Zane Street Commons <br />Case File: CU 08-17 Eazl Hohlen <br />Page 4 <br />Again to be consistent with the Elk River Crossing PUD, each tenant is allowed two wall signs. The <br />applicant has proposed a monument sign that is 30 feet in height. To be consistent with the Elk <br />River Crossing, one monument sign is allowed for the site, with a maximum of 100 square feet and <br />10 feet in height. The council can approve the height as proposed since this is a PUD. The <br />monument sign is proposed to be on the west side of the site, to be visible from Highway 169. Sign <br />permits are required for all signs. <br />Service doors/Mechanical Equipment <br />The submitted elevations indicate there will be service garage doors on the west side of the building <br />facing Highway 169. According to the PUD loading docks and mechanical equipment should be <br />incorporated into the overall design of the building and screened from view of adjoining properties <br />and streets. It should be noted that the buildings will use parapets to hide the roof top units. The <br />overhead doors cause some concern, as while there prevalent in a commercial setting, they cannot <br />be screened using landscaping, due to the power transmission lines. Staff would recommend no <br />overhead doors for these buildings. <br />Comprehensive Plan <br />The subject site has a comprehensive plan designation as Highway Business. The Highway Business <br />land use category is the most intensive for of commercial development. Businesses in this category <br />may be the largest both in terms of size and traffic generation. Highway Business land uses follows <br />the Highway 169 and Highway 10 corridors. The use of the property is consistent with the <br />comprehensive plan. <br />Utilities <br />The site will be served by municipal utilities. Due to the depth of sanitary sewer adjacent to the site <br />Zane street will need to be temporarily closed. <br />Landscapine <br />No landscaping plan has been provided. A landscape plan, prepared by a landscape architect, will <br />need to be approved prior to release of a building permit. Section 30-934 will govern. <br />Motion by Second by Vote <br />FOllow Up <br />S:\PLANNING MAIN\Case Files\CUP\CU 08-17 Zane Street Commons\staff report 8-12-08.doc <br />
