. . . he added if it were determined to be necessary. At the January 2005 Planning Commission meeting several commissioners indicated that if the used oil collection building were to be in operation on a 24 hour a day basis, then a security video camera should be installed to monitor the area. In addition, it was suggested that an interior video camera may increase the safety of the used oil collection building. Staff has included one exterior security video camera as a condition of approval. In addition, staff has included a condition that would require the County to install an interior security video camera ifthe Arden Hills City Council determined that the second video camera was necessary to insure the safety of potential users of the used oil collection building. 2. Aesthetics - Code Requirement Met The proposal calls for an area of impervious surface and one 200 square foot building to contain the used oil collection area. The proposed building would have a Nova Brick exterior with an asphalt shingle roof. Nova Brick is not expressly listed in the CC District list of building materials. However, it appears to be a solid material which has the look of a block or brick building and should be compatible with the other building materials used on site. While the interest of the Civic Center District is to create an area of attractive public facilities, with the exception of the "face" of the complex facing Highway 96, the remainder of the main building and accessory buildings have been constructed of pre-cast concrete or other materials not specifically permitted in the CC District. The proposed used oil collection building should not be visible from Highway 96, only from the internal portion of the site or from the rear. The attachments show a picture of a maintenance building constructed in Chaska which used similar construction materials to what is being proposed. The coloring of the proposed building should be compatible with the main building and Sheriff Water Patrol building at the Ramsey County Public Works Facility. 3. Lot Coverage - Code Requirement Met The CC: Civic Center District requires that no more than 40% of the lot be covered by structure. The proposed used oil building footprint is 200 square feet while the parcel is 1,524,600 square feet. This results in approximately 19% of the lot being covered by structure.
