Next Meeting of the Edina Planning Commission November 14, 2012 o� e PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT Originator Meeting Date Agenda # Cary Teague November 14, 2010 VLA Director of Planning INFORMATION & BACKGROUND Project Description Robert and Yvonne Leslie are proposing to split their existing lot into two lots to create a lot line separation of the existing double -dwelling at 7309 & 7311 Glouchester Drive. (See property location on pages Al A5.) There is an existing shed in the rear yard that would be relocated to the northern lot, so not be located over the proposed lot line. (See pages A5 and A6.) The east and south side of Glouchester Drive, where the subject property is located, is made up of duplexes and are all Zoned R-2, Double Dwelling Unit District. (See page A3.) Several of the duplexes in this neighborhood were divided in a similar manner, including the adjacent properties to the north and south. (See pages A2 & A4.) The duplexes in this area were constructed with a fire -rated wall separating the two units. The property owner has verified that this structure was similarly constructed. Documentation verifying that a fire -rated wall separates the two units shall be condition of any approval for this request. This would provide protection for each unit, should there be a fire on the other side. SUPPORTING INFORMATION Surrounding Land Uses North: Double -dwellings; zoned and guided for double -dwellings. South: Double -dwellings; zoned and guided for double -dwellings. East: Multiple family -dwellings; zoned and guided for multiple dwellings. West: Single-family dwellings; zoned and guided for single-family homes. Existing Site Features The existing site contains a duplex and has a shed in the rear yard. This shed would be relocated to the north lot. (See pages A5—A6.) Planning Guide Plan designation: Zoning: Primary Issue Low-density attached residential R-2, Double -dwelling unit residential • Is the proposed lot division reasonable? Yes. Staff believes the request is reasonable for four reasons: 1. The units are separated by a fire -wall. The property owner has verified that this structure was similarly constructed. Documentation verifying that a fire -rated wall separates the two units shall be condition of any approval for this request. 2. Each unit has separate utility hook-ups. 3. Several lot divisions have been approved by the City on this block, including the properties to the north and south. 4. There would be no change to the footprint or mass of the existing duplex. Staff Recommendation Recommend that the city council approve the lot division as requested, subject to the following conditions: 1. The two units must be separated by a fire -wall as approved by the building official 2. The existing shed shall be relocated to the north lot. 3. The approving resolution will not be filed until both of these items have been completed.

(See location on pages Al -A5, and the narrative and plans on pages A6 A14.) As demonstrated on the following pages, the project complies with all minimum Zoning Ordinance requirements. The Planning Commission previously reviewed this plan at the August 22, 2012 Planning Commission meeting. (See minutes on pages A34 -A38.) As a result of the discussion and concern over the location of the drive-through stacking lane, the applicant has revised the plan by relocating the building so it is parallel to France Avenue, which allows for a longer and more clear stacking lane that would not interfere with on-site circulation. (See original site plan on page A15 and the new site plan on page All.) The proposed Starbucks would experience its most activity during the morning hours, when the shopping center is not at its busiest time. SUPPORTING INFORMATION Surrounding Land Uses Northerly: Whole Foods; zoned and guided mixed use. Easterly: Centennial Lakes Plaza retail space & Centennial Lakes Park; zoned and guided mixed use. Southerly: Centennial Lakes Plaza retail space; zoned and guided mixed use. Westerly: A two-story office building; zoned and guided office/residential. Existing Site Features The subject property is 6.4 acres in size and contains retail buildings as pari of the Centennial Lakes Plaza, and a two-level parking deck. The site is relatively fiat. (See pages A3—A4.) Planning Guide Plan designation: Mixed Use Zoning: MDD-6, Mixed Development District Grading/DrainagelUtilitles The city engineer has reviewed the proposed grading, drainage and utility plans and has provided comment on page A39. All storm water from this site must be treated onsite, as there are no off-site pond expansions available. A Nine Mile Creek Watershed permit would be required prior to issuance of a building permit. Parking Based on the square footage of the existing retail space within the entire Centennial Lakes Plaza development, and the proposed increase in square footage for Starbucks, 705 parking stalls are required. The existing site provides 840 parking stalls, therefore, the parking requirements would continue to be met. Sixty-one parking stalls would be removed with the construction of the new Starbucks. The previous request would have removed forty-three stalls. Traffic & Site Circulation Access to the site, and site circulation would generally remain the same. (See pages A11 A13.) The proposed drive-through lane would be accessed on the east side of the site, with the pick-up window on the west side of the building. The drive-through lane would contain thirteen stacking spaces. City Code requires five spaces, although the Code does not specifically refer to coffee shops. A traffic study, done by WSB and Associates, found that the traffic from the proposed use would not impact the adjacent roadways. The study concludes that a coffee shop would be the most Intense use for the building. (See pages Al"33,) The proposed drive-through lane conforms to City Code; additionally, the revised drive-through lane conforms to the recommendations of WSB. (See page A24 of the study.) 2 As mentioned earlier, the busiest time for the coffee shop would be in the morning until about 8:30 am, when the stores in the shopping center are closed. The stacking would not impact France Avenue in any way. WSB concurs that the drive-through lane and stacking would not impact adjacent roads. Building Design The building would be constructed to architecturally compliment the new Whole Foods Store by matching the brick, stone and metal work. (See pages A8—Ag.) Landscaping The landscape plan has been designed to match the previously approved plan, which was part of an overall plan contemplated for the site. (See page A14a.) Based on the perimeter of the site, 87 overstory trees are required. That Includes the entire Centennial Lakes Plana site. There are 141 existing over -story trees on the site. (See landscape plan on pages A14—A14a.) A full complement of understory trees would be planted around the building.

