Information was included for the concept review on the current staffing ratio for the School. The <br />Applicant has not provided detail on typical hours or other activities that might take place for the <br />school and/or house of worship land uses. The narrative notes that the site features an outdoor <br />courtyard that could be used as an outdoor classroom or lunch area and that the 4295 building <br />could be converted for athletic facilities. During the initial discussion with the Applicant prior to <br />their submittal for the concept review, it was stated that this location is attractive because of the <br />proximity to Cummings Park for use of the playground, outdoor athletic court/field, and <br />amenities. <br />For this proposal, the Applicant has stated there would be no changes to the current site layout. <br />At this stage, they're seeking feedback as part of the concept review on the proposed land uses <br />and text amendment that would be necessary in the I-1 Zoning District. Given the preliminary <br />nature of the discussion, the Applicant has not provided information on site circulation, traffic <br />generation, or plans for other on -site outdoor amenities that are typical of a School. A change in <br />use or modification to the site circulation/layout would need to take into consideration potential <br />impacts to all four buildings under the PUD. <br />Comprehensive Plan <br />The Subject Property is guided as Light Industrial and Office (IND) in the Arden Hills 2040 <br />Comprehensive Plan Land Use Chapter. The area is designated for a broad range of light <br />industrial uses such as manufacturing, processing, and warehousing. This land use designation <br />may also include offices. The expected share of uses within this area are as follows: 50% to <br />100% Light Industrial and 0% to 100% Office. A Development intensity of up to 0.8 FAR may <br />be allowed. According to the Comprehensive Plan the total area of the IND is 346 acres, or <br />5.7% of the total land area in the City. The existing land use for the Subject Property is Office <br />and Industrial. <br />Zoning District Land Uses <br />The Subject Property is within the I-1, Limited Industrial Zoning District. The purposes of this <br />district are: <br />A. To allow only those types and intensities of industrial uses that do not detract from the <br />surrounding area. <br />B. To maintain performance standards to keep the intensity of land utilization lower than in <br />the general Industrial District. <br />As part of the concept review, the Applicant is requesting feedback on a text amendment to the I- <br />1 Zoning District to allow a School, General Education and House of Worship as a Conditional <br />Use. <br />R-1 <br />R-2 <br />R�3 <br />R4 <br />NB <br />B-1 <br />B-2 <br />B-3 <br />B-4 <br />CC <br />GB <br />1-1 <br />!-2 <br />i- <br />FLEX <br />CO <br />PCs <br />1HST <br />House of <br />C <br />C <br />G <br />C <br />G <br />C <br />C <br />C <br />C <br />C <br />v.orship <br />Scillool, <br />G <br />C <br />G <br />G <br />=_ <br />__ <br />__ <br />__ <br />_= <br />C <br />general <br />education <br />The City Attorney as part of this concept review has provided information for the City Council to <br />consider for regulating religious land uses (Attachment Q. <br />Page 3 of 4 <br />
