Site Proposal.
The following is a list of the ordinance requirements and the proposed
project:
B -3 Proposed
Front Yard 1' Approx. 56'
Rear Yard 15' 60'
Side Yard N 10' N 110'
S 0' S 33'
Height 1 45 ? 1 story
Parking * 11. 150'
* This requirement is based on the building being a
restaurant with a seating capacity of 150 and the rest of
the building being 100% office at a ratio of 1 space to 200
sq.ft. of gross floor area.
Signage.
The applicant is proposing a sign at the corner of 11th Avenue South &
County Road #3. In addition to this sign, each tenant will have a
sign on the building. The signage will be similar to the Auto Mall
4111 signage.
Exterior.
The exterior will consist of brick and a painted metal exterior. The
color of the metal is not decided as of yet. The brick is proposed to
be gray.
Land Exchanges.
This project will involve the exchange and sale of land. The
intersection at 11th Avenue and County Road 3 will be widened in the
near future. The land along 11th Avenue South is owned by the
applicant, but needed for the widening of 11th Avenue. The land along
County Road #3 is owned by the City, but needed for parking in this
project. The City is proposing to exchange the land along 11th Avenue
for land along County Road #3 and then sell additional land to the
applicant along County Road #3. The site plan reflects the new lot
lines.
Traffic Flow.
There will be two egress /ingress points, one from 11th Avenue and a
second from County Road #3. The access from County Road #3 will be at
the approximate area of 8th Avenue. The egress /ingress on 11th Avenue
will be aligned with an egress /ingress on the west side of 11th
410 Avenue. Access to the City water tower will be from County Road #3.
The access point from 8th Avenue will have to be upgraded. We will be
working the applicant to design a road which will serve both the
City's and the applicants needs.

ANALYSIS.

Landscaping.
The applicant has submitted a landscape plan. The site is required to
have 33 trees; the plan shows 15 trees. The applicant has stated that
they will try to add a few more trees within the parking lot.
However, in order to meet the landscape requirements, parking spaces
would have to be used. The applicant does have extra parking but the
staff feels that the parking is needed rather than the landscaping.
The plan shows additional landscaping that does not count for the
ordinance requirements. Sidewalk will be constructed along 11th Avenue
and County Road 3.
Drainage.
The Director of Engineering has reviewed the plans and found them
acceptable The applicant is doing a EAW. This EAW has been started.
It should be noted there are several easements which are on the site.
Fire.
The Fire Marshall has reviewed the plans and recommended that another
fire hydrant be added to the east end of the site.
Temporary Parking.
Part of the City owned land will be used as parking during the
construction of the parking ramp. Approximately 30 spaces will be
needed. This area will be on the east side of the site and should not
create a problem.
110 CCDC.
CCDC has the plans to the proposed development. As of the date of
this report they had not reviewed them.
- How does this proposal affect future transporation?
One of the staff's concerns with this site is the impact on the
intersection. There will be a traffic study done by Benshoof in the
very near future and this should tell us the timing of when to begin
improvements. We know improvements will have to be made at the
intersection we just do not know the timing. The Capital
Improvements Program has budgeted money for the upgrading of the
intersection.
The access road to the development from 8th Avenue will have to be
upgraded also. This access road to the development will be coordinated
the Park and Ride. This access point in the future will also serve
the development to the south, what ever that maybe. The staff will be
working with the applicant to determine the best way to utilize this
area both for the proposed development and the future development to
the south. For this development the roadway will be 25 feet in width,
but the development of the 13 acre site to to south will dictate the
need for a improved road.

page 4
One of the proposed routes for the LRT is on 9th Avenue. This route
will be to the east of the proposed developement and should not have
an impact on this project.
What is the impact on the surrounding area?
The site plan provides access to the 13 acre site to the south. The
exact design of the roadway into the site has not been determined as
of yet, but we know that an improved road will be needed.
The Public Works has reviewed the plan and found it acceptable.
There will be access to the water tower and the proposed building is
the required 75 feet away from the water tower.
The directional sign on the corner of County Road 3 and 11th Avenue
will remain until the improvements are made to the intersection.
The staff finds the aestetics acceptable.
Alternatives.
1. Approve the Conditional Use Permit to construct the strip
center with conditions. If the Commission approves the
Conditional Use Permit the applicant will be able to
construct the proposed development.
2. Deny the Conditional Use Permit. The applicant will not
be able to construct the strip center as proposed. If
the Commission chooses this alternative they will have to
identify Findings of Fact to support their denial.
3. Continue for further information. If the Commission
feels that further information is needed, the item should
be continued.
