Memo to the Planning Commission/CU 97-1 <br /> February 25, 1997 <br /> Page 3 <br /> • 1. All of the existing landscaping that will be disturbed as part of the <br /> addition be replaced. <br /> 2. Awnings along the north side of the wall not project into the drive <br /> aisle. <br /> Staff recommends denying Pinnacle Foods, LP.'s request to install a 70 ft. <br /> high flagpole based on the following: <br /> 1. The concept plans for the Elk River Development PUD were approved <br /> with building heights, signage and other structures, i.e., flagpoles, <br /> • reduced in height to minimize the impact to the residential area to the <br /> east. <br /> 2. There was public opposition to a flagpole exceeding 35 ft. in height at <br /> both the Planning Commission meeting on July 25, 1995, and the City <br /> Council meeting on August 21, 1995. <br /> 3. The 35 ft. high flagpole was originally approved in accordance with the <br /> C3 (Highway Business) maximum sign height. Given the location of <br /> the Elk River Center PUD and its elevation above the highway and <br /> • proximity to the residential, height restrictions and other measures to <br /> minimize the impact to the residential area were taken into <br /> consideration as part of the planned unit development. <br /> • <br /> s:\planning\pc\cu97-1.doc <br />
