CITY OF ARDEN HILLS <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> DATE: June 13, 2001 <br /> TO: Mayor and City Council <br /> FROM: Mike Cronin, Interim City Planner <br /> SUBJECT: Planning Case#01-10 Concept PUD <br /> Arden Towers, 1777 Gateway Boulevard <br /> Request <br /> The applicant is requesting the review of a concept planned unit development for the <br /> property located at 1777 Gateway Boulevard (Exhibit A). <br /> Background <br /> The property at 1777 Gateway Boulevard, commonly referred to as the tower property, <br /> has a lengthy history of applications, which is summarized below. <br /> In Planning Case#81-05, a Special Use Permit was approved on this property for the <br /> construction of a 700 foot antenna tower. <br /> U.S. West made application to install an antenna array on the existing tower in Planning <br /> Case #98-10. The application was approved with the condition that they comply with the <br /> Ehresmann engineering report. After reviewing the Ehresmann report, the Building <br /> Official noted that the report did not include calculations for 1/2" radial ice as required by <br /> the State Building Code and requested it of the applicant. U.S. West submitted a new <br /> report, including this information, stating that the tower did not meet the State <br /> requirement for 1/2" radial ice nor a 69 m.p.h. wind. In a letter to the applicant, dated <br /> November 5, 1999, the Building Official found the structure to be unsafe. The State of <br /> Minnesota agreed with the City's decision to declare the tower an unsafe structure. <br /> On December 17, 1999, the applicant applied for a building permit to construct a new <br /> 700 foot tower on the site, to be in compliance with the State Code. On January 6, 2000, <br /> The Building Official denied the building permit application based on the following <br /> Sections of the Zoning Ordinance: <br /> ■ Section 6 (I) #3 (b). No antenna or tower shall exceed a height of seventy-five feet <br /> (75'). <br /> ■ Section 6 (I) #2. Antennas, satellite dish antennas and towers are allowed only as <br /> special accessory uses. They are therefore allowed only on a property containing a <br /> principal use to which the antenna, dish antenna or tower is accessory. <br /> ■ Section 6(I) 44 (d). Antennas and towers shall not be allowed nearer to any property <br /> line than the height of the antenna or tower. <br />
