Ayes (5). Nays (0). Resolution declared adopted. AMEND PUD Blesener opened the Public Hearing to consider an Amendment to PERMIT — Planned Unit Development Permit to allow a three -level addition of ST. JUDE approximately 20,000 square feet consisting of manufacturing and MEDICAL office space to the existing Phase 1 building for St. Jude Medical at One St. Jude Drive. Blesener noted that the City Planner and the Planning Commission have recommended approval subject to conditions. The City Planner indicated that St. Jude Medical is proposing a 3- story, 20,000 square foot addition to the east side of their technology center adjacent to the loading area. Exterior materials will be sirnilar to the existing building. The Planner noted that when the PUD was originally approved for St. Jude, a future parking deck was anticipated to accommodate the additional parking that would be needed. Under this proposal, an additional 50+ parking spaces would be added on the south side of the existing parking lot. The Planner noted that the applicant has indicated that when the second phase of the technology center is constructed, this parking would be removed and the parking deck added. The Planner noted that the applicant was asked to verify that adequate screening to the south residential area would be added, and they have provided some information in that regard. He also noted that if the additional parking proposed is not adequate, St. Jude can utilize the existing parking supply to the east. The Planner indicated that the proposal before the Council appears to be consistent with long -terns expansion plans. The Planner then reviewed the recommended approval conditions outlined in his January 6, 2011 report. He also noted that the City Engineer submitted a report dated January 5, 2011 which also outlines approval conditions. Blesener asked the dimensions of the proposed addition. Nina Eberhausen, Architectural Alliance, reported that the addition will extend 36 feet to the east and 150 feet wide matching the existing building. 2 11
