COUNCIL BUSINESS Case #1: Request for Site Plan Review of Boilermakers Local #647; Case of Boilermakers Local #647 Management Intern Gladhill stated Boilermakers Local #647 has applied for site plan review for the addition of a 425 square foot office/training facility in their current facility. The site plan is proposing to construct a 425 square foot office/training addition on the existing Boilermakers Local #647 property. The site is located generally north of Highway 10 and west of Alpine Drive. The subject property is zoned B-2 Business; the proposed building is a permitted use in this district. The site plan complies with the front yard, rear yard, and side yard setbacks established in the B-2 Business District. Lot coverage has been calculated at 13%, which is under the 45% maximum lot coverage restriction established in City Code. The site will derive access from Alpine Drive. The addition will use existing off-street parking and maneuvering areas. The site plan is proposing sufficient parking stalls. The proposed rock face concrete block used to match existing conditions on the exterior walls is permitted in the B-2 Employment District. A revised grading and drainage plan has been submitted by the applicant, and is generally acceptable. No landscaping plan has been submitted due to the size of the addition. Staff continues to review the existing septic system to ensure proper sizing. The Planning Commission met on June 7 and recommended approval of the site plan contingent upon compliance with the City Staff Review Letter dated June 1, 2007. At building permit time there will be a review of what is needed in relation to fire suppression. This can be determined once better building permits have been submitted. Motion by Councilmember Strommen, seconded by Councilmember Jeffrey, to approve the site plan of Boilermakers Local #647, contingent upon compliance with City Staff Review Letter dated June 1,2007, revised July 6, 2007. Motion carried. V oting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Strommen, Jeffrey, Dehen, Elvig, Look, and Olson. Voting No: None.
