Review File: MMI Precision Expansion Site Plan Review 4-14-14 Page 2 of 2 indicates seven (7) new trees proposed at the southwest corner of the site. One (1) additional tree shall be incorporated into the landscape plan to satisfy the overall planting requirements. Tree Removal/Preservation: No information has been provided on tree removal or preservation as a result of grading and construction activities. A tree preservation plan is required of all new developments and expansions. Section 117-327 of the Zoning Ordinance includes all requirements for this plan that shall be completed and approved by the City prior to the issuance of a building permit. Security Fence: A security fence is shown on the plans that will enclose the site from the northwest corner and extending south to the southwest corner. Two gates are planned, one on the north and one on the south to fully enclose this area. Additional detail will be required on the proposed height and type of fence proposed. A permit will be required prior to installation. In addition, access to fence enclosure (key) shall be provided for police and fire. Building Elevations: The elevation plans for the proposed addition indicate colored rock face concrete block in two colors to match the existing building. The proposed addition will include the same accent banding on all four elevations. A new entry is planned on the east elevation of the addition with windows on both sides. Additional windows are also planned on the south and north elevations. The west elevation will include a dock and service door. Staff is supportive of the proposed elevations. Engineering: The applicant has been working closely with the City to refine the site plan to not include any variances. The applicant is requesting flexibility in providing grading and utility plans in a staged submittal. Preliminary grading will be provided prior to the Planning Commission meeting while final grading will be provided prior to the City Council meeting. The City will work with the applicant to review final plan for utilities and storm water management plans prior to issuance of a building permit. Review of the preliminary grading information has been completed. The expansion is proposing to fill in part of the existing stormwater pond. A grading plan is required to show how the new addition and parking areas match the existing site. Stormwater calculations will be needed to reflect the impact of the new addition on the ponding area and how infiltration of the first inch of runoff from the new impervious surfaces will be handled. The pond overflow can be connected to the existing storm sewer in the street. Detailed design of the connection will be required before issuing the building permit.
