Hike Brennan <br />Ryan Construction. of Minnesota, <br />900 2nd Avenue South, '700 <br />Minneapolis, HN 554QZ <br />SUBJECT: INFORMAL REVIEW OF PLANS TO REVISE FOOTPRINT AND CERTAIN OTHER <br />FEATURES OF THE -ROCKFORD RCAD PLAZA- (9005~(MPUD 89-2M) <br />Dear Hr. Brennan: <br /> <br />This will ackncwledge your meeting with the Development Review Committee on <br />Tuesday, Janua~ 8th, 1991 to discuss your informal proposal to increase the <br />total footprint of the subject shopping center 4400 square feet; reduce the <br />outdoor display area 7000 square feet; and modify the development plan in <br />several other areas. Based on the review of your informal plans the <br />Development Review Committee offers the following comments: <br /> <br />1. The basic conceyt of increasing the footprint by 4400 square feet <br />resulting in a oss of 7000 square feet of outside display area and 15 <br />off-street parking spaces could be consid~red a -minor PUD amendmpntN and <br />therefore subject to administrative approval. <br /> <br />2. The proposal to eliminate one of the screen walls covering truck delivery <br />areas on the east side of the building would require a formal PUD plan <br />amend~nt. A specific concern of the Planning Commis5ion and City Council <br />in their review of this, plan wa~' the potenthl appelirtlnCe of the east <br />elevation of the building to the residential neighborhoods located east of <br />the site. Any modffication to ~hat elevation would t'te significant and <br />requ ire a f onna 1 plan at~ndmen t . <br /> <br />3. The trash enclosure which has been added to the t:ast side of the building <br />must have ~ door structwre with a specification CO~I!,;stent with the zoning <br />ordinance. (2 inch thfc~ material minimum). <br /> <br />4. Your plans show the elimination of the shopping cart storage area which <br />was In a landscaped area I)n the soutt! side of the Rainbow foods st.ructure. <br />The elimination of this C;jrt storagf'i lirea has not been approved. You <br />indicated thaf the cart s~orage area inside oflU1e Rai~bow foods has been <br />increased in size to correspond with the elimination of the outdoor cart <br />storage area. Please provide speciftc evidence of this s~bstftution. At <br />such time as we have been .)bJe to review this proposal He wiJ 1 advise you <br />as to whether a fonaa 1 PUD p J an amendment wi 11 be requ i ,oed or whether an <br />administration approval wiil be possible. <br /> <br />5. Sheet A-8 of the Informal pJilns you submitted depicts \>'at1 ~ignage that <br />appears to be 15-17\ of the wall area to which it is attached. Your <br />approved PUD plan calls for a ~~xim~. of 10\ wall signagp. and no plans m~y <br />be approved for siCJn instal1atlonthat would exceed this 10% maximum <br />without an onendment to the PUO plan. <br /> <br />'I.~(':.t~! ,".' .~;'t""(-I;t'l \/^:;:", 1~'Vt.'<lrftlf "!"!".,r',~r'<"'!". r, t~. ... f f.,;,....; <br />