Yes. Staff believes the proposal is reasonable for four reasons: 7. The proposed use is permitted In the MM6 District. 2. The plans are consistent with the Overall Development Plans for the site. This site was designated for retail uses. Circulation patterns on the overall Centennial Lakes Shopping Center site would remain. 3. WSS conducted a traffic impact study, and concluded that the existing roadway system could support the proposed project. (See traffic study and staff report pages Alb—A24.) 4. The proposal meets all minimum zoning ordinance requirements; therefore, the applicant is entitled the proposed use under the current ordinance. The applicant has revised the site plan and location of the building to meet WSB's recommendation for stacking space. Staff Recommendation Recommend that the City Council approve the Site Plan for Starbucks located at 7501 France Avenue. Approval is based on the following findings: 1. The proposal would meet the required standards and ordinances for a Site Plan. 2.. WSB conducted a traffic impact study, and concluded that the existing roadway system could support the proposed project. 3. The revised lane for the drive -Brough window would provide adequate stacking space, and would not interfere with traffic on France Avenue. Approval of the Site Plan Is subject to the following conditions:. 9 . Subject to staff approval, the site must be developed and maintained in substantial conformance with the following plans, unless modified by the conditions below: 4 Site pian date stamped October 18, 2012. • Grading pian date stamped October 18, 2012. • Landscaping pian date stamped October 18, 2012.. • Building elevations date stamped October 22, 2012 Building materials board as presented at the Planning Commission and City Council meeting, 2. Prior the issuance of a building permit, a final landscape plan must be submitted, subject to staff approval. Additionally, a performance bond, letter -of -credit, or cash deposit must be submitted for one and one-half times the cost amount for completing the required landscaping, screening, or erosion control measures. 3. The property owner Is responsible for replacing any required landscaping that dies. 4. Submit a copy of the Nine Mile Creek Watershed District permit. The City may require revisions to the approved plans to meet the district's requirements. 5. Compliance with the conditions required by the city engineer in his memo dated November 8, 2012.

The proposed coffee shop building fronts France Avenue with an outdoor dining patio connected to its west elevation of the building, facing France Avenue. Architecturally, the building will complement the new Whole Foods incorporating matching brick, stone and -metal work. The addition of the coffee shop will provide additional landscaping for Centennial Lakes to complement and enhance the new landscaping just completed in this year. A coffee slop is viewed by the shopping center owner and tenants as a favorable and complimentary use, serving as a convenient amenity to local residents and workers. The ooffoe shop's most active times are prior to 8:30 am. The majority of shops at Centennial Lakes Plaza open at 10 am. The proposed site plan features a drive through lane with simple circulation through the site. Centennial Lakes Plaza previously contained a drive through facility for Mcllonalds which has since been removed and parking stalls added in its place. The overall parking ratio will remain at 5:5/1000. A traffic study has been completed and included as pant of the application. The coffee shop's presence, design and orientation will help to beautify and enhance the current large parking field along France Ave and will include the addition of a new parking lot surface. Icor these masons and more, we are excited to present the following application and thank you in advance for your thoughtful consideration.

The site is located in Edina in the southeast quadrant of the France Avenue and Plaza Drive intersection. The project location is shown on Figure 1. The proposed plan includes the addition of a free standing 1,750 sf Coffee Shop building in the existing Centennial Lakes Plaza parking lot, All access to the site will be through existing driveway locations to The overall Centennial Lakes Plaza site. Access is provided through full movement driveways from 76 tb Street and Parklawn Avenue and a right-in/right-out driveway (Plaza Drive) from France Avenue. The proposed site plan is shown on Figure 2. A11'raffic. Impact Analysis was completett for the new Whole Foods store located in the Centennial Lakes Plaza adjacent to Parklawn Avenue, in November of 2010. Data from that study was used as background information for this study. The traffic impacts of the existing and proposed development were evaluated at the following locations. e France Avenue at 7610' Street a France Avenue at Plaza Drive a France Avenue at Parklawn Avenue 0 76`1' Street at Centennial Lakes Site Access 0 Parklawn Avenue at Centennial Lakes Site Access 9 Plaza Drive at East Site Parking Access 4 Plaza Drive at West Site Parking Access The following sections of this report document the anal)sis and anticipated impacts of the proposed redevelopment, 41( Centennial Lakes Col% a Shap Traffic Study City of Edina June 19, 2012 Page 2 of 9 Existhig Traffic Cfioracteristics The existing lane configuration and traffic control include; France Avenue (CSAH 17) is north/south a 6 -lane arterial roadway. Primary access to Fiance Avenue is by local streets or other County Roads. The posted speed limit in the vicinity ofthe site is 40 mph. Parklawn Avenue and 76th Street arc cast/west city 4 -lane divided collectors. Access to adjacent developments including the Centennial Lakes Plaza is provided from these roadways. The speed limit posted on bath roadways is 30 mph. Plaza Drive is a 2 lane east/west access street to the Centennial Lakes Plaza. It provides the main access to the parking lots.

AM peak hour counts were also conducted by Hennepin County at the intersections along France Avenue. The AM peak, hour counts were 20% to 25% lower than the PM peak or Saturday peak counts. Therefore, only the PM and Saturday peak hours were analyzed with this study. These counts, which include the Whole Foods development traffic, were used as the existing baseline conditions for the area. Figure 3 shows the existing PM, and Saturday peak hour traffic volumes with the existing lane configuration without the proposed Coffee Shop traffic included, Site Trip Getterafibii In order to detennine the impacts the proposed development will have on the adjacent roadway systern the number of trips from the site needs to be determined, To insure that the worst case traffic condition is analyzed, trip generation for several high generating other uses in addition to the Coffee Shop were analyzed to determine what the potential highest generating use for this site may be. The estimated trip generation for the proposed Coffee Shop and other potential developments is shown below in Table 1. The trip generation rates used to estimate the proposed traffic is based on extensive surveys of the trip -generation for other similar land uses as documented in the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual, 8h Edition. The table shows the total daily, PM peak hour and Saturday peak hour trip generation for the proposed site as a Coffee Shop and the other potential uses. In addition, it was assumed that all the traffic frorn. the site would be new and that no adjustments were made for dual purpose or pass-by/diverled trips. This also will provide for a worst case traffic condition.

