. . . Zylstra Harley Davidson/CD 05-04 February 23, 2005 Page 2 Overview The applicant is proposing to pave about 1.5 acres of Outlot B, Hillside Crossing Two for use as a parking lot and a motorcycle training area. The lot is 3.84 acres in size and is undeveloped. In order to construct the parking lot/training area the Hillside Crossing Two PUD agreement has to be amended. The PUD does not allow a parking lot/motorcycle training area to be a principal use on a lot. The paved area will be located on the west side of the lot, adjacent to Evans Street. The east side of the lot will remain undeveloped. The existing trees on the east side of the property will not be disturbed. The final plat approval for Hillside Crossing Two included a condition to maintain a 50 foot no cut zone along the north boundary of Outlot B. According to the applicant's narrative, the paved area will be used for additional parking (42 spaces) and used on weekends during the riding season as a motorcycle riding training area. The property, Outlot B, Hillside Crossing Two, will have to be platted prior to development. Analysis Grading and Drainage The site is fairly level so minimal grading will take place. In accordance with the final plat approval for Hillside Crossing Two, a 50 foot not cut area will have to be maintained along the north boundary of the property. The proposed site plan does not maintain that 50 foot buffer; it will have to be revised so that the buffer is maintained. Additional grading and drainage issues are addressed in the City Engineer's memo. Landscaping The landscape plan includes 30 trees: 13 overs tory, 8 ornamentals and 9 evergreens. The ordinance requires 29 trees. The overs tory trees will be planted along Evans Street; ornamental and evergreen trees will be planted along 196th Avenue, and ornamental trees will be planted in the two parking lot islands. The area between the edge of the paved area and the sidewalk or curb should be sodded and the proposed landscaped areas should be irrigated. Turf should be established and maintained on the remainder of the site that is not wooded or paved. No lighting is proposed. Noise The proposed training area is adjacent to single family residences on the north and east. The applicant should address how they propose to mitigate the noise generated by the motorcycles. Options include limiting the hours when training could take place and/or limiting the number of riders that can be trained at one time. Could quieter motorcycles be used for training purposes? The Commission's recommendation to Council should include a recommendation on mitigating noise. s: \PLANNING \Case FiJes\2005\ CD 05-04 Zylstra Harley Davidson \CDOS-04PC2-23.doc
