2.0 PROJECT BACKGROUND 2.1 Mendota Homes has a purchase agreement for the vacant (former parking lot) parcel located north of the Executive Manor Condos, 3155 Old Highway 8. The site is relatively flat, gradually sloping from the southwest to the northeast. There are no structures on the current parcel; the entire site is pavement. 2.2 The portion of the lot that lies in Roseville is 125 feet in width by 330.4 feet in depth or 41,300 square feet. The parcel is a small but a workable redevelopment site for a town house development. The site was identified as Phase 2 of the original Mendota Homes PUD which included Phase 1, a 30 unit senior housing complex northeast of the Phase 2 proposal. 2.3 The proposed architecture will be single level structures with walkout or lookout basements and a height from the main floor of 20 feet. The exterior will be maintenance free siding, fascia, and soffit and asphalt shingles. Gutters and downspouts will direct the rainwater and snow melt away from the site. Decks and/or patios are proposed with each structure. The front of the town home and the garage access will face south to\vard the Executive Manor Condo's. The estimated value of the finished project is $1,5 to $1.8 million. 2.4 Mendota Homes submitted the required concept development plans, including site, drainage, landscape, and building elevations. Because the site is reducing the existing impervious site area ponding is not required. However, storm water will drain to the adjacent parcel, northeast of the proposal. The drainage pond on the previously approved three story, 30 unit condominium building has ponding capacity for Phase 2. Greater detail will be required as part of the final approvals. 2.5 Section 1008 of the City Code outlines the requirements and procedures for a planned unit development. 3.0 ST AFF REVIEW & CONDITIONS 3.1 The City's Comprehensive Plan map designates this area for High Density Residential. The zoning of the site is Limited Business District "B-1". The zoning would be revised to PUD with an underlying zone of R-6, Townhouse District. High density allows residential developments from 10 to 36 units per acre. Highway 88 and the previously approved PUD lies to the northeast; the Executive Manor Condos, zoned Limited Business (B-1) lies to the south (residential uses are permitted in a B-1 zone); two single family residential homes, zoned Single Family (R-l) to the north; and town homes within the City of St. Anthony are located to the west.
