The consolidation will bring approximately 900 employees currently located at the Shoreview site onto <br />the Arden Hills campus. The estimated employee count after the consolidation in late 2018 will be <br />approximately 2100 employees. <br />Also included in the project is the renovation of approximately 138,000 square feet in the existing Arden <br />Hills corporate building. The renovation will include the expansion of the corporate <br />cafeteria/conference (approximately 20,000 sf.), reconfiguration of the loading dock area <br />(approximately 11,000 sf.) and renovation of office areas (approximately 107,000 sf.) based on new <br />workplace strategies. <br /> <br />Existing Site and Past Approvals <br />The project site contains two existing corporate campus buildings, surface parking lot with <br />approximately 931 parking stalls, approximately 22.7 acres of wooded area, (approx. 31,636 cal. Inches <br />of trees on site), open lawn areas and regional stormwater facilities. The following are descriptions of <br />the existing uses on site: <br />1. Land O’Lakes east Headquarter building: Four story building, 56’ in height, with a total of <br />201,300 gross floor area. <br />2. Land O’Lakes Research and Development building: Two story building, 28’ feet in height, with <br />the exception of a 3,000 sq. ft. element that will be 50 feet tall, and approximately 62,500 gross <br />floor area. <br />It should be noted that Land O’Lakes does not own the small triangular parcel (south-east corner of the <br />Land O’Lakes site) at the north-west corner of the intersection of Lexington Avenue N. and the on-ramp <br />for Highway 694 west. This parcel is owned by Roger J. Reiling and his trust. <br />Past Approvals <br />In 1979, the City of Arden Hills approved a Special Use Permit – Case No. 79-4 for the original PUD plan <br />for the Land O’Lakes corporate headquarters site. A list of all of the processed planning cases for the <br />project site are identified below: <br />1. Special Use Permit Agreement & Planned Unit Development: Planning Case 79-004 <br />2. Site Plan Review – Parking Lot Expansion: Planning Case 87-027 <br />3. Site Plan Review – Building Addition: Planning Case 88-028 <br /> <br />Development Concept <br />The overall design concept for the corporate headquarters consolidation project is based on the strong <br />commitment that Land O’Lakes has to building strong communities, creating enduring livelihoods and <br />being effective stewards of natural resources. The company has a strong track record working with its <br />public and private partners to address everything from water quality and soil conservation to pollinator <br />health. For this project, Land O’Lakes would like to reinforce these core values by constructing a new <br />corporate building and related site improvements that is driven by best sustainable design practices and <br />reinforces their strong commitment to land stewardship.
