options for their expansion plans. After several months of discussions, staff identified five options for the Schreiers. The Schreiers do not believe that any of the options identified by staff are feasible, and have settled on a request to the City to consider amending the zoning map to allow for a Planned Unit Development for a one time expansion of their building (to a total of 10,000 square feet) on the 17,871 square foot southern parcel. This concept was presented as a sketch plan at the July meeting and a hearing was held at the September meeting. (Note: At the July sketch plan review and at the September public hearing, the Commission asked for more detail on why both Schreier parcels should not be included in the PUD.) 2.5 One City of Roseville land use policy is to encourage the expansion of existing businesses within the community. Charles Cabinets has been operating in this location since the 1950s, is a growing and viable family owned business, and is a valuable member of the business community. 2.6 This property is located in Planning District 2 (see Attachment, pp. Land Use 3-6). The City's Comprehensive Plan designates the entire area east of Cleveland and south to Brenner as low density residential, with the exception of the first two lots along Cleveland, south of County Road 0, which are designated for Business. 2.7 The Comprehensive Plan suggests that a master plan for the residential area be completed, in part because of its proximity to Langton Lake and Park (pp. Land Use 3-4). 3.0 BACKGROUND (City Development Codes} 3.1 The project itself is complicated by the need to update, and at the same time build new facilities and support systems, on a small site. The applicant has submitted a concept plan for one of two parcels (the southern lot consisting of 17,871 square feet). A 4,000 square foot ground floor building expansion would be added to the existing building (39'x102' - 3,978 square feet) for a total of approximately 7,978 square foot of first floor office, showroom and cabinet manufacturing plant. A portion of the building would be two story - estimated to be approximately 2,000 square feet of office. 3.2 To meet City Building and Zoning Code requirements, the existing foundations and utilities would be upgraded, the facade of the building will be upgraded, the parking area will be expanded and improved with perimeter curbing, the site will be landscaped, new signage will be installed, and the building will be sprinklered. Existing roof trusses would be improved and strengthened to support a second story. Since the City policy does not allow commercial properties to drain their surface water to the street, storm sewer would have to be extended into the parking area from Cleveland Avenue to catch surface water drainage from the site. The concept plan includes the retention of the two existing driveways (curb cuts) on Cleveland Avenue. The northern driveway will be designated as an exit, with the PF#2986 - (10/14/98) - Page 4 of 9
