Dear Ken,
Howard Pagel asked Mr. Loran Keller to send me a site plan to review for zoning com-
pliance before applying for application or issuance of a building permit. As these requests
must be initiated by your office, I'm forwarding the material; however I did make a brief
review which you may use to inform Mr. Keller as to what is needed for compliance. The
following comments relate to the attached site plan:
1. The new ad ition is proposed 10' from the rear property line - ordinance re-
quirs 30" The building addition must be shortened or a request for variance
maybe plied for if the applicant has justifiable cause for a variance, or
twenty feet of land can be attached to the rear of the lot.
2. Parking requirements may require additional spaces. If the current use of the
existing building is retail and the preposed use of the addition is warehousing
• or storage,two additional spaces are required; if the use of the existing building
is office and the proposed use of the addition is, again warehousing, there is a
sufficient number of spaces. This is based on the new building being a ware-
house, which would require 2 parking spaces. If the use were ever to change to
retail sales or office use, the change would require the addition of 1 to14,,,
additional spaces respectively.
3. Section 8.04 of the ordinance requires a landscape plan which should show
existing and proposed landscaping.
4. Lot coverage and F.A.R. would appear sufficient provided there is no more than
two floors involved.
5. Building elevations were not included so it cannot be determined if the structure
will exceed the 35' maximum height requirement.
6. Any proposed signing or lighting should be shown to determine compliance with
signing and lighting regulations.
By the way, I'm going on vacation for two weeks so if you have any
questions or need anything, John Bergly will be available to help you
as he did last year.
• Very truly yours,
CD
