Memoto Mayorand City CounciFCU 01-02 Februa~ 20,2001 Page 2 Overview In 2000, the City Council approved a 6,000 square foot building for Elk River Muffler and Brake on the subject property. The applicant is now looking to receive approval of a conditional use permit to allow a 6,300 square foot addition to the building. Construction has started on Phase 1 of the building. Analysis Access Access is proposed from the temporary driveway approved as part of Phase 1. No parking will be allowed within the Ulysses Street right-of-way along the temporary driveway. Grading, Drainage and Erosion Control See attached Howard R. Green memorandum. The City Engineer notes in his memo that there is not adequate room for the proposed expansion, the pond, and the fire lane. Staff concurs that the proposed expansion should be reduced by 10 feet. Building Elevations The addition is proposed to be constructed of the same painted rock-face block proposed under the original proposal. The blocks will be painted buff color with a red accent stripe near the cornice. Parkinq With the addition, the applicant has indicated nine additional parking stalls, as indicated on the original site plan. This does meet the ordinance requirements. The parking area will need to be surrounded by concrete curb and gutter and the parking stalls will need to be 9 feet x 18 feet. Parking will be permitted on paved surfaces only. Landscaping The proposed landscape plan indicates existing trees to be saved as well as new trees to be planted. The existing trees can be counted for credit, depending on the size and type of tree. Staff will be working with the applicant to ensure that the ordinance requirements have been met based on the amount of credit given for the existing trees. S:\PLANNING~VIICHMC\CCREPRTS\CU01-02.DOC
