<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Memo to Mayor and City CounciUCU 99-18 <br />June 21, 1999 <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />The clinic is one component of a three part redevelopment plan for the mall. <br />The two other components include a drugstore/retail building in the <br />northeast corner and a restaurant/retail space connected to the north end of <br />the building housing Marcus Theaters. The portion of the mall north of the <br />theaters will be demolished. The property will also be replatted so each of the <br />new uses will be located on it's own lot. <br /> <br />Access and Parking <br /> <br />There will be a main access drive through the center of the plaza. Access into <br />the clinic site will be from this main drive. The parking area for the clinic <br />will be separated from the main drive by a landscaped median. There will be <br />4 access points into the clinic parking area. <br /> <br />Parking is the main issue with the mall redevelopment plan. Parking for the <br />entire mall will be reviewed. With the current configuration, the mall is 92 <br />spaces short. With the proposed redevelopment plan the parking situation is <br />worse; the proposed plan is 279 spaces short, 187 more than the existing <br />situation. <br /> <br />Included in the packet is information regarding the compatibility of the <br />proposed uses and the theater. It is the developers intention to show the <br />proposed uses are compatible with the theater and will offset the loss of <br />parking spaces. <br /> <br />The clinic has provided more than the required parking spaces. The parking <br />requirement for North Memorial is 200 spaces; they are providing 221 spaces. <br />Phase 1 will require 140 spaces; with the phase 2 expansion, an additional 60 <br />spaces are required for a total of 200 spaces. While the expansion will <br />eliminate 56 spaces, the clinic will still have enough parking to provide the <br />required 200 spaces. <br /> <br />Overall parking for the plaza, as well as the parking for the clinic, will be <br />impacted by the phase 2 expansion to the clinic. The plan which is being <br />presented will be 279 spaces short of what is required. With phase 1, the <br />plaza will be 163 spaces short; phase 2 will increase the shortage to 279 <br />spaces. <br /> <br />S: \PLANNING\SCOTT\CU9918CC.DOC <br />
