MOUNDS,VIEw City of Mounds View Staff Report To: From: Item Title/Subject: Item No: Meeting Date: Type of Business Planning Case 0513 Nov 3, 2021 Planning Case MA2021-002 Planning Commission Jon Sevald, Community Development Director Resolution 1141-21; Recommending Approval of the Preliminary and Final Plat of Skyline; and Zoning Map Amendment; Planned Unit Development; Development Review; and Wetland Alteration Permit for The Villas of Mounds View Introduction: The applicant, The Villas of Mounds View, LP (MWF Properties) is proposing to redevelop the former Skyline Motel into The Villas of Mounds View, consisting of a 120-unit apartment building. The project will feature senior (55+), affordable housing. The project has two parts; (1) subdivision; and (2) everything else. For the purposes of the Planning Commission, both are grouped into one resolution. They will be separated for the City Council's public hearings. The subdivision is applicable to both The Villas and Bio-Clean, whereas "everything else" is applicable to The Villas only. Specific to the Subdivision, there are a number of revisions necessary. Staff's intent is for the Developer to complete necessary items prior to the City Council's November 22nd Public Hearing, and for the Subdivision to be approved with conditions requiring administrative review/approval. This is necessary to keep the project on schedule for applying for financial assistance from the State by January, 2022. Discussion: The plat; Skyline, will combine four parcels into Lot 1 for The Villas of Mounds View (apartment building), and will add land onto the Bio-Clean property (Lot 2). Bio-Clean installs industrial washing equipment into the backs of straight trucks (large cargo vans), and has been at this location since 1981. Bio-Clean is planning a building addition within 2-3 years. Depending on the size of the addition, it is likely it will require a Development Review at that time (not now). Bio-Clean previously received a Variance to reduce the rear yard building setback, from 40' to 30' (Resolution 420-95), and a Development Review in 2004 for a building expansion (Resolution 6283).
