Mounds View Planning Commission July 19, 2000 Regular Meeting Page 5 requested today for parking, but the lot line is being changed to allow Culver’s to retain the area should it occur that they need additional parking in the future. He noted using that area for parking would not be easy, and would involve wetland mitigation. He agreed with the staff recommendation to remove the notation that it is a parking area since that is not being proposed at this time. In response to Commissioner Thomas, Mr. Cunningham explained the right-in is designed as requested by the Ramsey County Traffic Engineer so it will not be perceived as a high speed slip off lane and would require a turning movement at about 15 miles per hour. He noted this design would slow the cars substantially as they exit from Highway 10 and make the turning movement into the parking lot. Mr. Cunningham advised they have used a similar design in another area where a trail was in the vicinity and found it worked well. Commissioner Johnson reviewed the discussion held by the Steering Committee relating to the configuration of the trail to slow down the speed of bicycles. Mr. Cunningham stated they will work with staff to assure that an acceptable design is included. He suggested this is a good first step in the right direction for the use of Highway 10. Planner Ericson reviewed proposed corrections to the resoution including a corrected title, a revision to the NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED paragraph on Page 3 to add the wording: “the rezoning of land from B-3 and PF to PUD,” and another revision to Page 3, sub 1a, to state “The bituminous trailway shall be changed to a 9-foot width.” MOTION/SECOND: Kaden/Johnson to approve Resolution 623-00, a Resolution Recommending Approval of (1) A Preliminary Plat of a Major Subdivision, (2) A Development Review Stage of a Proposed Planned Unit Development, (3) A Rezoning Of The Properties from B-3, Highway Business, and PF, Public Facilities to PUD, Planned Unit Development, and (4) An Exchange of Land for and with TOLD Development Company; Planning Case No. ZC00- 002.
