Memo to Mayor and City Council/CU 99-36 <br />January 18, 2000 <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />Overview <br /> <br />Preliminary and Final Plat <br /> <br />The applicant is proposing to replat Lot 3, Block 2, Elk River Crossing into <br />one lot and an outlot. The platted lot will be 11.62 acres and would contain <br />the Home Depot store and the associated parking. Proposed Outlot A will be <br />2.54 acres and would contain a future freestanding commercial building, <br />future commercial space attached to the Home Depot building and parking. <br />Currently all three of the proposed commercial spaces are located on one lot. <br />At the time the freestanding building or the attached retail space is <br />constructed, Outlot A will be platted. It is likely that Outlot A will be platted <br />into 2 lots, one for the freestanding building and one for the attached retail <br />space. <br /> <br />Grading, drainage and utility issues are addressed in the City Engineer's <br />memo. <br /> <br />Park and recreation fees and storm water management fees were paid when <br />the property was platted as Elk River Crossing; therefore, no additional fees <br />will be collected with this plat. <br /> <br />Development Plans <br /> <br />The applicant is proposing to construct a 120,000 square foot home <br />improvement store with 11,000 square feet of fenced outdoor storage. The <br />outdoor storage area will also be utilized as part of the garden center during <br />the spring and summer. <br /> <br />The site plan was compared to the development plan approved as part of the <br />conditional use permit for the PUD. The approved development plan included <br />an 112,000 square foot home improvement building with 32,000 square feet <br />of attached retail space. The proposed plan shows a 120,327 square foot home <br />improvement store and 11,585 square feet of attached retail space. The <br />proposed plan has 12,000 square feet less retail space than what was <br />approved in the development plan for the PUD. <br /> <br />At this time the City Council is being asked to consider only the 120,327 <br />square foot Home Depot, it's associated parking and landscaping. The builder <br />of the attached retail space will have to apply for a separate conditional use <br />permit if and when they move forward with construction. <br /> <br />S:XPLANNINGXSCOTT\CU9936CC.DOC <br /> <br /> <br />
