both cities will be met. Arden Hills' lighting standards indicate requirements for direction, source concealment, interrsity and exterior lighting. These requirements will be met, including the requirement that light will not be cast exceeding a meter reading of 0.4 foot candles on adjoining residential properties. Roseville's design standards state similar requirements with lighting levels not to exceed a meter reading of 0.5 foot candles on adjoining residential properties. In accordance with condition.s oJ approva! of the PUD, lighting from any new or remodeled structures, parking lots, or roads are prohibited from shining directly onto adjacent properties and shall not exceed the lighting limitations in the Zoning Code. This requirement wifl be addressed by the College. Temporary visual impacts are expec[ed during construction including various construction equipment, stock piling of dirt and materials at the site. No permanent visual impacts are anticipated ufter construction of the Project is complete. 27. Compatibility with plans and land use regulations. Is the project subject to an adopted local comprehensive plan, land use plan or regulation, or other applicable land use, water, or resource management plan of a local, regional, state or federal agency? X Yes No. If yes, describe the plan, discuss its compatibility with the project and explain how any contlicts will be resolved. [f no, explain. The narthern portion of the campus, located in Arden Hills, is zoned Residential (R-1). The R-1 District allows institutions of higher learning (School, Higher Education) as a Planned Unit according to the Land Use Chart in Section S.E. of the City ofArden Hills' Zoning Ordinance. The southern portion ofNorthwestern College's campus, located in Roseville, is zoned PUD - Planned Unit Development. Chapter 1008.01 of the City of Roseville's Zoning Code states: "A planned unit development "PUD " is a zoning district which may include single or mixed uses, one or more lots or parcels, intended to create a more flexible, creative and e�cient approach to the use of land and subject to the procedures, standards, and regulations contained in this Chapter. " In either City, the changes envisioned in the Master Plan will not require modifrcations in the Zoning Regulations or Zoning Districts. Likewise, no changes in Si�bdivision Regulations are needed. The vehicle for addressing the modiftcations of the campus is the Planned Unit Development (PUD) which is a process allowed in both cities' zoning regulations. PUDs allow developments of all kind.s, (residential, commercial, instilutional) to move forward withiiz the framework of the regzrlations, recognizing the unique nature of the project or institution. No modifrcations are needed to either cities' Comprehensive Plans or Zoning Ordinances. Northwestern College is consistent with the Comprehensive Plans and Future Land Use associated with each Ciry. 28. Impact on infrastructure and public services. Will new or expanded utilities, roads, other infrastructure or public services be required to serve the project? Yes X No. If yes, describe the new or additional infrastructure or services needed. (Note: any infrastructure that is a connected action with respect to the project must be assessed in the EAW; see EAW Guidelines for details.) 29. Cumulative impacts. Minnesota Rule part 4410.1700, subpart 7, item B requires that the RGU consider the "cumulative potential effects of related or anticipated future projects" when determining the need for an environmental impact statement. Identify any past, present or reasonably foreseeabie future projects that may interact with the project described in this EAW in such a way as to cause cumulative impacts. Describe the nature of the cumulative impacts and summarize any other available information relevant to determining whether there is potential for significant environmental effects due to cumulative impacts (or discuss each cumulative impact under appropriate item(s) elsewhere on this form). There are no lrnown past, present or reasonably foreseeable futtrre projects that may interact with the project to produce cumulative impacts. The existing EAW and associated studies take into account past Pnge I S
