3. PUBLIC HEARINGS:
A. Public Hearing to Consider a Request by Centra Homes LLC to amend
Karston Cove CUP/PUD, and Consider Preliminary Plat, and Final Plat
entitled Karston Cove 4th Addition
Brixius presented to the commissioners that Centra North LLC (the parent company of Centra
Homes) has submitted an application for an amended CUP/PUD, a preliminary plat, and final
plat for property located along the south side of 64th Street NE. The proposed plat includes the
removal of 29 townhome lots from the Karston Cove 3rd Addition and re-platting the site into
one outlot.
Planning Commission Meeting Minutes Page 2
Regular Meeting of September 13, 2016
This Plat was originally approved in 2004, with a CUP/PUD and included the 14 lots to the
North. The site is zoned R-5, Medium Density Multi Family, and allows townhomes of this
nature. When the recession hit in 2008, the property went back to the bank and has been
purchased by Centra Homes LLC. They are not inclined to build the attached townhomes that
were approved with the original approval. They are asking for a return on their security on the
property, which is due this November, 2016. The applicants’ intent is to vacate the current plat,
obtain their security, and eventually develop this area with a more desirable product within the
residential market.
With the proposed 4th Addition, the 14 lots to the north would be re-platted as an outlot. If it goes
to an outlot, it is treated as vacant land, and per code, we will not issue a building permit to an
outlot. Any future development will have to come through the subdivision process to create lots
for a building permit.
Brixius brought up the issue of the size of the association once the original developer left the
scene. If we approve this outlot, there will need to be a new development contract recorded with
the property, and we want to leave the option for the City to require any future development on
Outlot A to be members of this association. This would help with association costs being spread
over more property owners.
Other key issues are drainage and utility easements, curb cut access and sidewalk. The applicants
are not proposing any changes to the zoning map as part of the current request.
Albertville is recommending approval with the following conditions:
1. The city retains the option to require the future development on the outlot on the south
side of 64th Street NE to join with the existing neighborhood association on the north side
through a revised PUD development agreement.
2. The City vacates the easements over Karston Cove 3rd Addition provided the 4th Addition
final plat is revised to dedicate the original 1st Addition easements over the wetlands,
ponds, and drainage ways. Said easements shall be subject to the review and approval of
the City Engineer prior to recording the final plat.
3. The applicants enter into a development contract with the city that includes the
aforementioned conditions of approval.
Hudson asked for the rational on why we want the future development to join the existing
homeowners association, what is the Cities interest in having the development join the
association. Brixius explained that if the associations are good and healthy (financially stable),
than they do not come and ask the City for expenses that they cannot afford.
Dominick expressed concerns about new residents coming into the association. He mentioned
that the old part of the association is going on 7 years of wear and tear and most of the money
from the new homeowners is being spent on the upkeep of older parts of the association. Brixius
explained that since there has been a decline in attached townhomes, there may be a different
product that goes into this development, but by taking it to an outlot gives this a blank slate and
leaves options open.
Planning Commission Meeting Minutes Page 3
Regular Meeting of September 13, 2016
Motioned by Barthel, seconded by Dominick, to open the Public Hearing. Ayes: Klecker,
Dominick, Barthel, Brempell, Wegner, and Hudson. Nays: None. Absent: Edgren. MOTION
DECLARED CARRIED.
Jeff Hampton presented major concerns about this addition being approved. They are struggling
with having only 14 units currently in their association. With the association being minimal, the
association fees per unit are higher which the members have a hard time affording. Originally,
the development was supposed to have 43 units, and they only have 14 units. They are having a
very difficult time staffing the association. There are also issues that may arise with the
ponds/wetlands that are on the north and west of the current development. The association is
responsible for maintaining this area. After research conducted by the association, the general
maintenance of these ponds can become quite expensive. The association is concerned that if the
plat is vacated, and a new development were to go up and not be included in their association but
drain into their retention ponds, the costs would become unbearable. The association believes
that vacating the plat would not be in the best interest of the association or the City due to future
risks of only having 14 units in the development and operating costs than need to be higher with
so few units. If the plat is to be vacated, the association would like the improvements listed in the
PUD to be done now rather than later. They would also like that any new approved development
plan that is not to be included in the association would require the builder construct a new
retention pond area for their run off somewhere on their building site.
Barthel and Brixius commented that they believe it is possible for the association to combine
with another association to help financially and with the issues of people being on the board.
Brixius expressed that there is a deadline on the development contract that we need to make a
decision on with the escrow.
Hudson wanted the homeowners association to clarify where they stand on the application being
presented. They informed that they oppose, unless there is a way to tie the two developments
together into being one association. Hudson asked what would be ideal for the association.
