Request to Amend PUD_Asbuiry Plaza, Richardson InvestmentsMasterpiece on the Mississippi Dubuque Itattd All- America City 1111 ' 2007 TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members FROM: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager SUBJECT: Asbury Plaza Shopping Center PUD Amendment: Access Issues DATE: November 16, 2011 Planning Services Manager Laura Carstens is transmitting the Zoning Advisory Commission's recommendation for Asbury Plaza Shopping Center PUD Amendment to allow a right -in /right -out access to the Northwest Arterial and to amend the list of permitted uses, height and sign regulations. The Zoning Advisory Commission has recommended approval of the proposed amendment. The application letter from Peter D. Arling, dated October 19, 2011, included five items as part of their request. The Zoning Advisory Commission dealt with the first three items in Mr. Arling's letter: 1) A right -in /right -out access to the Northwest Arterial; 2) amending the PUD to allow one or more buildings in the area to be developed by Richardson Motors to be a height of 50 -foot; and, 3) to allow for the sign package provided by General Motors and Honda Motors. The fourth and fifth items included in Mr. Arling's letter were not specifically addressed by the Zoning Advisory Commission. In the fourth item, Richardson Investment noted a desire to obtain an easement for a portion of the property that is within the Iowa Department of Transportation (IDOT) right - of -way for Highway 32 to allow for installation of concrete, signs or the parking of new vehicles. This issue is subject to further negotiations with the City of Dubuque and the IDOT and may or may not be acceptable in their suggested format. It is my understanding that Richardson Investment has contacted the IDOT regarding this matter. In the fifth item, Richardson Investment, LLC indicated they would agree to allow access to the right -in /right -out access that will be on their property, provided there is an agreed upon amount or percentage of maintenance costs and /or compensation for annual maintenance and upkeep of the right -in /right -out access. In discussing this proposed access with City Engineering, Legal, and Planning staff, I have a concern that since it would be just a private driveway into a privately owned Asbury Plaza PUD Amendment Page 2 parking lot, that future use of this access could be limited to Richardson Investment, LLC. It is staffs position that because the Northwest Arterial (Highway 32) represents a substantial investment on the part of the community and a critical transportation corridor, such that any accesses granted to Highway 32 need to maximize the benefit to the traveling public as well as surrounding property owners. It is my recommendation that the proposed right -in /right -out access be extended all the way to the north, and that the existing private access drive that is on the south side of the AMC Theater parking lot be extended to the east, so that these two accesses meet. In addition, I recommend that a perpetual unrestricted public access easement be provided to insure not only continued access by patrons of Asbury Plaza, but also in the future, allowing adjacent property owners access through Asbury Plaza to the proposed new access to the Northwest Arterial. Prior to any additional property being allowed to connect to the proposed right -in /right- out access and /or existing private access drive, a revised traffic study reflecting the additional volume of traffic would be required as part of a PUD amendment. I respectfully request that the Mayor and City Council amend the Asbury Plaza PUD to include my recommendations, which are shown in bold type on page 6 of the attached PUD ordinance. A super majority vote is required because this change was not part of the Zoning Advisory Commission's recommendations. Michael C.

