Stred, legally described as Lot 1, Block 2, Gateway North Industrial Park. The property is zoned [.',--2 Ihnployment Office and warehousing is permitted within this district. Mr. Trudgeon advised the proposed building has total lot coverage of 23% and conforms to all required setbacks. Building materials are satisfactory and consist of pre-cast, concrete panels at~d multiple windows. Additionally, the site plan meets all parking requirements and landscaping and lighting regulations. There are some minor details missing from the grading and drainage plans, which is addressed in the staff review letter. He explained the applicant has requested to install Class V surface in the rear of the proposed building. While not generally allowed by City Code, the size and weight of the equipment and machinery used in Dave Perkins Contracting requires the use of Class V. The use of Class V materials is subject to City Council al~prowfl. Mr, Trudgcon stated the applicant will need to pave Limonite Street in order to gain access from it. and has been asked to submit a revised site plan and grading and drainage plan indicating the intent to do tiffs work. Staff is requesting that sewer and water be installed as part of this road construction, and there are still discussions on how this will take place. He explained the City of Ramscy is paying for the sewer and water trunk and lateral fees and park dedication fees through a business subsidy agreement as outlined in the Development Permit. The trail fee and sIormwatcr management fee are the responsibility of the developer. He advised the Planning Commission recommended approval of the site plan, contingent upon the comments included in thc Staff Review Letter. The Chair of the Planning Commission asked the applicant, Dave Perkins, it' be found the letter acceptable, and Mr. Perkins indicated that he knew he was required to pave the road, but he was not aware that it had to be paved with curb and gutter, according to City standards. He indicated that he did not want to install curb and gutter, but that he would work with City staff. Mr. Perkins plans now include the installation of curb and gutter. Mr. %'udgcon advised that staff and the Planning Commission recommend site plan approval c(mtingcnt upon compliance with City Staff Review Letter dated September 27, 2005, revised October 19, 2005 and contingent upon the paving of Limonite Street, and the Developer signing a Development Permit with the City. Assistant Public Works Director Olson indicated Mr. Perkins has stated he expects the cost of extending sewer and water to be approximately $25,000. Staff would like direction from the Council on how to proceed with this dollar amount, as it is not included in the business subsidy agrccmem. He explained the issue is twofold. As staff was going through this site plan they noticed there are two properties without sewer and water, which are the B and A Cylinder site amd thc KIII property. Those subdivisions would require extension of sewer and water. If B and A Cylinder were to subdivide in the future with a north/south line there would be no other possibility for the site to access sewer and water other than from Limonite Street. If the property were to subdivide in an east/west direction it would not necessarily need water and sewer from l,imonitc Street. ttowever, in the absence of that decision the City needs to provide for sewer and walcr clown Limonite Street to plan for future subdivisions should that occur. Mayor ([amcc requested staff's input regarding Mr. Perkins not paying for the sewer and water i~npmvcments. City Council / October 25, 2005 Page 5 of 22
