AItCk�IT�C'I'S To: Eric Johnson, City Administrator — Oak Park Heights Scott Richards, City Planner -- Oak Park Heights From: Ron Laughlin, BWBR Architects Date: August 11, 2009 Subject: MCP — Oak Park Heights (MC]F-OPH) Application for CUP MEMORANDUM MCF-Oak Park Heights (MCIF-OPH) is requesting issuance of a conditional use permit for site revisions to include installation of non - conforming security fencing around an existing on -grade electrical transformer, generator, associated switchgear and mechanical cooling tower serving the prison. The intent of the fence is to improve security at mission critical mechanical and electrical equipment located outside the secure perimeter. The fence design is a Minnesota Department of Corrections standard consisting of 12' -0" high chain link fencing topped with a 30" diameter coil of razor ribbon. The fence is designed to match the height and composition of approximately 11,200 lineal feet of existing security fencing forming the secure perimeter of the facility. The combined height of 14'-G" exceeds the 10'- 0" height limit for open wire fences therefore MCF -OPH is requesting a height variance of 4'-6". MCF -OPH is also requesting that the City requirement for screening of the existing on -grade electrical transformer, generator, associated switchgear and mechanical cooling tower serving the prison be waived due to the very limited views to the existing equipment and in order to maintain current visibility around the equipment for security purposes. The location of the equipment and the associated proposed fence enclosure is approximately 150' north of the main administration building and 100' west of the existing perimeter security fencing, which places it roughly 900' east of Osgood Avenue, a forty five mile per hour roadway. Views from the roadway are limited to a very short range of time and distance from a moving vehicle. Further, the west elevation of the enclosure totals 84 lineal feet which is equal to about 4% of the existing west facing security fencing that presently addresses Osgood Avenue. The close proximity of the proposed enclosure to the existing facility perimeter fencing and its plan location near the center of the west elevation means that there is no vantage point along Osgood Avenue from which to view the proposed enclosure without the backdrop of existing perimeter security fencing, resulting in minimal visual impact of screening.
