MINUTES PLANNING COTdMISSION APRIL 12, 1982 PAGE 2 • • The next order of business was a request from Gary Ostergren, Falcon GARY OSTERGRE] Heights Service Center, 1525 'Ju'est Larnenteur, to install a portable FALCON paint booth in the north stall of the station. P~dr. Ostergren was not HEIGHTS in attendance. Sandy Larson pointed out that she had discussed the SERVICE matter with Jerry Renchin, the Fire Chief, and he gave her a document CENTER containing all the safety criteria that must be met for installation of paint equipment. Chief Renchin indicated to her that if all the criteria were met, the Falcon Heights Service Center would have to be more than half rebuilt. Erma Olson indicated that Gary Ostergren had sent for plans that had not yet been received. John Labalestra requested information as to what aspect of the ordinance the conditional use is requested. Jerry Vl'allin pointed out that in Carl Dale's Comprehensive Plan concept of the central business district, the long range goal is not to have that type of facility located on that corner. The matter was tabled. Al Stefanson called on the Tatum~Falcon t~toods Task Force to present LARRY STONIE comments on the guidelines submitted to the Planning Commission in their TASK FORCE April 9th letter. Larry Stowe briefly commented on the principal points as they relate to a PUD and which are centered around the density issue. They have established a basic figure of 102 dwelling units under present zoning and increased by a maximum of ~0 percent which is not automatic but dependent upon a system of credits or merits for different items in the PUD that would be provided by the developer. If the area is not developed as a DUD, then the R-1 zoning requirements should be followed with regard to density as laid out in the City Ordinance. Park Ascerno then explained how the ~0 percent figure was arrived at. They t ook the underlying zoning of R-1 on the 25.1 acres as it now exists, which results in 109 units in the area. Proceeding to the R-2 zoning southwest of the area, it contains 1.2 acres and would allow a density of eight units. In the B-lA zoning, containing a half acre, an a1_lowable density would be 20 units per acre or. 10 units for a half acre. This adds up to a total of 127 units per acre. Based upon the assumption that 20 percent of the area would require roadways, they arrived at 102 dwelling units that could be built under current residential zoning. Therefore, at a 32 percent increase for 131 units net, based on R-1 zoning for single family detached housing on the perimeter of the property adjacent to Tatum Street~Falcon 1Noods homes, it totals 7.5 acres at R-1 zoning which yields 33 units. If the remainder is developed at R-2 density it would , yield 19.3 acres or 13l~ units totaling 167 units. Twenty percent is then again subtracted fo roads .for 13)~ units per acre net. In conversations with the Task Force and Orlyn ?vti.ller, a !~0 percent increase was opted for, which they feel is far above what is normally suggested for many of the other DUDS in the metropolitan area. Therefore, they feel that this is a reasonable compromise. ~°d"alter Northrop, 191.2 Summer Street, commented that ~'UD is the best way Vt~ALTER to proceed with acceptable guidelines. He feels that the compromise NORTHROP, proposal will allow development to proceed immediately, if not sooner. 1912 SUl~~VIFR
