STAFF ORIGINATOR: CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: TOPIC: AGENDA ITEM 7 E Bob Kirmis/Alan Brixius September 24, 2001 Centennial School District - Elementary School Site and Building Plan Review and Conditional Use Permit Amendment REQUESTED ACTION: 3/5 Vote to approve CUP 3/5 Vote to approve Site Plan BACKGROUND Centennial School District is requesting site and building plan and conditional use permit amendment approval to allow the construction of an elementary school upon the 79 acre Centennial Middle School site located south of I 35W and west of Lake Drive between Elm Street and I -35W. Earlier this year, the City approved a rezoning of the 15 acres of land located north of the Middle School site from L-1, Limited Industrial to PSP, Public and a minor subdivision to allow the conveyance of the 15 acre parcel to the School District. Because the 15 acre elementary school parcel is to be combined with the adjacent 64 acre middle school site, the processing of a conditional use permit amendment is necessary. Resultantly, the middle school and proposed elementary school would be governed by a single conditional use permit. This review is based on the following plan submittals: Site Location Site Survey Overall Site Layout dated 8/13/01 Landscape Plan dated 8/13/01 Grading and Erosion Control Plan dated 8/13/01 Utility Plan dated 8/13/01 Floor Plans dated 8/13/01 Building Elevations dated 8/13/01 Rice Creek Watershed Correspondence dated 8/23/01 Environmental Board Comments dated (8/31/01) ANALYSIS Centennial School District - Elementary School Site and Building Plan Review/Conditional Use Permit September 24, 2001 Page 2 CUP Evaluation Criteria: Because schools are listed as "conditional uses" within the PSP zoning district, the processing of a conditional use permit is necessary. The Ordinance states that the Planning and Zoning Board may recommend approval of and the City Council may order a conditional use permit only if it finds that the proposed use at the proposed location: A. Will not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, comfort, convenience or general welfare of the neighborhood or the City. B. Will be harmonious with the general and applicable specific plans and policies of the Comprehensive Plan and the Ordinance. C. Will be designed, constructed, operated, and maintained so as to be harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing and/or intended character of the general vicinity and will not change the essential character of the area. D. Will be served adequately by essential public facilities and services, including streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse disposal, water and sewer systems, and schools; or will be served adequately by such facilities and services provided by the persons or agencies responsible for the establishment of the proposed use. E. Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community. F. Will not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property, or the general welfare because of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare, or odors. G. Will have vehicular approaches to the property which are so designed as not to create congestion or an interference with traffic on surrounding public thoroughfares. H. Will not result in the destruction, loss, or damage of a natural, scenic or historic feature of major importance. I. Will conform to specific standards of this ordinance applicable to the particular use. Land Use and Zoning: The City's Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property for industrial use. As part of the City's recent rezoning of the property from L -I, Light Industrial to PSP, Public/Semi-Public, a determination was made that the proposed use is consistent with industrial land use designation (Ord. 14-1). Centennial School District - Elementary School Site and Building Plan Review/Conditional Use Permit September 24, 2001 Page 3 The following is a listing of existing land uses, guided land uses and zoning designations that surround the middle school/elementary school site. Lot Requirements: Previous approval of the minor subdivision (to create the subject parcel) was conditioned upon the combination of the 15 acre parcel with the adjacent Middle School parcel. Such condition was imposed to address lot width and setbacks concerns that would have resulted from the creation of an independent Elementary School parcel. The PSP District makes a specific allowance for campus type development and the existence of multiple buildings upon a single lot of record. In addition to the required lot combination, it was also required that a portion of Fourth Avenue which bisects the property to be vacated. Based on the premise that the 15 acre elementary school property will be combined with the adjacent middle school lot and that the segment of Fourth Avenue which bisects the property will be vacated, the proposed elementary school meets applicable PSP District lot and setback requirements as shown below Existing Land Use Guided Land Use Zoning North I-35W/Industrial Industrial L -I, Light Industrial South Single Family Residential Low Density Residential R-1, Single Family East Industrial and vacant Industrial L -I, Light Industrial West Institutional Industrial PSP, Public/Semi- Public Lot Requirements: Previous approval of the minor subdivision (to create the subject parcel) was conditioned upon the combination of the 15 acre parcel with the adjacent Middle School parcel. Such condition was imposed to address lot width and setbacks concerns that would have resulted from the creation of an independent Elementary School parcel. The PSP District makes a specific allowance