<br />finn danieIs <br /> <br />-}..~;~~;.r-r--~~~~~ <br /> <br />September 3, 2003 <br /> <br />2145 Ford Parkway, Suite 201 <br />Saint Paul, Minnesota 55116 <br />Phone 651.690.5525 <br />Fax 651.690.5545 <br />www.finn-daniels.com <br /> <br />Thomas Paschke <br />City Planner <br />City of Roseville <br />2660 Civic Center Drive <br />Roseville, MN 55113 <br /> <br />Re: Wally McCarthy's Hummer <br />2325 Prior Ave. North <br />Roseville, MN 55113 <br /> <br />Wally McCarthy's Auto Group is proposing to build a new addition to its existing Cadillac- <br />Hummer dealership located at 2325 Prior Avenue. The new facility will allow for separate <br />showroom floors for the Cadillac and Hummer dealerships in order to comply with national <br />corporate requirements for the business identities, along with additional service requirements of <br />the Hummer vehicle line. <br />The construction would consist of the demolition of the existing approximately 9,940 s.f. <br />canopy and outdoor sales area to the west of the existing showroom. There would be a new <br />10,043 s.f. Hummer showroom and sales offices built in place of the existing canopy and a 4,800 <br />s.f. service garage addition located on the north side of the existing building, along with a <br />Hummer "Test Track" to be constructed at the north edge of the existing vehicle storage area. <br />The showroom addition will be modeled after the national Hummer Image. This Image <br />along the main (South) fa9ade will consist of a glass and steel structure with an arched metal roof <br />as shown in the attached drawings. The square footage and footprint of the new showroom has <br />been sized and located to have minimum site impact, as it uses almost the same footprint of the <br />existing canopy area. This allows the site to maintain it's current parking, landscaping and hard <br />surface features with minimal remodeling and site design. <br />The service addition would be comprised of rock face concrete masonry units painted to <br />match the existing building. It will consist of approximately 8 service bays that will be better <br />equipped to handle the service requirements of the Hummer vehicles. Attaching this addition to <br />the rear of the building will allow the servicing of all vehicles to continue in the same area of the <br />site as the present. <br />The Hummer Test Track will give the opportunity to demonstrate the abilities of the <br />vehicle to potential buyers. It will allow expanded use of the site while having little impact to the <br />impervious area. Refer to attached example photos of an existing test track. <br />Wally McCarthy's Auto Group is also proposing future improvements to the existing <br />Cadillac portion of the building in order to tie the building into the look and feel of the new addition <br />and bring it into compliance with the city code. The improvements would be the removal of the <br />existing deteriorating wood shake shingles and refinishing the mansard roof with a standing seam <br />metal roof system to allow for a cleaner, more maintenance free finish. In addition to the roof <br />treatments would be the painting of the existing exterior metal wall panels. <br />Please refer to the attached drawings and renderings for the project, and feel free to <br />contact me with any further questions or comments regarding this matter. <br /> <br />
