Medtronic Review October 10, 2005 Page 2 What has changed? As was indicated at the worksession meeting, the development stage plans for the Medtronic CRM PUD have been revised from the general concept plans reviewed on August 22. The concept plan identified four distinct buildings in a pin-wheel orientation tied together by a two- story atrium-like commons area. While there remain four distinct eight-story buildings, these are now all oriented in an east-west fashion to enhance environmental sustainability. The first two phases would be linked together by stacked corridors and meeting rooms 60 feet wide except at the main level where the connective space is 180 feet wide. The first phase would be connected to the parking ramp north of the buildings at the ground level, where the daycare and service areas would be located. The parking plan remains the same, in that Phase 1 would include a three-story structured ramp to the north and the 900 surface stalls near the building entrance. Phasing Schedule The Council is considering the full build-out of the Medtronic CRM project, which will be constructed in three phases. The current development agreement does not address the timing of the future phases—construction of Phase 2 and 3 would occur solely dependent upon Medtronic’s growth and internal needs. (Phasing of a project is permitted regardless of whether or not the project was presented as a planned unit development.) If subsequent phases are developed in accordance with the requirements and conditions of the governing Council authorization, no further planning action would be necessary to construct Phase 2 and 3, unless changes to the footprint and design would warrant review and re-approval by the Planning Commission and City Council. Table 1. Building and Parking Phasing. Building Space Parking spaces Phase 1 2 buildings connected by Commons/atrium area 820,000 square feet total 2,100 structured stalls 900 surface stalls Phase 2 1 additional building 380,000 more square feet 1,400 more structured stalls by adding two more levels onto Phase 1 parking structure Phase 3 1 additional building 300,000 more square feet 1,600 structured stalls in four level ramp Å located in Blaine Total at full Build out 1,500,000 square feet in four connected buildings 6,000 structured and surface parking stalls, two parking structures Setbacks The buildings are set back a minimum of 40-feet from the periphery lot line, which is consistent with the minimum requirements within a PUD. The buildings will be no closer than 80 feet to Highway 10 and 60 feet to Coral Sea Street and 82 Lane NE. The Phase 1 parking ramp will be set back 100 feet from Coral Sea Street to preserve an existing stand of mature Scarlet Oak trees. The parking lot / ramp along 82 Lane NE will be set back 40 feet.
