2.2 Representatives from Lake Ridge have met with planning and engineering staff to discuss <br />the proposal for a parking lot expansion on the north side of the Lake Ridge property which <br />will add approximately 60 spaces. A City Council excavation permit hearing and action (as <br />per Section 705) is required because the property is located in a commercial developed area <br />(B 1 Limited Business District) and more than 10,000 cubic yards of material is proposed to <br />be removed from the site. <br />2.3 In the past (and again on May 17) the applicaat and the staff, as well as the neighbors have <br />discussed alternatives such as: 1) pl..cing street parking back on Woodhill Drive (adds 7 to <br />10 spaces); 2) placing parking along the east tace of the building, adjacent to Victoria (adds <br />25 to 30 spaces but puts parking adjacent to resident rooms and requires a State waiver); 3) <br />constructing a parking ramp — considered too expensive; 4) sharing parking with adjoining <br />institutional uses. (MediaOne site no longer as excess space; nor does Rosewood complex.) <br />2.4 A building permit application for the parking Jot expansion and other site improvements was <br />submitted on May 9, 2000. The applicant provided information including a landscaping <br />plan, a lighting plan, storm water runoff calculations, and an explanation of how the slope <br />would be vegetated. Surface water will be retained on site, on the surface of the new parking <br />lot which will be slightly lower (1 foot) than the existing lot. <br />In the past, residents were concerned about the removal of trees on the Lake Ridge property, <br />which provides a visual and sound barrier between their properties and the nursing home. <br />They also expressed conce.ns with the proposed slope between the property line and the <br />parking area (2H: 1 V). Such a steep slope is only advisable if it has a soil erosion plan and is <br />planted with naturalized plant material which does not need mowing. <br />2.5 The proposed grading plan and landscaping plan were reviewed by the City Engineering staff <br />and have previously been reviewed by the Ramsey County Soil and Water Conservation <br />District. Grass Lake Water Management Organization must also review and approve of the <br />plans. A Landscape Architect has been hired by Lake Ridge to complete a naturalized <br />landscape and to review the methods (including retaining walls) for protection of large trees <br />that may be saved. <br />2.6 Section 705.O1B(6) of the City Code states that a permit for excavation and grading is <br />required from the City Council for any filling or excavating on developed <br />commerciaUindustrial property where t�ie site is greater than 2.5 acres and the proposed <br />fill/excavation exceeds 5,000 cubic yards. The Lake Ridge parcel is 5.6 acres in size and the <br />proposed excavation is estimated at over 13.000 cubic yards. Section 705.03 states, "all <br />permits required to be issued by the City Council will be issued only after the appropriate <br />notices have been sent to the adjacent property owners whose land might be affected by the <br />excavating, grading, surfacing or fillit �, and a hearing held. The City Manager or designee <br />will determine who the affected adjacent landowners are." <br />2.7 Section 1005.011 of the City Code states, "Where a business district abuts a residence <br />district, any new development shall include a buffer zone. There shall be a protective strip of <br />Lake Ridge PF3221 — RCA(061200) - Page 2 of 3 <br />
