� � � o �� �� � �� ��• ONE SUNWOOD DRIVE • BOX 399 • ST. CLOUD, MINNESOTA 56302 • TEL. 61�1252-6262 CONCORDIA AGAD�IY HOUSING PROPOSAL Brutger Companies, Inc. is proposing to develop 237 units of housing at 2400 North Dale Street, which is currently being used. by Concordia Academy, a L�utheran Parochial High School. The housing development will be bus.lt on 1$ of the 28 acres, leaving approximately 10 acres (including the school building) on the westerly portion of the site, for use by Roseville's Parks and Recreation Departmsnt. The adjacent parcels of land were exatinined to determine the best �ype of housing for various portions of the Concordia Aca�emy site. East of the north half of the east propErty line are existing single family homes. To be consist�nt with t�� existing �.and us�, we have proposed seven single family 1ots, appraximately 95' x 120', which back up to thes� hames. To the south ot th�� single family homes is the Phat—An Temple, a Vie�nam�se Buddhist Church. i�e have become ke�nly a��are of the Vietnames�' desir�e to maintain adequate space between thei.r temple and the new construc�ion. This desi.re has been addressed by propusing to build a 6' high landscaped berm nex� to their west proper�y ].ine and placing the building which is clos�;st to the church, 130' away. ihis building is a two story, 10 unit cluster home. A larger three story building is 300' from the temple. The �outhwest co�ner of the site con�ains two �5 unit, three story buil�ings. The l�lacement of these buildings adjacent to State Ha.ghway 36 pro�ides a sound ba�rier for properties to the north and east. Their location on t►zat portion of the site i.mpacts adjacent properties minianaliy. The surface parking for the three story complex is found in the interior court o� the buildings reducing the imp�ac� which parlced cars and parking lot have on areas outside the development. The n�rth portion of the site, west of �he single family lots contains f��ur 10 unit cluster hameso This m�di.um density, two �tory development provxdF;s a transition between the sin�le family lors to tne east and the busier pu�lic facility to the west. The building exterior: will be a combin�ition of brick and cedar. The C��,aree s�ory buildings will �e primarily brick except for the deck areas and w.ing, walls where a cedar accent will be use�;:i„ The cluster homes will use a bri�:.'� wainscoting trith cedar siding.
