Commission Business: RD2008-001 Final Planned Residential Development (PRD) Allowing for Construction of a 6 -bed Christian Science Nursing Facility/Inspiration Center at 1190 Long Lake Road • The applicant is requesting consideration of a Final Planned Residential Development (PRD) that would allow for construction of a 6 -bed Christian Science Nursing Facility/Inspiration Center, which would also include two rest and study suites at 1190 Long Lake Road. This is the last stage of PRD approval with a building permit being the next step. Back in 2005 a similar project received Preliminary PRD approval, however this approval expired. Then in January of 2008 the applicant re-applied for preliminary PRD approval. The City Council granted conditional approval of a Preliminary PRD on February 26, 2008. The main differences between the 2005 and 2008 plans are that the structure has been reduced from a two-story building to a one-story building and the total square footage has been reduced from 12,522 SF to 10,290 SF. At the time of Preliminary PRD application the applicant also submitted for a Minor Subdivision. The Minor Subdivision allows the northern approximately 2 acres to be subdivided from the Christian Science Church property at 1190 Long Lake Road. This request has been recommended for approval by staff, the Planning Commission and City Council however a Resolution establishing new legal descriptions was delayed until Final PRD approval. The concern of staff was that a subdivision would be approved prior to the actual project being approved. At the time of Council consideration of a Resolution approving a Final PRD, a Resolution approving the Minor Subdivision will also be presented to the Council. The main concern with the subdivision request is that a Shared Parking & Access Easement is prepared • and recorded with Ramsey County. This easement agreement is provided as an attachment to the written staff report and the City Attorney has reviewed the agreement. Motion by O'Brien, second by O'Keefe to Recommend the City Council adopt the attached Resolution approving the Final Planned Residential Development, subject to the following conditions:
