�.C� REVIEW of PROJECT: �. ] The proj ect area consists of Leben's Greenhouse and the adj acent single family home and comprises approximately5-112 acres. The senior cooperativewill lie on Lot l, Greenhouse Village and comprise approximately 194,264 sq. ft or 4.45 acres, while the town homes will lie on Lot 2 Greenhouse Village and comprise approximately25,794 sq. ft. or .60 acres. �,� The project site is mostly surrounded by single family homes (south across Larpenteur Avenue in Saint Paul; north across Dionne Street; and east). To the west is the 127 unit, 4 story Roseville Senior Apartments. Further to the west is Lexington Plaza, Roseville Center, and other single user commercial business in Saint Paul. �.� Roseville's policy has been to use site-specific Planned Unit Development (PUD) zones and development contracts in redevelopment areas with mixes of uses. As proposed, Greenhouse Village and its mixed residential uses would be a PUD zone, specific to the 5-1/2 acre site. �.� In February 2004 the Planning Commission provided Greenhouse Village Properties comments and direction regarding a sketch plan proposal. Greenhouse Village Properties also held a neighborhood meeting regarding the proposed development. Comments from the Planning Commission, residents, and staff have been talcen into account in the submitted plans. �.� PROJECT SPECIFICS: PUBLIC INFRASTRUCI'URE: �, I The proposed senior cooperative and town home developments are required to connect to Roseville water for all water services. As well, this development will be required to loop the water main which will greatly improve the distribution system's reliability and fire flow to homes, the senior high rise, and Green House Village. The water main must be looped from the existing line east of Key's restaurant to the site, then through the east or west side of the project, connecting to the line along Dionne Street. Based on the City's current utility policy, the developer of Greenhouse Village will pay for the extension to serve his site. The cost for "over sizing" the pipe will be borne by the City. �.� Sanitary sewer lateral extensions to serve both the 105 unit cooperative and the 7 town home units have been designed to adequatelyserve these structures. Final plans must be reviewed and approved by the Public Worlcs Department. �,� Utilities, such as electricity, cable, telephone, and natural gas, will be designed and coordinated through the Public Worlcs Department to be underground, and utilize a j oint trenching system where applicable. Further, all transformers must be identified on a plan, prior to final approval, so that adjustments to proposed locations can be evaluated in order to eliminate possible unsightly locations. �.� After on-site pre-treatment of surface water has occurred, storm sewer connection to the existing City system within Dionne Street and Larpenteur will be allowed.
