Detailed Background.
Site Characteristics
The subject site is situated between a liquor store to the west and a
vacant office building to the east. An alley separates the
residential district from the applicants property. Super Valu is
located to the north and a residential area to the south.
Access
The access to the site will be from the existing curb cuts on Monroe
Avenue, Milwaukee Street, and Excelsior Avenue. A new curb cut is
proposed on Jackson Avenue. An existing curb cut on Excelsior Avenue
will be closed.
In the future, the curb cut on Milwaukee Street may be closed because
of the changes with the Super Valu access. The changes in the Super
Valu access will not affect this site significantly.
The applicant has discussed with the Director of Engineering moving
the new curb cut on Jackson Avenue further north toward Excelsior
Avenue. The Director of Engineering has approved the curb cut toward
Excelsior.
Landscaping

The site requires eight trees. The applicant has distributed the
plantings on three islands on the three lots for a unified look. The
landscape plan also shows 19 shrubs on the three sites Instead of
sod as the site plan reflects, the applicant is proposing rock because
it is easier to maintain.
Grading /Drainage
The Director of Engineering has reviewed the drainage and found it
acceptable. The site will use surface drainage as is currently used.
Fire Marshal
• The Fire Marshal has reviewed the plans and noted that the proposed
building is required to be sprinkled.

The new building will have a brick and stucco exterior. The brick
will attempt to match the brick on the existing building to the west.
The stucco trim will accent the building along the top of the building
and around the doors. The stucco trim will also be on the liquor
store to the west.

Zoning /Guide Plan
The current zoning of the subject site is B -3. The B -3 district
allows retail uses.
The existing Comprehensive Plan designates the subject site as B2,3.
The new plan designates the site as commercial.
The use as proposed complies with land use of both the zoning and the
Comprehensive Plan.
Parking
The new building will require 15 parking spaces. The site plan shows
18 parking spaces on 408 East Excelsior. However, since all three
sites will share a common lot, it probably is wiser to evaluate the
parking situation on all three sites
All three sites require 44 parking spaces. The site plan shows 48
spaces. Overall, the site has enough parking.
Time Schedule
The applicant
pp icant is proposing the demolition of the vacant building this
year.

Primary Issues to Consider.
o Will the proposed building impact the surrounding area?
The impact to the area should be a positive one. The new building is
an improvement to the site and area. The existing building on the
site is old and deteriorating. The existing building also creates a
traffic visibility problem because it is so close to Excelsior Avenue.
Along with the new building, the liquor store to the west will have
its facade upgraded to match the new building. The new building and
the liquor store will appear as one building.
The residential area to the south is separated from the subject site
by an alley. This alley provides a buffer from the business area.
Although there is parking behind the buildings, most activity will
take place in the front.
o What are the conditions of the Redevelopment Agreement between the
owner and the HRA?
The HRA Board has approved a motion to finance a portion of this
project. Specifically these would involve payment of demolition costs
which are estimated at $12,000.
A Redevelopment Agreement would be executed between the HRA and the
property owner. This agreement would require that the new
construction take place by 1990. If this does not occur, he would be
required to reimburse the HRA for the demolition costs it had paid.
The subject site, following demolition and prior to new construction,
will be improved for parking.
The following are the conditions of the Redevelopment Agreement:
demolition of existing building at 408 East Excelsior Avenue
within 90 days of execution of the Redevelopment Agreement.
- new construction to start no later than July 1, 1990. The HRA
Board would consider an extension for justifiable reasons.
- the new construction would have to be completed within six
months from the start date:
- if the owner is unable to undertake the new construction as
detailed in the Redevelopment Agreement,_ he would be required
to repay the Authority for the demolition costs in monthly
installments over a three year period at prime rate.
Landscape plans could be altered at a future date depending
upon what happens with the roadway system in this area re:
Super Valu /Red Owl redesigns
- site would have to be improved with 1 1/2 inches of asphalt
with acceptable base following demolition and prior to new
construction. If new construction is not undertaken, the site

Alternatives.
1. Approve the Conditional Use Permit as proposed with
Conditions. By approving the Conditional Use Permit the

Use Permit, the proposed building will not be able to be
constructed.
3. Continue for further information. If the Commission feels

Mr. Hung Van Dinh

ACCESS TO EXCELSIOR BOULEVARD, CSAH 3
Hung:
As we discussed, Hennepin County will not allow direct
access from your sites at 408 and 420 onto Excelsior
Boulevard, County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 3. Our
policy is to limit access where possible, particularly
when city street access is available. In this instance,
with CSAH 3 carrying over 20,000 vehicles per day,
limiting access is very appropriate.
We strongly recommend that overall site circulation be
evaluated, including the liquor store, and that all
access be via Milwaukee Street, Jackson Street, and /or
the municipal alley.
However, if the City of Hopkins approves a site plan
showing access to CSAH 3, the County will be forced to
allow access under permit from this office.
If there are further questions, please call.
Sincerely,
Cam''
