well as offices for a Realty Company. The building would be <br />FABCON construction (full height precast contract panels with <br />raked surface). We reviewed setback requirements, landscaping, <br />curbing, and procedures. A special use permit would be required <br />for the truck rental, a SUP for a planned, unit development (if <br />there are two buildings on the site) and a variance to parking <br />setback if it is established 20 ft. rather than the 40 ft. <br />required in the front of the building. We emphasized the City's <br />desire for a quality construction project. <br />3. Nikolai (379-5367) <br />Erick Nikolai runs a company called Social Service Network which <br />is an employment agency for persons working in the health care <br />(particularly the elderly) field. He desires to establish a <br />group home in Roseville for 6 to 8 seniors, providing care, less <br />intensive than normally found in a nursing home. He is working <br />closely with the State Department of Health people regarding the <br />regulations and procedures. Rick Jopke and we informed him that <br />operating such a home is allowed as a "group home" in Minnesota <br />Communities including Roseville, and that no special permit would <br />be required, other than conformance to the state laws applicable. <br />He noted some interesting figures that by the year 2000, 2/3 of <br />our population in this country will be over 55 and the number of <br />persons over 55 is increasing each year by 12-14%. <br />4.

This is the north end of the old Glendenning site <br />where a firm was constructed as part of a shoreline permit for <br />the parking of trucks on the west end of the site. This. permit <br />was approved in 1979. <br />We later checked with David Carischt, landscape architects office <br />who did the design. The berm and planting are still in place and <br />we suggest that they revise their site plans as to retain the <br />berm and seek a new shoreline zoning permit for parking behind <br />the berm as was previously established for truck parking. <br />They agreed to revise the plan, which would later present it to <br />the City staff indicating approximately a 22,000 sq. ft. building <br />with 3 floors and the required 110 parking spaces. <br />Reviewing, the drainage proposal, it was noted that the required <br />ponding was being squeezed in at three different parts of the <br />site and the shopping center site to the south. It was suggested <br />that a common pond be developed on the westerly portion of the <br />Edina Realty site, and that this land be sold to the City and be <br />added to the park as is currently proposed in the comprehensive <br />
