Memo to Planning Commission/L&W LLC (Deano's Collision) August 286,2001 Page 2 ______ III the present use of an auto repair business. In May of 1997, L & W LLC was granted a conditional use permit to operate an auto body repair and to construct a second principal building on the site. Overview The request consists of a 7,200 sq. ft. building expansion and a new entrance canopy attached to the existing building. The site currently has two buildings on the property;the Precision Frame &Alignment building at 5,525 sq. ft. and Deano's Collision building at 7,200 sq. ft. The proposed building expansion would be attached to the existing Deano's Collision building and be occupied by Deano's Collision. Design Standards The proposed building materials,concrete block and metal panel,do not meet the current commercial standards, which state that a minimum of seventy-five percent (75%) of the exterior building finish shall consist of materials comparable in grade and quality to those listed in the ordinance (face brick,natural stone,glass,wood,stucco,aluminum lap siding, masonite,vinyl and specially designed precast concrete units or integrally treated and/or textured concrete block.) Landscaping • The submitted landscape plan shows perimeter plantings around the entire property. There appears to be adequate amounts of plantings along the north and west property lines, however,along Vance Street there should be more landscaping and/or berming to screen the outdoor storage of vehicles. Parking and Circulation Based on the square footage of the expansion and the city's requirement of one parking stall for every 300 sq. ft., a total of 66 parking stalls would be required on site for all three buildings. The proposed layout exceeds this requirement with a total of 96 total stalls. A minimum 10'setback from the property line is also maintained. The proposed layout provides a second access to the site off of Vance Street. Three handicap parking stalls are required for the three buildings. The submitted site plan shows only two stalls. One additional handicap parking stall shall be required for the Deano's Collision building. Sewer and Water The existing buildings are currently on their own septic system and the building site is within • the Urban Service District. With the building expansion,they will be required to connect to sanitary sewer and water. S:\PLANNING\Chris L\CU01-30.DOC
