<br />. <br />. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - SEPTEMBER 30. 1996 26 <br />f' Councilmember Malone expressed concern about consideration of a lower office percentage and <br /> potential for establishing an adverse precedent. Mr. Zehring asserted that valid distinctions can <br /> be made between the northern parcel as opposed to other parcels within the District. <br />. Mr. Ringwald explained that if you look at the overall description of the District, the intent is for <br /> the overall area, but the City needs to also consider specific site considerations. <br />. Mayor Probst commented on the importance to indicate the clear intent that the Council is <br />. looking for the District at-large to achieve indicated percentages. <br /> Mr. Filla advised the Council needs to keep in mind the standards Arden Hills has for granting <br />. variances regarding the need to allow reasonable use of the property. It was noted the applicant <br /> has indicated this property cannot be used in the desired manner because ofthe inability to obtain <br /> financing for this type of building and office/warehouse mix. Mr. Filla pointed out that this need <br />. for financing will be a concern with all developers for this type of proposal. <br /> MOTION: Malone moved and Aplikowski seconded a motion to approve Planning Case #96- <br />. 12, Oakdale Development Corporation, 4300 Round Lake Road, Site Plan, <br /> Variance and Vacation of Easement, based on the conditions outlined by the <br /> Plamling Commission, and based on the rationale the developers will meet all <br />Ie recommendations set forth by the Planning Commission and Staff; recognition <br /> has been made and changes made to the building elevation and landscaping; <br /> allowing this office space for this site to be dropped to a minimum of 8% based <br />. upon the developer's documentation that financing for this project would not <br /> otherwise be available; this is the first building in the Gateway area and the <br />. "trigger" to allow for future development, and to meet the objectives of the <br /> Gateway District and its overall intent, this reduction in office percentage is <br /> necessary. The motion carried unanimously (5-0). <br />. Mayor Probst stated the Council is delighted with the proposed project and welcomed it into the <br /> City of Arden Hills. <br />. ADMINISTRATOR COMMENTS <br />. Mr. Fritsinger updated the Council regarding the records retention and file management program <br /> which will be further discussed, and the potential to close City Hall on Columbus Day to allow <br /> staff the opportunity to better organize files.

Mr. Fritsinger reminded that City Hall architectural firm interviews have bcen scheduled for <br /> October 14th at 4:30 p.m. <br />. <br />it <br />. <br />
