-2- The Roseville Comprehensive Land Use Plan has been amended to designate the eastern portion of the property at 500 West County Road B, Roseville, as high density residential and the westerly portion as park land. The entire parcel, however, is under private ownership with both portions contributing to density allowances outlined below. We request rezoning from Rl to RM to permit the construction of up to 130 units of elderly housing in a single building. This is a reduction from the 156 proposed intitally and was determined based on R3A permited density. Parking would be built below residential units which would relate to the surface parking, entrance and principal common spaces. The residential unit levels would begin above the parking and relate to existing grade along the easterly property line and the elevation of County Road B. Common space for dining and group activities would be provided at the center of the L shaped plan and orientate to the west. The building is envisioned to have two heights. This is a change from the earlier submission of six stories with . roof dormer units and is in response to some of the concerns raised'in the ear.11er public hearings on this subject. The entire north -south portion of the building along the easterly property line will now be three stories with some "dormer units" built into roof structure above. The east -west wing which is set into the three story portion and extending west will be reduced to five stories of residential units with "dormer units" set back into the roof structure as well.. This revision substantially increases the sideyard set back of the higher wing from the east property line which is parallel to Cohansey Boulevard. The higher wing now extends west to the drainage ditch and will receive approximately 100' of special foundations to accomodate the soft soils. This extension will bring the corridor lengths to practical limits for elderly housing and be approximately equal distance north and west from the elevators. Eighty-two (82) enclosed parking spaces will be provided on the lower level with the capability to provide up to an additional fourty-eight (48) on surface should the need be justified. This would account for up to a 1:1 parking ratio or as may be deemed appropriate to this building type when documented by survey of similar projects. The average unit size is 800 sq. ft. The net square footage of the building including common space is 118,000 sq. ft. The gross area with circulation is 139,500 sq. ft., not including parking. A variance is requested to 1) permit a one bedroom unit smaller than 700 sq. ft., 2) height variance for a building as discussed above which incorporates a parking level and dormer units in the gable roof and 3) a rearyard set back along the south properly line of 30' in lieu of 37' at the 3 1/2 story and 44' in lieu of 51 at the 5 1/2 story wing. No variances are requested for density, parking, sideyard or frontyard requirements. Special landscape provisions will be provided along the easterly property where it adjoins the R1 district. Additional drawings and documentation will be provided prior to public hearing to clarify and articulate the design elements further.
