Memo to Mayor and City Council]CU 97-26 October 20, 1997 Page 2 In 1991, the applicant was granted an amendment to allow truck repair as part of their conditional use permit. No new structures were approved at this time. Conditions of the approval included landscaping in the amount of one tree for every 40 linear feet of their lot perimeter. The landscaping included as a condition of the 1991 approval has not been completed. It is suggested that compliance with the conditions of the approval granted in 1991 be made a condition of approval for this application. Overview Proposed Building The applicant is proposing to construct a 50' X 80' pole building. The building will be located to the rear of the lot, behind the existing building. Metal buildings are allowed in industrial districts provided that 25% of the exterior of the building consists of materials included on the list of approved materials found in the landscape ordinance. The applicant should provide elevations that show that the building complies with the 25% requirement. Parking and Access The parking and travel areas are currently surfaced with mix of gravel and crushed asphalt. The 10 foot setback along the north property line has not been maintained. The surfaced area does not include any curb or gutter. The site has a driveway on Jarvis. Staff is suggesting that the parking and travel area between the existing building and Jarvis be paved and include curb and gutter. The 10 foot setback will have to be maintained along all property lines. The pavement should extend back to the front of the building and the front of the fueling station. Seven parking spaces are provided in front of the existing building and 2 handicapped spaces are provided on the south side of the building. The applicant is not proposing any new grading or excavating as part of this project. The site plan does not include any curb and gutter. In order to bring the site up to the current performance standards for industrial sites, staff is suggesting that concrete curb and gutter be included around the perimeter of the pavement in the front of the site. Landscaping There are 4 trees on the property that meet the minimum size requirements of the landscape ordinance. It does not appear that the remainder trees installed as a condition of their 1991 approval meet the minimum size requirements.
