WHEREAS, the Comprehensive Plan recommended for approval by the Planning
Commission designates the parcels associated with the PUD as CC-PUD, Community
Commercial Planned Unit Development; and,
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held public hearings relative to this request on
June 7, 2000 and July 5, 2000; and,
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission makes the following findings regarding the
criteria for a PUD zoning designation as identified in Section 1125.01 Subd. 1.e. of the
Mounds View Municipal Code:
(I) Relationship to Municipal Comprehensive Plan
The Comprehensive Plan recommended for approval by the Planning Commission defines a
Community Commercial use as a "Land use principally engaged in the provision of goods or services
with a primary service to the conununity" Examples of such uses would include retail and service-
oriented businesses such as banks, dntg stores, restaurants, veterinary clinics or day care centers.
(2) The geographical area involved,
(3) Whether such use will tend to or actually depreciate the area in which it is proposed.
( 4) The character of the surrounding area.
The surrounding area is dominated by municipal activities, such as City Hall. the COImnunity Center
and the Public Works building: commercial activities, such as Wymlsong Theatre and Donatelle's
Supper Club; and natural open space areas. Separated by an expanse of open space to the east is a
smgle-family home subdivision Given the separation of distance, it is not expected that the smglc-
family homes would be depreciated or impacted in any way. The general area in recent years has
become the heart of Mounds View' with the development of the IS-screen movie theatre and
constntction of the Community Center. It is believed that a Walgreens and proposed restaurant
development would be consistent with and complementary to the immediate area.
(5) The demonstrated need for the use.
The applicant"s client feels strongly, given Mounds View's existing and anticipated demographical
composition. that this area would be an appropriate and successful location for a neighborhood-
oriented Walgreens, Regarding the proposed restaurant, previous market research and resident
surveys have indicated a strong support and desire for additional non-fast food restaurant chOices.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission finds that this proposal satisfies the purpose and
intent of a PUD as stated in Section 1120.01 of the Mounds View Municipal Code in that the
proposal contemplates the overall development of these properties and provides for an
appropriate mix of complementary uses adding to the vitality of the City Center; and,
WHEREAS, requirements would be included to ensure high quality architectural design
and coordinated signage, preservation of the wetlands, and consideration given to preserving
existing tree cover outside of development areas wherever possible; and,
