Tom called me in response to my letter notifying commercial properties 0f the compliance deadline for required site improvmeents (i.e., pavement and curbing). Tom indicated that the improvements currently existing on the site include a bituminous inon-curbed parking area for employees, a concrete sidewalk to the building entrance, arid the rest of the site is surfaced with Class 5 and recycled concrete. Tom also indicated that National Propane is anticipating an expansion in 1997. I respondedl that under the circumstances of a pending expansion, my recommendation to City Council will b¢ to waive 'the I/1/97 deadline in Nafional's case because a site plan review pro~je~ ss will be required for the 1997 expansion. At that time Staff, Planning Commissiori and City Council will have the opportunity to review existing site amenities and require Upgrading the site to be in compliance with City Code. To require installation of pavementiand curbzng prior to then- expansion ~s not logncal and has the potennal to drive up the cost i of their expansion if the pavement and curbing are damaged during the construction ,project later in 1997.
