ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL — June 27, 2011 5 7.A. Planning Case 11 -011— Select Senior Living PUD & Plat (continued) required. The proposed amendment would permit assisted living as a permitted use but the applicants would be required to get an approved Master and Final PUD in order to operate in the B -2 District. TAT Properties is also proposing to subdivide the property into two parcels, reserving the eastern two acres of the site for a future development option that has yet to be determined. In order to accommodate the request for the subdivision, and bring the property into compliance with the City's zoning regulations, the storm water ponding and landscaped area would be shared by the two parcels. The project, as proposed, meets all of the requirements of the City's Zoning Code, and substantially conforms to the City's design standards for the B -2 District. TAT Properties is requesting the park dedication fee of $133,350 be waived and added to Lot 2's proportional share of the County Road E streetscape improvements, to be levied at the time the improvements are implemented. Staff is requesting direction from the Council on collecting the cash payment for the park dedication fee or waiving this and adding it to a future assessment. She stated Recommendation 17 should be changed to read: The applicant shall install a sewer grinder, if required by the Public Works Director, on Lot 1 or at such time it is determined by the City that one is necessary. Councilmember Holden asked if there would be a maintenance agreement in place for the grinder when it is installed so the City will not be responsible for the maintenance. Public Works Director Terry Maurer stated if the equipment is required then it will be installed as part of the building service and not part of the City's sewer system like the grinder used by Presbyterian Homes. He stated the Staff would ensure that the equipment is maintained properly. Mayor Grant asked what the cost would be for a grinder and installation. He asked what lift station this facility would use. Public Works Director stated Staff had not received this information in time for the meeting but was currently working on getting this information for the developer. He stated he was not sure which lift station would be used by this facility but it may be the Ingerson Lift Station. Councilmember Holden asked if the corner where the gateway feature would be located would be a City easement and if this gateway feature had been addressed in the recommendations or in the development agreement. City Planner Beekman stated the type of gateway feature that will be in this location has not been determined yet so an easement may not be necessary based on the size of the feature. The gateway feature is addressed in the recommendations of approval for the project. Councilmember Holden asked if there was a sign plan at this time. City Planner Beekman stated the sign plan is included and there will be one monument sign and no signs on the building. Mayor Grant stated the corner of Lot 2 was dedicated green space. He asked how the proposal would meet this dedicated green space requirement.
