Planning Case MU2016-003 <br />November 16, 2016 <br />Page 3 <br /> <br />The Salt Shed will consist of three walls, including an 8’ concrete lower wall, and cedar <br />paneling above, ranging in height from 7’ to 14’. <br /> <br />Building height will be 35’-4”’ for the Maintenance Building, and 21’- 9½” for the Salt <br />Storage Shed. The I-1 District allows 3-story buildings (+ 10’ for rooftop equipment). <br /> <br />BUILDING SETBACKS <br /> <br />Proposed building setbacks are compliant with City Code (Variance is needed for north <br />parking lot). <br /> <br />Minimum Setbacks: <br /> Front Yard (north) Side Yard (west) <br />Required Proposed Required Proposed <br />Building(s) 40’ 70’-2” 20’ 64’ <br />Parking/driveway 40’ 13’-2” 5’ 16’-6” <br /> <br />LANDSCAPING <br /> <br />Most of the existing trees along Mounds View Blvd. will be removed and replaced with a <br />storm-water retention basin. Existing trees along the ballfield fence will remain. <br /> <br />The facility will be enclosed by an 8’ tall chain-link fence (8’ decorative wall in NE area). <br />A fence in excess of 4’ within the front yard requires approval by the City Council as part <br />of a Development Review or Conditional Use Permit (the property has two front yards; <br />Bronson Dr. and Mounds View Blvd). <br /> <br />Proposed landscaping is compliant with City Code. Landscaping outside of the fence <br />will include a row of over-story trees, in addition to shrubbery and ornamental trees in <br />areas near pedestrian traffic, such as along Bronson Dr., the ballfield, trail along <br />Mounds View Blvd., and adjacent to the former Snyder’s drive-thru. Trees and shrubs <br />will be mixed in variety. The over-story trees when planted will be 6’ in height, and will <br />grow 40’ – 60’ at maturity. Shrubbery along Bronson Dr. and other pedestrian areas will <br />be 2’ in height when planted, and will grow 3’ at maturity. Sod will be installed near the <br />administration office and along Bronson Dr. Other areas will be seeded. <br /> <br />The amount of landscaping required is based on the building’s size. The City Code <br />allows landscaping to be reduced by 15% when located in the I-1 District.3 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />3 City Code, Section 1127.05, Subd 3(e)
