<br />Guidant Corporation <br />Addition J (Building E North) <br />Land Use Application - Description Request <br />January 5,2004 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Description of Request (supplement) <br /> <br />I) Guidant is requesting a Master Plan PUD Amendment to allow the construction of Building E <br />North Addition (Addition J) as part of phase one and modifying the GSF from 80,000 to <br />90,000. <br /> <br />At the time of the development of the PUD we anticipated a sequence of construction and <br />developed a three-part phasing schedule. The purpose was to provide markers to allow an <br />evaluation of the traffic issues prior to implementation of the next phase. <br />It is difficult to predict which area of the business will grow the fastest. We are proposing to <br />construct Addition J (E-North) as part of phase one. This will bring the actual phase one square <br />footage of construction to 294,000 GSF of the proposed PUD Master Plan area of 419,000 GSF. <br /> <br />PUD MASTER PLAN <br /> <br />Approved Phase one building construction included the following: <br />Construction of Building L (Training Center) 108,000 GSF <br />Construction of Addition I (E - South) 52,300 GSF <br />Construction of Building K (Administrative Building) 259,200 GSF <br />419,500 GSF <br /> <br />Construction of Parking Ramp No 1 <br />Construction of Parking Ramp No 5 <br /> <br />net gain <br />net gain <br /> <br />500spaces <br />900 spaces <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Proposed Phase one building construction included to date: <br />Construction of Building L (Training Center) <br />Construction of Addition I (E - South) <br />Construction of Building N Addition <br />Construction of Addition J (E - North) <br /> <br />112,000 GSF <br />54,000 GSF <br />38,000 GSF <br />90.000 GSF <br />294,000 GSF <br /> <br />Construction of Parking Ramp No 1 <br />Construction of Parking Ramp No 5 <br /> <br />net gain <br /> <br />500 spaces <br />900 spaces <br /> <br />Reconstruction of Cummings Park Drive will be complete in the spring with installation of the <br />final bituminous overlay and striping. The installation of the traffic signal at Cummings Park <br />Drive and Lexington A venue will be complete in January 2004. <br /> <br />We anticipate continual growth and would like to continue the discussion with the City of Arden <br />Hills, Ramsey County and MNDOT to work towards timely traffic improvements required to <br />proceed with the future phases. <br />We expect the addition of the second northbound lane from Cummings Park Drive to Highway 96 <br />and the installation of the traffic signal at the intersection of Victoria and Lexington Avenue to be <br />complete by end of 2005 to satisfy the traffic improvements necessary to proceed with phase <br />two. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Page 10f2 <br />
