of the building. Each playground will have age-appropriate equipment, and the children are encouraged to have free playtime. The site is in the Bridgewater Village development on the northwest quadrant of Manning Ave N and Stillwater Blvd. Pa rents will access the Primrose School via internal roads, making traffic circulation safe, easy, and convenient. With the property owner delivering us a pad ready site, managing all the public street infrastructure, stormwater improvements, irrigation re-use system and utility improvements up to our property boundary, we plan to develop our 2-story prototype building. We paid close attention to the requirements in Chapter 3: Commercial Development of the Design Standards Manual, adhering to the City’s site and building design standards. Working with CASCO, our preferred architect, and Stantec, local civil engineer, and the staff at the City of Lake Elmo, we have worked together to determine the optimal position for the Primrose building, playgrounds, and parking. This site plan allows us to use the preferred site access point given the drainage easement to the west and Bridgewater Bank’s access point to the east. The building is oriented as far north as possible, to front the internal public road, given this access point. Parents will be able to easily navigate the access drive and parking lot with 22-foot-wide drive aisles and a circular flow layout. Parking requirements, building setbacks, parking setbacks, greenspace and landscape requirements all meet City requirements. Operational/Development Details At full occupancy there will be approximately 192 children and 28 staff members. Hours of operation are 6 AM – 6:30 PM Monday through Friday. Occasionally, special events will be held in the evenings and weekends. AM drop off occurs between 6-9:30 AM (peak hour is typically 7:30-8:30 AM). PM pickup is between 3:30-6:30 PM (peak hour is typically 4:30- 5:30 PM). Please note, Primrose Schools do not offer drop-off stalls or lanes, we have all parents park their cars and walk their children inside the building for the maximum amount of safety. The development schedule hinges upon approval timelines, but our goal is to have all permits by fall or early winter of 2025, with the goal of grading and getting the foundations in before the frost.
