Madigan PROJECT: Credit Union Branch Office DATE: January 18, 1990 SUMMARY INTRODUCTION 1. The applicant is requesting approval of plans for a one - story, 5,400 square -foot office building. The building would have a brick exterior with a dryvit fascia. The colors are not yet determined. 2. The applicant is also requesting approval of a conditional use permit since code requires CUP issuance for any construction in a M -1, light manufacturing district within 350 feet of a residential zone. The proposed building would be 160 feet from the R -3, multiple - dwelling residential zone to the south. BACKGROUND On December 8, 1989, the City of Maplewood approved a lot division to create this site. CRITERIA FOR CUP APPROVAL Section 36 -442 requires that in order to approve a CUP, findings one through nine, as listed in the resolution on page 7 must be made. Design Review Board review is required since the site plan would be part of the CUP approval. DISCUSSION (CUP and LANDSCAPING) Staff finds no problem with the proposed office building use or the setback from the adjacent R -3 zone. Given the fact that this zoning would allow light manufacturing uses, the proposed credit union would be more compatible with the town homes to the south. The landscape plan should be revised to add evergreen trees along the front berm to soften the view of the parking lot from the street and the town homes to the south. - RECOMMENDATION 1.

These break down as follows: Design Reviews (site plans, building design and landscaping) 36 Sign Reviews 12 Code Amendments 1 Variances 3 Miscellaneous 6 Total 58 For comparison, the 1986 year -end total was 46, the 1987 total 45 and the 1988 total was 47. ATTENDANCE 110 Board Member Meetings Attended (of 17) Don Moe 15 Tom Deans 12 Mary Erickson 15 Roger Anitzberger 15 Mike Holder 16 Dan Molin 16 COMMENTS 1989 was a record year, based on the number of projects reviewed. The primary issue with most reviews was that of the quality of building exteriors. The Board spent considerable time at their meetings striving to upgrade the aesthetics of many of the building proposals. The subject of minimum building design /materials, therefore, will be a key issue in 1990. The Board will be working on establishing specific minimum design criteria in the upcoming year for submittal to the City Council. TEANNREP 411 1
