and ~~ J The proposed building has a tot',d of three loading bays located on the east 0uth sides of the building. Two of the loading docks are on the south side of the build'./ng:!Which fronts Hwy. #10. To comply with code requirements, the building design shoUl,i:l be:altered to locate the two loading docks to the north side of the building. This coul~re~lt in the necessity to alter the proposed location of the building to accommodate manehverhbility area on the north side of the building. Desilgq 6fioff-Street Parking, Driveway and Loading Dock Areas: City Code requires that all 0~ith~[ areas include curb and gutter and be surfaced with concrete or asphalt. The site plan i~ndieates an existing driveway and off-sn-eet parking area with bituminous surface and no ctirb~r~g. The site plan proposes a Class 5 second access from Hwy. #10 and man¢~venng area to loading docks and LP storage tank. The applicant has noted that there have ~be~ discussions with the City regarding the need for storm sewer improvements in thearg ~h, '~ a ~ ich ma), involve the subject property and has therefore requested the waiving of all a~dfi:ional pavement and curbing requirements that may be required. City Staffs re¢0~m~Odation is that B612 concrete curbing be required, at a minimum, from the prope,)rt~ y:,i~ntrance up to the six foot chain link fence to be installed on all new and existing pav~x[~a~s. The future storm sewer could be located beyond this paved area. Most likely, it could be placed in the vicinity of the existing parcel's western border. To meet City Code requi~m~nts, the applicant should pave the traffic pattern routes to the loading docks and LP storage tank. Curbing might be waived beyond the fenceline. The fence could be mov¢~ n0nh to accommodate the additional off-sn'eet parking spaces. ~., The facility will continue to be served by an on-site sewage disposal system and a privat~ W~I1. It is the City's understanding that the proposed building will not significantly incre~e W~ater use or wastewater generation. Lancl~c:a~in~, Screening: Minimum 20 foot landscape buffers are required and provided for adjacent ~0 U.S. Highway #10. All of the combined property from the existing office/retail buildihg ~h"orth is proposed to be enclosed with chain link fencing. The landscaping plan propd~esl to install 3 Mountain Ash trees and 15 shrubs along the fenceline from the weste~'ly[~line of the easternmost driveway to the west property boundary. Landscaping shoul~l als0 be considered to help screen the large L.P. tank currently located between the parkirjg lot and T.H. #10. ~ Drainage within this area has been problematic. An area of approximately 2.5 squar~ :r~ies to the north drains to the subject property. In the mid 1980's, lengthy pump[nffiWhich lasted for months occurred at this property. The City is pursuing a storm sewe~to ~j'ovide drainage at the location as a long term solution. In the interim, however, the prbpo~sed addition of building area and the drive surfacing will increase the amount of runof~ gl~erated by this property. Presently, ponding occurs on the property in the location of the L.P. tanks located along the sites existing western boundary. Additional drainage runs onto the adjacent Burlinaton Northern Railroad riaht-of-way and ponds in the railroad ditch. It is recommended ~hat a seapage pond be cremated in the northwestern corne~of:the western parcel.
