CITY OF ORONO <br />RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL <br />NO. 0 <br />D. Environmental Considerations, Site Planning & Amenities; Transportation, <br />14. Landscaping. The preliminary landscaping plan will be evaluated for compliance <br />with the very detailed RPUD landscaping requirements. The preliminary landscape <br />plans (Exhibit A8) indicate 58 trees will be planted within the development area, in <br />a variety of deciduous, coniferous and ornamental species. <br />15. Parking Lot and driving lane setback. The Ordinance requires a setback of 20 <br />feet for drive lanes and parking areas. The driveway lane around the building, <br />provided emergency access and on site circulation encroached in this setback as <br />close as 8 feet to the side property line. The Council finds that this is acceptable <br />given the size of the building and the proposed use. <br />16. Building Height. The building height as shown on the plan is 30 feet 1 and '/4 <br />inches, higher than the maximum permitted by ordinance. The final grading plan <br />may impact the defined height of the building. The Council finds allowing up to <br />32 feet in defined height appropriate given the size and width of the building, the <br />desire to retain a residential style roof structure, and the fact that the building is two <br />stories, fewer than the maximum 3. <br />17. Hardcover. By virtue of the RPUD zoning, per 78-1701(4)(a) the property is <br />assigned to Hardcover Protection Tier 4, which allows up to 50% hardcover of the <br />gross lot area. The proposed hardcover is 63%, due in part to the complex <br />residential use, and need for onsite circulation. The Council finds flexibility is <br />appropriate given the high intensity uses surround the property (Industrial and <br />Wayzata Blvd to the south, Condominiums and Public Works facility to the North.) <br />If the parcel was not zoned RPUD, there would be no hardcover limitation due to <br />the site distance from lakes. <br />18. Easements Required. Standard perimeter drainage and utility easements around <br />all property boundaries will be required. Additional easement or property may be <br />requested by Hennepin County to permit expansion of the stormwater pond east of <br />the site, for Hennepin Council retention and treatment needs. <br />19. Trail. A trail was envisioned along the south property line, to be constructed by the <br />developer as part of the global Stonebay development. If Hennepin County <br />provides a trail as part of the Wayzata Boulevard project, and requires city easement <br />or financial support, the developer, in lieu of providing a private trail alongside a <br />public trail, will provide the city's share of the financial contribution, not to exceed <br />Page 7 <br />
