water to flow into infiltration trenches. Excess water from the infiltration trenches flows into a storm sewer system that directs water to two bio-retention ponds east of the proposed 170th Lane on Outlot A. Staff had a number of comments to the applicant in the letter dated December 19, 2013, regarding stormwater and drainage that must be addressed before issuing the CUP. This requirement is included as a condition for approval. Building and Architecture The facility will be constructed of store front glass, architectural metal panels, and precast concrete panels. The glass and metal are used on the west and north elevations to encompass the showroom, facing Highway 10, and 171st Ave. The precast panels are primarily used on the east and south facades, facing the Ebner's and"170th Lane". Horizontal reveals on the precast panels match the architectural metal panels on the front of the building,providing a consistent building design. Exterior walls are proposed to be 26 feet in height and extend four feet above the roof of the building. The mechanical equipment will be placed in the center of the roof, and the applicant anticipates the four foot parapet will adequately screen the units from the street. Staff has asked for section/elevations showing the location of the mechanical units, and line of sight drawings to verify the screening. These should be provided prior to the building permit being issued. Proposed exterior finishes comply with city ordinances. Landscaping and Lighting The landscape plan includes 23 overstory trees, 13 ornamental trees, and 13 evergreen trees. Prairie grass is used as a ground cover in areas near the infiltration trenches, along the north and south property lines, and sod is used as a groundcover on the remaining areas. Newly landscaped areas include drip irrigation. The lighting plan includes 25 light poles equipped with LED lights. Landscape and photometric plans meet applicable city ordinances.
