Page 3 of 5 December 29, 2000 The site plan is proposing an off-street parking area for trucks and equipment to consist of a Class II surface instead of the required bituminous or concrete pavement. This is a deviation from City Code and will require City Council approval. Staff is recommending that at a minimum the off-street parking area consist ora Class V recycled aggregate surface. Off-Street Parking - Spaces Required: City Code requires one parking space for each employee on 'the maximum working shift; the proposed facility would haVe a maximum of twenty,four (24) employees during one working shift.. The Site .plan is proposing 40 employee/customer parking stalls, this meets City Code requirements. Lighting: The site plan is absent 'of the required lighting p[a~, a.lighting plan needs to be submitted and is subject to approval of the City Engineer: Landscaping: The landscape plar~ is acceptable provided that additional foundation landscaping space that includes a variety of species is provided around the principal building. Drainage and Grading: The Watershed Management Organization will require a permit for this development. From the National Inventory Map in the City's Stormwater Management Plan it does not appear that there is any wetland areas on this site, but this information should be verified, by the developer as it will be part'of the permitting process for the Watershed Management Organization permit. A gradation of the recycled aggregate surfacing that is acceptable and approved by the City Engineer should be specified .so as to minimize erosion and still provide for a good driving surface. The main concern that is expressed is that of eroslon control, both temporary and permanent, for the recycled aggregate surface and dirt storage area that are being proposed on the north portion of the property. It appears that there is temporary erosion control measures, via silt fence, proposed for the development on'the entire boundary of the proposed development. This silt fence shall be maintained during the construction process and until successful tuff establishment. There is not any erosion control measures being used at the storm sewer structures. These should be submitted as part of the site plan approval process. Permanent measures, such as the construction of concrete bins to contain the dirt that is being stored, the introduction of a berm along the north portion of the dirt storage area and sloping the recycled aggregate surface away from the pond and constructing storm sewers with their inlets designed with "Stormceptors", are suggested. These measures, if properly maintained, will provide a significant benefit to the erosion potential of the two areas mentioned above. -203-
