Retail development at Lexington and Grey Fox Road, Arden Hills. Ie This approximately 5-acre site located at the intersection of Lexington Avenue and Grey Fox Road is currently occupied by an existing industrial/office showroom building. Current market trends have generated intetest in this area for retail uses that could benefit existing neighboring retail developments. I The first phase of the development is a 4,137 sq. ft. 98-seat Arby's/Sbarro restaurant. The site plan is designed to accommodate possible renovation of the existing warehouse to retail as well as future retail development to the west. The neighboring retail development, Shannon Square has wotked closely with the I design of this development and is providing an access easement that aligns \vith their current parking drive aisles and benefits traffic flow between the two sites. Access to the site is accommodated maintaining the existing curb cut at the east end of Grey Fox Road. The existing curb cuts going west along Grey Fox I would be eliminated and future access would be provided at the far west end of the site to align ....ith a future service drive once the railroad easement is abandoned. The distant separation of these access points along Grey Fox should aid in the vehicular flow and stacking. A new curb cut is proposed along Lexington I Avenue at the mid point of the site. This is critical access for the fast food restaurant and alleviates traffic p tessure on Grey Fox Road. The existing pond area ptesently accommodates both Shannon Square and this site as it exists to date. A I pond easement exists between both parcels. The pond v.ill be reconstructed to handle the new Arby's restaurant as well as future development (based on an estimate of typical building uses.) The design \\ill meet current NURP standards. Wetland related issues are not involved due to less than 1/2 acre of I excavation. The engineering will meet watetshed district criteria for water quality and rate control. Sanitary waste will connect to existing public sanitary services. I it \-,:' .'L_ ." !;" ,;.~ '\ I ---------.-----.. _._~--_....-._- . - ---..
