• Noises • Noises emanating from any use shall be in compliance with and regulated by the MPCA, Minnesota Regulations MPC 7030, as amended, and City code. Waste Material Any waste material resulting from any use must be disposed of in a manner approved by the Minnesota State Fire Marshal, the MPCA, the Department of Natural Resources, and the Zoning Administrator. Landscaping The Lino Lakes Zoning Ordinance requires that parking areas of six (6) or more spaces shall be landscaped on all sides, that for sites with 50 or more stalls, irrigated landscaped islands or peninsulas or rain gardens shall be provided at a rate of 100 square feet per 25 surface stalls, and that no landscaping or screening shall interfere with drive or pedestrian visibility. A Landscape Plan was presented as part of the overall Plan. The Environmental Review Board reviewed the Plans on July 30, 2003 (See Attachment 1). The Landscape Plan shows 20 larger shade trees and 10 additional smaller trees. The Plan also shows a number of smaller plants including asters, daylilies, hostas, rose and junipers. All sodded areas are irrigated. The Landscape Plan meets the requirements of the City's Zoning Ordinance. Off Street Parking The requirements for off - street parking prescribe one off - street parking space for each 200 feet of retail space. The proposal includes approximately 12,580 square feet of retail space, which would result in the need for 63 off - street parking spaces. For auto repair establishments, two spaces per serving bay are required, which results in the need for 6 spaces (3 bays x 2 spaces). Together, the building will require 69 off -street parking spaces. The Developer is proposing 70 spaces including three ADA accessible spaces. There could be conflicts associated with the parking spaces on the northeast side of the parking lot. Incoming cars going southeast through the lot may encounter vehicles backing out of the three northeast parking stalls. Incoming vehicles should be directed to the west of the lot to avoid conflicts. The Proposal meets the requirements of the ordinance. Driveway Access The Zoning Ordinance states that driveways onto arterials and major collectors are prohibited where alternative street access is available. The Comprehensive Plan does not distinguish Lilac Drive as a major collector. For the purposes of this analysis, then, access shall be allowed onto Lilac Street. 12701 -001
