The building will be 20 feet x 26 feet (520 square feet) and will be placed near the football practice fields. The project does not require Design Guideline review. The site is zoned 0, Open Space Conservation District in which the High School has been permitted as a conditional use. Any changes to the site or the uses require a CUP. The original CUP for the High School was approved December of 1991. EXHIBITS The review is based upon the following submittals: Exhibit 1: Letter from Raymond Queener, April 9, 2013 — Project Description Exhibit 2: Project Narrative, April 15, 2013 Exhibit 3: Site Plan Exhibit 4: Detailed Site Plan Exhibit 5: Elevation Sketches PROJECT DESCRIPTION The letter from Raymond Queener found as Exhibit 1 describes the project. Additionally, the project narrative found as Exhibit 2 provides additional detail. Page 160 of 200 Mr. Queener's narrative indicates the following: "The Stillwater Area High School football team uses a variety of equipment for its practices, including footballs, marker cones, pads, dummies, ball - throwing machines, water jugs, carts and other practice items. Currently all of this equipment must be hauled out to the field and back, for every practice, from an overcrowded small storage area inside the school. The District is partnering with the Pony Touchdown Club to construct a storage building for all this equipment. it will be centrally located at the comers of the three main practice fields, allowing the equipment to be quickly distributed and stored close to its use. The football booster club is raising funds to construct the building, at no cost to the school district. The proposed location is just east of a fence separating practice fields from a storm water retention pond, well within the interior of the school property. Practice fields are north and east of the site. To the west,' trees and vegetation surrounding a retention pond completely screen the building. Residences south of the property line are also screened by change In grade and trees. Approximately 480 feet to the north is the service drive to the rear loading dock of the school. The building will be slab on grade; rock faced concrete masonry building with concrete aprons on each end and on one side. The building dimensions will be approximately 20 feet by 26 feet, with a 9 foot, 4 inch masonry wall topped by an 8/12 gable. The roof peak will be about 17 feet above slab elevation. The masonry will be natural gray, similar to an existing storage building to the west of the stadium. The building will have electricity, but no water, sewer or plumbing." ISSUES ANALYSIS Comprehensive Plan. The property is designated as School Facilities on the Proposed Land Use Map of the Comprehensive Plan. The proposed addition of the storage building at the High School will be consistent with this land use designation. Zoning. The site is zoned 0, Open Space Conservation District in which the High School has been permitted as a conditional use. Any changes to the site or the uses require a CUP. The criteria found in Section 401.03.A.7 of the Zoning Ordinance must be considered when reviewing a request for this type. Conditional Use Permit. The Planning Commission should consider the following issues and impacts of the proposed project in making its recommendation. 2 Page 161 of 200 The conditional use permit criteria, found in Section 401.03.A.7 of the Zoning Ordinance, are found as follows: 1. Relationship to the specific policies and provisions of the municipal comprehensive plan. 2. The conformity with present and future land uses in the area. 3. The environmental issues and geographic area involved. 4. Whether the use will tend to or actually depreciate the area in which it is proposed. 5. The impact on character of the surrounding area. 6. The demonstrated need for such use. 7. Traffic generation by the use in relation to capabilities of streets serving the property. 8. The impact upon existing public services and facilities Including parks, schools, streets, and utilities, and the City's service capacity. 9. The proposed use's conformity with all performance standards contained herein (i.e., parking, loading, noise, etc.). Comment: The use is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and in conformity with present and future land uses. There should be no environmental issues or impact to surrounding tenants or property owners. The building will be screened by existing vegetation and change in grade. Traffic generation will not be impacted by the addition of this building. There is no impact upon public services and facilities. City Staff sees no issues with the addition of the storage building as currently proposed. Setbacks. The building will be setback approximately 260 feet from the south property line. The building is well within any required set back lines. Building Height. The building will be 17 feet to the peak of the roof or approximately 13 feet to the mid point of the gable.

Oak Park Heights, MN 55082 Dear Mr. Johnson, The Stillwater Area High School football team uses a variety of equipment for its practices, including footballs, marker cones, pads, dummies, ball - throwing machines, water jugs, carts and other practice items. Currently all of this equipment must be hauled out to the field and back, for every practice, from an overcrowded small storage area inside the school. The District is partnering with the Pony Touchdown Club to construct a storage building for all this equipment. It will be centrally located at the corners of the three main practice fields, allowing the equipment to be quickly distributed and stored close to its use. The football booster club is raising funds to construct the building, at no cost to the school district. The proposed location is just east of a fence separating practice fields from a storm water retention pond, well within the interior of the school property. Practice fields are north and east of the site. To the west, trees and vegetation surrounding a retention pond completely screen the building. Residences south of the property line are also screened by a change in grade and trees. Approximately 480 feet to the north is the service drive to the rear loading dock area of the school. The building will be a slab -on- grade, rock -faced concrete masonry building with concrete aprons on each end and on one side. The building dimensions will be approximately 20' x 26', with a 9'-4" high masonry wall topped by an 8/12 gable. The roof peak will be about 17' above slab elevation. The masonry will be natural gray, similar to an existing storage building to the west of the stadium. The building will have electricity, but no water, sewer, or plumbing. The district believes that this storage building will provide the football team easier access to their equipment and allow for a more efficient practice facility. If you have additional questions, please feel free to contact me any time. Sincerely, t Dr. Ra h. • nd C.

Currently all of this equipment must be hauled out to the field and back, for every practice, from an overcrowded small storage area inside the school. The proposed storage budding is centrally located at the corners of the three main practice fields, allowing the equipment to be quickly distributed and stored dose to its use. The football booster dub is raising funds to construct the building, at no cost to the school district. Current and Surrounding Land Use The proposed location is just east of a fence separating practice fields from a storrnwater retention pond, well within the interior of the school property, about 260 feet north of the south property line. Practice fields are north and east of the eke. To the west, trees and vegetation surrounding a retention pond completely screen the building. Residences south of the property line are also screened by a change in grade and by trees and vegetation. To the east, beyond the adjacent practice fields, is the Environmental Learning Center. 480 feet to the north is the service drive to the rear loading dock area of the school. Proposed Use The proposed building win be used for athletic equipment storage, primarily by the football team. Architecture The building will be a slab-on- grade, rods faced concrete masonry building with concrete aprons on each end and on one side. The building dimensions will be approximately 20-0 x 26-0, with a 9-4 high masonry wall topped by an 8/12 gable. The roof peak will be about 17- 0 high above slab elevation. It will have gray fiberglass/asphalt dimensional shingles. The eaves and fascia will be painted cement-fiber or composite boards, with 7-0 x 9-0 overhead garage doors on each end. The end walls of the gable wilt be a translucent polycarbonate for daylight to the interior. The masonry will be natural gray, similar to an existing storage building to the west of the stadium.

Site Design The site is located to best serve the adjacent fields and reduce visibility of the building from all vantage points. It will be graded to ensure stonnwater drains positively away form the building in all directions. In addition to the concrete aprons, the west side closest to the fence will have an exterior slab, draining toward the retention pond. Site Utilities Power to the building will come underground from the nearest available source, likely the existing school, site lighting or the stadium area.