for campus type development and the existence of multiple buildings upon a single lot of record. In addition to the required lot combination, it was also required that a portion of Fourth Avenue which bisects the property to be vacated. Based on the premise that the 15 acre elementary school property will be combined with the adjacent middle school lot and that the segment of Fourth Avenue which bisects the property will be vacated, the proposed elementary school meets applicable PSP District lot and setback requirements as shown below * Frontage along Elm Street Vehicular Traffic: As part of the recent rezoning of the property, findings were made that traffic generated by the proposed use will be within the capabilities of streets serving Required Proposed Lot size minimum 1 acre 79 acres Lot width minimum 150 feet 682 feet* Setbacks: Buildings from collector/arterial street rear lot line side lot line Parking from street rear lot line side lot line 50 feet 30 feet 20 feet 15 feet 5 feet 10 Feet 120 feet 120 feet 560 feet 20 Feet 20 Feet 20 Feet * Frontage along Elm Street Vehicular Traffic: As part of the recent rezoning of the property, findings were made that traffic generated by the proposed use will be within the capabilities of streets serving Centennial School District - Elementary School Site and Building Plan Review/Conditional Use Permit September 24, 2001 Page 4 the property. This issue should however, be subject to further comment by the City Engineer. In regard to vehicular circulation, some concerns exist regarding the necessary backing maneuvers of buses in the designated bus parking lot. Such maneuvering creates a conflicting traffic pattern and raises safety concerns. Pedestrian and Bicycle Traffic: Pedestrian access to the school will be provided via an extension of the Middle School trailway/sidewalk system and is separated from bus traffic. The submitted site plan does not illustrate bicycle rack locations. It is recommended that bicycle racks be provided which allow students safe lockage of bicycles within convenient distance of the school's entries. As a condition of site and building plan/conditional use permit approval, the site plan should be revised to illustrate bicycle rack locations. Building Height: The two story elementary school measures 30'-5" in height and complies with the maximum 45 foot height requirement imposed in the PSP District. Building Materials: As shown on the submitted building elevations, the school will be finished in materials and colors that will match the nearby middle school. The base of the building will be finished in red face brick with textured EFIS (tan) being provided on the upper half of the structure. Smooth EIFS (tan) has been provided as an accent to the upper half of the gymnasium portion of the building. The proposed building materials meet the requirements of Section 3 Subd. 4.B of the ordinance and complement the materials and colors of the adjacent middle school. Phasing: The submitted site plan does not illustrate any future expansion possibilities for the school. If a future phase (or phases) is anticipated, its location should be identified on the site plan. Parking: The standards for calculating the off-street parking requirements for elementary schools are outlined in Section 3, Subdivision 5 of the Ordinance. As calculated below, a total of 147 off-street parking stalls are required of the proposed school. Code Requirement Required Spaces 34 classrooms 1 space per classroom 34 750 students 1 space for every 300 students 3 110 employees 1 space for each employee 110 No auditorium seats 1 space for every 4 auditorium seats 0 Total 147 Centennial School District - Elementary School Site and Building Plan Review/Conditional Use Permit September 24, 2001 Page 5 With a total of 173 stalls being provided on site, the minimum off-street parking supply requirements of the Ordinance have been satisfied. Access/Circulation/Parking Stall Dimensions: The elementary school is to be accessed via a northerly extension of the middle school access drive from Elm Street. The standards for access and traffic circulation are outlined in Section 3, Subdivision 5 of the City Code and illustrated below. As shown above, the subject property meets all of the requirements of the referenced section. Green Area: The Ordinance requires that a minimum of 35 percent of the subject site be devoted to open space, yard and/or landscaped area. The combined middle school/elementary school site significantly exceeds the minimum green area requirement. Trash Enclosure: Trash and recycling handling activities are to occur on the east side of the school (alongside the gymnasium). As a condition of site and building plan/conditional use permit approval, all trash handling equipment must be screened from view of adjacent properties by a fence of wall at least six feet in height with a minimum opaqueness of 80 percent. Lighting: The applicant's submission did not include a photometric lighting plan nor does the site plan illustrate exterior lighting locations. According to Section 3 Subd. 4.H of the Ordinance, any lighting used to illuminate an off-street parking area must be hooded and arranged to deflect light away public streets and adjacent properties. As a condition of site and building plan/conditional use permit approval, a photometric plan and light fixture details should be submitted subject to review and approval by the City Council. It has been indicated that the proposed ball fields will not be illuminated. It should be noted that if the school district does decide to illuminate the field at some future point, it would be necessary to process a conditional use permit amendment.