Jeffrey responded that they would like to see what plans Centra Homes has for the area.
Dominick is wondering the worth of the townhomes, the taxes and the HOA monthly fee. Jeffrey
responded with $170K, taxes are between $1500-$1600, and the HOA fee is $209 currently and
going to raise it to $225 per month just for regular maintenance and upkeep during the seasons.
Dominick asked if there was anything submitted by Centra Homes to date and Brixius explained
that there were none.
David Pattberg with Centra Homes presented his view points. He gave a small history of the lot
on what had happened with the developer that went bankrupt. Centra Homes has owned the land
since 2011. Dominick asked David with Centra Homes if there has been any plans yet to build or
what they plan on doing with this property. David responded that the original building plans are
not going to work anymore due to attached townhomes becoming less popular. He believes that
the market here is not quite ready and strong enough for something that is more creative than
single family. That is why they do not have plans to date with anything. They are still waiting for
Planning Commission Meeting Minutes Page 4
Regular Meeting of September 13, 2016
the market to return, and that is when they will begin to submit plans. They want to vacate what
is here to buy some more time.
Motioned by Barthel, seconded by Dominick, to close the Public Hearing. Ayes: Klecker,
Dominick, Barthel, Brempell, Wegner, and Hudson. Nays: None. Absent: Edgren. MOTION
DECLARED CARRIED.
Dominick believes that we should leave this as is for now and wait for Centra Homes to come
back with a plan and to show us what they are planning.
Barthel motioned to approve staff recommendation, no second.
Motioned by Dominick, seconded by Wegner, to continue the item until an additional concept
is submitted from the developer. Ayes: Klecker, Dominick, Brempell, Wegner and Hudson.
Nays: Barthel. Absent: Edgren. MOTION DECLARED CARRIED.
4. OTHER BUSINESS
A. None.
5. ADJOURNMENT
Motioned by Dominick, seconded by Barthel, to adjourn the meeting at 8:07p.m. Ayes:
Klecker, Dominick, Brempell, Wegner, and Hudson. Nays: None. Absent: Edgren. MOTION
DECLARED CARRIED.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Adam Nafstad
FROM: Alan Brixius
DATE: November 3, 2016
RE: Albertville – Accessory Buildings / Deed Covenants
FILE NO: 163.05 – 16.18
Section 1000.4, Accessory Buildings and Equipment, Provision B.5 reads as follows:
“5. Design Standards/Covenants: These accessory building performance
standards are applicable for all single-family lots in the city, provided, however
that these standards shall not be permitted where these design standards will
supersede design standards or covenants that have been established as part of
an approved residential planned unit development. Property owners shall
demonstrate compliance with approved covenants/design standards with the
submission of a building permit for an accessory building.”
This provision is unique to Albertville in that most communities do not enforce deed
restrictions or covenants. This provision was adopted in response to controlling
accessory buildings in planned unit developments where neighborhood restrictions of
the number and size of accessory buildings were integral to the plat design and
appearance (i.e., Cedar Creek along the golf course, Towne Lakes, etc.). In the past,
the City was receiving outbuilding requests that were contrary to the established
architectural restrictions, putting the homeowners association or individual property
owners at odds with the City. The homeowners association or property owner would
seek enforcement through civil legal means.
In 2015, we had a request from the property owner at 4924 Kassel to construct a
second outbuilding. This lot is within the Albert Villas 6th Addition which has covenants
that limit lots to one outbuilding that may not exceed 120 square feet in area. The
property lot is 27,321 square feet in area and abuts Swamp Lake. While the proposed
building may have met City zoning standards, the building was prohibited based on
Section 1000.4.B.5 above.
6
A second request this June was for a second garage for property located at 10141 49th
Street NE. This lot is in Albert Villas 4th Addition. Review of this subdivision reveals
that the developer of the 4th Addition did not place the same building restrictions on the
4th Addition as they did in the 6th Addition. This lot is 1.99 acres in size and is eligible
for an oversized second accessory building by administrative permit.
This issue was taken to the City Council for direction on September 13, 2016. The City
Council indicated that they did not want to enforce deed covenants, but felt some
protections should be in place to protect the golf course from oversized accessory
buildings. Additionally, subdivisions approved by PUD for flexibility to reduce lot sizes,
lot widths, or setbacks may not have the lot area to support a second oversized
accessory building. To address both concerns, staff is suggesting the attached Zoning
Ordinance amendment.
Section 1 repeals Section 1000.4.B.5 in its entirety.
Section 2 beefs up the criteria for considering conditional use permits for oversized
accessory buildings. Currently, property owners need a conditional use permit for
buildings larger than the size restriction in Section 1004. The additional conditional use
permit criteria attempts to establish standards that protect single family neighborhoods.

