Memo to Planning Commission/L & W LLC (Deano's Collision) <br />August 28th, 2001 <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />the present use of an auto repair business. In May of 1997, L & W LLC was granted a <br />conditional use permit to operate an auto body repair and to construct a second principal <br />building on the site. <br /> <br />Overview <br /> <br />The request consists of a 7,200 sq. ft. building expansion and a new entrance canopy <br />attached to the existing building. The site currently has two buildings on the property; the <br />Precision Frame & Alignment building at 5,525 sq. ft. and Deano's Collision building at <br />7,200 sq. ft. The proposed building expansion would be attached to the existing Deano's <br />Collision building and be occupied by Deano's Collision. <br /> <br />Design Standards <br /> <br />The proposed building materials, concrete block and metal panel, do not meet the current <br />commercial standards, which state that a minimum of seventy-five percent (75%) of the <br />exterior building finish shall consist of materials comparable in grade and quality to those <br />listed in the ordinance (face brick, natural stone, glass, wood, stucco, aluminum lap siding, <br />masonite, vinyl and specially designed precast concrete units or integrally treated and/or <br />textured concrete block.) <br /> <br />Landscaping <br /> <br />The submitted landscape plan shows perimeter plantings around the entire property. There <br />appears to be adequate amounts of plantings along the north and west property lines, <br />however, along Vance Street there should be more landscaping and/or berming to screen <br />the outdoor storage of vehicles. <br /> <br />Parking and Circulation <br /> <br />Based on the square footage of the expansion and the city's requirement of one parking stall <br />for every 300 sq. ft., a total of 66 parking stalls would be required on site for all three <br />buildings. The proposed layout exceeds this requirement with a total of 96 total stalls. A <br />minimum 10' setback from the property line is also maintained. <br /> <br />The proposed layout provides a second access to the site off of Vance Street. <br /> <br />Three handicap parking stalls are required for the three buildings. The submitted site plan <br />shows only two stalls. One additional handicap parking stall shall be required for the <br />Deano's Collision building. <br /> <br />Sewer and Water <br /> <br />The existing buildings are currently on their own septic system and the building site is within <br />the Urban Service District. With the building expansion, they will be required to connect to <br />sanitary sewer and water. <br /> <br />S:KPLANN1NG\Chris L\City CounciI\CU01-30-CC.DOC <br /> <br /> <br />
