CASE # REQUEST FOR SITE PLAN APPROVAL; CASE OF SHARP AND ASSOCIATES/IN-TECH By: Sylvia Frolik, Zoning Administrator Background: Thc City of Rarnsey has received a request for site plan approval from Dennis Sharp of Sharp and Associates. The plan proposes to construct an office/warehouse for In-Tech on Lot 1, A.E.C. Energy Park 3e Addition. The following items are enclosed: a) Site location map b) Site plan c) City Staff Review Letter dated April 1, 1999 d) Planning Commission meeting minutes dated April 6, 1999 Observations: The facility is proposed to be 31,307 square feet in size with a possible future addition of another 16,576 square feet. The site plan being considered at this time is only applicable to the initial 31,307 square feet. The proposed building and its future addition complies with the 35% building coverage restriction and all structure setback requirements.. The exterior finish on the building is proposed to be a combination of rock and smooth face block. Code requires concrete surfaces to be treated with a decorative or textured material and the use of the smooth face block requires Council approval. Two loading berths are required and 4 are provided. In accordance with City Code a sufficient number of off-street parking spaces are provided and all traveled surfaces of the lot will be paved with bituminous and finished with B-612 concrete curb. The required landscaped yards are provided adjacent to Sunwood Drive and Rarnsey Blvd. N.W. Staff is requesting the addition of a few more trees along Sunwood to compliment an already established pattern of trees every 35 feet. Under City Code requirements, no screening is required because the property is surrounded by Business Warehouse zoning. The submittal is deficient of a lighting plan and a waste storage plan. The City Engineer has recommended some modifications to the drainage plan that consist of replacing the two curb cuts along the western boundary of the property with catch basins and storm sewer pipe. The site plan is subject to the approval of the A.E.C. Architectural Review Board and the Lower Rum River Water Management Organization. It is the Applicant's responsibility to arrange for these reviews. The Planning Commission met on April 6 and reviewed the proposed site plan.