Dear Mayor and City Council Members: The City of Dubuque Zoning Advisory Commission has reviewed the above -cited request. The application, staff report and related materials are attached for your review. Discussion The applicant spoke in favor of the request reviewing proposed changes to the Asbury Plaza PUD regulations including the right -in /right -out access to the Northwest Arterial, listed permitted uses, building height and sign package. The applicant reviewed the conceptual layout of the new dealership building and the requirements of the automobile manufacturers in regard to building design and signage. Staff reviewed the proposed amendments to the Asbury Plaza PUD, the history of the development of the plaza, existing accesses to the Northwest Arterial and previous amendments to Asbury Plaza. Planning staff noted a copy of the traffic study is provided in the packet as well as a memo from City Engineer Gus Psihoyos that reviewed the submitted traffic study and the Engineering Department's comments. The applicants are requesting that an additional right -in /right -out access be added to Asbury Plaza to serve a new Richardson Motors dealership. Included in your packet is a conceptual layout showing the new dealership building, and the proposed right - in /right -out access. The City of Dubuque Municipal Code requires that access to the Northwest Arterial be approved by the City Council and that a minimum spacing of 1,000 feet be provided. A copy of the requirements for approving new access to the Northwest Arterial is included in the Commission packet. The Iowa Department of Service People Integrity Responsibility Innovation Teamwork The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members Asbury Plaza Shopping Center Page 2 Transportation must also approve the location and design of any new access to the Northwest Arterial. There was one public comment in support of the request, citing positive economic impact to the community and Asbury Plaza. The Zoning Advisory Commission discussed the request, reviewing the existing access to the Northwest Arterial and noted that if property outside the shopping center desires access to the new right -in /right -out, it would require an amendment to the Asbury Plaza PUD. Commissioners were supportive of the building height and sign amendments because these amendments are limited to the subject property. Recommendation By a vote of 5 to 0, the Zoning Advisory Commission recommends that the City Council approve the request from Asbury Dubuque, LLC /Richardson Investments, LLC to amend the Asbury Plaza PUD to allow a new right -in /right -out access to the Northwest Arterial, amend the list of permitted uses by adding vehicle sales and vehicle service and repair, and amend the building height and signage regulations for property at the far northeast corner of the shopping plaza. It is important to note that the City Council does not have final authority over access to the Northwest Arterial. Should the City Council approve the request, it will be submitted to the Iowa Department of Transportation for their consideration. It is also important to point out that these PUD amendments only deal with items 1, 2 and 3 of the October 19, 2011 letter from Peter Arling of the O'Connor and Thomas Law Firm, the attorney for Richardson Motors. Item 4 deals with an easement issue that is subject to further negotiations with the City of Dubuque and the Iowa Department of Transportation and may or may not be acceptable in their suggested format. Item 5 is an access issue that was not discussed by the Commission. A simple majority vote is needed for the City Council to approve the request. A super majority vote is needed for the City Council to approve additional changes to the PUD Ordinance.

Kritz, Associate Planner 71 h-• Dubuque All America Cilyj 2007 November 3, 2011 SUBJECT: Amendment to the Asbury Plaza PUD to allow for right -in /right -out access to the Northwest Arterial and to amend the list of permitted uses, height and sign regulations. INTRODUCTION Asbury Dubuque, LLC /Richardson Investments, LLC is proposing to amend the Asbury Plaza Planned Unit Development (PUD) to allow a new right -in /right -out access to the Northwest Arterial, amend the list of permitted uses by adding vehicle sales and vehicle service and repair, and amend the building height and signage regulations for property at the far northeast corner of the shopping plaza. The PUD Ordinance for Asbury Plaza was originally approved in 1996 and then amended in 1999 when the shopping center expanded by approximately 90 acres. Subsequently, the PUD ordinance has been amended four other times — once to amend the regulations regarding wall- mounted signage, the second amendment