• The current requirements establish a sign setback of 3'4" from the outer lease limits (wall). Typically, this "outer limit"happens to be a brick column. However, with smaller bays there is now the opportunity to create two tenant spaces within each column. The proposed deviation from the current requirements is the sign setback from the common wall within the columns. It is requested the sign setback be scaled back to 2 feet. The overall square footage will not change; rather, it will allow flexibility with sign location and style of sign. It is staff's understanding Kraus-Anderson would like to utilize this same standard on Building B and C when necessary. • Site Plan 1. The new retaining wall on the south side of the service drive should consist of a similar block material used on the retaining walls south of Target. 2. It was not clear on the site plans how high this retaining wall would have to be. Therefore, a detail should be submitted along with the final set of plans. Attached, is a sign package proposed for building "E". This package is slightly different • than building's B and C. The primary difference occurs on the smaller signs where it becomes difficult to maintain 3' feet 4" inches from each edge of leased space. Staff will discuss this further at Tuesday's meeting. • Building Architecture 1. The building materials appear to be similar to Building B and C next to Target. This will strengthen the continuity of the project's design. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended the Planning Commission recommend approval of the conditional use permit for Kraus-Anderson of Elk River, Inc., allowing construction of a 16,000 square foot multi-tenant retail building in Elk Park Center Planned Unit Development, with the following conditions: 1. Comments stated in the staff report dated May 23, 1995 being incorporated into revised set of plans and submitted for final approval prior to issuance of the building permit. • s:planning:pc:cu95-07
