<br />ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION - NOVEMBER 3, 1999 <br /> <br />DRAFT <br /> <br />4 <br /> <br />Commissioner Baker asked if the buildings in this development have cross parking easements. a <br />Ms. Randall stated that all the buildings were stand alone and could be sold separately. ..- <br />Commissioner Baker asked what the total amollilt of office the applicant was proposing. Ms. <br />Randall stated that the request was for 34 percent office for the entire building; however, the <br />percentage of use by the applicant would be approximately 72 percent office. She indicated that <br />the only warehouse use would be for storage of docwnentation. Commissioner Baker expressed <br />concern for there being enough parking for such an intense office use. <br /> <br />Chair Erickson noted that staff had more time to analyze the request and appeared to not be <br />concerned with locking up the loading dock space with parking due to the requirement that the <br />parking be eliminated ifthe space changes hands. He asked if the 34 percent office use was <br />based upon the current and proposed mix. Ms. Randall stated that the 34 percent was not based <br />on the current mix. Rather, it was the difference between the approximately 72 percent of office <br />use proposed by the applicant and the current 20 percent office use of the rest of the building. <br />She indicated that the reason for this was that there was nothing to stop the owner of the <br />development from renting to this applicant at a higher level of office use. However, in order to <br />do this, the anlount of office use by the other tenants would have to be reduced to make up the <br />difference. The owner of the development was not comfortable with this arrangement as it may <br />result in the building being less marketable. <br /> <br />Commissioner Baker asked how the City will ensure that the entire building will not go to 34 <br />percent office with all the tenants requiring loading docks. Ms. Randall stated that, if the <br />applicant leases the proposed space in the building, the remainder of the building cannot exceed <br />20 percent office use. If another tenant did exceed 20 percent office use, the owner of the e <br />development would be required to solve the parking situation or force the tenant to vacate the <br />building. <br /> <br />Commissioner Baker confirmed that the applicant would meet all other criteria of the Gateway <br />Business Zoning District. Ms. Randall stated that this was correct. <br /> <br />Commissioner Nelson asked if the recommendation would have to state that other tenants of the <br />building cannot exceed a 20 percent office use. Ms. Randall stated that this restriction would be <br />handled by the requirements of the planned llilit development. <br /> <br />Commissioner Duchenes asked how long the applicant's term in this building will be. Ms. <br />Randall stated that this may not have been negotiated yet. <br /> <br />If the use of the bay doors will be restricted, Commissioner Duchenes asked how the applicant <br />would take deliveries. Ms. Randall stated that the applicant would take deliveries through the <br />front entry, similar to other businesses. If the applicant were to need the loading dock for an <br />occasional delivery, the applicant would have to coordinate with its employees and another <br />business to park elsewhere temporarily. <br /> <br />Commissioner Duchenes asked ifthe addition of the handicap parking space would result in a net <br />loss in this row of parking spaces. Ms. Randall stated that the row of parking had excess room to <br />allow for the addition of the handicap parking space. e <br /> <br />Commissioner Nelson confirmed that the City may not be aware of a new tenant moving into the <br />proposed space until there are complaints. Ms. Randall stated that the City staff would become <br />aware of a new tenant when a request for a building permit was made for interior updates. <br />