was to permit convenience store /gas stations as a permitted use, a third amendment allowed building height of 40 feet for a proposed business at the far northeast corner of the plaza, and • the fourth amendment allowed for an additional freestanding monument sign for out lots. Asbury Plaza is approximately 120 acres in area. Except for Plaza Drive, all the roadways within the plaza are privately maintained. There is currently a right -in /right- out access near the Hy -Vee convenience store and a full signalized intersection at Plaza Drive. There are three accesses to Asbury Road. Aerial photos are included in the Commission's packet that depicts the boundaries of Asbury Plaza and the proposed location of Richardson Motors. DISCUSSION The applicants are requesting that an additional right -in /right -out access be added to Asbury Plaza to serve a new Richardson Motors dealership. Included in your packet is a conceptual layout showing the new dealership building, and the proposed right - in /right -out access. The City of Dubuque Municipal Code requires that access to the Northwest Arterial be approved by the City Council and that a minimum spacing of 1,000 feet be provided. A copy of the requirements for approving new access to the Memo to Zoning Advisory Commission Page 2 Northwest Arterial is included in the Commission packet. The Iowa Department of Transportation must also approve the location and design of any new access to the Northwest Arterial. Snyder and Associates have provided a traffic study that looks at the impacts of the proposed access on the Northwest Arterial and vehicles entering and leaving the plaza. Snyder and Associates found no major problems with locating a new right -in /right -out access in the proposed location, and that a Level of Service B was calculated for both the a.m. and p.m. peak periods for the opening year of 2013, five years out in 2018, and 20 years out in 2033. A Level of Service B indicates that the average delay per vehicle during the a.m. or p.m. peak period would be between 10 -15 seconds. A copy of the Snyder and Associates traffic study is provided in the Commission's packet. In addition, a memorandum from City Engineer Gus Psihoyos separately that outlines the findings of the traffic study and Engineering staff's review comments is included in the Commission's packet. The proposed amendment to Asbury Plaza PUD includes adding Vehicle Sales and Vehicle Service and Repair as permitted uses. Currently, the list of allowed uses includes Auto Sales and Service and Auto Service Centers. Planning staff is recommending that these two uses be deleted and replace them with Vehicle Sales and Auto Service and Repair. These uses are listed and defined in the Unified Development Code. Planning staff feels that these two uses better represent the services offered by dealerships. The previous ordinances for the Asbury Plaza PUD included a separate list of permitted uses for the service /warehouse portion of Asbury Plaza. These uses included service - type uses such as Freight Transfer Facilities, Contractor Shop and Yards, Moving and Storage Facilities, Construction Supply Sales, and Lumber Yards. The portion of Asbury Plaza that was bought by Rubloff Development (Asbury Plaza, LLC) from Wendell Corey (Motor City, LLC) did not include the area that the service /warehouse type uses applied to. This area is located to the north and west of the AMC Theater building. Planning staff has not included the service /warehouse uses in the draft ordinance provided in the Commission's packet. Building height for out lots is currently restricted to 25 -foot, which is reasonable for most single -story commercial buildings. The applicant is requesting a building height for the area that Richardson Motors will occupy of 50 feet. This additional height is necessary to accommodate the larger building necessary to house vehicle service lifts and the potential exterior designs required by the automobile manufacturers. The applicant has also provided a signage package from both General Motors and Honda. This signage package differs significantly from the allowed signage for other out lots in Asbury Plaza. The applicant has indicated that the signage requirements come from the manufacturers themselves, and a copy of the requirements has been Memo to Zoning Advisory Commission Page 3 included in the packet for the Commission's review. The draft PUD ordinance reflects the proposed sign packages. RECOMMENDATION Planning staff recommends that the Zoning Advisory Commission review the submitted information for the proposed PUD amendment for Asbury Plaza, and review Section 5- 24.5 of the Unified Development Code that establishes plan approval standards for planned unit developments.

