March 28, 2016
Proposal
HAF Group is proposing to construct a 4,926 square foot family -style restaurant and bar with a
1,730 square foot basement. The main floor is proposed to have approximately 180 seats and an
outdoor patio with approximately 40 seats. Sixty-one parking spaces and landscaping improve-
ments will surround the building and along the property's boundary perimeters. Five beanbag
courts on a grass surface are proposed on the west side of the restaurant. The proposed project
is located on a 1.05 -acre parcel of land located on the northwest corner of 70th Street (CSAH 22)
and Hinton Avenue (CSAH 13).
The proposed project consists of the following planning applications:
A. Amend the Summerhill Crossing Planned Unit Development (PUD) Master Plan to
reconfigure the overall layout for commercial uses on approximately 2.2 acres of land
legally described as Outlot A in Summerhill Crossing 3rd Addition. The proposed changes
to the PUD Master Plan will replace two retail structures consisting of 21,700 gross square
feet and a 5,000 square foot restaurant pad to relocate the restaurant pad and to not
construct either retail building. The Summerhill Crossing PUD Master Plan was originally
approved on December 15, 2004 (Res. No. 04-204).
B. A conditional use permit and site plan review for a 4,926 square foot family -style restaurant
and bar on the main level with approximately 180 seats, an outdoor patio with approxi-
mately 40 seats, approximately 61 parking spaces, 5 outdoor bean-bag courts, a 1,730
square foot basement, and landscaping improvements around the building and property
boundary perimeters.

Review Process
Application Received: February 29, 2016

Background
In 2004, an amendment to the Summerhill Crossing Planned Unit Development (PUD) Master
Plan was approved by the City (Res. No. 04-030). This amendment also included the approval of
the Summerhill Crossing 2nd Addition preliminary plat and site plan for mixed land uses.
Resolution No. 04-029 was adopted for the approval of a senior housing project that was proposed
on the current medical office building site. Later in 2004, the Master Plan was again to allow the
PUD to have not more than 40,900 square feet of commercial uses within the PUD and allow the
Holiday Gas Station to be located at the northeast corner of the PUD commercial site amended
(Res. No. 04-204). The Summerhill Crossing final plat was approved on December 15, 2004 (Res.
No. 04-221).
The Summerhill Crossing PUD Master Plan originally approved in 2000 was amended in 2004.
The amended plan proposed a 5,000 square foot restaurant pad in the southeast corner of the
PUD site, an 11,000 square foot retail building south of the Holiday Gas Station, and a 10,700
square foot retail building east of the multi -tenant office building. The PUD Master Plan approved
in 2004 is shown below.

In 2013, a concept plan was approved for a 66 -unit senior housing project in the southeast corner
of the Summerhill Crossing PUD site (Res. No. 2013-068). A site plan review application was
never filed with the City for this senior housing project and the proposed project was never
constructed.
Planning Considerations
Project Proposal
A 4,926 square foot family -style restaurant and bar with approximately 180 indoor seats, an out-
door patio with approximately 40 seats, approximately 61 parking spaces, five outdoor bean-bag
courts and landscaping improvements around the building are proposed to be constructed on a
1.05 -acre parcel. The main floor area is 4,926 square feet and the basement is approximately
1,730 square feet. The basement will have an office, unisex restroom, and storage areas.
Off-street parking will be shared between the multi -tenant office building west of the proposed
restaurant and the future use on the remaining vacant parcel east of the proposed restaurant. As
part of the PUD Master Plan, 18 parking spaces in the Summerhill Professional Building parking
lot (across Pine Arbor Drive), 14 parking spaces on the south side and 10 parking spaces on the
north side of the multi -tenant office building west of the restaurant will also be available. A copy
of the site plan for the proposed restaurant/bar is shown below.

