Memo to the Mayor and City Council <br />December 16, 1996 <br /> <br />Site Plan <br /> <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />Parking and access <br /> <br />The site has a separate parking area for customers that is located in the front <br />of the building. This area has 14 parking spaces and is surfaced with brick <br />pavers. An additional 14 spaces are proposed along the west property line. <br />There is also an area designated for future additional parking along the west <br />property line. <br /> <br />Access to the maintenance shop is separate from the customer parking area. <br />It is located to the west of the customer access and will be utilized by the <br />trucks entering and leaving the maintenance shop as well as trucks using the <br />gravel pit. This access and the area located between the building and the <br />west property line will have bituminous paving. The access will also have <br />curb and gutter. <br /> <br />There is an access to the Shelly property to the west. This access is used by <br />trucks going from one facility to the other. It is not clear whether the <br />applicant is proposing to pave this access; consideration should be given to <br />paving this access so that it matches the proposed paving on the west side of <br />the building. <br /> <br />The parking and access drives comply with the setback requirements and the <br />site will meet the paving and curbing requirements for the I2 zone. <br /> <br />Landscaping <br /> <br />The applicant is not proposing any additional landscaping. There is a buffer <br />area with mature oaks and poplars along the east property line and <br />landscaping in the front along County Road 33. The area to the west of the <br />truck access does not contain any landscaping. Additional evergreen trees in <br />this area would help screen the gravel pit and the loading scale from County <br />Road 33. <br /> <br />The applicant is proposing to relocate 3 crabapple trees to the area west of <br />the truck access. The proposal complies with the landscaping requirements. <br />No new signage is proposed <br /> <br />Building elevations <br /> <br />The addition to the front will match the existing brick and split faced <br />concrete block. Elevations of the addition to the rear were not provide, this <br />addition should match the exterior of the existing structure. <br /> <br /> <br />
