The expansion of the berm, and additional <br />landscaping (at maturity) will adequately screen neighbor's views of the <br />semi-trailers. The berm should deflect noise from operations on the MME <br />property. MME has adequate access onto Mustang Drive (no changes to <br />access). The applicant must comply with Rice Creek Watershed District's <br />permitting requirements. <br />3.The Mounds View Municipal Code, Section 1006.06, Subd 3 (Development Plan) <br />prescribes those items to be reviewed. <br />FINDINGS: Applicable items relating to the proposed building and semi-trailer parking <br />lot addition have been reviewed, and found to be consistent with requirements of the City <br />Code, with the Conditions of Approval. <br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the Mounds View City Council, based <br />upon the above Findings, the Staff Report, and in consideration of public testimony, hereby <br />approves the Development Review, with the following conditions: <br />1.The applicant shall revise the Landscape Plan, dated February 18, 2021, to comply with <br />the minimum requirements of the City Code, regarding trees & shrubs. The landscape <br />plan shall be administratively approved by Staff. The general intent is for new plantings <br />to be placed between the berm and the north property line. <br />2.The berm shall be installed, consistent with the landscape plan, dated February 18, 2021. <br />During grading, Staff may require adjustments to avoid impacts to sewer/water <br />infrastructure. <br />3.The applicant shall submit a Landscape Escrow equal to 150% of the estimated cost of <br />materials and labor for landscaping, prior to the City issuing a building permit. The City <br />will inspect landscaping on or about one-year after installation. If 100% of landscaping <br />is found to have survived, 100% of the escrow will be refunded. If landscaping is found <br />to be dead or dying, the applicant will replace, and the City will retain a proportionate <br />amount of the escrow, to be inspected one year after re-installation, and the remaining <br />escrow refunded. <br />4.The applicant shall submit a photometric plan with the building permit application. <br />Existing and proposed lighting is to be compliant with the City Code's standards for light <br />glare ( existing flood lights and parking lot lights need to be downcast or shielded to <br />prevent light trespass). <br />The Mounds View Vision <br />.4 Thriving Desirable Community <br /> Resolution 9397 <br /> Page 3
