restriction. Since the open air garden center use is not listed in the Land Use Chart as either <br />permitted or conditional use, a Conditional Use Permit may be issued for this use following <br />review by the Planning Commission and approval by the City Council, as stated in Section <br />1320.03 of the Zoning Code. A CUP was approved in Planning Case 97-009 for an outdoor <br />garden sales area on the property. <br /> <br />B. Lot Size, Structure Coverage, and Landscaping <br /> <br />The proposed Lots 1 – 5 are in conformance with the B-2 Zoning District requirements in terms <br />of minimum lot area, depth, and width. Since the site operates under an approved PUD that <br />encompasses all five of the proposed lots, the proposal was evaluated based on whether the <br />development as a whole conforms to the B-2 District requirements for structure coverage and <br />landscape coverage. <br /> <br />The maximum permitted structure coverage in the district is 45 percent. A total of 93,118 square <br />feet of building area is proposed across the five lots, for coverage of 19.4 percent. Properties <br />must maintain minimum landscape coverage of 20 percent. The development as a whole would <br />include 114,046 square feet of landscaped area, or 23.76 percent of the total area. <br /> <br /> <br />Total Area <br />(square feet) <br />Structure <br />Coverage <br />(square feet) <br />Structure <br />Coverage <br />(percentage) <br />Landscape <br />Coverage <br />(square feet) <br />Landscape <br />Coverage <br />(percentage) <br />Lot 1 (Walgreens) 76,533 14,572 19.04% 16,515 21.58% <br />Lot 2 (Future Building #2) 27,853 6,000 21.54% 7,221 25.93% <br />Lot 3 (Building #5 – Retail <br />Center) 274,702 35,801 13.03% 76,670 27.91% <br />Lot 4 (Building #5 – <br />Frattallone’s) 63,171 16,609 26.29% 6,551 10.37% <br />Lot 5 (Future Building #4) 37,732 20,136 53.37% 7,089 18.79% <br />Total (PC #15-002) 479,991 93,118 19.40% 114,046 23.76% <br />Approved PUD <br />Amendment (PC #11-016) 479,991 92,748 19.32% 112,781 23.50% <br />B-2 Zoning District <br />Requirements 13,000 45% or less 20% or more <br /> <br />C. Setbacks <br /> <br />The minimum setbacks in the B-2 District are 20 feet in the front and rear and 10 feet in the side <br />yards. The internal lot lines proposed in the Preliminary Plat are based on the locations of the <br />buildings and setbacks to these are less of a concern in planned unit developments. The primary <br />concern is setbacks to the public rights-of-way of County Road E and Lexington, as well as the <br /> <br />City of Arden Hills <br />Planning Commission Meeting for February 4, 2015 <br />P:\Planning\Planning Cases\2015\PC 15-002 - Arden Plaza - Master PUD Amendment and Subdivision\Memos_15-002 <br />Page 6 of 16
