A sufficient number of customer/employee parking spaces are provided. At the Planning Commission meefi.~g on May 2, the applicant noted an error on the site plan and indicated that in addition to the eqm!pment storage area in the northwest comer of the site, the maneuvering areas on the north and sou~ sides of the maintenance building are proposed to be surfaced with a gravel road base. The apgt~icant has indicated that a bituminous surface around the maintenance building would not hold up fO the wear and tear of the substantial equipment to be serviced on the site. The Planning Comrrdss~on has recommended waiving the pavement and curbing requirements in these equipment maneuvering areas. The site plan proposes bituminous curbing on the paved driveways and the customer/qYnployee parking areas; B-612 concrete curbing is required and the site plan should be modifiexl accordingly. The Planning Commission recommended requiring concrete curbing at the entrahee from 147th Avenue N.W., allowing bituminous curbing from that point up to the office buildi~g parking area, and going back to concrete curbing around the parking area and at the Ferret Street ~ntrance. The floor plan for~the office structure shows an efficiency apartment on the second level. In conversations with Ne applicant, Staff has learned that this is a matter of mislabelling and the room is intended as an enCployee lunch room and lounge. Because this is a commercial development in excess of 5 acres, the grading and drainage plans have been submitte~l to the Lower Rum River Water Management Organization (LRRWMO). The WMO has approve~ a permit for the storm water system. Recommendation: The Planning Cor~anission and City Staff recommend site plan approval with waivers to the requirement for paOement and curbing on the equipment maneuvering and storage areas and the 30% size restricting, on accessory buildings. Council Action: Motion to: , Approve/deny the proposed site plan for Kenko, Inc. contingent upon compliance with City Staff r~view letter dated April 26, 1995 with a waiver to the pavement and curbing requirement on the equipment maneuvering and storage area and providing City Staff with a copy of ~ corrected site plan.
