-312- Review Letter: RAJA Development September 6, 2002 Page 2 of 4 Utilities: The facility will be served by municipal sewer and wate~ facilities Setbacks: The building location exceeds the 35 foot front and rear yard and 10/20 foot side yard setback requirements. City Code also requires a 20-foot landscape area adjacent to all public streets. The site plan complies w/th this requirement along U.S. Highway I0 and Sunfish Lake Blvd. Screening: The abutting properties to the north, south, east and west are zoned business and City Code does not require screening. Landscaping: Landscaping is generally acceptable. PedeStrian Transportation: In accordance with the platting of Sunfish Commons, an eight foot bituminous trail is required along Sunfish Lake Blvd.. The developer will need to provide an easement, in recordable form, dedicating the trail to the City for public purposes. The pedestrian trail alignment must conform to the standards established for bicycle trails outlined in the lvlnDot Bicycle Transportation Planning and Design Guidelines. Architectural Standards: City Code restricts building height to 35 feet, the proposed building will be 13 feet in height, which meets City standards. City Code restricts exterior wall finishes to natural or prefabricated brick or stone or pre-cast concrete panels or some other material approved by City Council. The building elevations indicate the facility will be finished with a combination of stucco, face brick, and decorative concrete masonry units. Exterior finishes comply with Code. Waste Storage: City Code requires that all solid waste and refuse receptacles shall be stored within a completely screened structure or located indoors. The site plan complies with this requirement. Access: Access is provided to the lot from an existing access point on County Road 57 (Sunfish Lake Blvd.). This access also provides ingress and egress to the multi-tenant facility located immediately west of the subject property. The traffic patterns for the site are such that the proposed development will direct traffic onto the adjacent lot, which has its access onto U.S. Highway 10. Because of the interdependence of both these sites on the accesses of each other, a mutual ingress/egress easement should be prepared and will be required as a condition of' site plan approval.
