Memo to the Planning Commission/CU 97-10 Page 2 <br /> April 22, 1997 <br /> • use permit. <br /> Overview <br /> The request consists of constructing a second free-standing building of <br /> approximately 5,525 sq. ft. The existing building on site is approximately <br /> 7,200 sq. ft. and is the current location of Precision Frame and Alignment <br /> and Deano's Auto Collision. The proposed building would be occupied by <br /> Precision Frame and Alignment, allowing Deano's Auto Collision to expand <br /> in the existing building. <br /> Parking and Circulation <br /> Based on the square footage of both buildings and the city's requirement of <br /> one parking stall for every 300 sq. ft., a total of 42 parking stalls would be <br /> required on site. The parking as shown on the plan raises the following <br /> concerns: <br /> • The parking design does not meet the dimensional requirements for <br /> designing a parking lot. <br /> • The parking stalls adjacent to the existing building do not meet the <br /> • dimensional requirements. <br /> • It is unclear whether the required number of parking stalls may be <br /> provided on site if designed according to the required dimensional <br /> requirements. <br /> In addition to the number of parking stalls, adequate handicap stalls will <br /> also need to be provided. According to the ordinance two handicap stalls are <br /> required. <br /> The proposed plans show parking along 173rd Avenue at a dimension less <br /> than 10' feet from the property line. If the variance request to the parking <br /> setback requirements is not granted, the site plan will need to be adjusted to <br /> meet the required 10' parking setback. <br /> At the time 173rd Avenue is upgraded, there is a possibility additional right- <br /> of-way will be needed to make the necessary road improvements. As a long <br /> term measure, all parking lot setbacks should be taken from the planned <br /> right-of-way which is expected to be a total of 80'. Given the existing right-of- <br /> way of 66' (33' each half), it is expected an additional 7 feet will ultimately be <br /> required off of this property. Therefore, in order to meet the ultimate setback <br /> • <br /> f:\shrdoc\planning\pc\cu97-10.doc <br />
