ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – OCTOBER 12, 2020 10 <br /> <br />AMENDMENT: Councilmember Scott moved and Mayor Grant seconded a motion to <br />amend Condition 31 to read as follows: Warehousing and wholesaling <br />shall not exceed 80 percent of the total floor area. The remaining 20 <br />percent of the total floor area shall be non-warehouse uses such as a <br />combination of uses including-but-not-limited-to office, <br />manufacturing, production, research and development, lab and/or <br />showroom. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant questioned how the square footage of the building space would be calculated if a <br />second level mezzanine was constructed within this building. <br /> <br />Community Development Manager/City Planner Mrosla stated this would depend on how the <br />mezzanine level was used. He reported if the space was finished office space, it would count <br />towards the 20% calculation. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden asked if this would increase the floor area ratio. <br /> <br />Community Development Manager/City Planner Mrosla indicated this was the case and noted <br />the site could support additional parking. He noted he spoke to the applicant regarding second <br />floor mezzanines and understood these were quite rare. <br /> <br />A roll call vote was taken. The amendment carried 3-2 <br />(Councilmember Holden and Councilmember McClung opposed). <br /> <br />AMENDMENT: Councilmember Holden moved and Mayor Grant seconded a motion to <br />add Condition 34 as follows: The property owner shall perform annual <br />maintenance on the areas where Mesic Prairie seed mix is utilized. <br /> <br />A roll call vote was taken. The amendment carried (5-0). <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden stated the Council did not have a material list or physical material <br />board. <br /> <br />Community Development Manager/City Planner Mrosla reported staff did not receive a <br />detailed materials board from the developer. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden expressed concern with the fact the materials could be changed after the <br />Council approved the Planning Case. <br /> <br />Community Development Manager/City Planner Mrosla stated the Council could require the <br />applicant to submit a materials board or material mock up prior to receiving a building permit. <br /> <br />Mr. Salzar reported he had provided staff with sample materials for the building. He requested <br />the Council not require a building mock up prior to the issuance of a building permit. <br />
