<br />. <br /> <br />ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - MARCH 30.1998 <br /> <br />17 <br /> <br />MOTION: <br /> <br />Councilmember Malone moved and Councilmember Hicks seconded a motion to <br />approve Planning Case #98-26A, Bethel College, 3900 Bethel Drive, Special Use <br />Permit Amendment modifYing condition #6 to state: "Traffic generated by the <br />normal college use shall not exceed volumes anticipated for low to medium <br />density (approximately 3 to 4.5 dwelling units per acre) residential development <br />of the site (5,670 trips per day)" <br /> <br />In response to Mayor Probst, Mr. Ringwald explained that the principal change is that Bethel is <br />reaching their maximum development with the limitation being parking requirements. <br /> <br />Craig Hjelle, Bethel College Facilities Director, explained the Planning Commission requested <br />a traffic count to determine the amount of traffic being generated so they could amend the SUP to <br />reflect that number and allow for the final grO\vth in the campus. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br /> 1. <br /> 2. <br /> 3. <br /> 4. <br /> 5. <br />. 6. <br /> 7. <br /> <br />The motion carried unanimously (4-0). <br /> <br />5. Case #98-07, Bethel College, 3900 Bethel Drive, Site Plan Review <br /> <br />Mr. Ringwald explained that the petitioner is requesting approval of a site plan to allow for the <br />construction of a new 276 unit residence hall and a 33,936 square foot addition to the existing <br />Science, Art, and Technology Building on the interior portion of the Bethel College campus. The <br />request also includes height variances for the rcsidence hall (42 feet 8 inches is proposed when <br />35 feet is the maximum allowed) and the addition to the Science, Art, and Technology Building <br />(47 feet proposed when 35 feet is the maximum allowed). <br /> <br />Mr. Ringwald stated the Planning Commission questioned the view since the walkout dorm is <br />being pulled down the slope to avoid trees and vegetation which exposed the basement and <br />requires a height variance. The Planning Commission asked if it makes a difference and if it <br />would be visible from Old Highway 10. He presented a picture identifying the existing condition <br />in the winter season and explained that locating the dorm higher on the hillside will bring the <br />height ofthe dorm above the level of the trees. <br /> <br />Mr. Ringwald reported that the Plarming Commission recommends approval of the Site Plan for <br />the 33,936 square foot addition to the existing Science, Art, and Technology Building at 3900 <br />Bethel Drive, including a height variance based on "Findings - Height Variance" contained in the <br />staff report and subject to the following conditions: <br /> <br />Approval of this construction is contingent upon the approval of the amendment to the <br />Special Use Permit in Planning Case #96-26A. <br />Provision of erosion control plans for the proposed construction. <br />Approval of the plans by the Rice Creek Watershed District. <br />The small cst amount of bare ground is exposed for as short a time as feasible. <br />Temporary ground cover, such as mulch, is used and permanent ground cover, such as <br />sod, is established. <br />Methods to prevent erosion and trap sediments are employed. <br />Fill is stabilized to accepted engineering standards, approved by the City Engineer. <br />
