Mounds View City Council August 23, 1999 <br />Regular Meeting Page 14 <br />Planning Associate Ericson stated MSP Real Estate has made an application to rezone the vacant <br />Kraus-Anderson property located at 2670 County Road I, behind the SuperAmerica Station, from <br />B-2, Limited Business Commercial, to R-4, High-Density Residential. He stated they have also <br />requested a conditional use permit to construct and operate an assisted living senior residential <br />facility, comprised of 48 units, to be located on that parcel. <br />Planning Associate Ericson stated this item was heard by the Planning Commission, at four prior <br />meetings. He stated the Planning Commission, the applicant, staff, and several residents had <br />discussed the issues, bringing forward a number of concerns to the City and the neighborhood. He <br />stated there was extensive discussion with regard to parking on the site, traffic circulation, taxes, and <br />other site related concerns as to whether or not this type of use would be appropriate at this location. <br />He stated a great deal of time had been devoted to this discussion, and as Council Member Marty <br />had indicated, the Planning Commission worked very hard on this issue. <br />Planning Associate Ericson stated the two issues for consideration were the rezoning request, and <br />the conditional use permit request. He stated the conditional use permit could be accomplished with <br />a resolution, which would be drafted, pending the Council's discussion and direction to staff. He <br />stated the rezoning would be accomplished through an ordinance, which would require two readings. <br />He stated an ordinance has been drafted for the Council's consideration, and the public hearing had <br />• been scheduled for the present meeting. He stated the Council could determine whether or not they <br />would entertain the reading of the ordinance at this time. <br />Planning Associate Ericson stated staff had reviewed the tax issues and discussed them with the <br />Ramsey County Tax Assessor's office. He stated this was in regard to the effects of the proposed <br />use on the tax base, and whether or not a commercial use would generate more tax dollars. He stated <br />it was determined that the proposed use would quite possibly generate more to the City's tax base <br />than a retail use, which would be permitted in the B-2 Zoning District. He stated the applicant has <br />indicated the valuation of the project would be approximately 1.5 million dollars. He stated, should <br />that be the case, the City could be acquiring a significant tax base with this proposal. <br />Planning Associate Ericson stated, with regard to the rezoning request, the Planning Commission <br />had requested there be a mechanism to revert the zoning of the property to the commercial <br />designation if the proposed use did not go forward. He explained that Ordinance 631, presently <br />before the Council, contained a clause in Section 3, which proposes that, in the event this project <br />does not proceed, the City Council may act to rezone the property back to its original zoning <br />designation. He stated this matter had been reviewed by the City Attorney, who indicated that the <br />language was in proper legal form, and would not create a situation in which the Council would be <br />obligated to act. <br />Planning Associate Ericson stated there are some specific site requirements, in terms of the <br />. conditional use permit, regarding side yards, side yard setbacks, and other similar matters. He stated <br />all of these criteria could and will be met. He stated one other action that would be required prior <br />to this request coming to fruition, would be that the developer would be required to come before the <br />14C:~ADMIN\MINUTES\CC\8-23-99.CC <br />
