PF15-019_RPCA_Plat_090215 <br />Page 3 of 7 <br />The proposed PRELIMINARY PLAT documentation is included with this report as Attachment C. 55 <br />Roseville’s Public Works Department staff has been working with the applicant to address the 56 <br />typical public needs related to overall site grading and attending to storm water management 57 <br />requirements. Regarding easements, no additional utility and drainage easements will be 58 <br />necessary on Lot 1 and 3, and the Public Works staff will not be requiring easements on the new 59 <br />Lot 2, given the uniqueness of the development. 60 <br />City Code specifies that an approved tree preservation plan is a necessary prerequisite for 61 <br />approval of a preliminary plat, however, the proposed new lot area of Rosedale Mall does not 62 <br />include any trees. Therefore, the Planning Division is waiving this requirement for the platting 63 <br />process. A tree preservation plan will be required as a component of the parking deck permit 64 <br />application coming forward for review and approval in the future. 65 <br />Given some recent building code issues on other developments, Roseville’s building official 66 <br />recommended that the project architect review the proposed lot and building placement with 67 <br />regard to Section 503, Area Limitations, and 705.8, Allowable Area or Openings, of the 2015 68 <br />Minnesota State Building Code to make sure the lot is appropriately sized and the design of 69 <br />structure meets all applicable requirements. Should it be determined that additional lot area is 70 <br />necessary, the lot could potentially increase from its current preliminary size. 71 <br />As of the printing of this report there has not been a determination reached regarding park 72 <br />dedication. It is assumed that a payment in lieu of land dedication will be required. 73 <br />Roseville’s Development Review Committee (DRC) met on August 13 and 20, 2015, to discuss 74 <br />this application. All of the feedback from members of the DRC is incorporated into the above 75 <br />comments pertaining to the zoning and subdivision codes and engineering requirements. 76 <br />PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD) AMENDMENT ANALYSIS 77 <br />PUD #3608 was approved by the City Council in 2005 to allow a 132,679 sq. ft. 2-story easterly 78 <br />expansion of the Mall. The expansion was added to the east end of the former Mervyn’s store 79 <br />and included 63,679 sq. ft. of shops and restaurants as well as a 69,000 sq. ft., 14-screen theater. 80 <br /> The project also included the remodeling of the former Mervyn’s structure into additional shops, 81 <br />revised on-site parking, and revamped the main drive lane (ingress/egress) from County Road 82 <br />B2. 83 <br />The 2015 amendment proposal includes the construction of a 450-space parking deck that 84 <br />crosses property lines, a new 141,000 sq. ft. retail building, up to 5 commercial pads for future 85 <br />7,000 to 8,000 sq. ft. commercial buildings, associated parking lot revisions/enhancements, and 86 <br />revised storm water management for the project. 87 <br />LEGAL DESCRIPTION ANALYSIS 88 <br />The Plaza, the common name of the 2005 lifestyle center development, consisted of three 89 <br />specific lots owned by JLL, described below: 90 <br />Lot 4, Block 1, Rosedale Center Fourth Addition 91 <br />(Torrens Property – Certificate of Title No. 375111) 92 <br />Lot 3, Block 1, Rosedale Center Fourth Addition, except that part of overlying Lots 6 and 93 <br />Lot 7, Block 5, Leinen Heights Number 2 94 <br />(Torrens Property – Certificate of Title No. 375111) 95
