1. The Concept Plan conforms to the Comprehensive Plan of the City.
2. The Concept Plan satisfies the intent and purposes of the City's land use, zoning and
subdivision regulations..
3. The Concept Plan is consistent with the public health, safety and general welfare.
NOW, THERFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lake Elmo City Council does hereby approve
and accept the Planned Unit Development Concept Plan as the same is on file with the City Administrator
subject to the following conditions:
1. The Development Stage plans shall address all PUD site peripheries with respect to measures
proposed to buffer uses and structures within the project from the incompatible uses off -site,
and public roadways. Development Stage Plans shall include detailed plans for site
peripheries, including on site landscape, spatial separation and topographic relief that will be
the responsibility of the overall project developer, not the individual site developers, together
with a timetable for installation of these improvements and a plan for the perpetual
maintenance of the improvements.
2. The Development Stage plans shall address, in detail, measures proposed to visually and
functionally Iink the uses proposed for the area of the site north of Hudson Boulevard with the
service uses proposed south of Hudson Boulevard. Key components would include pedestrian
movement; architectural design, signage, landscape themes, and site lighting...:.... .
3. Development Stage application documentation shall include a Project Design Guide that, in
narrative, tabular and graphic form, specifies required standards for development for all
individual lots within the PUD. The standards shall directly relate to; but not necessarily be
the same as, those prescribed by the BP (Business Park) section of the Lake Elmo Zoning
Ordinance, and the other chapters of the Lake Elmo City Code that regulate land:and site
development (e.g. lighting, parking, noise and others that may:apply). The documentation of
PUD design standards shall include a description of the degree and manner of flexibility from
existing City Code standards for development in the BP (Business Park) District proposed by
the applicant, and the reasons such flexibility is proposed. It is the intent of this condition that
the Design Guide become an appendix to, and a part of the PUD Developers Agreement. The
Protective Covenants submitted by the applicant under Tab 42 of the PUD Concept Plan
Booklet are expressly excluded from this Concept Plan approval action. Proposed project and
site design standards shall be submitted with the Development Stage application only.

standards for building architecture /construction materials, landscaping, parking lot and
building service area design/location, and landscaped area irrigation, to ensure internal
conformity of appearance and minimal external visual impact.
S. The Development Stage application shall propose measures to forecast, monitor and regulate
waste water discharge from individual sites to ensure compliance with waste water volume
restrictions prescribed for Lake Elmo by contract and the Metropolitan Council.
G. The Development Stage Plan shall provide for a greater degree of Open Space aggregation
than represented by the Concept through the clustering of buildings and activities, as
contemplated by the Planned Unit Development "Purpose" paragraph (Section 300.08, Para. 1)
of the Lake Elmo City code.
