Item No: 08D Meeting Date: July 8, 2019 Type of Business: Council BusinessMOTVDS VIEW City Administrator Review: City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Jon Sevald, Community Development Director Item Title/Subject: Resolution 9132, Approving a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for a Residential Planned Unit Development of Crossroad Pointe (Planning Case MU2019-001) Introduction: INH Properties is proposing to develop a 128 -unit apartment building at the south corner of Mounds View Boulevard and County Road H2. The project involves multiple planning applications, including a request for a CUP for a PUD, and a Development Review. To simplify this process, the CUP and Development Review have been combined into one Resolution. This item was Tabled at the June 24, 2019 Council meeting, with the intent that the Council would take action on all Crossroad Pointe items at the same meeting. Discussion: Within a PUD district, a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) may be issued for a Residential PUD, Commercial/Industrial PUD, or Mixed -Use PUD, subject to an approved "PUD Narrative" which establishes project restrictions (e.g. refers to the approved site plan, landscaping, building design & materials, etc.). A Development Review is required for projects which include building projects of 10,000 sq ft or greater, or building additions of 10% or greater (excluding single-family homes). The proposed apartments will be 144,934 sq ft in total area. In general, the process of approving a PUD is a give & take. The City approves variations (gives) from standard City Code requirements, in return for (takes) higher standards in building and site design than the minimum required by the City Code. PUD's are intended to allow flexibility, within the limits of the PUD Narrative. Analysis: Project Size 4.06 acres (minimum 3 -acres required as a PUD). Zoning The property is proposed to be zoned PUD, and is within the County Road 10 Corridor Overlay District. The overlay district has greater standards for building design and landscaping, which may be superseded as a PUD. Comprehensive Plan The property is guided for Mixed -Use PUD in the Comprehensive Plan (2008), and is guided as Mixed -Use in the Draft 2040 Comprehensive Plan. The Draft Plan identifies the residential component of Mixed Use to have a density of 15 to 30 units per acre (31.53 units per acre is the proposed density).
