ Primarv Issues to Consider • What is the Comprehensive Plan designation? • What is the existing zoning of the subject site? • What does the Business Park zoning allow? • What has St. Louis Park zoned and guided their part of the building? • Should the site be rezoned from I-2 to Business Park?

II C ll k i � II a i I � l i�� I € `r � s ' I � i � ZN10-6 Page 2 --� Primary Issues to Consider • What is the Comprehensive Plan designation? The Comprehensive Plan has designated the site as Business Park. • What is the existing zoning of the subject site? The site is zoned I-2, General Industrial. • What does the Business Park zoning allow? The Business Park zoning district allows office and a limited amount of warehouse. Limited retail is allowed if the product is manufactured on site. • What has St. Louis Park zoned and guided their part of the building? St. Louis Park has guided the parcel IG, General Industrial. The parcel is zoned IND, Industrial. --� • Should the site be rezoned from I-2 to Business Park? The I-2 zoning is an industrial zoning. The existing use of this building is an office and warehouse use. With the proposed LRT to the north it is perceived that this site would have a higher use than an industrial use. The current uses can remain in the building. The new zoning will be triggered either when the site is vacant for a period of one year or the site is redeveloped. Alternatives 1. Recorrunend approval of the rezoning. By recoinmending approval of the rezoning, the City Council will consider a recoirunendation of approval. 2. Recommend denial of the rezoning. By recoinmending denial of the rezoning, the City Council will consider a recommendation of denial. If the Planning Commission considers this alternative, fndings will have to be identified that support this alternative. 3. Continue for further information. If the Plaruling Commission indicates that further information is needed, the itein should be continued. �'\ �� ' — - -- � —� - � -- -. _ _ --- �__ i i , —--- �--- - � � � -- , - _ m i � � --- � , � � � , . � �� -_ �_ i� � , ' !;.. � _ � a � . � I.. 1 8 .. � _i t " z � � � .. � �. �_.I, � �F. � i ,. � ._.. h � - � ...
