The second component of the amendment is to revise the construction schedule outlined in the PUD Development Agreement. Under the current construction schedule, Presbyterian Homes was required to begin site work for the first Brownstone Building in September 2013 and begin construction of the second Brownstone Building in March of 2014. Additionally, all final landscaping and hardscaping improvements for the property were to be completed by the spring of 2015. While Sutton Place has been demolished and the area stabilized, for efficiency reasons Presbyterian Homes does not expect to start on the construction of the Brownstone Buildings until 2015. Therefore, they are requesting that the construction schedule be amended to reflect the revised anticipated schedule. Presbyterian Homes would be required to obtain a Grading and Erosion Control Permit and commence preliminary site work for the Brownstone Buildings by December 31, 2014, and to begin construction on the buildings by June 30, 2015. All final landscaping and hardscaping improvements would need to be completed by December 31, 2016. Presbyterian Homes is requesting that the four hospice units approved under the Master PUD for the Lakeview Building be reallocated to Brownstone Buildings as independent senior apartments. If approved, the number of units in the buildings would increase from 36 to 40. As discussed previously, the hospice units were approved for the Lakeview Building but were not constructed because a hospice program was not implemented by the organization. The space in the Lakeview Building where the hospice units were to be constructed is now being used as additional storage space for the facility and will not be used for residential purposes. This request would not increase the total of 410 dwelling units approved in the original Master PUD and the approved net density of 18.2 units per acre would remain unchanged. The final component of the PUD Amendment request is a revision to the conditions in the PUD Development Agreement regarding traffic calming. Presbyterian Homes is now in the process of installing three speed bumps on the County Road D driveway between the parking lot of the primary building and where the Brownstone underground parking will be located, as required by the PUD Development Agreement. The purpose of these speed bumps was to deter residents from using the County Road D access driveway and to limit the amount of traffic that would cut through Wheeler Avenue in Roseville. Presbyterian Homes has noted that the heavy use of the County Road D access has not materialized and that the City of Roseville has taken the additional step of temporarily closing off access to Wheeler Avenue from County Road D. The request is to amend the PUD Development Agreement to state that if upon the completion of the required Wheeler Avenue and County Road D Traffic Study one year after the full redevelopment of the site it is determined that the three speed bumps are not necessary for traffic calming purposes that Presbyterian Homes be permitted to remove them. Presbyterian Homes has provided a project narrative included in Attachment A that outlines the details of the PUD Amendment request. A complete plan set including civil and architectural plans, as well as elevation and perspective drawings of the Brownstone Buildings, is included in Attachment C.
