Page 3 of 6 DISCLAIMER: concept project information based on preliminary assumptions. Changes will occur. September 3, 2019. Trident Development LLC. DENSITY/ LOT SIZE— The subject property is 1.89-acres in size or 82,143 square feet. At 75-units, the proposed density is 39.77 units per acre. The City’s PUD code allows for projects that are consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan. St. Anthony Village’s Comprehensive plan calls for this site to be guided for “multi- family-housing” with a maximum density of 40-units per acre. BUILDING HEIGHT— The City’s Planned Development District (PUD) zoning district allows for flexibility on height standards. The developer currently expects the average building height to vary between 45’-55’ (3-4 stories). TRASH— Trash collection will occur in designated trash rooms located within the underground parking garage. Trash rooms will be served by trash chutes accessible to all floors of the building. No trash/refuse area will be proposed outside of the building. FIRE SAFETY— An automatic fire suppression system will be provided throughout the building (NFP-13), which will be monitored 24 hours a day. Developer will work with Fire Department and Building Official to properly locate riser room, mechanical room, fire suppression controls/ systems, fire horn, and a lock box. VEHICLE ACCESS— This project will be served by Kenzie Terrace (visitors, guests, limited staff parking) and Stinson Parkway (deliveries, underground parking access). Internal to the site, care will be placed in the design of the parking lot to allow for the flow and circulation of both residents vehicles and larger vehicles; such as fire apparatus. Developer anticipates working with the Hennepin County Highway Department and the Minneapolis Parks board for appropriate permit/ approval. PARKING— The proposed development will include 76 total parking stalls; which equates to 1.01 stalls per unit. 49 stalls will be located in an a heated, secured, underground parking garage with elevator access. 27 stalls will be located in a surface parking lot. None of the 21 memory care unit residents will have a license to drive. Less than half of the 54 assisted living units will have a license to drive or will own a vehicle (less than 27 units). In summary, residents will use less than 27 of the 76 provided parking stalls. The remaining 49 stalls will be used for visitors, guests, and employees. WALKABILITY & PEDESTRIAN ACCESS— The developer expects the target market for this project to be seniors above 75 of years of age. This project benefits from a pedestrian friendly site design and an ideal site location. The site layout provides immediate access to Stinson Parkway and the Kenzie Terrace sidewalk system. The project design includes ample outdoor patios, balconies, a gazebo, and a memory care walking garden. WATER/ SANITARY SEWER— Water and sewer will be accessed from Kenzie Terrace or Stinson Parkway. Design of the private utility lines will be further refined as this project progresses and more information is available.
