CASE By: REQUEST FOR SITE PLAN REVIEW; NORTH PINE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CASE OF SW WOLD: Megan Wald, Community Development Assistant Background: The City has received a request for site plan review from SW Wold. SW Wold is proposing to construct a 20,075 square foot multi-tenant office and warehouse building on the property generally located off of State Highway # 10 and 153rd Avenue (adjacent to Boilermakers Company on the north). The following items are enclosed for your information: a) b) c) Site location map Site plan City Staff review letter dated June 1,2001 Notification: Site Plans are not required to be subjected to public hearings. Observations: The applicant is proposing to construct a multi-tenant office/warehouse facility on a 2.08- acre parcel. The property is zoned B-1 Business, office facilities are a permitted use. The proposed warehousing portion is not a permitted use and will require a conditional use permit. The Planning Commission will be reviewing a request for a conditional use permit for warehousing activities in a B- 1 district at the June Planning Commission meeting. The site plan indicates that the office area will consist of 1,000 square feet and the warehousing area will be 19,075 square feet in size. The proposed building exceeds the required front, rear and side yard setbacks established in the B-1 Business District. City Code restricts lot coverage to 35% of the lot area; the site plan is proposing a 22% lot coverage. In accordance with City Code, all driveways, off-street parking and maneuvering areas are proposed to be surfaced with bituminous pavement and finished with B-6/12 concrete curbing. City Code requires a minimum of 5 parking spaces for the proposed office facility. Past practice is to require 1 parking space for every 1,000 square feet of warehouse space or 19 spaces in this case. Therefore, the proposed 24 parking spaces will adequately serve both the office and warehouse activities. City code specifies that exterior wall finishes shall consist of natural or prefabricated brick or stone or integrally treated pre-cast concrete panels or other materials as approved by City Council. The building elevation plan indicates that the exterior wall materials will consist of rock face concrete block and stucco. Concrete blocks should be integrally treated with color.
