7.2 Preliminary Plat: As shown on the Concept Plat, the applicant is requesting to replat four existing parcels (2990, 2996, 3008, and 3010 Cleveland Avenue North) into two parcels and dedicated City right-of-way for Langton Lake Drive. The City requires an additional 13.5 feet of right-of-way along Cleveland Avenue, which is indicated on the Concept Plat. The City Council previously approved a preliminary plat for the recombination. and subdivision of 3008 and 3010 Cleveland as part of the Applewood Pointe II Senior Cooperative Project (PF07-006). However, this approval is now void as the plat did not receive final approval within 60 days of the preliminary approval as was required by City Code at the time of the approval. 7.3 Concept PUD: United Properties is seeking to construct a 3- to 4 -story, 93 -unit assisted - living facility consisting of 46 independent -care units, 34 assisted -care units, and 13 memory -care units through the redevelopment of 2990, 2996, 3008, and 3010 Cleveland Avenue N. The facility is primarily oriented toward assisted living and memory care, but will also include congregate living for independent seniors desiring limited services. a. Building: The three- to four-story building will be approximately 62 feet in height at its highest point and is expected to total approximately 131,615 square feet in area. The majority of the building will be four stories with the exception of northern wing, which will step down to three stories to mitigate the visual impact created by the exposure of the underground parking entrance. Exterior material will include asphalt shingles, prefinished shake siding, vinyl siding, hardy -board stucco, and rock - face block. b. Setbacks: The B-6 district requires a 30 -foot front -yard setback, a15 -foot side- yard/30-foot corner lot side yard setback, and a 30 -foot rear -yard setback. As shown. on the Site Plan, the proposed building has an approximately 68 -foot front -yard setback, a 15 -foot (south) and 75 -foot (north) corner side -yard setback, and a 10 -foot rear -yard setback. As the rear yard is adjacent to Langton Lake Park, staff recommends that the rear setback be increased 20 feet to mitigate visual impacts of the building on the park, which could be accomplished by shifting the entire building to the west or making modifications to the design of the building. In addition, the plan indicated no setback between the outdoor enclosed garden and the patio/deck from the property line. Staff recommends that these elements be set back a minimum of 5 feet from the property line. c. Access: The plan shows three full access points into the site, including two from planned Langton Lake Drive from the north, one serving as the driveway for the visitor parking area and the other as the driveway for underground parking, and one from Cleveland Avenue from the west that serves the surface parking area.. d. Parking: Resident and employee parking will be accommodated through underground parking located under the building with 40 planned spaces and visitor parking will be accommodated with approximately 30 surface spaces provided on the western side of the building. The site plan indicates that indicates that the surface parking lot will be constructed of both bituminous pavement and porous pavers. PF08-020 RPCA_09030890308 Page 5 of 8
