FILE NO: 798.02 - 04.17
Dear Mr. Nolde:
The City of Oak Park Heights is in receipt of your application submitted on February 9,
2005 seeking consideration by the City of your project. With this letter, we are notifying
you that your application is deemed incomplete and will not be considered by the
Planning Commission at their March meeting. The application materials will be returned
to you. The application is being rejected for the following reasons:
1. No application, narrative or required application and escrow fees were submitted
with the plans.
2. The plans include areas along Oakgreen Avenue that are not owned or
controlled by the applicant.
3. A traffic study should be submitted with the application.
4. The lighting, landscape and signage plans were not submitted or not complete
enough for a thorough review.
5. Submittal of required TIF materials. Eric Johnson, city Administrator, will send
you a letter outlining what is required for a complete submittal.
In order to discuss this potential application, staff requests that you attend a meeting on
Wednesday, March 2, 2005 at 10:00 AM at city Hall. staff has expressed concern with
the design of the development including proximity of units to the roadways, access
issues and the overall density. These issues should be discussed before an application
is resubmitted for this project. In addition, staff requests that the name of the
development be changed from Oakgreen village so as not to create confusion with
previous project review and approvals.