Site Characteristics
The property proposed to be re -platted is legally described as Outlot A (PIN 05.027.21.43.0081)
in Summerhill Crossing 3rd Addition. This parcel of land is vacant and is proposed to be
subdivided into two buildable lots and two outlots. A multi -tenant office building exists on Lot 1,
Block 1.
An aerial photo of the properties proposed to be platted is shown below:

Area Proposed to be Re -platted
Comprehensive Plan
The Future Land Use map in the City's Future Vision 2030 Comprehensive Plan designates this
neighborhood commercial node as a commercial land use. The proposed restaurant/bar is an
allowed land use and is consistent with the City's Future Vision 2030 Comprehensive Plan. The
commercial land use designation for this property and the other commercial lots in the Summerhill
Crossing area was designated for commercial development since the approval of the Compre-
hensive Plan in 2000.
Preliminary and Final Plat
Preliminary and final plat applications have been filed by the current land owner. This subdivision
plat is named Summerhill Crossing 4th Addition and is a re -plat of Outlot A in the Summerhill
Crossing 3rd Addition. The dedication of land for public right-of-way was granted at the time the
original Summerhill Crossing plat was recorded at Washington County in August 2004. No addi-
tional right-of-way is needed.

As part of the Summerhill Crossing PUD Master Plan, the minimum side yard setbacks for land-
scaping and parking will not be applicable along all common boundary lines within this subdivision.
The three parcels proposed within the Summerhill Crossing 4th Addition will share parking
spaces, access drives, and landscaping along the common boundary lines. Variances to the min-
imum off-street parking, parking setbacks, and landscaped area regulations will not be required
since the proposed revised PUD Master Plan will share these site amenities. Development plans
for the remaining vacant lot must still be filed with the City for review and approval.
The preliminary/final plat for Summerhill Crossing 4th is illustrated below.

Preliminary/Final Plat for Summerhill Crossing 4th Addition
Architecture
The building's exterior will be comprised of brick and glass materials that are compliant with the
Class 1 materials required in City Code Title 11-6-13, Architecture. There is a significant amount
of an architectural metal siding on all four sides of the building. This metal siding material is a
Class 3 material. The metal siding pattern is oriented horizontally with a six-inch repeated pattern.
The color of the metal siding is charcoal grey. The material choices for the restaurant's exterior
design are featured design elements from historical warehouses and breweries in the Minnesota
area. The building's exterior features a beige colored brick that is complementary to the approved
design colors used for the four existing commercial structures in the Summerhill Crossing PUD
area.

A copper metal panel covering the fireplace chimney in the outdoor patio area is proposed. A
metal standing seam roof is also proposed over the outdoor patio area that is along the south side
of the building. Architectural asphalt shingles are proposed on the roof.
A brick veneer material will be used on all four sides of the structure. Most of this brick veneer will
be on the south wall, the building's main entrance on the east side, and as a wainscot along the
base of all four sides of the building. The applicant has upgraded the amount of Class 1 materials
by adding a brick veneer chimney on the west side of the building and the wainscot brick at the
base of the building's four sides. Overall, the amount of Class I materials (average on all four
sides) for the exterior walls complies with the 65 percent minimum coverage.
The exterior materials and design for the restaurant is different than the other existing commercial
buildings within the Summerhill Crossing development. The Summerhill Crossing PUD Master
Plan required that all the buildings be constructed with the same architectural design, color
scheme, and materials as identified on Sheet A-3 of the architectural sheets dated August 3, 2001
from KKE Architects, Inc. The Summerhill Crossing PUD Master Plan amendment requested by
the applicant includes a modification to the requirement that all the buildings be constructed with
the same architectural design, color scheme, and materials. In consideration of this PUD amend-
ment, deviating from the architectural and construction materials imposed in the PUD is consid-
ered to introduce an alternative architectural design that complements existing structures in this
neighborhood commercial node.
The building elevations and colored illustrations of the building's exterior are shown below.

Parking
This property is part of the Summerhill Crossing PUD because it shares motor vehicle access and
parking with other independent businesses within this neighborhood commercial district. The min-
imum number of off-street parking spaces required for this proposed 4,926 square foot (excluding
the basement) restaurant serving alcoholic beverages is 99 parking spaces. Because the outdoor
patio proposes 40 seats, city ordinance requires three additional parking spaces. The total number
of parking spaces required is 102. The proposed restaurant site provides 61 parking spaces.
The property owner for the multi -tenant office building at 6939 Pine Arbor Drive west of the pro-
posed restaurant site and the Summerhill Professional Building at 6936 Pine Arbor Drive north of
the proposed restaurant site has agreed to share parking. The Summerhill Professional Building
is providing 18 parking spaces and the multi -tenant office building is sharing 14 parking spaces.
Additional shared parking will be provided in the future at the property east of the restaurant site.
A declaration for these restrictions and shared access/parking will be prepared. This document
will provide these property owners the right and privilege of shared access and parking for ingress,
egress, passage, and parking upon those portions of parking areas and driveways shown on the
illustration below. The declaration will be required to run with the affected properties in perpetuity
and is required to be recorded at the Washington County Recorder's office. This document must
be recorded before a building permit is issued for any building in the Summerhill Crossing 4th
Addition.
The proposed shared parking is supported based on the differing business hours between the
professional office uses and proposed restaurant/bar project. The applicant stated that the peak
hours for the restaurant will be 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. during weekdays. The surrounding office
buildings have extra parking spaces and their business hours generally are different than the peak
hours for the restaurant.