PLANNING REPORT
TO: Adam Nafstad
FROM: Alan Brixius / Ryan Grittman
DATE: November 3, 2016
RE: Albertville - Accorde Orthodontists – Site and Building Plan Review
FILE NO: 163.06 – 16.07
BACKGROUND
Accorde Orthodontist has submitted an application for a building and site plan review for
property located at 10963 Jason Avenue NE. The proposed site plan is for a
standalone orthodontist office building. The parcel is part of the larger Albertville St.
Michael Medical Clinic campus, which created the subject property as part of a
CUP/PUD approved in 2006. The construction of the clinic is consistent with the
approved 2006 PUD concept plan.
The site is zoned B-2, Limited Business. Under the B-2 Zoning District, clinical office
businesses are an allowed use. The site is currently a vacant lot with approximately
1.03 usable acres. The site is accessed from a private drive shared with the Albertville
St. Michael Clinic. The site will utilize existing parking with the clinic to the east, while
expanding the parking around the proposed building.
The site is adjacent to R-1A zoning to the west, B-2 zoning to the north and east, and A-
1 zoning to the south. The applicant seeks to build a 4,370 square foot orthodontist
clinic on the site. By code, a project of this scale requires a building and site plan
review.
Attached for reference:
Exhibit A: Site Location/Existing Conditions
Exhibit B: Site Plan
Exhibit C: Landscape Plan
Exhibit D: Grading Plan
Exhibit E: Utility Plan
Exhibit F: Floor Plan
Exhibit G: Building Elevations
Exhibit H: Lighting Plan
16
ISSUES ANALYSIS
Zoning. The subject site is zoned B-2, Limited Business. Within the B-2 District,
clinical offices are an allowed use. The proposed orthodontist office is an allowed use
within the B-2 Zoning District.
Setbacks. The following table illustrates that the proposed building will meet the
required setbacks:
Required Proposed Compliant
Front Yard (south) 35 feet 38 feet (approx.) Yes
Side Yard (east) 10 feet 19 feet (approx.) Yes
Side Yard (west - from property line) 10 feet 120 feet (approx.) Yes
Side Yard (west - from private road) 10 feet 85 feet (approx.) Yes
Rear Yard (north) 20 feet 84 feet (approx.) Yes
Lot Area, Width, and Depth. The subject site is approximately 1.03 acres in area and
has a lot width of approximately 264 feet. This exceeds the standards for the B-2
District.
Easements. The site plan shows a private easement on the west side of the property
that serves the private drive. In addition, the site shows drainage and utility easements
around the remainder of the parcel. The easements are an existing condition and
appear compliant with the City’s requirements.
Maximum Site Coverage. Within the B-2 District, the total impervious surface is limited
to 80%. The total lot area is 1.03 acres. The proposed building footprint is 4,370
square feet. The site shows a parking lot and private drive that covers approximately
17,088 square feet. The site coverage will be well below the 80% limit.
Maximum Building Height. The maximum building height in the B-2 District is 35 feet.
The submitted plans show a building height of less than 35 feet.
Building Type and Design. The applicant’s submitted plans shows the design of the
building and building materials. The building will be finished with EFIS, concrete
masonry units, and asphalt shingles. These materials are compliant with the City’s
code. The building elevations show an attractive building.
Site Lighting. The applicant has submitted a lighting plan. The light plan shows three
existing street light fixtures along the private drive. In addition, the applicant is
proposing four additional fixtures to service the parking lot area. The applicant shall
submit cut sheets that show the light fixtures are a 90-degree cut-off. In addition, the
plan shows that there is no lighting proposed to be attached to the building. The
applicant shall clarify that this is correct.
17
Trash Enclosure. The site plan does not show an outdoor trash enclosure. Based on
review of the site plan and building plan, it appears that the trash enclosure will be
stored indoors at the southwest corner of the building. This area has limited
maneuvering for trucks. The applicant shall illustrate how garbage trucks will access,
service, and egress the site.
Loading Berths. By code, a building under 10,000 square feet is required to have one
loading berth. The building plan shows one overhead door on the west side of the
building. Based on the proposed clinic use, no additional large truck loading areas will
be required. The applicant must describe how site deliveries will be handled.
Parking. By code, a medical facility is required to have one parking stall per 200
square feet of building square feet, plus three spaces. The site plan shows 3,933
square feet of building space. Therefore, 23 parking spaces are required for this
project. The site plan shows 26 parking stalls as well as two disability parking stalls,
which is appropriate for a project of this size.
The parking lot design is properly dimensioned with 9 foot by 20 foot parking stalls and
drive aisles 24 feet wide. The proposal meets the requirements of the City’s code.
