~I I I Council Proceedings - December 22, 1998 Page 8 Council Business. continued Current PUD regulations state there shall be a minimum setback of the height of the building, or 30 ft. whichever is greater, from all property lines which form the perimeter of the PUD. The amendment allows flexibility for any new PUD, subject to Council approval under the conditions that pedestrian linkages to neighboring developments is provided along with an approved streetscape plan. These minor amendments allow structures to be located closer to the perimeters of a new PRD or PUD. This is consistent with development envisioned in the Hwy 8 Plan, Downtown New Brighton, and the MX District. If a structure within a proposed PUD or PRD is within the required 25-30 ft. setback area, then pedestrian access to the entire development, and streetscape enhancements including tree planting, landscaping and lighting would need to be provided, otherwise a 25-30 ft. setback would be required. Motion by Gunderman, seconded by Hoffman, to APPROVE THE ORDINANCE AMENDMENT TO CHAPTER VII OF THE CITY'S ZONING ORDINANCE TO ALLOW FLEXIBILITY IN THE PERIMETER SETBACK REQUIREMENT FOR ANY NEW PUD OR PRD UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS. 5 Ayes - 0 Nayes, Motion Carried. Teague presented the PUD for Outlot A of Brighton Corporate Park III located north of Co. Rd. E-2 Ext., west of 5th Ave., and south of 6th St. The project includes a mixture of commercial, office and retail uses. The design has been planned to allow integration with the future residential development to be located directly north. The residential project would be upper end market rate apartments, and condominiums and senior housing may be considered. The residential project will require separate PUD approval at a future date. Only the commercial/office project is under consideration at this time. The proposal involves 80,850 sq. ft of commercial/office development and 32,000 sq. ft of underground parking. The following uses are proposed: convenience store with gas sales and car wash - 4,000 sq. ft., restaurant - 3,000 sq. ft., restaurant - 1,500 sq. ft., Post Office - 4,000 sq. ft., bank, child care facility, office, and retail. Pedestrian linkages and a streetscape plan are included in the proposal. The landscaping is being performed by Damon Faber who is also doing the Old Hwy 8 Corridor streetscape. Parking requirements have been satisfied. The development would qualify as a joint-use facility in which total number of parking spaces could be less than the total required. However, this is not proposed at this time. The Fire Marshal recommends hydrants be placed near the midpoint of the Co. Rd. E-2 Extension and the future 6th St. Extension. The convenience store canopy will be blocked from view of the residential property, and lighting will be recessed so not to be visible to adjacent properties. To prevent the car wash noise, the exit door must be closed during operation, and may not be opened until all machines are turned off. At this time, no signage has been proposed. All signage must meet the provisions of the sign ordinance. Under the plan for Outlot A, a retaining wall will be installed on the property held by the City. The wall will not be constructed until Building C is ready to be built. Potentially, the wall will not be needed depending upon the timing of the residential project. Grading plans shall be subject to review and approval of the City Engineer, and the Rice Creek Watershed District. Council Business Perimeter setbacks for PUD and PRD Report 98-244 Ordinance 650 ;.
