PLANNING AND ZONING REPORT, MARY KAY WYLAND Site Plan, Lift Stations, Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES), Ware Road - Ms. Wyland explained that a request to construct a building resembling a single family home on Outlot A and Outlot B, Pine Ridge, Third Addition has been presented for Planning and Zoning Board and City Council review and approval. The building will house a MCES sanitary sewer lift station. The construction of the lift station is critical in order to handle increasing sanitary sewer needs for the City of Lino Lakes. Construction of this project was originally anticipated for late 1995 and is now expected to be complete in the fall of 1996. The MCES has already held public hearings and neighborhood meetings concerning the construction of the force main that will service this lift station and actual construction of the main is anticipated in the near future. The force main will run south on Ware Road and then west on Ash Street (County Road J) to approximately Lexington Avenue where it will connect with an existing interceptor. Ms. Wyland used the overhead project to show the intended location of the building. This item is being presented to the City Council for review because any construction, other than single family construction, in a Single Family (R-1) residential district requires a site plan review. SITE EVALUATION The proposed construction will consist of a building approximately 1100 square feet in area which is very similar to a single family home. It will include the appearance of a double garage, driveway, extensive landscaping, and brick facade on the building. The building will be located on Outlot A of the Pine Ridge, Third Addition, however, a portion of the underground utilities will extend onto Outlot B. The MCES has purchased PAGE 9