The parking lot will be paved and have concrete perimeter curbing. By code, the curb
setback for the side yard is five feet. The curb cut is at least eight feet from each
property line.
The area to the east of the proposed building is currently open space with deferred
parking for the existing medical building. To better serve the parking lot in the future,
staff recommends that a curb cut be added to the eastern side of the parking lot to
connect to future parking.
Curb Cut Access. The applicant is proposing one curb cut. The curb cut is 24 feet in
width and is connected to a private drive. The curb cut meets the City’s requirements.
Landscaping. The City Ordinance requires a landscape plan for all commercial
properties. The plan shows some existing shade trees and sod that will remain on the
west side of the property. These trees were part of the original landscaping plan that
was approved in 2006. The proposed landscape plan for the clinic is generally
adequate except for the following items:
1. The landscaping along the west side of the parking lot consists of Chinese Silver
Grass. The City requires the screening of parking lots from residential
properties. The grasses will not provide year round screening. These grasses
must be replaced with shrubs.
2. The landscape plan proposes that the south and east sides of the site will be
seeded with native grasses and wildflowers. The introduction of this ground
cover is out of character with the original 2006 landscape plan and the more
manicured lawns around the medical clinic and the west side of the site. Staff is
18
recommending that the site ground cover consist of sod and the site be
maintained in a manicured manner consistent with the adjoining sites.
In addition, staff seeks clarity from the applicant if an irrigation system is intended for
this site.
Grading and Drainage Plan. The applicant has submitted a grading and drainage plan
that directs hard surface stormwater to the west central area of the site. This is subject
to further review by the City Engineer.
Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan. The applicant has also submitted a SWPPP.
The plan is subject to review by the City Engineer.
Utility Connections. The utility connections are all located along the private drive to
the north. The building will connect to the utilities toward the north side of the building.
This is subject to further review by the City Engineer.
Fire Connection. The site plan shows an existing fire hydrant along Jason Avenue NE,
and the private drive along the north side of the property. The proposed access also
indicates that a large truck can access the parking lot. The site plan also shows a fire
sprinkler connection on the north side of the building indicating that the building will be
fire sprinkled.
Snow Storage. The applicant’s site plan shows a snow storage area to the south and
east of the proposed parking. The snow storage plan does not use any required
parking stalls and does not interfere with the landscaping plan. The snow storage plan
appears to meet the City’s requirements.
Signs. The Albertville Zoning Ordinance limits wall signs within the B-2 District to two
wall signs per public street frontage. Additional signs may be allowed with the approval
of a comprehensive sign plan. The applicant has requested a comprehensive sign plan
for this site to allow a third sign on the east building wall. In review of the proposed sign
plan, we offer the following comments:
1. The total wall sign area shall not exceed 15% of the building wall fronting on a
public street. The building’s south wall fronts Jason Avenue. This wall has a wall
façade of 1,356 square feet, allowing a maximum total wall sign area of 203
square feet. The accumulative area of all the wall signs is 189 square feet (north
wall 52 square feet; south wall 52 square feet; and east wall 85 square feet).
This falls within the B-2 District standard.
2. No wall sign shall exceed 15% of the wall on which it is placed. The east side of
the building has the smallest wall façade (896 square feet) and largest sign (85
square feet). The sign covers only 9.4% of the wall.
19
3. The freestanding signs shall be limited to one freestanding monument at the
southwest corner of the lot not to exceed 53 square feet in sign area or four feet
in height.
The comprehensive sign plan does not exceed the maximum sign area allowed for the
building; it does allow for the extra wall sign. With limited freestanding sign allotment,
staff recommends approval of the comprehensive sign plan for Accorde Orthodontists
allowing the third wall sign.
RECOMMENDATION
Based on our review of the plan set submitted by Accorde Orthodontists dated October
11, 2016, we recommend approval of site and building and comprehensive sign plans
with the following conditions:
1. The applicant describe truck turn movements for garbage collection and provide
a description of type of deliveries received by the clinic with regard to truck type,
size and frequency.
2. The landscape plan be revised to address the following:
a. Replace grasses with shrubs along the west side of the parking lot to
screen the cars and headlights.
b. Replace native grass with sod to maintain continuity with the existing
medical clinic site.
3. Subject to City Engineer comments related to grading, drainage, SWPPP Plan,
and utilities.
4. The applicant provide cut sheets illustrating all exterior light fixtures, both
freestanding and wall mounted. All fixtures shall provide a 90 degree cut off with
a shielded light source. Parking lot light fixtures must match the existing clinic
fixtures.
5. Approval of the comprehensive sign plan to allow three wall signs per the
building elevations. The applicant shall be required to obtain a sign permit at
time of installation.
