<br />Case File: CU 06-15 <br />Page 3 <br /> <br />Parking and Circulation <br /> <br />The parking requirements for the High School would be 40 stalls. The current parking lot <br />includes 40 marked spaces, three of which are handicapped spaces. The parking meets the <br />ordinance requirements for the High School in itself, but does not take into account the <br />Boys and Girls Club. It is the understanding that the two functions will not operate at the <br />same time, or with limited overlap. With this arrangement, the shared parking would be <br />adequate for each facility independendy. The site plan does indicate a future parking area <br />(proof of parking) and if parking becomes a problem, this area could be constructed into <br />further parking. Parking shall not be allowed on the entrance drive (6th Street) or on Jackson <br />Avenue. If either of these areas becomes a policing issue, the parking lot would be required <br />to be enlarged, as indicated on the site plan. <br /> <br />There is adequate space for a clear bus lane for loading and unloading students which the <br />Boys and Girls Club already provides. <br /> <br />Signage <br /> <br />Spectrum High School is working with the Boys and Girls Club to design signage that <br />coordinates with the current signage. Two signs are being proposed, one wall sign on the <br />east facade that is approximately 3' x 7' in size and a second freestanding sign along the 6th <br />Street/Jackson intersection which is approximately 3' x 4'. <br /> <br />With the PUD zoning, there are no measurable requirements for the number of signs or <br />allowed square footages. Staff would recommend that the signage be looked at as an <br />institutional use in a residential district, which allows one wall sign and one freestanding sign <br />not to exceed 96 sqft in total combined area. <br /> <br />The current freestanding sign is located at the intersection of 6th Street and Jackson Avenue <br />on property which is not the property in which the Boys and Girls Club is located. Off- <br />premise signs are not allowed by City Ordinance. <br /> <br />S:\PLANNING\Case Files\2006\CUP\CU 06-15 Spectrum High School\CU 06-15_CC.doc <br />