Centennial School District - Elementary School Site and Building Plan Review/Conditional Use Permit September 24, 2001 Page 6 Signage: Institutional signage associated with the elementary school is governed by the City's sign ordinance and will be subject to a separate permit. All signs will be reviewed with the sign permit applications. Landscaping: Generally speaking, the submitted landscape plan is well conceived. The plan calls for a mixture of coniferous and deciduous plants, trees, and shrubs throughout the site. More specifically, a row of spruce trees (Black Hills or Colorado) have been proposed along I -35W and canopy trees (Sugar Maple, Red Maple and White Ash) have been proposed along the periphery of the building. Sod has been proposed in along the perimeter of the school while the outlying areas (play fields etc) are to be seeded. The landscape plan specifies planting varieties only in a general sense (i.e. evergreen, canopy and understory trees). As a condition of site and building plan and conditional use permit approval, the variety of each individual planting should be specified. In addition, the Environmental Board has recommended that planting varieties be evaluated in terms of salt tolerance, particularly those plantings proposed along I -35W. Tree Preservation: As a condition of site and building plan and conditional use permit approval, a tree preservation plan should be submitted. Trees considered worthy of preservation by the Environmental Board include some Eastern Red Cedars and a row of Pines. Fencing: While the site plan illustrates an existing fence along I -35W, it does not indicate whether or not any new fencing is to be provided on site. In review of the site plan, it is suggested that fencing be provided in the following areas: • Along the east side of the play fields to prevent stray balls from entering the adjacent wetland. • Along the sides of the play areas (north and west of the school) which border the bus parking lot. Play Fields: As shown on the submitted site plan, two play fields have been proposed east of the elementary school. The southerly play field is also to be utilized as softball field. As mentioned previously, the softball field is not to be illuminated. Loading: Loading activities are to occur on the east side of the building. The area is provided ample area for service vehicle maneuvering and will be screened via evergreen plantings (proposed to the north and south of the drive lane). Wetland: As depicted on the site plan, a wetland exists in the eastern area of the site. The Rice Creek Watershed District has reviewed the plan submission and has recommended to table with authorization for administrative action (TWAFAA) subject to `'" the receipt of information identified in the attached correspondence. Centennial School District - Elementary School Site and Building Plan Review/Conditional Use Permit September 24, 2001 Page 7 Grading, Drainage and Utilities: A grading/drainage plan and utility plan have been submitted for review. As noted on the utility plan, the proposed building encroaches on an existing utility easement. The acceptability of this condition as well as the grading/drainage plan and utility plan should be subject to review and approval by the City Engineer. It also should be noted that the Environmental Board has recommended that the area on the western side of the bus parking lot be considered for infiltration purposes. The Planning Commission recommends that this proposed infiltration area be retained as a grass field. Environmental Board Action: Comments of the Environmental Board, dated 8/31/01, are attached. OPTIONS 1. Recommend approval of the site and building plan/conditional use permit amendment request (to allow the construction of an elementary school within a PSP, Public/Semi- Public District) based on the findings outlined in the September 19, 2001 planning report and subject to the conditions outlined in Resolution 01-159. 2. Recommend denial of the site and building plan/conditional use permit amendment request (to allow the construction of an elementary school within a PSP, Public/Semi- Public District) based on findings of fact from the Planning Commission. 3. Table the application and request more information. RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Board recommends approval of the site and building plan/conditional use permit to allow the construction an elementary school in a PSP, Public/Semi-Public zoning District as outlined in the meeting minutes.
