The project, as approved in 2001, allowed the development to be p J constructed in two phases, The applicants have proposed minor site and building changes to include a slightly larger building to allow for trash storage. The parking lot g would be redesigned to better accommodate access to the loading doors of the second building. The applicants are interested in moving forward with construction of Building 2 this Fall. The first building is in place and is currently fully leased. ISSUES ANALYSIS Project Request. The applicants have determined that it is not feasible to add onto the existing trash enclosure located on the north side of the parking lot or construct a new enclosure on the property. The proposed site plan indicates incorporation of the trash handling area in Building 2. The trash area has been added onto Building 2 at the inner corner facing west. That addition will add approximately 572 square feet to the building footprint. The trash enclosure for Building 2 had been planned on the south side of the building near the driveway entrance of 55th Street North. The applicants have indicated that location does not work from a practical or aesthetic point of view. The second aspect of this review is that the applicants are requesting to remove the eight parking stalls on the easterly side of the center parking island. This has been requested to allow for better access into the doors of Building 2. Parking. Building 1 requires 32 parking spaces. Building 2, with the larger footprint, would require 29 parking spaces for a total of 61 for the site. The site plan indicates a total of 76 parking spaces. If the eight stalls were removed as requested, the site would have a seven stall surplus for parking. Building Design. Elevations of the second building have been submitted incorporating the building addition. The building will be identical in appearance to Building 1 in terms of design and materials. Grading, Drainage, and Utility Plans. The proposed building addition does not increase the overall hard cover of the site. The submitted grading, drainage and utility plans are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer. Lighting. Lighting plans have been submitted. The fixtures will be identical to those installed on Building 1 and are compliant with the Zoning Ordinance. The lighting plan should be revised to assure that the maximum light at the property line is .4 foot candles. The light fixtures installed on the northeast building side may not be necessary and the applicant should consider whether they could be removed. Landscaping. The submitted landscape plan is subject to review and approval of the City Arborist. RECOMMENDATION f CONCLUSION Based upon the preceding review, it is recommended that the conditional use permit/planned unit development and site plan review for Building 2 of the DDD LLC project in the Kern Center should be approved with the following conditions: 2 1 , The site plan has been revised to allow for a 572 square foot addition to Building v� 2 to allow for trash storage. . 2.