Shared Parking Illustration
Landscaping
The proposed Junction 70 Grille project provides for open spaces and landscaped features that
are generally consistent with the minimum ordinance regulations. The applicant added additional
plantings along the east and north sides of the building. Based on the overall Summerhill Crossing
PUD development, the proposed landscaping for the restaurant project is acceptable.
A metal fence is proposed along the perimeter of the outdoor beanbag toss area, along the south
side of the outdoor patio area, and along the top edge of the retaining wall along the south property
line. The fence material for these areas is required to be the same color and materials that exist
along the retaining wall south of the multi -tenant office building.
Berming along the restaurant's property boundary lines is not possible for this site. The parking
lot is ten feet from the south property line and a retaining wall will be constructed along this bound-
ary line because of the grade elevation difference between the drainage swale in the 70th Street
right-of-way and pad elevation. This retaining wall will be an easterly extension of the existing
retaining wall south of the multi -tenant office building at 6939 Pine Arbor Drive. The west property
line will be centered in the shared access drive between the multi -tenant office building and the
proposed restaurant. A landscape island will be constructed along the east property line, but its
width is not sufficient to create a berm.

Outdoor Lighting
Outdoor light fixtures will consist of wall units on the building's exterior walls and parking lot light
poles that are 20 to 25 feet in height. The level of lighting will meet the needs for security and
safety and will not detract from the aesthetics of the development. The outdoor light fixtures are
designed and mounted to prevent unnecessary glare onto adjacent properties. City ordinance
limits the amount of light that can be emitted from commercial property. This limitation must not
exceed 1.0 foot candlepower. Measurement of this light source is taken at the property boundary
line.
A photometric plan of the calculated candlepower throughout the site showing compliance with
the City ordinance is required to be submitted prior to issuance of a building permit.
Transportation — Major Road Right-of-Ways/Access
The proposed project is bounded by two major roadways that are identified as minor arterials in
the City's Future Vision 2030 Comprehensive Plan. These roads are 70th Street (CSAH 22) and
Hinton Avenue (CSAH13). Access to the proposed restaurant site will be from a local city street
named Pine Arbor Drive. Accessing 70th Street from the restaurant site will be prohibited.
The City is working with Washington County to develop an interim intersection improvement at
the 70th Street and Hinton Avenue intersection. The City and County are also working on design
alternatives for a traffic signal and/or the possibility of a roundabout at this intersection. An illus-
tration of a possible traffic signal or roundabout alternatives at this intersection is shown below.

RE: Application Narrative
ATTN: John McCool, AICP - Senior Planner, City of Cottage Grove
Dear John,
The proposed restaurant is located at 6939 Pine Arbor Drive South. At the northwest
corner of the intersection of 70th Street South and Hinton Avenue. The proposed
Restaurant is a 180 seat family style restaurant and bar. The proposed restaurant will
have an inviting and family friendly atmosphere for patrons of all ages. The goal of the
proposed restaurant is to draw in families from the surrounding areas along with local
recreational sports teams after their games.
The proposed restaurant sits on a split lot that is currently zoned as a PUD site. The
proposed restaurant features a 61 stall parking lot along with possible shared parking from
the adjacent office building to the west. The shared parking will be recorded through the
city and county to reflect the amount of stalls provided on the site as well as the amount
of stalls that are required for the building use. Since the site was originally developed as
a multi building phase plan the original developer created more stalls than required to act
as shared parking. Because of the extra stalls this allows other uses such as restaurants
to take advantage of shred parking without having an enormous parking lot that is empty
most of the day. This restaurant will have peak hours of operation during the day from
5:30 pm to 7:30 pm during the weekdays. The surrounding office buildings have extra
stalls that are not needed for the current use. So this proposal aims to create parking on
the site as well as create a shared parking agreement that doesn't affect anyone's parking
situation in a negative way. The stalls that we would be sharing are technically not even
needed currently based on the use of office space. Please see attached Parking Layout
ASIA for further information.
The proposed restaurant is a 4700 square foot building that features design elements from
historical warehouses and breweries in the Minnesota area. Material choices for the
exterior of the building feature beige colored brick on the south and east facades as well
as an architectural metal panel system. The brick color matches the approved design
colors and selections thru the PUD and the amendment to the PUD. The approved
materials consist of various materials, brick, stone, etc. The architectural metal panel is a
sturdy metal panel that comes in various colors made locally by firestone metal products
in Anoka MN. These panels are featured on various different buildings around the twin
cities and doesn't have the poor performance of a typical metal panel. Other materials on
the building include standing seam metal roofing along with clear low -e glazing windows.

