Mkhad Gaffron <br />Page 4 of 6 Re: PUD Concept Plan Stage Submittal Requirements <br />_______________________April 17.2002 <br />A statement of the estimated tote/ number of dwelling units proposed for the <br />PUD and a tabulation of the proposed approximate allocations of land use <br />expressed in acres and as a percentage of the total project area, which shall <br />include at least the following: <br />L Area developed to residential uses. <br />Orono VillsQG would includo 235 nrisrkGt rsto honriGS In 3 v3ilGty of housino <br />styiGS. ApproximatGly 42 acros of this 51-acrG parcGl will 5g dGvotGd to <br />townhomGs, rowhousGS and thG Lofts. ThG ramaindGr of thG site is dedicated <br />to streets and limited, neighborhood commercial. <br />a. Area developed to residential by building type. <br />•Approximately 30 acres of property north of Kelley Parkway are planned for <br />41 townhomes. 8 acres of property in the center of the site are planned for 82 <br />rowhouses, and 4 acres of property in the southwest comer of the site are <br />planned for 112 units in the Lofts. <br />Hi. Area devoted to common open space. <br />We have provided a Town Square in the commercial area and a Village <br />N-.reen near the Lofts. Both of these common areas are intended to <br />encourage use by the residents of the neighborhood and visitors. The Town <br />Square will be a community gathering space where Orono residents can <br />linger over a cup of coffee or Ice cream and visit with friends and neighbors. <br />The Orono Village association would maintain both of these areas, which <br />total approximately 0.6 acres. Our concept plan and sketch plat includes <br />common lots over the wetland areas and surrounding the townhomes. as well <br />as outlets for the private drives and private streets. The total area for the <br />common open space areas, common lots and outlets is 28.5 acres. <br />iv. Area devoted to public open space. <br />No public open space is proposed. The current plan shows a large portion of <br />the site as common open space with private trails and sidewalks throughout <br />the development. While these trails will be maintained by the Orono Village, <br />they will be open to use by the public. Given the proximity of a number of <br />public spaces at the City Hall complex and school facilities, a large public <br />open space within this development would be redundant. However, we have <br />provided public trails along Kelley Parkway. Willow Drive and Highway 12 <br />Additionally, we have retained large wetland areas within the development <br />and have provided private trails around those features. The private trails and <br />sidewalks within Orono Village will be maintained by the HOA. <br />/• # <br />I • • <br />• ^ C <br />A <br />V <br />•- * •* <br />650 BUTLER NORTH BUILDING 510 FIRST AVENUE NORTH MINNEAPOLIS.