Page a of 9 Background Trak Growth Traffic growth in the vicinity of the site will occur between existing conditions and any given future year due to other growth and development within the region. This background growth must be accounted for and included in future year traffic forecasts. Reviewing the historical traffic counts in the area, trade has stayed constant or dropped in the past few years. In order to account for some background growth in traffic a ,OS% per year factor was applied to the through traffic on France Avenue, 76t" Street and Parklawn Avenue. Trip Distribution Site -generated trips were distributed to the adjacent roadway system based on existing travel patterns, the population distribution relative to the site and the travel sheds for the major routes that serve it. The Trip Distribution was assumed as follows: 30% north on France Avenue 40% south on mance Avenue 12% cast on 7e Street 7a/O west on 76u' Street 81% east on Parklawn Avenue 3% west on Parklawn Avenue Future Year traffic Forecasts Traffic forecasts were prepared for the year 2014, which is the year after the proposed site would be fully operational. The traffic forecasts were prepared by adding the projected annual background traffic to the existing traffic counts then adding the anticipated site traffic to the system based on the traffic distribution outlined above. Figure 4 shows the projected 2014 PM and Saturday peak hour traffic volume. Traffic Operations Existing and forecasted traffic operations were evaluated for each of the study area intersections. This section of the study describes the methodology used to assess the operations and provides a summary of traffic operations. Arutlysis Md1imfolvgy The traffic operations analysis is derived from established methodologies documented in the Highway Calxrcity Manual 2000 (ACM). The HCM provides a series of analysis techniques that are used to evaluate traffic operations. Intersections alae given a Level of Service (LOS) grade from "tai" tri'T" to describe the average amount of control delay per vehicle as defined in the HCM. The LOS is primarily a function of peak traffic hour turning movement volumes, intersection lane configuration, and the traffic controls at the intersection. LOS A is the best traffic operating condition, and drivers experience minimal delay at an intersection operating at tM Centennial Lakes Coffee Shop Traffic Study City of Edina June 18, 2012 Page 5 of that level. LOS F represents the condition whore the intersection is at capacity, and some drivers may have to wait through more than one green phase to make it through an intersection controlled by traffic signals. LOS F represents a condition where there is more traffic than can be handled by the intersection, and many vehicle operators may have to wait through more than one green phase to make it through the intersection. At a stop sign -controlled intersection, LOS, F would be characterized by exceptionally long vehicle queues on each approach at an all -way stop, or long queues and/or great difficulty in finding an acceptable gap for drivers on the minor legs at a through -street intersection. The LOS ranges for both signalized and un -signalized intersections are shown in Table 2. The threshold LOS values for un -signalized intersections are slightly less than for signalized intersections. This variance was instituted because drivers' expectations at intersections differ with the type of traffic control. A given LOS can be altered by increasing (or decreasing) the number of lanes, changing traffic control arrangements, adjusting the timing at signalized Intersections, or other lesser geometric improvements. LOS also changes as traffic volumes increase or decrease. Table 2 - Intersedlon LeW ofVer vice Ranges Source. HCM LOS, as described above, can also be determined for the individual legs (sometimes referred to as "approaches") or lanes (turn Ian" in particular) of an intersection. It should be noted that a LOS E or F might be acceptable or justified in those cases where a les(s) or lanc(s) has a very low traffic volume as compared to the volume on the other legs. For example, improving LOS on such low-volume legs by converting a two-way stop condition to an all -way stop, or adjusting timing at a signalized intersection, could result in a significant penalty for the many drivers on the major road while benefiting the few on the minor road. Also, geometric improvements on minor legs, such as additional lanes or longer turn, lanes, could have limited positive effects and might be prohibitive in terms of benefit to cost. Although LOS A represents the best possible level of traffic flow, the cost to construct roadways and intersection to such a high standard often exceeds the benefit to the user. Funding availability might also lead to acceptance of intersection or roadway designs with a lower LOS. 1,08 D is generally accepted as the lowest acceptable level in urban areas. LOS C is often considered to be the desirable minimum level for rural areas.

The LOS analysis was performed using Synchro/SimTraffic: Synchro, a software package that implements Highway Capacity Manual (fICM) methodologies, was used to build each signalized intersection and provide an input database for turning -movement volumes, lane geometries, and signal design and timing characteristics. In addition, Synchro was used to optimize signal timing parameters for future conditions. Output from Synchro is transferred to SimTraffic, the traffic simulation model. SimTralYic is a micro -simulation computer modeling software that simulates each individual vehicle's characteristics and driver behavior in response to traffic volumes, intersection configuration, and signal operations. The model simulates drivers' behaviors and responses to surrounding traffic flow as well as different vehicle types and speeds. It outputs estimated vehicle delay and queue lengths at each intersection being analyzed. Existing Levet of Service Sunnnary Table 3, below, summarizes the existing LOS at each of the study area intersections based on the current lane geometry and traffic volumes. The table shows that all intersection are operation at overall LOS D or better during both the PM! and Saturday peak hours with all movements operating at LOS E or better.

In addition the anticipated site traffic was added to the City's Southeast Area Transportation Model to determine if any regional impacts would occurwith the proposed redevelopment. The projected traffic was distributed to the regional roadway system, and no additional traffic operation issues were identified as a result of this proposed development, Plehicle Quetting Analysis A queuing analysis for both the existing and future 2014 conditions was prepared evaluating the anticipated vehicle questing impacts at the site accesses and intersections on France Avenue, 7601 Street mid Parklawn Avenue. The analysis was conducted using the SirnTraffle simulation software. The results found that during the PM and Saturday peak hours, for the existing and future 2414 conditions, the average queues in the corridor do not exceed any of the available turn lancs storage. In some cases however, the maximum queues were exceeded. The maximum queue represents the longest length of queue that was observed during the analysis period. The observations were identified just one time during the peak periods with an extremely short duration of less than 2 seconds. In all cases the queues exceed the M Centennial fakes Coffee Shap'f"raffic Study City of Edina June 18, 2012 Page 8 0f9 storage in the lett turn lanes by 25 fret (l vehicle) or less and would clear without blocking the adjacent driveways or intersection and not impacting through traffic. Tables showing the average and maximum queue lengths by movement and approach are included in the Appendix. In addition to the intersection queuing analysis, an analysis of the queuing needs for the drive-through operations was also completed, A study titled "Drive -Through Queue Generation" February 2012 was recently prepared to determine drive-through queuing guidelines. This report studied several drive-through business including six coffee shops located in Minnesota. The overall results of the study findings for the Minnesota locations are shown in Table S. In all cases the maximum queues were observed during the morning and in most cases during the AM peak hours. One of the six locations was the "Starbucks" located on Gus Young Lane in Edina. The maximum queue observed at that location was 16 vehicles. The study also found that Coffee Shops result in the longest vehicle queues when comparad to Fast Food Restaurants or Drive-in Banks, Tabte 5 — Coffee Shop Drive -Through Queue Analysis Source: Drive -Through Queue Generation, February 2012.

The drive-through queuing analysis concluded that based on the current site plan 7 to 9 vehicles could be stacked without impacting the main drive isle from Plaza Drive. Providing staking for a minimum of 11 vehicles and ideally 13 vehicles should be provided. Based on these conclusions no street or intersection improvements would be needed to accommodate the proposed Coffee Shop, however, it is recommended that additional staking for 2 to 4 vehicles be provided for the drive-through operaflon.