RE: Response to Ordinance Criteria.
ATTN: John McCool, AICP - Senior Planner
Dear John,
Below are the responses to the Conditional Use Permit/interim Conditional Use Permit
Response to Ordinance Criteria for a proposed restaurant located northwest of the
intersection of 70th Street South and Hinton Ave.
A. The proposed restaurant falls under the approved conditional uses as stated on page 8 of
Ordinance 707/Attachment "A" as an "on -sale liquor store and restaurants serving liquor,
wine, or 3.2 beer. The proposed restaurant would meet the standards as listed above.
B. The proposed restaurant, located directly to the east of an existing office building has been
designed to be constructed out of high quality materials that will be easy to maintain the
original state of the building. The proposed restaurant falls into the approved list of
conditional use buildings for the existing zoning. It is classified under Ordinance
707/Attachment "A" as a restaurant serving liquor, wine or beer.
C. With the introduction of the proposed restaurant onto the site, the property values of the
adjacent buildings are likely to increase. The proposed restaurant will draw customers in
from surrounding areas, bringing in more potential clients for the surrounding businesses.
D. Buildings and properties adjacent to the proposed restaurant include a large office building
to the northwest of the site, a smaller office building directly west, and a Holiday gas station
to the north. During standard operating hours, the proposed restaurant will offer new dining
options for visitors and employees of the surrounding area. During nighttime operational
hours (after 6:00pm) the adjacent buildings will be vacant, thus making it unlikely for the
proposed restaurant to disturb the surrounding properties. At this time the proposed
restaurant will not emit noticeable levels of noise, glare, smoke, dust, odor, fumes, water
pollution, vibration, general unsightliness or any other nuisances.
E. The proposed restaurant will be constructed in addition to a 61 stall parking lot to
accommodate the restaurants proposed 180 seat layout. During busier hours of operation
(after bpm) the majority of surrounding buildings will be empty for the remainder of the
workday. The only traffic on Pine Arbor Drive S. will be traffic to the restaurant and traffic
to the Holiday gas station located at the corner of Pine Arbor Boulevard S. and Pine Arbor
Drive S.

PH: 651-351-1760 FAX: 651-430-0180
W WW.HAFARCHITECTS.COM
F. The proposed restaurant will be connected to Pine Arbor Drive S. by two entrances into the
proposed parking lot. The first being shared with the office building directly to the east of
the proposed restaurant. The second being a dedicated two-way entrance located.on the
northeast corner of the lot (see site plan). This allows for easy access into the restaurants
parking lot. In addition to two entrances to the parking lot, the drive isle circles the entire
restaurant and provides easy access for any emergency or utility vehicle that requires access
to the building or site.
G, The existing site currently has public utilities stubbed into the property..This eliminates the
need for utility companies and the city to excavated existing roadways and right-of-ways to
in order to bring required utilities to the proposed building. The proposed building will be
privately owned and operated and therefore will not create additional costs at the public
expense and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community. The
proposed restaurant will have the opposite effect. It will bring more traffic to other local
businesses, leading to future economic development.
H. The proposed restaurant and site have been designed intelligently to maintain the exiting
scenic and natural features of the surrounding properties. The building and site feature city
approved building materials and landscaping features.
I. At this time the proposed restaurant creates no adverse environmental effects.
J. At this time the proposed restaurant does not create ant potential future development
problems for adjacent properties.
Thank you,
Matt Hoefler
