CASE # REQUEST FOR SITE PLAN APPROVAL OF HAUSER PROPERTIES BUILDING; CASE OF HAUSER PROPERTIES By: Mark S. Banwart, Community Development Director Background: The proposed site plan consists of a masonry building measuring 80' x 50' (4,000 square feet). The intended use of the building is a liquor store. The building would be located on Lot 2, Block 1, of the proposed Hauser Addition. The proposed project is currently located in a B-1 Business District which will most likely change to a Rural Business District in the near future. Access to the site is proposed to be from both Armstrong Blvd. N.W. as well as 146th Avenue N.W. For your information, enclosed are the following items: A) B) C) D) E) F) G) Site location map Proposed site plan (A) City Engineer's Review (February 27, 1990) Letter to Anoka County DOT (March 16, 1990) City Engineer's Review (March 21, 1990) Letter to Anoka County DOT (April 2, 1990) City Engineer's Review (April 24, 1990) Observations: On February 12, 1990, the City of Ramsey received an application and site plan from Hauser Properties. On March 6, 1990, the Ramsey Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed the site plan and the City Engineer's review dated February 27, 1990. A lengthy discussion ensued regarding proposed accesses to the development. The applicant is requesting to retain the two existing accesses onto County Road #83 and creating two new accesses onto 146th. The City Engineer has recommended eliminating one of the accesses to County Road #83 and relocating the access onto 146th, 150 feet from the centerline of County Road #83. A discussion ensued regarding possibilities for future expansion and development of the subject property and whether or not there is sufficient area to provide for the required parking. On March 27, 1990, the Ramsey City Council tabled this case until certain issues are resolved including street access and traffic concerns. Planning and Zoning Commission Recommendations (as presented on March 27, I990): The Ramsey Planning and Zoning Commission recommends City Council approval of the site plan for the proposed Hauser Properties building with accesses as proposed by the applicant. In addition, an amendment was made to require that the northerly access on C.S.A.H. County Road #83 have a south-bound right turn lane and a north-bound by-pass lane and that "No Left Turn" signs be posted in the north-bound lane at the southerly access.