Would be a dream come true. Laura Minton at 7500 Edinborough Way. Hope it works outlll o j j old, D. Site Plan - Bruce Carlson, 7501 France Avenue, Edina, MN Planner Teague informed the Commission Bruce Carlson, on behalf of the Centennial fakes Plaza is requesting a Site Flan review to build a 1,750 square foot Starbucks Coffee shop with a drive-through window, within the parking lot of Centennial Lakes Plaza at 7501 Prance Avenue. Outdoor dining tables are proposed on the west side of the building, The proposed Starbucks would experience its most activity during the morning hours, when the shopping center is not at its busiest time. Concluding, Teague said staff recommends that the City Council approve the Site Plan for Starbucks located at 7501 Fiance Avenue based on the following findings; 1. The proposal would meet the required standards and ordinances for a Site Plan. 2. WSS conducted a traffic impact study, and concluded that the existing roadway system could support the proposed project. Approval of the Site Plan is also subject to the following conditions: 1. Subject to staff approval, the site must be developed and maintained in substantial conformance with the following plans, unless modified by the conditions below. Site plan date stamped July 25, 2012. Grading plan date stamped July 25, 2012. Landscaping plan date stamped July 25, 2012. • Building elevations date stamped July 25, 2012 Building materials board as presented at the Planning Commission. and City Council meeting. 2. Prior the issuance of a building permit, a final landscape plan must be submitted, subject to staff approval. Additionally, a performance bond, letter -of -credit, or cash deposit must be submitted for one and one-half times the cost amount for completing the required landscaping, screening, or erosion control measures. 3. The property owner is responsible for replacing any required landscaping that dies. 4. Submit a copy of the Nine Mile Creek Watershed District permit. The City may require revisions to the approved plans to meet the district's requirements. 5. Compliance with the conditions required by the city engineer in his memo dated August 16, 2012. Teague further clarified if the Planning Commission believes that the stacking space for the drive-through is inadequate; the Commission could recommend to the City Council that a moratorium be placed on new drive -trough's, until a zoning ordinance amendment is in Page 10 of 18 place to specifically address stacking space for coffee shops. As a result of the moratorium, recommend denial of the request, unless the applicant is willing to waive the 60/120 day rule. Agpea ring Earth ilcant Bruce Carlson, representing Centennial Lakes Shopping Center. Chris Van Waning, Starbucks Corporate Discussion Chair Grablel noted the proposal before the Commission this evening is for site plan approval and as previously mentioned by staff all ordinance requirements are met. Grabiel noted the Commission has three options before them. 1) Approve the proposal as submitted; zj Deny the request and recommend to the Council that a Moratorium on drive- through windows be implemented, and; 3) Approve with an alternative stacking option as provided by transportation consultant Chuck Rickart. Commissioner Platteter asked if the intersection to "get into" Whole Foods will be restudied. Platteter said there is a constant flow of cars that need to be better addressed. Planner Teague responded that at this time there are no proposed changes to any intersections. Commissioner Scherer asked if the only other Starbucks in the City with a drive-through facility was the one on Vernon Avenue. Planner Teague responded to the best of his knowledge that is the only other Starbucks drive-through in Edina. Chair Grabiel asked Mr. Rickart to address his findings. Chuck Rickart explained to the Commission the traffic analysis indicated that the existing roadway systems can support the Starbucks Coffee Shop with drive-through. Rickart said the analysis found that the majority of"coffee shop" traffic occurs before 10:00 AM, noting the majority of the steres in the plaza open later in the AM. Continuing, Rickart said that with regard to queuing that the existing site plan provides stacking for 7 vehicles; however, based on a study "Drive -Through Queue Generation" it was found that the site should provide stacking for a minimum of 11 vehicles and ideally 13 vehicles should be provided, A brief discussion ensued on Mr. Rickarts alternative Options A and B; to the proposed stacking on the site. It was acknowledged that a drive-through window did work for the previous McDonald's restaurant. 812111iont Presentation Bruce Carlson addressed the Commission and told them he was very happy to be before them again; this time with a formal request. Carlson said that the proposed building will be a 1,750 square font coffee shop located in the northwest former of the southern parking lot Page 11 of 18 ASS" of Centennial bakes plaza. Continuing, Carlson said the coffee shop will front France Avenge with an outdoor patio connected to the west elevation. The proposed building will architecturally complement the new Whole Foods building by incorporating matching brick, stone and metal work. Additional landscaping will also be provided to complement the newly completed landscaping. Concluding, Carlson said construction would include underground water treatment and the building will be LEER certified. Chris Van Waning, reported that 40% of the coffee business is done before 10 AM. Van Waning said that a "typical' shop with drive-through will serve between 70 and 90 customers during the peak hours and 60% of those customers would use the drive- through. The average "wait"' time is 45 seconds. Chair Grabiel referred to the two stacking alternatives presented by Mr. Rickart and asked Mr. Van Waning his opinion. Mr. Van Waning said Starbucks would be concerned with any option that would jeopardize safety; however, would be willing to work with the Commission on any modifications to the stacking element of the project. Commissioner Schroeder commented that based on the presented site plan it appears to him that only a 4 vehicle stack could be provided. Schroeder acknowledged that the plan meets City Code but questioned if Starbucks was meeting its criteria, questing if 6 vehicles was really acceptable. Mr. Van Waning responded that in his opinion the presented stacking is acceptable. Van Waning pointed out that this shop will be the second store in the "trade area"; the other one is at the Galleria. Commissioner Staunton asked if any other building configuration and placement was ever considered, adding a long time goal of the Commission has been to encourage buildings to "address" the street. Staunton said in his opinion rotating the building so the length of it addresses France is more pedestrian friendly. Mr.. Carlson responded that the proposed location of the building and its east/west configuration is at the request of the other tenants of the Plaza. Continuing, Carlson explained that the proposed configuration provides better visibility from France Avenue. With regard to questions about stacking Carlson said that much thought was put into this plan, adding that management is careful with tenant mix pointing out there had always been a drive-through in this area to service McDonalds. Continuing, Carlson said that in reality this is an internal circulation issue and it is very important that the circulation works. Chair Grabiel stated it's a great project; however, he has a concern with stacking onto Plaza Drive. He added the options presented by Chuck Rickart are worth considering. A discussion ensued on the stacking options A & B provided by Chuck Rickart Commissioners felt option H was best. It was also suggested that eliminating one lane in this area creates more space. Page 12 of 18 s� Commissioner Schroeder asked if there are plans to screen the transformer and trash enclosure. Mr. Carlson responded both would be screened and they would work on redesigning the building around Option B as recommended by the Commission. Commissioner Platteter also recommended that the utilities attached to the building be screened; maybe painted the same color as the building, but masked. Commissioner Forrest said she does have some concern with the internal seating of the coffee shop. She also said in her opinion the outdoor seating doesn't appear that appealing. Forrest pointed out the summer can be hot and with Seating off France Avenue It could get very warm without much shade from deciduous trees. Forrest concluded that she is happy the proponents are willing to move the trash enclosure away from the building. Carlson pointed out that a major landscaping plan was implemented along France Avenue and worked very hard and long adding new plantings and trees, adding they believe the patio will be beautiful. Carlson pointed out some people will really enjoy this patio, they like the business and if anyone wants a more serene setting they could move farther into the park. Bruce Carlson presented the materials board to the Commission. Kathy Anderson, architect explained that the proposed Starbucks exterior materials will match the Whole Foods store and other elements within the Plaza. The exterior materials are field brick, banding, limestone, to include green accents for Starbucks; nothing used would be different from what exists in the Plaza. Chair Grabiel asked if anyone in the audience would like to speak to this issue; being none Commissioner Platteter moved to close the public hearing. Commission Carpenter seconded the motion. All voted aye; motion. Motion Commissioner Scherer moved to recommend Site Plan approval based on staff findings and subject to staff conditions including stacking Option B as provided by Chuck Rickart of WSB. Commissioner Forrest seconded the motion. Commissioner Schroeder suggested an amendment to the motion to include the screening of the transformer, ensuring all roof top mechanicals are screened, along with the relocation of the trash enclosure and that all conduits are masked. Commissioners Scherer and Forrest accepted that amendment. Ayes; Scherer, Forrest, Potts, Platteter, Carpenter, Grabiel. Nay, Staunton. Motion carried. Kathy Alexander told the Commission with regard to the transformer State Code requires an opening on one side of the transformer for access and that all electrical boxes, conduits are positioned on the wall; however, they will be painted to match the building. Page 13 of 18 Commissioner Platteter requested that the transformer be screened from the lot and not the building. Alexander agreed. Vii. A. SketchVan, Mount Properties, 6500 France Avenue Planner Teague rep ed that the Planning Commission was asked,6 consider a new sketch plan proposal redevelop the property at 6500 France Avenue. Teague noted the Planning Commission r amrnended approval of a previous proposal for a total build out of six stories; however, the plicant withdrew the request, ;pior to the City Council taking final action. Teague expla d that the revised plan prop+ases a one phase 5 -story building with the mechanical equip t to be located inside the building. The overall height would not exceed the height of the chanical equipment,on the roof of the previously proposed four-story building. Teague said the specific proposal 1 o tear down the existing office building and build a new five -story medical office builds witty tall use on the first level. The parking ramp would be attached to the building. Thf t plan and building are generally similar to the previous plan; access to the site would; main from 65th5treet, with a secondary right out on France.j" Teague explained that some of tl differenc in the proposed plans from the previous plans include the following: W A Five (5) -story buil ,# - with no roof top m hanical equipment, 62 feet tall. (Previous buIldin as six (6) stories and asured 88 feet to the top of the mechanical equ' menta) Attached rking ramp. 5 -level p "eking ramp. (Previous ramp was levels.) • Proposed ilding has a rounded grand build in ntry appearance at 65th & France. revious building had a traditional shar wilding corner at 65th and Franc D G en roof on tap of the building. (Previous pla ad a green roof only ore e two building podiums.) Planner ague concluded that the applicant would again likerequest a rezoning of this sit from Planned Office District -1, (POD -1) to Planned nit Development (PUD).

