TCF CUP 95 -20 <br />October 24, 1995 <br />------------------ ------ <br />Page 3 <br />4. The exit drive from the drive up windows to the private road <br />intersects at an angle less than 900 rather than a preferred 90 <br />degree intersection. Furthermore, this driveway will function as <br />an exit only, therefore it can be reduced in width to roughly 20 <br />feet, further encouraging the one way nature of the driveway. <br />5. The westerly entrance drive off of Freeport Avenue should line <br />up with the proposed driveway which will extend south of <br />Freeport Avenue to access the Cub Foods site. The proposed <br />driveway is close to the appropriate alignment, however it needs <br />to be slightly adjusted so the center lines of each driveway <br />match up. <br />6. The private driveway along the east side of the site actually <br />occurs on Lot 1 of Block 1, Elk Park Center Third Addition. <br />This driveway will provide access not only to the TCF site, but <br />also the property to the north. With the redesigning of the <br />parking area and providing another access point onto the <br />private road, the road will have to be built far enough north to <br />accommodate the traffic demands of this development. <br />• C. Landscaping <br />1. The submitted landscape plan has provided adequate numbers <br />to meet the city's zoning ordinance and requirements set forth in <br />the Elk Park Center Planned Unit Development Agreement. <br />However, additional trees (conifers) may be necessary along <br />Jackson Road to enhance the screening towards the residential <br />area. <br />2. The existing trees along Jackson Road should be protected <br />during the construction and incorporated into the final <br />landscape plan. <br />3. Some of the proposed plant material should be relocated to the <br />Freeport Avenue side of the site to provide a balance of the <br />landscape plan. Relocating some overstory trees would satisfy <br />staff concern. <br />4. A 3 to 5 foot high berm with some shrubs should be incorporated <br />along the south side of the drive up window to help screen and <br />• soften the visual impact of this large vehicle use area. This type <br />
