ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – OCTOBER 27, 2014 15 <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden suggested that additional landscaping be placed at the County Road D <br />intersection to assist in screening the new brownstone buildings. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant wanted to see additional landscaping between the McKnight Care Center and the <br />Presbyterian Homes entrance off of Lake Johanna Boulevard. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden expressed concern with the lack of follow through on Presbyterian <br />Homes’ part with regard to the lighting, speed bumps and mitigation issues. She recommended <br />that a dead end sign be placed at the exit of Presbyterian Homes at Wheeler Avenue. <br /> <br />Councilmember McClung discussed the four amendments within the PUD request. He asked <br />how the motion should be stated regarding these amendments. <br /> <br />City Attorney Jamnik advised the Council to list all four of the amendments that were being <br />requested within the motion for approval. He stated that if any were not acceptable, that the <br />Council make a motion to deny the request. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden was in favor of a bike rack being placed outside the brownstone <br />buildings. <br /> <br />Pamela Belz, Senior Housing Partners, did not oppose working a bike rack into the site plan. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant requested comment from the applicant on the level of landscaping and trees <br />between the McKnight Care Center and the entrance to Presbyterian Homes off of Lake Johanna <br />Boulevard. <br /> <br />Ms. Belz indicated that a storm last summer took down a number of the trees that were to be <br />preserved in this area. She stated that a number of trees were replanted and ranged in size from <br />two to four caliper inches. She commented that a variety of deciduous hardwood trees were <br />planted in this area. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant inquired if additional landscaping was planned for the corner of Lake Johanna <br />Boulevard and County Road D to assist in screening the new buildings. <br /> <br />Ms. Belz explained that the original PUD called for a view shed at this corner. She commented <br />that they would be amenable to a variation of trees and tree types in this area. <br /> <br />Councilmember McClung supported additional screening in this area. He then discussed the <br />original PUD and the proposed speed calming measures that would be added to the driveway. He <br />indicated that these requirements were added to address the concerns of neighboring residents. He <br />found the speed bumps to be useful and asked why Presbyterian Homes was proposing to have <br />them removed. <br /> <br />Ms. Belz believed that the speed bumps were proposed to answer a problem that doesn’t exist. <br />She reported that there have been no reports of residents or staff speeding through the property. In <br />addition, there have been no traffic concerns raised by neighboring property owners. She <br />commented that the closing of Wheeler Avenue also addressed some of the site’s traffic concerns.
