<br />Item No: 7 <br />Meeting Date: October 6, 2004 <br />Type of Business: Commission Business <br />City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />To: Mounds View Planning Commission <br />From: Kristin Prososki, Planning Associate <br />Item Title/Subject: Review Parking Situation at Mounds View Gables <br />(National Handicapped Housing Institute) <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Introduction: <br /> <br />In 2002, the Planning Commission reviewed a development proposal requested by National <br />Handicapped Housing Institute for Mounds View Gables. At the time of the review, the <br />applicant requested that the number of required parking spaces be reduced due to the fact <br />that many of the residents are not vehicle owners. At that time, the Planning Commission <br />approved the reduction of parking requirements, but noted that the parking situation would <br />be reviewed a year after the housing facility was constructed. The project was completed in <br />2003 and it is now an appropriate time to review the current parking situation. <br /> <br /> <br />Discussion: <br /> <br />Staff inspected the lot numerous times over the past few months and has never observed <br />the lot more than 50% full. Staff feels that the housing facility has adequate parking for the <br />use. Staff has not received any complaints or negative feedback regarding the parking <br />situation at Mounds View Gables. The Management of Mounds View Gables was invited to <br />attend the Planning Commission meeting, so that they would have the opportunity to <br />comment on the current parking situation. <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br /> <br />Kristin Prososki <br />Planning Associate <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
