ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MAY 29, 2018 11 <br /> <br />9.

The applicant has proposed to retain and resurface the existing legal nonconforming <br />freestanding sign at the intersection of Lexington Avenue and County Road F. <br />11. The proposal is not expected to adversely affect the surrounding area of the community as <br />a whole. <br /> <br />City Planner Bachler stated the Planning Commission recommended approval (4-0) of Planning <br />Case 18-010 for a Site Plan Review at 4061 Lexington Avenue North, based on the findings of <br />fact and the submitted plans in the May 29, 2018 Report to the City Council, as amended by the <br />following ten (10) conditions: <br /> <br />1. The project shall be completed in accordance with the plans submitted as amended by the <br />conditions of approval. Any significant changes to the plans, as determined by the City <br />Planner, shall require review and approval by the Planning Commission and City <br />Council. <br />2. A Grading and Erosion Control Permit shall be required prior to the commencement of <br />the site modifications. <br />3.

The applicant shall work with Ramsey County to address the Lexington Avenue access <br />driveway. <br />8. A Ramsey County Right-of-Way Permit shall be required for any work being completed <br />in the County Road F or Lexington Avenue right-of-way. <br />9.

Before construction, grading, or land clearing begins, trees or tree areas that are to be <br />preserved shall be visibly marked and city-approved tree protection fencing or other <br />method shall be installed and maintained at the critical root zones of the trees to be <br />protected. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden asked why the school would be called Primrose School of Shoreview. <br /> <br />City Planner Bachler stated he believed the applicant was using Shoreview for marketing <br />purposes even though it was located in Arden Hills. <br /> <br />Councilmember McClung expressed concern with the ability to get fire trucks in and around <br />this property. He feared the current circulation route would be problematic and inquired if this <br />has been addressed by staff.
