9. PLANNING, LAND USE & ZONING: A. PUD Concept Plan — Prairie Ridge Office Park Planner Dillerud reported the Planning Commission unanimously adopted a recommendation to approve this PUD Concept Plan to develop a 17 acre site at the Southwest corner of Stillwater Blvd. and State Highway 5 as a multi -building condo office project. The applicant has applied for concept approval of a 7 building (two story) development with 45,000 square feet of gross building area, 40,000 square feet of net leasable building area, and 25,500 square feet of building footprint. The Planner continued by reporting that the concept plan, as proposed, overbuilds the site based the wastewater generation factors specified by the LB section of the Zoning Ordinance. A condition of the Planning Commission approval recommendation is that subsequent PUD applications reflect a reduction of gross building area to 35,000 square feet and net leasable building area to 32,000 square feet to comply with the Code Wastewater generation factor. John Johnson, representing the Tacbeny family, explained the proposed plan of 45,000 square feet is only 3% impervious surface coverage. The parking lot is twice the size that is needed. The total ground coverage is well under the maximum requirement-40%. Mr. Tacheny stated the only use of water would be a sink, bathroom... no food. These buildings are professional office buildings for area psychiatrists, psychologists, and attorneys. In their professional building in Roseville, they have approx 5 to 8 people per building. Dillerud stated the communal systems are tied with the individual buildings. Council member Dunn noted the she would not be in favor of increasing the size of the buildings and desired to include the recommendations from VBWD and the conditions of the Planning Commission.
