<br />City of Arden Hills <br />Planning Commission Meeting for November 9, 2016 <br /> <br />Page 8 of 18 <br />F. Setbacks – Meets Requirements <br /> <br />The minimum building setbacks in the I-1 – Limited Industrial District include a 55 foot <br />front yard setback, 20 foot rear yard setback, 20 foot side yard setbacks, and a 50 foot side <br />yard corner setback where applicable. As proposed, all buildings except for the daycare side <br />yard setback will meet all setback requirements. Setbacks from internal lot lines are less of a <br />concern since the site will operate as an integrated PUD. <br /> <br /> Permitted Bank Retail Daycare <br />Front Yard Setback 55’ ~90’ ~90’ ~65’ <br />Rear Yard Setback 20’ ~62’ ~55’ ~115’ <br />Side Yard Setback 20’ ~55’ (South) ~30’ (North) ~15’ (East) <br />Side Yard Setback 20’ N/A ~75’ (South) ~85’ (West) <br />Side Yard Corner 50’ ~60’ N/A N/A <br /> <br /> <br />Section 1325 – General Regulations <br /> <br />A. Tree Preservation – Requesting Flexibility <br /> <br />The applicant submitted a Tree Survey and Tree Replacement Plan as part of their tree <br />preservation and mitigation requirements (Attachment B). The following table outlines these <br />numbers and the additional requirements of the tree preservation ordinance pertaining to tree <br />removal and tree mitigation regulations. <br /> <br />Development of the site as proposed in the Master PUD requires extensive tree removal. The <br />applicant has stated their intent to redevelop the site in such a way that preserves as many <br />high quality trees as possible, knowing that many of the significant trees will have to be <br />removed in order for the property to accommodate the new development. Based on the <br />proposed tree removal for the project, the City’s Tree Preservation Ordinance requires 468 <br />caliper inches of tree plantings. At this time, the applicant is proposing 45 caliper inches, or <br />18, replacement trees. <br /> <br />Entire Site Cal.
