-80- R. Johnson: Site Plan Review Page 2 of 3 March 1, 2001 4 Residential Equivalent Unit: The City of Ramsey has implemented a storm drainage utility. The properties in this area were regarded as single family unless they had additional parking and/or building area that was atypical of a single family dwelling. The quarterly storm drainage utility charge for this 'property will be $39.18 per quarter. Lot Coverage: The commercial portion of the lot (69,630 square feet) is restricted to 35% building coverage or 24,370 square feet. The proposed commercial structure is 2,400 square feet in size which equates to a building coverage of.03%. Access: The commercial building is proposed to receive access from 149th Avenue. The covenants established that there ~vould be 5 driveways for the 10 lots in Pineview Estates 2nd Addition Planned Unit Development. Lots 7 and 8 are supposed to have a 30 foot wide driveway (15 feet on center) on the common property line between Lots 7 and 8. The site plan for the commercial garage indicates that a 12 foot wide driveway is proposed on the east Line of Lot 7; this is 3 feet deficient of the covenants requirement. The plan does not reflect how wide the driveway is on Lot 8 and whether or not it is on the common property line with Lot 7. In addition the site survey reflects that the driveway to the home was proposed to angle off to the southwest from the common property line with Lot 8. This would indicate an effort to comply with the requirement for one driveway on the common property line. However, the site plan shows that the driveway to the residential garage does not commence at the common property line with Lot 8; it appears to be in about the middle of the lot. Therefore, the site plan shows 2 driveways; one for the residence and another one on the common property line with Lot 8. This conflicts with the covenants requirement for 1 driveway per lot on the common property line with an adjacent lot. The deficient width and location.of the driveway should be addressed by the Homeowner's Association, which is also responsible for reviewing the site plan. Off-Street Parking: The covenants requires off-street parking for the commercial development on the property. The proposed site plan shows 3 off-street parking spaces for the commercial garage.' This is acceptable. Architectural Standards: The exterior finish on the building will be vinyl siding, which is compatible with the dwelling and surrounding homes. I I I ! I I I I I I I I I I I ! !
