(PF31 06) <br /> <br />1.0 Req uested Action <br /> <br />1.1 Rosewood Estates proposes to install an emergency generator to supply power to the assisted <br />senior housing project, due to the heavy reliance on electricity to run refrigeration, resident <br />oxygen systems, HV AC systems, communication systems, personal help notification systems <br />and elevators. Staff has defined this equipment and systems as an essential emergency <br />servIce. <br /> <br />1.2 Rosewood Estates requests approval to allow installation of a fully enclosed emergency <br />generator with a self-contained fuel storage cell in their front yard at 2750 Victoria Street. <br />Section 902.06C requires permit approval by the City Council to install an above ground fuel <br />storage tank. <br /> <br />1.3 The City Code does not specifically address such fully enclosed emergency energy <br />generators with a self-contained fuel storage cell. <br /> <br />2.0 Background <br /> <br />2.1 The site is located in Comprehensive Plan District No.4., which encompasses an area from <br />Lexington Avenue on the west and ends on the shoreline of Lake Owasso on the east, and <br />from County Road "D on the north to County Road "C" on the south. To the north, south <br />and west of the site are single family homes. West of the site also lies the Lake Ridge Health <br />Care facility, while to the east is Lake Owasso. The site is located in the Grass Lake <br />Watershed Management Area. <br /> <br />2.2 The site is zoned R-3A (Multi-Family Residence District); the Comprehensive Plan <br />designates this site as MDR, Medium Density Residential. <br /> <br />2.3 Electrical services to the assisted living project are essential to maintain the health and safety <br />of the residents. In the past year, during summer peak loads, Rosewood Estates electrical <br />services have been interrupted reducing the effectiveness or capacity of handling air <br />conditioning, refrigeration, resident systems, and access via elevators. <br /> <br />PF3106 - RCA (03/08/99) - Page 1 of 3 <br /> <br /><DR~ <br />0)1> <br />
