PUD Amendment Report April 28, 2003 Page 3 5. The demonstrated need for such use. Residents continually comment that it would be nice to have another sit-down type of restaurant in the City. (There are many restaurant options in Mounds View, however most are of the “Fast food” variety.) The other most wanted uses residents tend to identify are grocery, hardware and medical. It is my understanding that the proposed office building on Outparcel A would be marketed to medical practitioners. Only one such use exists in the City currently—Silverview Chiropractic in Silverview Plaza. A specialized office development on this site could fill a niche not currently met in the City. Planning Commission Action: Based upon its review of the adverse effects and analysis to determine consistency with the Comprehensive Plan, the Planning Commission prepared a “Finding of Fact” and recommended that the proposed PUD amendment be approved. Their resolution, Resolution 725-03, is attached for the Council’s review. Summary: Based upon the above review of potential adverse effects, it appears that there is sufficient basis to accept an amendment to the Theater PUD to allow for an office use on Outparcel A as an acceptable alternative to a restaurant. Recommendation: Continue the public hearing and discuss the proposed PUD amendment and consider any additional potential adverse effects associated with the amendment. If the City Council concurs with the Planning Commission’s recommendation, Resolution 5997 is available for your action this evening. If the Council is opposed to the amendment request, direction would be needed to draft a resolution denying the request. _____________________________________ James Ericson Interim City Administrator Attachments: 1.
