Bradley Real Estate owns the property occupied by Roseville <br />Center, as well as the two properties formerly occupied by the Margolis Nursery and <br />Fina Petroleum. The shopping center and Fina parcels are located in a SC, <br />Shopping Center District, and the Margolis parcel is located in a B-1, Limited <br />Business District. Adjacent land uses include a combination of residential and <br />commercial to the north and south, and commercial to the east and west. In order to <br />upgrade the center, Bradley Real Estate is proposing to combine the three parcels <br />into a three lot subdivision and designate the entire development as a planned unit <br />development. <br /> <br />2.2 Process. The site development plan for the Center has been continuously modified <br />and improved since the original application was submitted in September 1997. The <br />overall flow of traffic on the site, as well as to and from the site off public rights-of- <br />way, has been improved by relocating a curbcut on Larpenteur Avenue West further <br />to the west (southwest of Taco Bell), modifying the Taco Bell drive-through, <br />modifying the Snyder Drug drive-through, and realigning off-street parking areas <br />west of Taco Bell and east of Snyder Drug. The site development plan was also <br />modified to include the design elements outlined in the Larpenteur Avenue <br />Streetscape Master Plan, provide improved pedestrian access to the site, increase <br />the amount of landscaping on the site, and integrate the overall design and <br />appearance of the buildings and signage for the Center and Taco Bell, and provide <br />pylon signs which are Agrounded.= <br /> <br />2.3 Proposed Improvements - Multi-tenant Building (Lot 2). Proposed improvements to <br />the facade of the building include replacement of the roof with a new painted metal <br />standing seam roof with a 12 inch vertical cornice (slate blue), installation of a <br />removable metal panel raceway which will also be used as a sign band (neutral), <br />brick column enclosures including a broken block base (Kasota stone <br />appearance )and painted metal caps matching the roof color. A center tower is also <br />proposed, which includes a broken block base planter with pin mounted painted <br />metal letters identifying Roseville Center and a painted metal cap, brick columns, <br />painted metal plates, I-beam columns, metal panels, and backlit Kalwall glazing <br /> <br />PF#2963 - RCA (03/10/98) - Page 2 of 7 <br />
