desired within a specific land use designation including a range of uses, but do not have specific guidance for individual parcels or developments. Comprehensive Plan – Community Mixed Use Designation 2.9 The Community Development Department finds that the Wal-Mart project is allowed since CMU description neither restricts nor limits specific uses or sizes and further finds that the zoning code has incorporated a small-area plan and design principles to ensure the mix of uses and connections through the Twin Lake Regulating Plan contained in Chapter 1005.07 (E) of City Code in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan. Comprehensive Plan – Community Business Designation 2.10 The Community Development Department finds that the Wal-Mart project is allowed since the Community Business description neither restricts nor limits specific uses or sizes and further finds that the zoning code has incorporated design standards that promote community orientation and scale through the Twin Lake Regulating Plan contained in Chapter 1005.07 (E) of City Code in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan. Based on that analysis, the Community Development Department finds that the Roseville Zoning Ordinance is consistent with and has incorporated the goals and policies identified in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. Twin Lakes Business Park Master Plan 2.11 The Community Development Department finds that the Twin Lakes Business Park Master Plan, approved by the City Council on June 26, 2001, is a guiding document and not a regulatory document. Community Development Department also finds that the zoning ordinance has embraced the Twin Lakes Business Park Master Plan by including specific regulations into the Chapter 1005.07 (CMU district and the Twin Lakes Regulating Plan). The Community Development Department further finds that the issue of lot coverage, open space, and/or impervious area, is consistent between the master plan and the zoning ordinance where by both advocate a 15% minimum green area. The Community Development also finds that references regarding big-box retail development as not recommended or not encouraged do not embody a limitation or prohibition on such a use, and therefore retail of any size as a use within Twin Lakes is permissible under the Master Plan. AUAR(AUAR) 2.12 LTERNATIVERBANREAWIDEEVIEW The Twin Lakes Alternative Urban Areawide Review (AUAR) is not a land use or zoning document, it does not regulate use or size of buildings, and it is not a regulatory document per se. The AUAR is however, an environmental review document that is used by the City to determine a proposed project’s impact thresholds and the required mitigations to make that project consistent with the AUAR. The Community Development Department finds that the proposed Wal-Mart project is not inconsistent with the Twin Lakes AUAR and can proceed forward under the terms and/or mitigations addressed within the AUAR document.
