. .' , - - 12. WAT WILL BE THE EFFECT OF THE PROPOSED LA.~D USE ON THE REALni, SAFEty J AND WELFARE OF THE OCCUPANTS OF SURROUNDING LANDS? The subject property is bounded for all intents and purposes on all sides for uses other than single family residential. The development of this piece of property will enhance the adjacent land uses and should act as a catalyst in the development of the remaining vacant comcercial and business zoned property. In the development of our site, we have located ~arking areas adjacent to the school parking area to the cast and the church's parking lot to the north, and screened our site from the commercial property to the south and west with additional parking (both with garages and open spaces). Our townho~se residential unit9 that are adjacent to the east property line face the grass playground of the school occupying that property. We have located the seven-story elderly uUilding adjacent to Snelling Avenue on which commercial/business prorerty front both to the north and south of our site. 13. WAT WILL BE THE EFFECT O~ E~USTING AND ANTICIPATED TRAFFIC CONDITIONS, INCLUDING PARKING FACILITIES (IN ADJACENT STREETS? The proposed developcent of the subject property is such that any traffic generated from within will all be directed to Snelling Avenue, where access to the property presently exists in the form of a crossing of the median on Snelling Avenue. No access or egress is planned along the north. east or south property line. All parking for the developll'll.'o.t will be on the site with no on-street parking available to the residents. 14. WHAT WILL BE THE EFFECT ON PROPERTY VALUE IN TilE SURROUNDING AREA? The Im=e~tate land uses In the area are predo=inantly business or com=ercial uses. The remafning property is presently vacant and zoned for business or commercial uses. A develop=ent of this size and scope can ~nly enhance the values of the pre~ently vacant land and should create a higher value for the existing business and commercial uses. It will not affect the publiC u~es (I.e.. church and school) located to the north nnd ~ast respectively. Sinc~ it is somewhat removed from the single facily land uses, it will not affect the property values In those areas other than to increase the value of the single family.