DISCUSSION The Engineering Department presents the following findings as it relates to the request for a right -in /right -out access for the proposed Richardson site along the Northwest Arterial: The proposed access is along IA 32 which is a four lane divided highway with a depressed grass median. The current annual average daily traffic based on 2009 Iowa DOT traffic counts is approximately 10,000 vehicles per day. Plaza Drive has approximately 3,000 vehicles per day. Access management on this corridor is controlled as an Iowa DOT Priority III Corridor, which restricts access to 1000 feet spacing minimum and a desired spacing of at least 1320 feet. The traffic study states that this is a 7.1 acre development consisting of 25,000 square feet of sales and service facility. It is expected to employ 60 full -time employees. Access to the site is proposed as a right -in /right -out intersection northwest of the NW Arterial approximately 1000 feet east of the existing Plaza Drive intersection with IA 32. = Based on this study, there does not appear to be any significant impacts to the existing streets. — Based on the study, it is unclear whether future connections to other streets or adjacent developments will be allowed. It only addresses that there will be a connection to Plaza Drive via the existing frontage road, whether direct or indirect. It should also be noted that this right -in /right -out will cross the existing hike /bike path that was installed in 2009. — The Study indicates a 20 percent (20 %) pass -by trips. This percentage appears to be in error and it should be further evaluated. Snyder and Associates is revisiting this issue and will let us know the results. It is my opinion that this probably will have little impact on the overall conclusion. — The right -in /right -out intersection will be consistent with other right -in /right -out intersections along the NW Arterial corridor. This one is proposed to have a 340 deceleration length with 70 foot radius to accommodate turning movements. CONCLUSION The proposed development and the anticipated traffic it will generate can be effectively accommodated with the proposed improvements outlined in this traffic study. The Level of Service (LOS) for the Right -In Right -Out is acceptable to the Year 2033. Engineering staff does not object to the findings of the submitted traffic study and will work with the project developers to implement the necessary improvements to accommodate the proposed development. cc: David Ness, PE K: \Dness\2011 10 -27 -11 K.

Johnson, P.E. License Number 17666 My License Renewal Date is December 31, 2012 All Date Introduction Snyder & Associates has completed a study of traffic impacts of development of a parcel east of intersection of NW Arterial (IA Hwy 32) & Plaza Drive for an automobile sales and service development, including proposed right -in /right -out access from Northwest Arterial. Existing Conditions Northwest Arterial (IA Hwy 23) is an important arterial road in west Dubuque, connecting U.S. Hwy 20 on the south and following a north and then east alignment IA Hwy 52 on the northeast, also connecting to the City of Asbury to the west. Land uses along this corridor include access to commercial and residential developments. The corridor is a four -lane divided highway with a depressed grass median and a posted speed limit of 45 mph. Current annual average daily traffic based on 2009 Iowa DOT traffic counts is approximately 10,000 vehicles per day (vpd) on NW Arterial, and 3,000 vpd on Plaza Drive to north and 400 vpd on Plaza Drive to south. Intersections provide left-turn and right -turn auxiliary lanes. Access management on this corridor is controlled as an Iowa DOT Priority III Corridor, which restricts access to 1,000 ft spacing minimum and desirable spacing of at least 1/4 -mile (1,320 ft). Traffic control is provided with traffic control provided by traffic signals at major intersection, and right - in/right -out intersections between signalized intersections. Proposed Development A 7.1 acre parcel located east of the intersection of Northwest Arterial (IA Hwy 32) & Plaza Drive is proposed for development as a auto sales and service development by Richardson Motors, illustrated in Figure 1 below. The development will include a sales lot and an approximately 25,000 square ft sales and service facility, and is expected to employ 60 full -time employees. Access to the site is proposed as a right - in/right -out intersection northwest of Norwest Arterial, approximately 1,000 ft east of the Northwest Arterial & Plaza Drive intersection. FIGURE 1 STUDY AREA Richardson Motors — NW Arterial Traffic Study Nibrul tshared\Traf clDubnqueRichardson1111005 Richardson Traffic Study.doc Snyder & Associates, Inc. Page 1 Trip Generation Trip Generation rates for the proposed auto sales development were examined using the Trip Generation for future years include development additional adjacent parcels and assumptions were made using the Northwest Arterial Traffic Operations Study - Future Conditions Analysis prepared for the Iowa DOT in 