ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - APRIL 24, 2000 7 . Ms. Becker stated that industrial tenants prefer to have their own trash enclosures, and her company ensures that they, and the exterior of the building, are well maintained. Councilmember Larson stated the buildings would be more attractive from the road with the addition of wing walls or landscape screening. Ms. Becker stated there is landscape screening throughout the property, between the buildings and along the property lines. Councilmember Larson stated some screening is required at the entrance to the parking lots from the main road. Ms. Becker stated the buildings were positioned for visibility from the freeway interchange. Mayor Probst stated he supports the amendment, but agrees that the enclosures were not envisioned in the original site plan. He expressed his frustration over the difference between what the Council approved and what has occurred on the site. MOTION: I. . 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Case #00-18, SUP Amendment, Mounds View High School, 1900 Valentine Lake Road Mr. Lynch explained that the applicant is requesting approval of an amendment to their Special Use Permit for Mounds View Senior High School. Mounds View Senior High School is currently operating on an SUP, which was issued in September 1978, in Planning Case #78-23. In February 1984, the City Council approved a SUP for the site Master Plan, only a Site Plan review process would be required rather than amending the SUP. Staff has determined that due to the building addition and major changes proposed we will process the request as a SUP amendment. In the future, minor changes would still be able to be processed as a Site Plan Review. The intention of the Master Plan is to establish the long range vision for the campus, including a physical plan and also specific land use control. .
