Comprehensive Plan. The Church needs to remain and grow. The City of Roseville could 1 joint venture with the Church and the Park Foundation. 2 3 LouiseDiesler, Prince of Peace member, supported the senior project and the need for 4 housing. The park belongs to all, including seniors. 5 6 DonZabell stated he supported the senior project, not to preclude who uses the park. 7 Senior housing adjacent to the church serves senior needs. 8 9 Letters received in support and opposition were acknowledged and placed on file 10 (attached). 11 12 ChairRhody closed the hearing. 13 14 Five minute break. 15 16 Chair John Rhody summarized the project and the concerns and comments presented. 17 18 MemberKlausing noted that the project had a number of important features: does it meet a 19 need of the community for senior affordable housing; does it fulfill a mission of the 20 Church; how does it physically or visually impact the park; is there a financial impact; 21 what rights does the Church have as the land owner; where were the drawings illustrating 22 the view from the park; senior housing near the park may be a community asset. He said 23 he was not prepared to say yes/no at this time. 24 25 MemberMulder asked if the Planning Commission could request the Council to send back 26 the final plan for review and comment by the Commission. Is the concept good or bad to 27 change the Comprehensive Plan; what are the details of the project that the Commission 28 should be concerned with? 29 30 Member Cunningham asked if this should be reviewed as spot rezoning. He asked if the 31 City had a map with R-1 property adjacent to other amenities in the community. What is 32 the precedent? Other areas should be reviewed. 33 34 MemberWilke said he supported a senior building concept adjacent to the church and 35 park. He reviewed the Park Commission remarks. He evaluated Rosewood Estates. Sight 36 lines (from the developer) would be beneficial. Could the church and park work out 37 shared parking arrangements? He also cited Eagle Crest as a good project. 38 39 MemberMulder noted that he has worked on the Metro Council Blue Print and the 40 Citizen’s League changes in aging and seniors. The population change and need for life 41 cycle housing has added more steps/choices in the housing. What is the vision and 42 mission of the community?Seniors are a community asset. This debate should move 43 forward. 44 45 Motion #1 : Member Mulder moved, seconded by Member Wilke, to recommend approval 46 of the request for an amendment to the City’s Comprehensive Plan to change the future 47 land use designation of both parcels to High Density Residential and approval of the 48 concept development plan for a mixed use planned unit development including the existing 49 Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, a 56-unit three-story senior housing building, and an off- 50 street parking area, based on the findings outlined in Section 3.1, and 51 52 further, recommend that after Council action, if it is approved, the Final Plan be referred 53 back to the Planning Commission, at which time Prince of Peace will provide site lines and 54 final plat details.