(See location on pages Al A5.) There are no exterior changes proposed to the site or building. The request is simply to allow adults with ASD to live within this building. The interior of the building would be remodeled. (See applicant narrative on pages A9 -Al So.) The existing building contains 59 units; 35 of those units would be used for long-term residents with ASD. The remaining 24 units would short term stays. Roger Knutson, the city attorney, has advised staff that the City could face liability for rejecting a rental application from an individual with a disability who does not meet the minimum age requirement for City housing. The attorney has recommended two options. One, rezone the site to PUD to allow the current use plus adults with ASD or two, amend the Zoning Ordinance to allow adults with disabilities or ASD within all PSR -4 Zoning District. Staff and the applicant are recommending a rezoning to PUD, rather than opening up the use City wide within all PSR -4 Districts. To accommodate this proposal, the following is requested: > Preliminary and Final Rezoning from PSR -4, Planned Senior Residential District to PUD, Planned Unit Development; and > A Zoning Ordinance Amendment that establishes the PUD, Zoning District. SUPPORTING INFORMATION Surrounding land Uses Northerly: Crosstown Highway 62. Easterly. A three-story residential apartment building; zoned PRD -5; and guided High Density Residential. Southerly: Three-story apartment buildings zoned PRD -4; and guided High Density Residential. !Westerly: The Heritage of Edina — Senior Housing; zoned PSR -4, Planned Senior Residential District and guided High Density Residential. Existing Site Features The subject property is 40,663 square feet in size, is relatively flat and contains a four-story senior housing building. (See pages A4 -A7.) The building is part of "the Heritage" senior housing campus, which includes the three properties to the west. (See page A4.) Planning Guide Plan designation: High Density Residential (See page A8.) Zoning: PSR -4, Planned Senior Residential District (See page A3.) Parking/Traffic/Site Circulation As mentioned above, there are no proposed changes to the building or the site. Access to the site would remain off Heritage Drive. The existing parking would remain unchanged. There is an underground parking facility accessed of the west side of the building. There is a circular drivewayy in front of the building for pick up and drop off of residents. That too would remain unchanged. The majority of the exiting residents of this building do not drive. As proposed it is anticipated that one in 35 of these residents would drive, less than those that drive now in the facility. The current staffing of the facility would not change with the change In use. There are up to 17 staff on a peak day. Currently the majority of the staffing arrives and leaves during shift changes at ?am, Spm, and 11 pm. Transportation to activities and appointments offsite for the residents is provided with two buses, two or three times per day. This also will not change with the proposed change in use. The site deliveries and normal site operations will also not change.. The anticipated long-term length of stay of residents means that resident moving vehicle traffic will be greatly reduced. P1 This site is part of a four lot development of senior housing that was approved by the City back in the late 1960's and early 1970's (See page A4.) Overall there are 257 units with 154 parking stalls. Based on the number of units in the development, 192 spaces are required; therefore, the existing development is nonconforming. The amount of parking has served the development well over the years. City staff has not received any complaints in regard to traffic or parking. The applicant would have access to the parking lots on the adjacent sites to the west. WSB Conducted a traffic study to determine the impacts on the change in use. (See pages Alb -A18.) As demonstrated in the study, the change in use on the site would not impact the existing traffic or parking on the site. It is not anticipated to be needed, but parking stalls could be added on the existing site and adjacent site to the west in the existing lawn areas. (See page A5.) Landscaping The existing site contains mature landscaping, Including understory and overstory trees. (See landscape plan on page Al 5a.) These would all remain. Based on the perimeter of the site, 21 overstory trees are required. The site contains 22, therefore, meets City Code. Building/Building Material The existing building is made of painted white brick. Again, there are no changes proposed to the exterior of the building. (See pages A6 -A7 and A14 -A15.) Planned Unit Development (PUD) Per Section 850.04. Subd. 4 d provides the following regulations for a PUD; t. Purpose and Intent. The purpose of the PUD District is to provide comprehensive procedures and standards intended to allow more creativity and flexibility In site plan design than would be possible under a conventional zoning district. The decision to zone property to PUD Is a public policy decision for the City Council to make In its legislative capacity. The purpose and intent of a PUD is to include most or ail of the following: a. provide for the establishment of PUD (planned unit development) zoning districts In appropriate settings and situations to create or maintain a development pattern that is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan; 3 b. promote a more creative and eftlent approach to land use within the City, while at the same time protecting and promoting the health, safety, comfort, aesthetics, economic v1sWiity, and general welfare of the City; c. provide for variations to the strict application of the land use regulations in order to improve site design and operation, while at the same time incorporate design elements that exceed the City's standards to offset the effect of any variations. Desired design elements may Include: sustainable design, greater utilization of new technologies in building design, special construction materials, landscaping, lighting, stonmwater managements pedestrian oriented design, and podium height at a street or transition to residential neighborhoods, parks or other sensitive uses; d. ensure high quality of design and design compatible with surrounding land uses, Including both existing and planned; e, maintain or improve the of clency of public streets and utilities; f. preserve and enhance site characteristics including natural features, wetland protection, trees, open space, scenic views, and screening; g. allow for mixing of land uses within a development; h. encourage a variety of housing types including affordable housing; and L ensure the establishment of appropriate transitions between differing land uses. The purpose of this request is to allow for the mixing of land uses within the development and allow for a variety of housing types, specifically housing for adults with ASD, Autism Spectrum Disorders. The impact to the site is minimal, and it preserves the existing structure. The Inside of the building would be improved with new hardwood boor, appliances, utilities, toilets, faucets, dishwashers, and lights, 2.. Applicability►lCriteria a. Uses. All permitted uses, permitted accessory uses, conditional uses, and uses allowed by administrative permit contained in the various zoning districts defined in Section 850 of this Title shall be treated as potentially allowable uses within a PUD district, provided they would be allowable on the alto under the Comprehensive Plan. Property currently zoned R-9, R-2 and PRD -1 shall not be eligible for a PUD. 4 The only new use that would be introduced to the site Is that adults with ASD, Autism Spectrum Disorders would be allowed to live in the building. All other uses allowed in the PSR -4 District would continue to be allowed. b. Eligibility Standards. To be eligible for a PUD district, alt development should be In compliance with the following., L where the she of a proposed PUD is designated for more than one (1) land use in the Comprehensive Plan, the City may require that the PUL! Include all the land uses so designated or such combination of the designated uses as the City Council shall deem appropriate to achieve the purposes of this ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan; The site is guided In the Comprehensive Plan for "High Density Residential — HDR," which allows for all types of high density residential housing. However, the current zoning of PSR -4 only allows senior housing. The proposal to allow adults with ASD, Autism Spectrum Disorders, would be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. (See pages Al9 A20 for a list of uses allowed within the PSR -4 District.) Staff has prepared the PUD Ordinance, which simply allows adults with ASD, in addition to senior housing. (See draft Ordinance on pages A21 A22.) ii. any PUD which involves a single land use type or housing type may be permitted provided that it Is otherwise consistent with the objectives of this ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan; As mentioned above, the proposed uses would be senior housing and housing for adults with ASD, consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. iii. permitted densities may be specifically stated In the appropriate planned development designation and shall be In general conformance with the Comprehensive Plan; and The allowed uses on the site would limit the need for additional parting on the site. iv. the setback regulation, building coverage and floor area ratio of the most closely related conventional Zoning district shall be considered presumptively appropriate, 5 but may be departed from to accomplish the purpose and Intent described in #f above, The following page shows a compliance table demonstrating how the existing building complies with the exiting PSR -4 Zoning Ordinance Standards. Should the City decide to rezone these sites to PUD, these setbacks would remain the requirements for the site. Compliance Table * Existing nonconforming use PRIMARY ISSUESISTAFF RECOMMENDATION Primary Issues Is the proposed use of the site reasonable? Yes. Staff believes the proposal is reasonable for the following reasons: 1. The proposed use would bland Into the existing use with little impact. There are no changes proposed to the existing building or site. The number of units within the building would remain 59. Each unit would however, be remodeled with new hardwood floors, appliances, utilities, toilets, faucets, dishwashers, and lights. 2. As demonstrated in the attached traffic study from WSB, there would be no impact to the adjacent roadway system. (See pages A16—Al 8.)

