CASE REQUEST FOR SITE PLAN REVIEW OF AUTOMATED EDM; CASE OF AUTOMATED EDM By: Megan Wald, Associate Planner Background: Automated EDM currently operates their office, warehouse, and light manufacturing facility on the property located at 6231 McKinley Street. Their existing facility is 12,576 square feet in size and they are proposing to construct an 11,975 square foot warehouse/light manufacturing addition. The following items are enclosed for your information: a) b) c) d) Site location map Site plan City Staff review letter dated October 8, 2004 Development Permit Notification: Site Plans do not require a public heating. Observations: The existing facility is located in the E-1 Employment District and is considered a permitted use in this district. The subject property is approximately 1.81 acres in size. Lot coverage for the proposed project is approximately 31% (restricted to 45% under City Code). The addition meets the required front, rear, side yard setbacks, and parking stall requirements. 'The exterior materials are proposing to consist of rock face'and smooth face concrete masonry block, which complies with City Code standards. The landscape plan is acceptable. The subject property and adjacent property currently drain to'a common pond, which occupies area on both properties. The grading plan proposes installing an outlet from this common pond into the 30 inch storm sewer located on the north side on McKinley Street. This storm sewer discharges into the regional pond located at the east terminus of McKinley Street. The elevation of this outlet will limit the 100 year event to an elevation of 863.4 which is 2.1 feet higher than the catch basin inlet on the neighboring property's drive. This would cause water to pond briefly in a 100 year event for a distance of 15 to 30 feet from the inlet. The ponded area is not covered by a drainage and utility easement. The City Attorney has advised that a drainage and utility easemen[ would be required if additional ponding is caused because of the increased amount of impervious area. Although an outlet will be provided which may .improve the current potential for flooding to the adjacent property, the high. water level from a 100 year event will cause temporary flooding of the adjacent property. Therefore as a condition of approval a drainage and utility easement should be required from the adjacent property over that portion of their 15roperty which woi~ld be inundated by a design storm event.
