Coventry Senior Living Staff Report <br />March 17, 2010 <br />Page 3 <br /> <br /> <br />Setbacks: <br />The proposed development meets the required building setbacks of 30 feet for the front <br />and rear yards and 20 feet for side yards. All parking areas meet the required five-foot <br />setbacks. <br /> <br />Building Design and Materials: <br />The plans indicate that the building will be three-story with an underground garage. The <br />building elevations show a mix of siding styles with stone and/or brick accents on the <br />exterior of the buildings. The plan has the driveway access and main front entrance facing <br />O’Connell Drive. This building design will be very similar to the plans for the Groveland site <br />(the Groveland elevation drawing is included in this report). <br /> <br />Wetlands: <br />There are no wetlands in this development area. The developer would need to apply for a <br />permit from Rice Creek Watershed District for the onsite stormwater management. <br /> <br />Trails and Park Dedication Fee: <br />For all new development along Highway 10, the City requires the property owner/developer <br />to contribute funds for the future trail system based on the amount of County Highway 10 <br />frontage. All subdivisions are subject to a park dedication fee based on the Ramsey <br />County tax assessed value of the land. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br />The Planning Commission should review the site plan and be prepared to provide the City <br />and the developer comments about the concept plans. The Commission should not take <br />any formal action when doing a concept plan review. <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> Heidi Heller <br />Planning Associate <br /> <br /> <br />Attachments: <br />1.