Yes. Staff believes the proposal is reasonable for the following reasons: 1. The proposed use would bland Into the existing use with little impact. There are no changes proposed to the existing building or site. The number of units within the building would remain 59. Each unit would however, be remodeled with new hardwood floors, appliances, utilities, toilets, faucets, dishwashers, and lights. 2. As demonstrated in the attached traffic study from WSB, there would be no impact to the adjacent roadway system. (See pages A16—Al 8.) The number C' of residents and number of employees would not significantly change with the additional land use. Adults with ASD are less likely to drive than senior residents. 3. The proposal meets the following goals and policies in the Comprehensive Plan- a. Promote increased housing opportunities and a diversity of housing types. b. Promote a vision of community that is inclusive of a wide range of ages, incomes, and abilities and offers a wide range of housing options for Edina's residents. c. Promote lifecycle housing to support a range of housing options that meet people's preferences and circumstances at all stages of life. • is the PUD Zoning District appropriate for the site? Yes. Staff' believes that the PUD is appropriate for the site. As highlighted above, the proposal meets the City's criteria for PUD zoning. In summary the PUD zoning would: 1. Allow for the mixing of land uses within the development and allow for a variety of housing types, specifically housing for adults with ASD, Autism Spectrum Disorders. The impact to the site is minimal, and it preserves the existing structure. The inside of the building would be improved with neva hardwood floors, appliances, utilities, toilets, faucets, dishwashers, and lights. 2. Ensure that the proposed new use, adults with ASD, would be allowed to live within this building. It would not allow adults with ASD within other PSR Zoning District. The PUD allows the City to examine this proposed use on a case by case basis to determine impacts on the site and adjacent roadways. 3. The only new use that would be introduced to the site is that adults with ASD, Autism Spectrum Disorders would be allowed to live in the building. All other uses allowed in the PSR -4 District would continue to be allowed. 4. The site is guided in the Comprehensive Plan for "High Density Residential — HDR," which allows for all types of high density residential housing. However, the current zoning of PSR -4 only allows senior housing. The proposal to allow adults with ASD would be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. 7 Staff Recommendation 'preliminary & Final Rezoning to PUD Recommend that the City Council approve Preliminary & Final Rezoning from PSR -4, Planned Senior Residential District to PUD, Planned Unit Development District, and adoption of the Ordinance Amending the Zoning Ordinance to establishthe PUD Zoning District to allow adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) at 3420 Heritage Drive. Approval is subject to the following findings: 1. The proposed land use is consistent with the Comprehensive Man. 2. There would be no exterior changes the existing site or building. 3. Each unit within the existing building would be remodeled to accommodate the new residents. 4, The traffic analysis of the proposed use done by traffic consultant, WSB & Associates concludes that there would be no impact to the adjacent roadway system. The number of residents and number of employees would not change with the additional land use. 5. The proposal meets the followwing goals and policies in the Comprehensive Plan: a. Promote increased housing opportunities and a diversity of housing types. b. Promote a vision of community that is inclusive of a wide range of ages, incomes, and abilities and offers a wide range of housing options for Edina's residents. c. Promote lifecycle housing to support a range of housing options that meet people's preferences and circumstances at all stages of life.

