White Bear Lake School District Elementary School Page 6 The short stub street extended from 157th Way N was originally intended to provide one of two access points to the property; however this will no longer be the case with the proposed school. Since this access point will no longer be used to access the site, the stub street will need to be removed and restored with turf and the proposed trail extend up to 157th Way with some curb improvements. The City may vacate the right of way in this location, while maintaining public drainage and utility easements for the sewer and watermain lines and a trail easement in this location. Landscaping The landscape plan exceeds the ordinance requirements. The landscape plan indicates that the site will be well landscaped. Multiple varieties of trees and shrubs are provided around the building and on the property. Staff recommends that the landscape plan be revised to include additional landscaping around the parking areas and driveways, as required by ordinance. Staff will continue to work with the applicant on a revised landscape plan to be reviewed and approved by staff. Drainage/Grading Aside from some technical items outlined by the City Engineer, drainage for the site complies with the City's stormwater management plan, and coordinates well with surrounding development. New stormwater ponds are proposed for the site west of the school. Utilities Municipal sewer and water are available to the subject property. C. Conclusions Staff has reviewed the site plan, CUP, and property line adjustment for consistency with the applicable standards outlined in the Comprehensive Land Use Regulations and finds that the applications are consistent with the standards. 4. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the site plan, CUP, and property line adjustment for the White Bear Lake School District. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Location Map 2.
