Lefebvre Companies Page 3 July 23, 1996 Lefebvre Companies' development plans will be approximately 3 acres in size, exceeding the minimum lot size in the light industrial zoning district. The balance of the plat will be comprised of two outlots. Outlot A lies west of Ulysses Street and includes a 75 foot gas line easement and the balance of Lefebvre Companies' property. Outlot B is approximately 6 acres in size and has the possibility of a one acre lot being created just north of the proposed lot fronting on Ulysses Street and another larger lot having access on 171 st Avenue. As part of the development to serve Lefebvre Companies, various road improvements will be necessary. First of all, 171 st Avenue will need to be upgraded from Highway 10 to the eastern limits of the plat. This improvement will include a 52 foot wide street with curb and gutter designed for four lanes of traffic as it extends east of Highway 10. As shown in the draft transportation plan, 171 st Avenue will be a minor arterial extending from Highway 10 eastward across the railroad tracks, then turning north to eventually connect with 173rd Avenue and, ultimately, County Roads 13 and 12. The second street improvement will include the extension of Ulysses Street from its termination in Rail 10 Industrial Park southward to 171 st Avenue. This street connection will provide additional access opportunities for the existing businesses in Rail 10 Industrial Park to 171 st Avenue as well as the opportunity for Lefebvre Companies traffic to utilize 171 st Avenue or 173rd Avenue. The Ulysses Street connection is also important from a public safety stand point as it will provide a secondary access for emergency vehicles. Please refer to Terry Maurer's memo for additional information. Conditional Use Permit As with all planned unit developments, a conditional use permit is required to facilitate the review and approval of proposed development plans. Lefebvre Companies is proposing a 16,380 square foot trucking facility which has approximately 4,500 square feet of office space and 11,880 square feet dedicated to a truck warehouse. The truck warehouse will be comprised of four separate bays. These bays will generally be used for storage, a wash bay, and two service bays. Three of the four service bays will have the opportunity to be entered from either side of the building which allows for flexibility with the on site circulation. The site plan's general layout consists of two entrance points into the facility. One off of 171 st Avenue and another off of Ulysses Street. The parking area in front of the building along 171 st Avenue as well as the parking area along Ulysses Street will need to be paved and bounded by concrete curb and gutter. This is a standard requirement in the industrial area and is also recommended for this development. Lefebvre Companies is proposing to have a gravel surface to the rear of the building that will consist of a chipped granite for the storage and parking of tractor trailer trucks. There is also an on site fuel tank and dispensing pump to serve vehicles associated with the business.
