ROSEVILLE PLANNING COMMISSION Paget 5 Wednesday, August 3, 1988 Dahlgren summarized the location, surrounding uses, comprehensive plan designations and zoning. Dahlgren highlighted the proposal and what actions were being requested from the city. Johnson informed the commission and audience that two petitions have been received relating to this project, one in favor of the project and one in opposition to the project. Steve Wilson summarized the proposal and pointed out that it is consistent with land uses and zoning on/or adjacent to similar school sites in other areas of the community. Wilson summarized the recent plan changes which have been made to reduce the number of units in the apartment buildings and which increase the setback adjacent to the vietnamese church from 40 ft. to 60 ft. Wilson pointed out how the proposal responds to neighborhood concerns. Wilson outlined a market analysis which they have completed to show that the proposed single family homes would be consistent in v~lue with the surrounding area. Dave Koski presented the traffic study which concluded that there would be no deterioration in service levels due to this project. Koski added that signals are or will be warranted at the B-2 and Dale and Minnesota intersections. Wilson discussed a financial analysis which they have completed which showed that they're paying full market price, and the proposal would benefit the city because the increased taxes would pay for a recreation center and that there would be benefit to the school district because money they receive from the sale of Capitol View School can pay for necessary improvements and programs rather than having to increase taxes. Wilson concluded by stating that the development is well planned, would provide quality housing stock and variety for the community, that traffic can be handled effectively, and that there would be financial benefits to the city. Maschka asked for clarification on traffic levels and on the size of landscaping. Koski responded that there would be B - before and C - after. Wilson responded that they would be looking at 2~ inch caliper trees, generally throughout the project, but that the area between the apartments and the Vietnamese church they would be providing a series of 12 to 15 ft. high evergreens. Stokes inquired about the deviation would be in traffic levels which could be expected, and what trip generation rates. Koski responded that the trips predicted are generally within 10% of
