The site will be located west of the existing Municipal Parking Ramp between Sunwood <br />Drive and Civic Center Drive. <br />Preliminary Plat: The City has received proposed- preliminary plat for COR One consisting of one (1) <br />sheet. Specifics of this proposal will be reviewed separately. City Staff does note, however, that <br />obligations from that application must be met before the City will issue any Building Permits for the <br />proposed site plan. Drainage and utility easements must be dedicated along the right-of-way and side lots <br />consistent with the. proposed setbacks of the structure. Separate easements are also required for the <br />proposed sidewalk that will be installed outside the right-of-way on private property, and the applicant is <br />responsible for the drafting and recording of such documents. Cross access/public roadway easements <br />must also be dedicated over the drive aisle and pedestrian ways that serve the municipal parking ramp that <br />cuts through this proposed parcel. Existing easements from the underlying subdivision(s) must be <br />maintained on the proposed COR ONE plat, or altemative accommodations made (vacations and/or <br />infrastructure relocations and new easements dedications that may be necessary). <br />Zoning: The site is zoned TC-1, a mixed -use core sub -district of The COR. This area is intended to <br />provide a mix of residential, retail, service, professional, community service, recreational and similar uses <br />on every block near, and within easy walking distance of the rail station. The proposed facility is a <br />permitted use in this District. <br />69 <br />
