The exterior walls of the building are proposed to be a combination of painted rock face, split-rib and scored concrete block. Waste storage areas would be provided inside the building. She stated the landscape plans complies with the 20 foot wide landscape requirements along Unity and 140th Avenue. Staff recommended future plantings on the south and east sides of the property be incorporated into the current planting proposal. The landscaping on the south and east sides would help screen loading dock activity from the adjacent parcels. City Engineer Jankowski stated grading would be done in conjunction with 140th Avenue which would serve the site. He said catch basins would be located on the extension of the eastern line of the property. Storm sewer to the southeast comer of the property would drain into a swale on the south of the site. The storm sewer would be extended westerly along the south line and cross Unity Street, discharging into the regional detention pond. He stated there would be drainage opportunities for the development to the eastern or southern line. Richard Foster, Indianhead Construction, said the landscaping had been revised per staff direction and B-612 curb would be included. Lighting would be wall packs on the side of the building and should not cause interference with traffic. He stated lighting on Unity Street would aid in lighting the property. Motion by Commissioner Deemer, seconded by Commissioner Terry, to recommend that City Council approve the proposed site plan for Indianhead Construction and A&K Manufacturing contingent upon compliance with the City StaffReview Letter dated July 29, 1998.
