• • • Fairview Clinic, page 2 Preliminary and Final Plat The plat drawings include the existing 1.72 acre Fairview Clinic property (Lot 1, Block 1 of The Village No. 1), and the 1.1 acre City of Lino Lake' s property (two parcels). The result of the plat will be the expansion of the Fairview Clinic property to 2.19 acres, and the remaining 0.64 acres will be retained by the City until it is needed for the on -ramp project. As part of the Legacy at Wood's Edge project the City will be reconstructing Lake Drive to accommodate the required street width. This reconstruction also includes a trail along the east side of Lake Drive. The city is requesting that Fairview dedicate a 10 foot wide trail easement parallel to Lake Drive. The appropriate drainage and utility easements are depicted on the plat. The final plat incorporates property owned by Fairview, the City of Lino Lakes, and property being purchased by the city from Glenn Rehbein et al. There appears to be some existing title issues with the Rehbein parcel, therefore staff is recommending that the Rehbein property be dropped from the final plat and the north line of Outlot A be modified to reflect this change. Planned Unit Development The proposed addition to the existing clinic is only required to obtain the conditional use permit for a Planned Unit Development in order to allow the expansion to be moved closer to the right of way in keeping with the spirit and intent of the development standards for the Wood's Edge project. Within the Limited Business oning; district the setback for this type of addition would be 30 feet. The applicant is proposing a 9 foot setback from Village Drive. Across the street the Wood's Edge project is requiring no more than 5 feet from the right of way. Buildin Materials/ Elevations The submitted elevations depict brick walls with cast stone capping in keeping with the existing construction -The matching of old and new construction has been hidden with facade articulations whenever possible, an ntry treatments have been used on the north side to emulate those used for the main entry on the south side. A conditioned by the Planning and Zoning Board, a second pop -out with windows and trellis has been added 1 the north portion of the east wall. The main concern of staff at this point is the matching of brick color to the existing building and the transitic frorn existing brick to new brick. For the most part the proposed design hides the transition points from existih 10 new brick, with the exception of the Lake Drive elevation. This transition point will be clearly the me visible and is therefore is the most cause for concern. Staff is recommending a condition requiring that t applicant match brick color as much as possible, and if the color difference is significant enough that sot architectural feature or embellishment be done on the Lake Drive elevation to hide the transition point in sot fashion.
