<br /> <br />Page 3 of 7 <br />Following the review of the proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendments, the Applicant will be <br />required to submit another land use application for the development approvals. Based on the <br />feedback Trident Development received from the City Council during the Concept Review, <br />they’ve chosen to proceed with the preparation of their final development plans for this site. <br />Based on the concept review plans, staff believes this proposal would require the following land <br />use requests: <br />• Preliminary Plat and Final Plat for Subdivision <br />• Vacation of Easements (i.e. drainage/wetland) <br />• Rezoning of the development site from B-1, Limited Business and R-1 – Single-Family <br />Residential District to R-4 – Multiple Dwelling District <br />• Conditional Use Permit for Multiple Family Dwelling in the R-4 District <br />• Master and Final Planned Unit Development <br /> <br />Comprehensive Plan Amendment Review <br /> <br />1. Future Land Use Designation <br />For this application, Trident Development has requested that the 2040 future land use <br />designation for the northwest corner of the Subject Property (i.e. approximately 10.75 acres) be <br />amended from P/I, Public and Institutional to be guided as HDR, High Density Residential. The <br />developed portion of the site (i.e. Church use, approximately 30 acres) would remain as is under <br />the Public and Institutional land use designation. The Arden Hills 2040 Future Land Use Map <br />would also be amended to reflect the change in land use classification. (Attachment E) <br /> <br />• Public and Institutional (P/I) – Areas designated for uses such as government buildings, <br />colleges, schools, and religious uses, but not medical uses. A Development intensity of <br />up to 0.8 FAR may be allowed. <br />• High Density Residential (HDR) – Townhome and multi-family residential land use <br />category providing for densities of nine (9) to twelve (12) units per acre. <br /> <br />The majority of the property is zoned R-1, Single Family Residential District. Approximately 6 <br />acres of land at the northwest corner of the site adjacent to the Highway 96 and U.S. Highway 10 <br />interchange is zoned B-1, Limited Business District. The property is also within 1,000 feet of <br />Round Lake and would be subject to applicable Shoreland regulations. If the proposed <br />amendment to the future land use designation was approved, the Applicant would include as part <br />of their subsequent submittal a request to rezone the property to R-4, Multiple-Dwelling District <br />to be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The following table identifies the zoning and <br />2040 Future Land Use designations for the areas immediately adjacent to the Subject Property: <br /> <br /> North Heights <br />Property North South East West <br />Zoning <br />R-1 (35 acres) <br />B-1 (6 acres) <br />Shoreland <br />TRC – Flex <br />Office, Retail <br />Mixed Use <br />Parks and <br />Open <br />Space R-1 R-1 <br />Future Land <br />Use Public & Institutional <br />Flex Office, Retail <br />Mixed Use <br />(TCAAP) <br />Parks and <br />Open <br />Space <br />Low Density <br />Residential, <br />Low <br />Density <br />Residential
