This project will consist of a new main entrance vestibule in the center of the building and a 9,228 square foot building addition which will serve as space for new classrooms. In order to proceed with this project the applicant needs to receive design review approval. Recommended Motion: Motion to approve the design plans date-stamped August 13, 2019 for the building addition at Harambee Elementary School located at 30 County Road B East. Approval is subject to the applicant doing the following: 1. Repeat this review in two years if the city has not issued a building permit for this project. 2. All requirements of the fire marshal and building official must be met. 3. The city engineer requires that a grading and erosion control permit is applied for and issued for all land disturbance and site grading associated with the project. 4. The applicant is required to meet the city’s tree preservation ordinance. Before a building permit is issued, the applicant must submit for staff approval a landscape plan that details trees to be removed and location of replacement trees. 5. Prior to the issuance of a building permit, the applicant shall provide the city with cash escrow or an irrevocable letter of credit in the amount of 150 percent of the cost of the exterior landscaping, including the rain garden. 6. Prior to the issuance of a building or grading permit, the applicant must receive approval from the watershed district for this project. 7.

The city deemed the applicant’s application complete on August 13, 2019. The initial 60-day review deadline for a decision is October 12, 2019. As stated in Minnesota State Statute 15.99, the city is allowed to take an additional 60 days if necessary to complete the review. Background Site Plan The applicant is proposing a 9,228 square foot addition to the northeast corner of the existing building. The building addition will require the shifting of an existing rain garden and drive lane further north and the elimination of 24 parking spaces. The applicant is working with the watershed district to ensure the new rain garden is fully restored. This project will also require the applicant to meet all of the city’s stormwater management requirements. The parking lot that is losing the 24 spaces is typically not used on a day-to-day basis. The property will still have 149 parking spaces throughout the site, exceeding code requirements. Architectural For the building addition, the applicant is proposing to use face brick, metal coping and metal panels. The face brick and metal coping will match the materials and color of the existing building. The proposed metal panels would be a new material introduced to the building but would match the color of the existing EIFS surface of the existing building. Landscaping The project will cause for the removal of four trees from the site. The number of trees being removed is less than 20 percent of the number of trees on site meaning the applicant is required to replace the trees on a one-to-one basis. Before any permits are issued, the applicant will be required to submit a landscaping plan to the city showing where at least four new trees will be planted. The applicant’s plans do show new shrubs being added to the remodeled front entrance and on the west side of the building addition.
