3.10 Trash will either be kept inside the bingo hall area or a screened, roofed enclosure to be constructed. Section 10 10.11 D allows low volume generators (180 gallons or less and 2 recycling containers a week) to be located inside a principal building or behind a 100% opaque screened storage unit. Staff has indicated that the trash containers will need to be kept inside the bingo hall until the day of pick-up. Engelsma Limited Partnership is reviewing whether this option works. 3.11 The lighting plan proposes to replace all luminaries and some poles to conform to the City Code. Those poles within 100 and 300 feet of adjacent residential uses may need to be modified to meet the heightened 24-hour use requirements. 3.12 Screening will be required for the parking lot along Terrace Drive and for portions of the parking lot adjacent to Hamline A venue. Engelsma Limited Partnership has' provided the City with a preliminary concept landscape plan, which the staff and developer will refine prior to building permit issuance. 3.13 Traffic in the area of Hamline Center will increase with the addition of the bingo hall. However, this commercial strip center was designed to accommodate a modest volume of traffic and the roadways adjacent to it are more than adequate to handle the increase traffic. Ramsey County Traffic Engineer, Dan Soler, reports that Hamline Avenue has a current traffic count of 9,000 vehicles per day and a design capacity of approximately 16,000 vehicles per day. This proposed use would add approximately 500 to 600 vehicle trips per day on a peak bingo day; an increase of approximately 6% over the present use and well within the capacity of the road. 3.14 Hamline Center is a pre-existing commercial area that currently does not meet certain City Codes. However, only a few requirements are applicable to the interior renovation proposed for the bingo hall and affected by the added parking demand. They include the screening of roof top mechanical units (Section 1010.07); the provision of a roofed trash enclosure or storage of trash somewhere inside the bingo hall (Section 1010.11); parking lot lighting that meets the heightened SC district 24-hour use requirements (Section 1006.02J); and screening of off-street parking lot areas from adjacent residential uses (Section 1006.02A, F, and G). 3.15 Any proposed signage for the bingo hall must meet the requirements of Section 1009.03 of the Roseville City Code. 3.16 The project as proposed is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the City's Comprehensive Plan and Title 10 of the City Code (Zoning). 3.17 In summary the proposed project will not adversely affect the public health, safety, and/or general welfare.
