June 24, 2002 REVISED Steve Grittman Members of Planning Committee City of Little Canada, MN Subject: Knox Facility — Concept Plan 3203 Country Drive Replatting and Rezoning Dear Steve: Attached is a concept plan of subdividing the Knox Facility parcel. This is based on what was proposed in concept at the City Council Meeting in May. We're asking for the Planning Council to review this concept plan of having B/W Zoning in the front parcels and do PUD on the site. This would give us the outside storage on the back southern property. The council asked us to add more land to Parcel #1 in order to optimize either for a Build -to -Suit Tenant or possibly to build a lease building. We've expanded the building to over 30,000 square feet from 21,000 square feet approximately that was originally proposed. We are asking for no variances. The shed that goes from East to West will be taken down. This optimizes the potential land site. Parcel #2 will be the present Knox facility which is an approximately 46,000 sq ft building and would be a 3.444 acre site. At this time no variances or special requests are needed and this parcel meets all zoning codes. At present we are using the back part for our offices and plan on leasing the front portion of the building to a new client. Parcel #3 is where we plan to operate our business. Our plan is to build a small, approximately 10,000 sq ft, building as our future office showroom and demise part of two canopies where the canopies are today. We will take down one of the front steel buildings next to the Knox facility to improve access and image. At some time in the future we will look at the possibility of building a 30,000 square foot building on the southwest comer. At this time we see no need for variances and everything fits within the city zoning codes.
