<br />City of Arden Hills <br />Planning Commission Meeting for April 15, 2020 <br />P:\Planning\Planning Cases\2020\20-001 Comp Plan Amendment CPA <br />Page 2 of 4 <br />story, 120-unit senior housing building which will include independent living, assisted living, <br />memory care and skilled nursing. <br /> <br /> <br />The proposed development site is approximately 5.32 acres and has a net density of 21.78 units <br />per acre. However, when the plans were reviewed by the Metropolitan Council they were denied <br />over concern that the City’s recently approved 2040 Comprehensive Plan does not have language <br />supporting increasing the densities above the maximum permitted in a specific land use district. <br />In order to move the project forward a minor text amendment to the 2040 Comprehensive Plan is <br />required. <br /> <br />Plan Review <br /> <br />Prior to drafting the amendment, Staff met with Metropolitan Council Staff to discuss next steps. <br />During the meeting they informed us that any text amendment will require a maximum density <br />flexibility threshold be established. Planning Staff needed to determine a maximum density <br />ceiling. Staff reviewed Summit Developments proposal and other previously approved High <br />Density Planning Cases and determined that the maximum density should be set at 100 percent or <br />24 units per acre for areas guided for High Density on the Land Use Plan. All other previously <br />approved Planning Cases fall under the threshold except for one (1); Arden Village located on <br />County Road F has a density of 26 units per acre. <br /> <br />Staff also reviewed the Land Use chapter in the Comprehensive Plan and determined that the best <br />location to add the proposed language would be in section 6.4.10 (Attachment A) as this section <br />discusses density requirements for the community. The proposed text amendment language is <br />provided below. The language has been vetted by Metropolitan Council and they support the <br />proposed language. <br />
