The boundaries of Centre Pointe are I-3SW to the west, Cleveland Avenue to the east, County Road D to the north and DNR Wetland SOW and County Road C to the south. Adjacent lands are currently developed or not developable (i.e.: roads, wetlands). There are no adjacent outlots platted. No future development is anticipated on adjacent lands. Centre Pointe Business Park fronts I-3SW through Roseville, a mature first-ring suburb. A service station, trucking operation and residences had previously used the site until it was cleared in the mid-1980s for the Centre Pointe project. Current adjacent land uses include roadways, a stormwater pond, and office buildings constructed as part of the original Centre Pointe development. Trucking operations and residences can be found immediately beyond Centre Pointe, Centre Pointe Solutions proposes completing the redevelopment of a partially completed business park. Once complete, the cumulative environmental impact of Centre Pointe to other past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future projects is expected to be minimal. Compared with the site's historic uses (i.e.: trucking operation and a service station), the completed Centre Pointe redevelopment would be considered an environmental benefit. The areas immediately adjacent to Centre Pointe are currently fully developed and the completion of Centre Pointe, thus, is not expected to cause any reasonably foreseeable future development in the area, 30. Other potential environmental impacts. If the project may cause any adverse environmental impacts not addressed by items 1 to 28, identify and discuss them here, along with any proposed mitigation. All known and anticipated environmental impacts were previously addressed in questions 1 through 29. 31. Summary of issues. Do not complete this section if the EA W is being done for EIS scoping; instead, address relevant issues in the draft Scoping Decision document, which must accompany the EA W. List any impacts and issues identified above that may require further investigation before the project is begun. Discuss any alternatives or mitigative measures that have been or may be considered for these impacts and issues, including those that have been or may be ordered as permit conditions. 1. Traffic - The overall conclusion of the traffic analysis report is that the current proposed Centre Pointe development would not cause any significant negative traffic impacts at the any of the 10 intersections that have been examined. The traffic impacts associated with the current Centre Pointe development proposal are nearly identical to the impacts that would have been experienced with the Centre Pointe development proposals approved in April of2001, February of2000 and in the spring of 1997. 2. Air Quality - CO levels predicted at each receptor by modeling traffic levels at County Road C are very low. This is because, although it is the busiest intersection by traffic count, the intersection of Cleveland and County Road C is relatively far from the receptor locations established, The CO standards are not projected to be exceeded at any of the receptor locations assuming the project is developed as envisioned, and using the information and methods outlined in the EA W. It is not anticipated that traffic improvements or other mitigation measures will be required to address air quality issues associated with the proposed project.