The purpose and challenge for Erik's Ranch & Retreats begins with an estimated one in 88 children who have ASD, the prevalence of which has risen dramatically over the past two decades, Mute much of the autism research focuses on children, the amount of research and services drops dramatically for adults. With roughly half a million autistic children reaching adulthood in the next decade and one in three young adults with autism who have tw paid experience, college or technical schooling, experts say it's an issue policy makers urgently Beed to address. It is this large and growing problem that Erik's Ranch & Retreats seeks to solve in a way that has not been done so comprehensively. Our mission is to provide living, working, social and recreational opportunities for young adults with ASD based on our guiding principles of lifelong learning, individual community building, and bidirectional integration through voluntourism (combining vacationing and volunteering,) We are committed to providing a rewarding life in which individuals with ASD will experience dignity, compassion, and continuing possibilities. We can make significant strides in doing this with the Roybet building, at Heritage of Edina. In this planned long-term residence, 35 adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) will live, work, socialize and enjoy recreational activities in the safe, secure and nurturing environment we will provide. As the chart below indicates, despite the different demographic, operations and activities will not change significantly. We will also maintain 24 short-term stay apartments using them for respite, transition stays, family stays, and volunteers. This is identical to our current configuration at Heritage of lidina. We have sonic long-term residents, but over time, the average length of resident stays has diminished, Transportation provided to current elderly/disabled residents wilt be provided to the planned residents as they integrate into the surrounding communities. Traffic levels should reniain relatively stable, although there will be fewer large moving vehicles as the residents will comprise a more stable, lung -term population. The apartments will be refurbished to accommodate the new residents and their high sensory needs and allergy free environments; carpets replaced with hardwood floors, quiet appliances—toilets, faucets, dishwashers—lights that don't flicker, etc„ in A 6� accordance with the building guide Advancing Full Spectrum Housing—Designingfor AdWts with Autism Spectrum Disorders. Erik's Ranch & Retreats is a new paradigm for adults with ASD. Them is nothing like it in the country. Our guiding principles arc based on what individuals can do rather than what they cannot. Interest in our model has been shown as close as California and Nebraska and as far away as Australia. At the suggestion of the Neuroscience community, we will propose that the National institutes of Mental Health (NH%4H) intramural program study the residents. NIMH outcome information, provided at five- year intervals, will benefit the autism community. The autistic community is noticing and the tide is turning for adults with ASD. Edina, as it has been in many other instances, will be on the forefront of implementing this cutting-edge model for young adults with autism.

[Transportation Provided into cornmunity Provided into community U Background—Individuals with Autism Most require assistance with: • Social skills • Some activities of daily living • Transportation (like our elderly residents, few individuals with autism drive.) • Jab support • Medication management • Financial management The richness in our model comes from the volunteerstfamilies and short-term stay residents who visit. Our permanent residents will help support the short-term voluntecrslguests who stay at Heritage of Edina. We will combine the guest rooms from the four buildings and locate there in the Roybot building. In this way, our residents can provide personal concierge services to our guests, as well as have the social interaction so necessary for their well-being. In addition, we will also pair some residents with autism with elderly residents for companionship (with staff monitoring), These young people will also be integrated into the community through other work, recreation and varied social activities. Erik's Ranch & Retreats Erik's Ranch & Retreats, launched in 2008, is a 501c(3) nonprofit corporation with two locations. Our model is an innovative living, working and social model for residents and upscale volunteer/family guest accommodations at both the ranch in Paradise Valley, Montana, and the urban retreat in Edina, Minnesota. Not only will both locations become home to young adults with autism, but what sets Erik's Ranch & Retreats apart is that these unique destinations will be supported by the residents who live there. Erik's Ranch & Retreats provides residents with excellent housing, recreation and the ability to use their talents, follow their dreams and lead lives full of promise and possibility. Our goals are to (1) match the environment with the residents' strengths, abilities and desires, (2) increase residents' skills enabling independence and participation in the community, and (3) provide surroundings that encourage family and community participation.. We will achieve these goals using our guiding principles of Lifelong Learning, Individual Community Building and Bidirectional integration.

