to rezone a at B allow redevelopment into a new branch bank. subject parcel has a Comprehensive Land Use Map designation of B (Business) and an existing zoning of B-1 (Limited Business District). 4.2 The REZONING request (from B-1 to B-2) would allow TCF to redevelop the 1.3 acre (56,200 sq. ft.) vacant parcel to a new TCF branch bank with a 4,500 sq. ft. office and 5 lane drive-thm. The redevelopment proposal does not require site plan approval from the Planning Commission or City Council. The submitted plans must be consistent with Sections 1005 (Business Districts) and 1010 (Design Standards) of the Roseville City Code. 4.3 The subject parcel is located directly east and across Pascal Street from the new Perkins restaurant (currently under constmction) and the new Super Target (also under construction), which property has a zoning of B-3, General Business District. North and east of the subject parcel are the Rose Mall Apartments and the Good Samaritan Care Facility, both with a zoning of B-1 , Limited Business District. Located directly south of the subject parcel and across County Road B are single family homes zoned R-1, Single Family Residential. 5.0 STAFF COMMENTS: 5.1 1445 County Road B was formerly occupied by Firstar Bank. However, a staff review of the City Code concluded that a bank or financial institution (including drive-thru) is not allowed in a B-1 zone. A further review of our historical files did not determine how or why a drive-thm bank/financial institution came to be at located 1445 County Road B. (The previous owner, Zimmerman Realty, also owns the adjacent Rose Mall apartments.) 5.2 TCF representatives met with the City Planner to discuss their intentions to redevelop the former Firstar site. It was at that meeting that it was determined that the former bank site improvement was non-conforming and not allowed under Section 1005.015 of the City Code. 5.3 TCF discussed the options concluding that the most appropriate zone for this parcel would be B-2, Retail Business. REVIEW of REZONING: 5.4 Plan Consistency. When reviewing applications to rezone land, the Community Development Staff first determines whether the anticipated use and subsequent zoning district designations are consistent with the Roseville Comprehensive Plan. The Staff has concluded that the proposed reuse of property for a bank is consistent with a land use map designation of Business (B) and that the proposed use is consistent with the former bank use on the site that had been in place for many years.
