Memo to Planning Commission/CU 01-11 <br /> February 22,2001 <br /> Page 2 <br /> • one space per three students. The current parking lot has 242 spaces; which <br /> provides parking for 726 students, again based on the student-parking ratio. <br /> The City Engineer has reviewed this request and his comments are outlined in <br /> the attached letter to Robert Baker. Staff would recommend that these <br /> comments be incorporated into the final approval for the expanded parking <br /> facility. <br /> In order to offset the loss of green space due to the parking expansion, the <br /> school district intends on removing a portion of the parking located north of the <br /> high school along Jackson Avenue (see attached aerial photo). <br /> Recommendation <br /> Over the years, the City has received a number of complaints regarding <br /> excessive off-site parking by students attending Elk River Senior High. The <br /> proposed expansion will provide on-site parking spaces for students as well as <br /> faculty. Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend approval <br /> of this request to the City Council with one condition: <br /> 1. All comments of the City Engineer be incorporated into the plan. <br /> • <br /> • <br /> S:\PLANNING\MICHMC\PLREPRTS\CU01-11.DOC <br />
