The proposed 42 off-street parking spaces, would appear to exceed City Code requirements. Outside Storage: It is Staff's understanding that the subject property ~vill contain little to no outside storage. It should be noted that outside storage of equipment and materials must be placed on a bituminous surface and is not permitted to encroach into the designated customer/employee parking areas. Lighting: A lighting plan has been submitted and meets City requirements. Off-Street Loading Area: City Code requires one off-street loading berth for buildings that have over 10,000 square feet of floor area and one additional loading berth for each additional 25,000 square feet. The site plan is proposing six loading docks, this exceeds City Code requirements Landscaping: The shrub and tree specitled on the Landscape Plan are good choices for the subject property and therefore Staff is recommending approval of tree caliper of less than 2 -2 ½ inches. The pian meets the standard minimum requirements. Drainage and Grading: This site is being built as a lot within West Rarnsey Industrial Park. That development proposes to route all of the storm water runoff to an unoutletted regional pond north of 156tt~ Avenue NW. This site plan must comply with that objective upon the construction of future additions. Upon completion of the storm ponding facilities, erosion control measures should be installed to protect the ponding from sedimentation. - The Lower Rum River Watershed Management Organization (WMO) will require a permit for this development. From the National Wetlands Inventory Map it does not appear that there are any wetlands on the subject property. This information should be verified as it will be part of the process for the WMO permit. Evidence of a WIvlO permit must be supplied before any grading activity begins. The ponding and storm sewer construction must be protected by a drainage and utility easement and must be completed prior to the issuance ora building permit. Access: The site will derive access through one entrance off of 156m Avenue NW. Stormwater Management Fee: The City has enacted a Stormwater Management Fee and the current rate is Three Thousand Seven Hundred Forty One Dollars ($3,741.00) per commercial acre. The amount of Stormwater Management Fee due on the 4.58-acre parcel is seventeen thousand {)ne hundred thirty four dollars ($17,134.00). A cash payment will be required prior to the City issuing a Building Permit. -145-
