Ell'HILLS <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> DATE: March 26,2012 <br /> TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers <br /> Patrick Klaers, City Administrator <br /> FROM: Meagan Beekman, City Planner <br /> SUBJECT: Planning Case#12-007 <br /> Applicant: 1201 County Road E LLC (TAT Properties LLC) <br /> Property Location: 1201 Nest County Road E <br /> Request: Preliminary and Final Plat, Master and Final Planned Unit Development <br /> Requested Action <br /> Review and discuss the applicant's proposal to convert the former Holiday Inn into a 155-unit <br /> apartment building. Provide Staff and the applicant feedback and direction on how to proceed. <br /> Background <br /> The property at 1201 County Road E is owned by TAT Properties, represented by Rob <br /> Davidson. In March 2008, the City approved a request from TAT Properties and Northwestern <br /> College granting an Interim Use Permit (IUP) at the former Holiday Inn property that would <br /> allow the College to operate a student housing facility in the B-2 District. TAT Properties had <br /> purchased the building and intended to lease it, in its entirety, to Northwestern College. The IUP <br /> expired on May 30,2011. Prior to the expiration of the IUP, the City approved a request by TAT <br /> Properties to allow the student housing on a permanent basis provided that Northwestern College <br /> remained the sole tenant of the building. Citing a drop in expected attendance and financing, <br /> Northwestern College withdrew their interest in the property shortly after that approval. <br /> Northwestern College has since vacated the building. <br /> Cify of Arden Hills <br /> City Council Work Session for March 26, 2012 <br /> liMeiro-inetuslardenhillsiPlanningWiann ng Cases12d12112-007-1201 County Road E-PUD and Plat{Pendingll43-26-12-CC WS-1201 <br /> County!toad F,PUD-Memo.docx <br /> Page I of 5 <br />