2007 and provided by the City. This study computed future traffic growth and detailed turning movements at intersections, including NW Arterial & Plaza Drive due to expected land use changes along the corridor. For opening year, generated trips were computed following Trip Generation, 8" Edition, published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers, using ITE Code 841 "New Car Sales" with independent variable of 1,000 square feet of gross floor area, as seen in Table 1 below. Table 1 Ooenine Year Trip Generation ITE Code Land Use Quantity Unit Weekday AM PEAK HOUR PM PEAK HOUR Total Enter Exit Total Enter Exit 814 New Car Sales 25 KSF 834 51 38 15 65 26 40 TOTAL 834 51 38 15 65 26 40 Future year analysis utilized the 2007 Northwest Arterial Traffic Operations Study, which includes generated trips and intersection turn movement volumes at NW Arterial & Plaza Drive. Therefore, it is assumed a percentage of these trips will use the proposed right - in/right -out access in future years. Based on discussions with City traffic and planning staff, it is assumed the proposed right -in /right -out access road will connect to the additional frontage roads to the developments northeast of the NW Arterial & Plaza Drive intersection. Therefore it is assumed 30% of westbound NW Arterial projected traffic that would turn at Plaza Drive will use the right -in /right -out turn movements. This is discussed more specifically in trip distribution below. Trip Distribution As described above, the opening year traffic is expected to consist primarily of trips traveling to the proposed development. Due to right -in /right -out intersection, the majority of westbound trips for this development will use the right -in /right -out intersection, and eastbound trips will be required to use the Plaza Drive intersection. In the AM peak hour, 60% of traffic is westbound, and in PM peak hour 55% of traffic is eastbound. The trips generated by the proposed development will follow these directional distributions. The site will generate two types of trips — trips generated directly by the site that arrive from one direction and return back in that same direction (e.g. westbound in, eastbound out), and "pass -by" trips that include vehicles already traveling on NW Arterial that go to development, and then depart in same direction they were traveling before (e.g. westbound in, westbound out). It is assumed 20% of trips generated by development will be pass -by trips. Future year generated traffic is provided by the 2007 Northwest Arterial Traffic Operations Study, and is used to develop future traffic for the study. Using an annual growth rate of 2.5 %, turning movement data for years 2020 and 2030 are used to develop background five -year future analysis year 2018 and 20 -year analysis year 2033 turning movement volumes. As described Richardson Motors — NfVArterial Tragic Study Ilibnalshared TrraJckDubnqueRichardso &111005 Richardson Tragic Sludy.doc Snyder & Associates, Inc.

Page 9 Capacity Analysis Capacity analysis analyzes and describes the performance of study intersections and roadways under various traffic volumes and traffic control scenarios. For this study, intersection capacity was analyzed for Opening Year 2013 and Future Year 2018 traffic at the two study intersections using Highway Capacity Manual methodology incorporated into the traffic analysis and modeling program, Synchro 7. Intersection delay, caused by traffic volume, turning vehicles, number of lanes, arrival patterns, etc. is qualitatively described by a performance measure called `Level of Service' (LOS), which `grades' delay on a scale of A -F. LOS A is considered the most desirable level, with the least delay, while LOS F is least desirable, with the most delay. LOS criteria defined by the HCM for signalized and unsignalized intersections are shown in Table 2 below.

The results of the Capacity Analysis LOS for critical movements are summarized in Table 3 below, based on traffic control of traffic signal or SB STOP sign for right -in /right -out access. At the NW Arterial & Plaza Drive intersection, the Future Year analysis assumes inclusion of the geometric improvements recommended in the 2007 Northwest Arterial Traffic Operations Study, specifically the year 2033 dual left turns for EB NW Arterial and SB Plaza Drive. Table 3 Capacity Analysis Conclusions and Recommendations The recommendations provided in the 2007 Northwest Arterial Traffic Operations Study will provide acceptable operations at the NW Arterial & Plaza Drive intersection, and the proposed development and operations are consistent with corridor land use traffic projection plans.

The right -in /right -out intersection should be consistent with other right -in /right -out intersections along the Northwest Arterial corridor, providing a deceleration lane to remove turning vehicles from through traffic, and a wide radius to accommodate turning movements. Per Iowa DOT Design Manual guidelines in Section 6C -5 and 6A -1, this should provide approximately 340 ft deceleration length with a radius of 70ft.