The site is located just south ofTH 62 (Crosstown) west of Xerxes Avenue on Heritage Drive. The project location is shown on Figure 1, The Erik"s Ranch project proposes a change in the current use to also include disabled adults with autism spectrum disorder. No changes to the site are proposed with any additional living space for residents. Acccss to the site is provided from Heritage Drive and will not change. Site Trip Generation The current site consists of 59 apartment units for physically, emotionally and mentally disabled adults 40 and over. 24 of the units are short tern apartments for respite, transition stays, family stays and volunteers._ The remaining 35 units are for the long term residents. The average age of the current residents are 89 years old. The average stay of current resident is two years. The proposed new use of the site will not change the 59 total residential units including 24 short term and 35 tong term units. The primary change will be with the age, 18 years old and over, and the primary disability, autism spectrum disorders. The average stay of the residents with the proposed change in use is expected to be for an extended period of time, tip to 50+ years. 0 Erik's Ranch Traffic Review City of Edina November 1, 2012 Page 2 of 2 The current staffing of the facility will not significantly change with the proposed ohange in use. There is up to 17 staff on a peak day. Currently the majority of the staffing arrives and leaves during -,hill changes at lam, 3pni and I Ipm. Transportation to activities and appointments off site for the residents is provided with two buses two or three times per day. This will not change with the proposed changes in use. Site delivery's and normal site operations (maintenance./janitorial) will not change with the proposed changes in use. In addition with the proposed extended length of stay of a resident moving vehicle traffic will be greatly reduced. Traffic generation rates used to estimate the current (and proposed) traffic levels is based on extensive surveys ofthe trip -generation for other similar land uses as documented in the Instituto of 't'ransportation Engineers TWp Generation Manual, 81h Edition. Table I below shows the total daily, AM Peak and PM peak hour trip generation for an assisted living facility with 59 total units on the site. rable I - Estinwied She Trip Generation Use skm ADT AM Peak PM Peak Total In Out TotW In Out Totid In On Assisted Living , 59 Units , 120 60 60 9 6 3 12 7 5 Source: institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual, 8th Edition Conclusions lRecommendation Based on the traffic review documented in this memorandurri. WSH has concluded the following: ■ The proposed use of the site will change from residential units for physically, emotionally and mentally disabled adults 40 and over to residential units for 18 years old and over with autism specttum, disorders. 1K 71'he number ofunits 35 longterm and 24 short term (59 total) will not change with the proposed use change. ■ The average number of staffand services will not change with the proposed use change. The proposed traffic generation from the site will not significantly change with the proposed use change, which is estimated to 120 daily trips, 9 AM peak hour trips and 12 PM peak hour trips. Based on these conclusions no impacts to the adjacent roadway system would be expected, therefore, no improvements would he required to accommodate the proposed change in use for the site.

An upscale retreat for people with autism - TwinCities.com TwinCitiesecom Caryn Sullivan: An upscale retreat for people with autism Pioneer Press Updated 1W27/2011 06:27:58 PM CUT Caryn Sullivan Two decades ago, autism was a mysterious condition known to relatively few. These days, media reports about Autism Spectrum Disorder (RSD) appear daily, it's rare to find someone who doesn't have a connection to the lifekxlg condition affecting 1 million to 1.5 million Americana. The children who were diagnosed with RSO In the 1990s have moved through the public school system legally obliged to educate them. For this aging population, focus is shifting from causation and treatment to lona}-term concerns. More will they live? How will they find meaningful work? Who will care for them when their parents are gone? While peers and siblings typically leave the family home to attend college or work, those options are often unrealistic for people with ASD. Finding meaningful employment is difficult, Housing options can include remaining at borne or living in a group home or apartment with supper Opportunities for community Interaction may became scarce once school programs end Years ago, Kathryn Nordberg began searching for housing and employment for her son, Erik, now 20. Discovering no options affording the quality of life she wanted for him, she assembled a team experienced with autism, business, hospitality, technology, law and health care to develop an alternative for Erik and his peers. Drawing upon her family's 55 years of experience running an assisted living facility for some whose needs mirror those with ASD, (Nordberg designed Erik's Ranch and Retreats. There, young adults with moderate to high -functioning autism or Asperger's will live and work together In a We and supported Anuimnrewnt fhztt fnniteoa nn WKAII thou r'n An rather than what they cannot, she said. Page 1 of 2 Established as a nonprofit in 2007, Erik's Ranch and Retreats Is designed as a self-sustaining, destination -location model Nordberg hopes will be replicated worldwide (edksranch.org). The vision Is for two upscale properties featuring private apartments for adults with ASD and guest rooms for visitors and volunteers. Tapping Into the growing "voluntourism" trend, residents will have the opportunity to earn money while they develop passions and skills by working with guests and volunteers who make a donation to stay on the property and commit to spending time with the residents. Properties donated In Minnesota and Montana will be renovated once krndralsing goals are achieved. In 2013, Nordberg plans to open an urban retreat In Edina that will be home to 35 residents who may work onsite In jobs typically available In the hospitality Industry - personal concierge or sous chef, for instance. The 230 -acre ranch near Soke- man will accommodate 48 Individuals with ASO Interested in Montana s popular outdoor tourism opportunities. Residents whose Interests or skill sets are not compatible with onsite jobs may participate in the Experience Guide Program, which will be piloted this spring. The program will match Individual interests with opportunities to engage with guests and to participate in the community at large. For example, a person who enjoys the theater or opera could be paid to lead a group of volunteers to a performance and backstage tour.

After the show, an opera singer or actor might meet with the tour participants, Nordberg said. For indhviduals who often struggle with social skills, spending time with visitors will produce reciprocal benefits. Volunteers will gain insight into people with ASD by teaching a class to them or working side-by-side in the kitchen or office or playing chess together. "My son Isn't verbal," Nordberg said. "You can't have a conversation with him over dinner." However, he loves both people and horseback riding and could lead a trail ride with guests, she sold, That interaction is a wiMwin, as both Erik and his companions would have a meaningful, insightful social interaction. lafetime costs associated with ASD are more than $3 million - the rrtalorky Incurred in adulthood, national autism organizations report. Erik's Ranch residents will make long-term commitment, choosing from two options. The first is for the family to purchase a lifetime membership for $325,000, if the member leaves within the first 10 years he can receive a pro -rated refund once a new resident takes his place. The second alternative is to make a three-year commitment for about WOOD per year. Three years is the minimum commitment, Nordberg said, because it will take dme to develop and Implement the resident's lie plan. Drawing upon the assisted hiring model that offers an array of a to carte services, Nordberg anticipates rasidents also will pay a monthly fee from Income sources, such as earnings and Social Security, depending on their needs, "We are trying to make this a model that is easy for parents to access and fair to all residents," Nordberg said. Efforts are under way io secure scholarships and financial old options. The Erik's Ranch concept is a departure from the model in which people with disabilities spend their time at day treatment centers performing repetitive tasks like sorting ties, Nordberg said. "Winne her model will not be for everyone, 'there have to be places in society where these folks care about what they are doing and thrive."
