<br />Phase I would include the demolition of the Blue Fox Restaurant and the construction of an <br />approximately 15,000 square foot retail building for up to nine tenants. Two of the larger retail <br />bays have been designed to accommodate restaurant users. The site plan includes a drive-up <br />window located on the northern side of the building and outdoor seating areas in front of the two <br />restaurant bays. The primary building façade would be oriented to the west towards what will <br />become a larger retail center in Phase II and Phase III. As part of Phase I, the applicant is <br />proposing to remove the three access driveways on the Blue Fox property. The Phase I building <br />would share the drivewayscurrently providing access to 3771 Lexington Avenue and 1120 Red <br />Fox Road. <br /> <br />Phase II of the Master PUD development would include a remodeling of the existing building at <br />1120 Red Fox Road. The building would be reoriented to face east towards the Phase I building. <br />Additional parking would be constructed for this phase as well. The building is currently used as <br />office and light manufacturing space and the applicant intends to repurpose the building for retail <br />uses. <br /> <br />For Phase III, the existing building at 3771 Lexington Avenue would be demolished and three <br />new buildings would be constructed on the lot. Two of these buildings would be two-stories with <br />retail uses on the main floor and office uses above. The third building would be single-story with <br />all retail tenants. During Phase III, the applicant has proposed removing the existing driveway <br />access at 3771 Lexington Avenue and adding a new curb cut entrance at the southern end of this <br />property directly across from the Target southern drive access. Ramsey County would condition <br /> <br />this new access on the installation of necessary traffic control at the intersection. <br /> <br />The applicant is also requesting Preliminary Plat approval for the site. Currently, the area that <br />would comprise Phase I of the development is divided between two separate parcels: 3833 and <br />3831 Lexington Avenue. The site is being replatted in order to combine these two parcels. No <br />subdivisions are taking place. <br /> <br /> <br />2.Planned Unit Development (PUD) Process: <br /> <br />The Planned Unit Development process is a tool that provides additional flexibility for <br />development that an underlying zoning district would not otherwise allow. For example, a PUD <br />may make exceptions to setbacks, lot coverage, parking requirements, signage, building <br />materials, or landscaping requirements. It is intended to overcome the limitations of zoning <br />regulations and improve the overall design of a project. While the PUD process allows the City <br />to negotiate certain aspects of the development, any conditions imposed on the PUD must have a <br />rational basis related to the impacts of the development. A PUD cannot be used to permit uses <br />that would not otherwise be permitted in the underlying zoning district. <br /> <br />In cases where a PUD covers multiple properties, the project is still often treated as one <br />comprehensive development; the development as a whole is expected to meet landscaping, <br />stormwater management, and other similar requirements, while individual properties are given <br /> <br />City of Arden Hills <br />Planning Commission Meeting for June 19, 2013 <br /> <br />219 <br />Page of <br /> <br />
