The removal of an existing building and replacement with a three-story building will require an amended PUD/CUP and Design Standards review. With this letter we are notifying you that the application is complete. The City Arborist has additional clarification items that are included in an attached memo. Please provide this information by April 25,2018. We would invite you and your representatives to a staff meeting on April 25, 2018 at 10:30 AM at City Hall to discuss these issues and address any questions you may have. City Staff has discussed connection charges required for this property. The charges would need to be paid in full based upon the current fee schedule for the water and sanitary sewer connections. Connection changes for storm water will not be required. The Planning Commission will consider the application at a meeting scheduled for May 10,2018 at 6:00 PM in the City Hall Council chambers. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes 15.99, Sub. 3(f), the City of Oak Park Heights is herewith extending the period of time for agency/city review of the application for an additional 60 day period(for a total of 120 days from the date of a complete application) inasmuch as the City has determined that additional research and study by the City staff relative to the complexity of the project as proposed will be required. Please contact me with any questions you may have. Sincerely, Scott D.Richards,City Planning Consultant to the City of Oak Park Heights The Planning Company LCC IM � 0/? qF 11 ,14;.„, T City of Oak Park Heights 14168 Oak Park Blvd N.•Box 2007•Oak Park Heights,MN 55082•Phone(651)439-4439•Fax 439-0574 Memorandum To: Eric Johnson, City Administrator Cc: Scott Richards, City Planner, Julie Hultman, Building Official From: Lisa Danielson,Arborist Date: 04/18/2018 Re: Public Storage-Landscape Plan Review I have reviewed the landscape plan submitted by Galloway & Company for the Secure Mini Storage, LP site dated 03/09/2018 and the tree inventory received 04/10/2018. The following includes my comments and/or recommendations: COVER SHEET (CP0.0) The Sheet Index on the Cover Sheet for the DWG No. and Description does not correspond to the labeling on the landscape plan sheets. Please revise the following: 1. The Landscape Plan sheet on the Sheet Index is labeled L1.1 and the page is labeled L1.0 2. The Landscape Notes sheet on the Sheet Index is labeled L1.2 and the page is labeled Landscape Plan L1.1 TREE INVENTORY (L1.0 and Spreadsheet) The tree inventory provided on the spreadsheet is incomplete. The following items must be included to complete the Tree Replacement Calculation: 1. The height of all evergreen trees must be included (NOT DBH) in the tree inventory spreadsheet. The DBH is only used for deciduous trees. The tree inventory spreadsheet received on 04/10/2018 included the DBH for all trees. 2. Please include the following attributes in the tree inventory spreadsheet for each tree:Tree ID, species, size (in caliper inches DBH for deciduous trees and height for evergreen trees), Remove/Protect, Notes (examples: multi-stem, trunk wound, prune, ect.). 3. The Tree Inventory Spreadsheet must correspond with the Site Plan Sheet C1.1 and Sheet L1.0 for the trees marked as removals. Sheet C1.1 shows(20)trees to be removed, Sheet L1.0 shows (15)trees to be removed and the Tree Inventory Spreadsheet includes (15) trees to be removed. 4. The Tree Removal Inventory table included on Sheet L1.0 has Key#'s 5179 and 5181 as trees to be removed but are not labeled on the plan to be removed. 5. Please label and include a tree symbol in the plan sheets for all tree key numbers (Tree ID #'s) included on the Tree Inventory Spreadsheet. This can be done by submitting a separate tree inventory and removal plan sheet or by including them on Sheet L1.0. Trees to be removed vs. protected must be clearly depicted. TREE PROTECTION PLAN The following items must be included on Sheet L1.1 with the Tree Protection Notes: 1. A tree protection plan and diagram must be included to protect the trees listed in the inventory to be preserved which are in close proximity to the construction zone. The diagram must correspond with the Tree Protection Notes. Please also include a protection plan for the areas of existing landscaping that is to remain near the construction area. 2. The trees to be protected must be shown on the plans also. (Please reference Tree Inventory comments above) 3. "No significant trees shall be removed until a tree preservation plan is approved by the City of Oak Park Heights," this must be included in the plans. LANDSCAPE PLAN 1. The overall landscape plan Sheet L1.0 includes (6) six Northwood Red Maple trees to be planted. I would like to recommend a variety of species of trees other than Maple be planted. When the tree inventory information as requested has been resubmitted the tree requirement for replacement trees can be calculated to include what must be planted. 2. All plantings must be planted on private property and not on the City boulevard right-of- way on Memorial Ave N. PLANTING NOTES/PLANTING SPECIFICATIONS The planting notes and planting detail submitted is acceptable. The landscape contractor is required to plant trees and shrubs according to the approved planting detail diagrams and landscape notes submitted with the final approved landscape plan. This will be checked after planting and any deviations from the plans must be corrected before the landscaping will be approved by the City, this needs to be noted in the final plans. Please contact me if you have any questions regarding this landscape plan review. Please feel free to forward my comments to the development team for this project.
