| 09/20/2006 | HEATHER THRALL | ZONING | REVIEW | Denied | TO: Development Services Department Plans Coordination Office FROM: Heather Thrall Senior Planner PROJECT: T06OT02036 899 E. Silverlake, UPS facility, new parking lot, greater than 25% expansion Site plan, full code compliance TRANSMITTAL DATE: September 20, 2006 COMMENTS: Please resubmit revised drawings along with redlines and a response letter, which states how all Zoning Review Section comments regarding the Land Use Code and Development Standards were addressed. 1. This project was reviewed for compliance with requirements of the Land Use Code (LUC), Development Standard (DS), American National Standard Institute (ANSI), and International Building Code 2003 (IBC 2003). Specifically, the project was reviewed for content compliance with DS 2-02, site plan content. This project is the proposed addition of a new parking lot on the UPS site, adjacent to the existing parking area. The information submitted on the site plan indicates this new parking lot is a greater than 25% expansion of the existing vehicular use area. Due to this percentage of expansion, staff has reviewed this project for full code compliance for the entire site, including the lot configuration history and buildings. It is staff's understanding this project was meant to be in phases, per a meeting after this plan was submitted. Should a phased plan be submitted at the next review, showing that the first phase is less than a 25% expansion, the following comments will drastically change and apply only to a full code compliance scenario. Staff noted that the official use classification for this site, per the Zoning Administrator, is both the primary uses of Office and Warehouse (commercial storage). In the general notes, please provide minimum parking and loading zone ratios based upon the following ratios 1 parking space per every 200 square feet of office area(1/200) and 1 parking space per every 5000 square feet of warehouse/commercial storage area (1/5000). Please declare the gross floor areas on the plan for each use, taking into account all buildings. 2. Per DS 2-02.2.1.2, please provide the legal description for the lot on the site plan. Also, staff noted the parcel number for this project, 129-15-006G, suggests the lot has a history of splits and/or reconfigurations. Please provide a history of this parcel's prior configurations to show how it achieved such a high tax code number, and that the current configuration is approved. Our records section may assist with the last approved site plan on file as well. 3. Per DS 2-02.2.1.4, with regards to the location map, please add township 14 S, Range 14 E, Section 19 to it, as well as adjacent TRS information. Please provide map at a scale of 1"is equal to 3 miles. 4. Per DS 2-02.2.1.6, provide dimensions for building footprint. 5. Per DS 2-02.2.1.7, per recent aerial photos, it appears that there are other smaller buildings on the site that are not shown on the drawing. All buildings should be shown. Staff acknowledges the building setbacks do not appear to be an issue for the main building. For record purposes, please provide setback dimensions from the building to surrounding lot lines. As Silverlake Road is a Major Streets and Routes, please provide the future curb location on Silverlake (maximum right of way is 76') and provide building setback from that future curb. Be sure to revise building square footage notations on the plans. 6. Per DS 2-02.2.1.8, with regards to parking/vehicular use areas: A) staff noted there appear to be several parking areas surrounding the building for larger delivery vehicles, per recent aerials. Please depict the total vehicular use area, with loading areas, parking areas, etc. on the plan. B) Please revise the total square footage of the vehicular use area on the plan to show the areas surrounding the building. C) In addition, a percentage of expansion calculation should be shown on the plan, based upon the information on the last city approved site plan. D) Dimension all handicapped parking spaces. E) Per IBC 2003, Section 1106.1, please provide 3 additional handicapped parking spaces F) Ensure 2 handicapped parking spaces are van accessible G) Clarify where the handicapped access aisles are and their widths/lengths H) Provide signage for handicapped parking spaces I) Clarify what large crossed area is in new parking lot - loading? Dimension. J) Note that further parking spaces shown for delivery trucks may cause further comments 7. Per DS 2-02.2.1.9, provide bicycle parking and typical detail drawings of racks/lockers. 8. Per DS 2-02.2.1.10, ensure all existing an future sight visibility triangles are on the plan. 9. Per DS 2-02.2.1.11, show width of PAAL near guard booth to objects that are apparently stationary (identify these please). Show circulation and PAAL widths for large vehicle traffic and any surface changes (markings, etc). Show any curbing. 10.
