�° "` �' Ms. Melanie Curtis � <br /> January 18, 2011 - <br /> Page 2 of 3 <br /> Site Description <br /> The total site comprises 10.36 acres consisting of 3.88 acres of wetland and 6.48 acres of upland. <br /> The lowest part of the site is within the wetland at the southwest corner of the site at approximately <br /> elevation 955.4. The site rises gently beyond the wetland and toward the north until it reaches the toe of <br /> the steeper slope along the north edge of the site at about elevation 968. The site rises steeply from the <br /> toe of this slope to the adjoining Luce Line Trail at approximately elevation 994. <br /> The new site access is placed at the existing entrance located on Wayzata Boulevard. A new paved <br /> driveway is constructed on the same alignment as the existing driveway and connects from the site <br /> access to the new parking area. The new paved parking area contains three accessible parking spaces <br /> A and 47 standard spaces for a total of 50 surface parking spaces serving staff and visitors. We propose to <br /> minimize the use of curb and gutter on the driveway and the new parking area to reflect the site's natural <br /> character. <br /> There is an approximately 200 square foot storage building on site to the north of the parking lot and just <br /> east of the building, this is for storage of lawn equipment. Trash will be internal to the building and the <br /> dumpster will be rolled out on trash pick-up days only. There is a drive to the north of the canopy that will <br /> be for trash and loading. <br /> A two-sided monument sign is proposed to be constructed at the new entrance within the Wayzata � <br /> Boulevard right of way contingent on permission from Hennepin County. As an alternate to this location <br /> we are proposing that the sign be located in the northeast corner of the site. <br /> Minimal grading is required to construct the project. A portion of the slope at the north side of the site is <br /> proposed to be re-graded to a 3:1 slope to gain separation from the proposed building. An approximately <br /> 200 foot long retaining wall at the north side of the building ranges from zero to eight feet in height. The <br /> building pad, driveway and parking area will be raised approximately two feet. <br /> Stormwater will be infiltrated and treated at numerous locations around the site in naturalized basins <br /> before discharge into the wetlands. <br /> The wetlands on the site will not be directly impacted by the project construction. <br /> Project Description <br /> The proposed project consists of 63 total senior living dwelling units configured as follows: <br /> Description Area (Sq Ft) First Floor Second Floor <br /> Memo Care <br /> Studio 355 19 0 <br /> Enhanced Care �������� <br /> Studio 355 5 0 , <br /> One Bedroom 559 6 0 <br /> Assisted Livin JAN 19 2011 <br /> Studio 355 0 8 <br /> One Bedroom 559 0 23 CITY OF Q���p <br /> One Bedroom + 706 0 2 <br /> TOTALS 30 33 <br /> The proposed two-story building is built on concrete foundations and slab with wood framed walls, floors <br /> and roofs. The exterior is finished with a combination of stone and fiber cement siding. The roof will be <br /> finished with dimensional asphalt shingles. The building is fully sprinkled. <br /> � <br /> � KRAUS-ANDERSON� <br /> :f <br />
