existing natural features; the efficiency, adequacy and safety of the proposed layout of internal drive lanes and driveways; the adequacy and location of landscaping and green areas; the adequacy location and screening of parking areas; and such other matters as the City may find to have a material bearing on the stated standards and objectives of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan. 1.5 Based on the applicant's occupancy deadlines for school and other operations, as well as the construction schedule for completion in mid summer, 2000, the applicant has requested an expedited schedule with tentative hearing and action schedule for this project is as follows: 04/12/00 04/24/00 Planning Commission hearing and action on CONCEPT plan. City Council action on CONCEPT and FINAL plan; first and second reading of Ordinance; or continue to next available date Optional continuation - City Council hearing and action on FINAL development plan, FINAL PUD Agreement, and second (final) reading of Ordinance. 05/08/00 2.0 PROJECT BACKGROUND 2.1 The 74,220 s.f. Hamline Center is considered a pre-existing, non-conforming shopping center, built in the early 1960's. The Hamline Center site encompasses one parcel of 6.3 acres in size. The parcel is "L" shaped, with roughly 313 feet of frontage on Hamline Avenue, 623 feet of frontage on Terrace Drive, and 292 feet of frontage on Centennial Drive. Adjacent to the Hamline Center, to the northeast is the 2 story 24,000 s.f. Ham:ine Office Complex built in 1960. It is not part of this proposal and will remain as is, sharing its 114 parking places with the Hamline Center. The office building is located on an additional 2 acres. The existing Hamline Center building is generally located in the southwest comer of the site with parking located to the east (approximately 183 spaces) and along the south frontage adjacent to Terrace Drive (approximately 40 spaces west). No ponding for storm water management is located on the site and no ponding is proposed becau,se the site will not increase impervious surfaces. In fact, the proposed development plan could have less impervious surface than the existing site development, with the addition of new landscaping, planting islands, and play areas. 2.: The Roseville Zoning Code does not distinguish between retail shopping and office uses for parking purposes. The Code requires five (5) off-street parking spaces per 1,000 s.f. of leasable retail space or office space. For schools, the code requires 1.25 spaces per classroom and for general assembly/meeting spaces such as the charitable gambling- bingo operation the Code requires 1 space per each 3 seats. The Code also allows for shared/joint parking. The proposal indicates 223 off-street parking spaces for the 66,337 s.f. of gross leasable area, of which 13% or 8,632 s.f. is now occupied by a church (1 space for each 3.3 seats) with evening and weekend uses. The City, in the past, has recognized the unique parking requirements of a mixed-use center project (Section 1005.01E) and has written the PUD to account for these unique conditions, setting PF3199 - RPCA (04/12/00) - Page 2 of5
