---EXCERPT --- JUNE, 2002 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES f. Planning File 3359: Request by the Citv of Roseville to rezone the Twin Lakes Business Park from R-1, Single Family Residential, El, Limited Business District, B-4, Retail Office Service District, I-1 Light Industrial, and I-2, General Industrial to B-6, Business Park Chairman Duncan opened the hearing and requested Community Development Director Dennis `��elsch provide a summary of the project report dated June 5, 2002. The City of Roseville is proposing a rezoning within the Twin Lakes Master Plan area from the e�sting mix of Industrial (I-1, I-2), Business (B-4, B-1) and Residential (R-1) land use zones to Nlixed Use Business Park (B-6). The rezoning would provide land use consistency within the Business Park. It will also provide consistency between the Comprehensive Land Use Plan "MiYed Use Business Park" and the City Zoning Code `B-6" zoning district. The Twin Lakes Master Plan area is generally bounded by County Road C2 on the North; Cleveland Avenue on the West; County Road C on the South; and just west of Snelling on the East. (Refer to site map attached and legal description ofparcel affected). The current proposal, to rezone the Twin Lakes Master Plan Area to `B-6", assures that future land uses are compatible with the Comprehensive Plan Mixed Use Business Park designation. The Twin Lakes Master Plan is consistent with commercial industrial goals and policies of the City of Roseville as described in Section 3 of the Comprehensive Plan (as revised in January, 2001). The Twin Lakes Plan includes the following: a. Create a buffer to protect and enhance the public enjoyment of Langton Lake. b. Protect the residential neighborhoods with less intrusive land uses. c. Create a livable environment with a mix of compatible uses. g Create compatibility between uses and building designs in order to encourage new investment, protect and enhance e�sting value. Minimize the impact of commercial traffic onto residential streets; reduce congestion at main intersections; clean up soil and groundwater pollution. Clean up soil and groundwater pollution. g. Provide a range of quality jobs. h. Diversify the tax base. i. Provide a flexible land use plan. j. Locate uses in areas where they can best take advantage of necessary market forces. Merle Goodmanson, 2630 Fairview Avenue, stated that the plan would be good for Roseville businesses. How much more traffic will this create? Will mass transit be placed on the railroad line? There are eleven houses in the area. Dennis Welsch explained the environmental and transit plan. Bruce Carlson, Northco Real Estate Services, expressed concerns with flexibili for continued uses and e�sting tenants; and is supportive of plan and vision and may be interested in future development of the area. Within Twin Lakes Northco owns 440,000 s.f., 32% of tenants are conforming. The remodeling of buildings for tenants may be difficult. Office developers may not PF3359-RCA(102102) Page 7 of 13
