Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 Motion carried. Member Cunningham asked for more details on why the proposal is the "one best" design. Explore expansion in other configurations and feasibilities. More details are needed regarding future phases. Member Egli expressed concern regarding noise and neighborhood issues and design flexibility to redirect the noise away from neighbor or better noise mitigation. She favored continuing the issue and looking for another design. Chair Klausing liked the reduced grades, turning the structure, using earth for berms. Member Wilke asked Midland Hills to meet with neighbors and complete their plans. Member Rhody noted the design ignores the neighborhood. They must meet with neighbors to understand concerns. 6d. Planning File 3172. A request by the City of Roseville to consider a Comprehensive Plan Amendment from Business and High Density to Park and a rezoning from R-3A, B-1 and R-1 (Single Family Residential), property generally located at the southwest corner of Lexington Avenue and County Road B (currently known as Lexington Park). Chair Klausing opened the hearing and requested the City Planner, Thomas Paschke, to provide a verbal summary of the staff report dated January 12, 2000. He described the changes proposed in the Comprehensive Plan and the Zoning designations for the site. The purpose is to expand the area of Lexington Park to an 8-acre neighborhood and community park. Bob Bierscheid, Roseville Parks and Recreation Director, explained the history of the Park. He noted that in December 1999 the City Council declared its intention to make the site one,park, to amend the park system plan and to amend the Comprehensive Plan and zoning maps. The Park and Recreation Commission, in January 2000, recommended that the Park System Plan be modified to include the entire site as a "community" park, which is a "neighborhood" park, but larger and with more specialized activities or amenities. Because of its location, it will be a focal point for the community. He described the park sites within Planning District 13, which are small and are better balanced with this 8-acre site. This park will also be an accessible community pathway hub along Lexington and County Road B. Mr. Bierscheid described the park design proposal process. Chair Klausing asked what the "charge" to the Planning Commission was (change site to all park zoning). Chair Klausing asked why the site should be eight acres instead of six acres. Mr. Bierscheid explained the need for eight acres to create a community park. Chair Klausing asked if there was a need for a community park in the area. Bob Bierscheid explained the Park and Recreation Commission reasoning for a community park at this site. http://www.ci.roseville.mn.us/council/planning/minutes/pmOOOI12.htm 11/03/2000
