Application'No_.. :74040 Commission Application Nro,o 74@4 subirdtted'by .Gabbert
�(Gabbert and -Beck, Inc..) .and Beck, Inc. The item ,was iyar.oduaed by =the -Director
of Planning and Trrspection Vho , explained that the
.applicant is seeking .site -and building Galan .approval for
an approximate f&6., 0.0:0 square ffocit en im-ed mall retail
center`to'be located westefly, of'the ryton -Home Store.
:He stated that the applicant "s mite ;plain ,includes the
existing retail :building vvhh :boos es the3rschfield
Paint Store and - Northwest ~Organ , '�-cxmpany :o
Mr, Tremere explained tlrat the - prvgetty rs presently
subject to a major utility easemmtt ;cons.i ing -of ;several
power poles and guide wire foundations. He stated that
the subject plans comprehend :construction -of a retail
center, with various �slte rdesir n aa=eFts propused`to
accommodate the ,power rea-sement initially -:and to
eventually utilize 4 the easement. area ~when vacated. He
noted that the applicarnt ;has stated that Northern States
Power Company is tplanning reorientation , _of the ,power
Tines , possibly within two years:, -and. would vacate the
easement when the .lines are �r-erouted,
He continued by commenting that calculations for parking,
which are based upon the <grosys -loor -area of the facility.,
call for an exemption of the'8,700 rsquare foot internal
circulation area„ He :stated ;that this i consistent with
the plan approved for the Broakdale Center. He -also
noted that the site plans mroflect =:a -requested 4eferral of
approximately 95 parking pace=s ;.under the first phase of
the plan and approximately 73 :space`s lunder the -ultimate
master ; plan. He stated that the applicant considers the
spaces to be urilike'ly .a't 'lea:st dur- ing'the early stages of
the development., and the area forthe spaces could be
'better utilized for landscape purposes to enhance the
large 'lot.
Mr. Tremere explained that the applicant has included
what is termed proof of parking 1plans 'for both phases,
demonstrating how the required parking could be pro -
vided when deemed necessary. He continued by stating
that there was some precedent for deferring parking in
the cases of large developments, but this application
differs somewhat since in previous cases the deferred
areas have been incorporated into perimeter green areas
or large identifiable open spaces.. He stated, 'however,,
that the proposal has merit in terms of provi character
and aesthetic treatment to the parking 16t area
-7- 7 -22 -74

He also noted concern with respect to the proposed
loading area to be located on the west side of the
building. He commented that the floor area plan of
the building calls for a service and emergency corridor
running through the building with rear entrances to
shops on either side. He stated that the exterior door
of this corridor will serve as the primary entrance for
shipping and receiving. He explained that while the
plans meet the ordinance requirements as to dimen-
sions for loading berths, there is a need for delineation
and a degree of visible screening from the loading area.
He noted that the primary concern would be the potential
for large trucks backing up to the designated doorway
and the need for a horizontal and a vertical delineator
to provide for the movement,
Mr. Tremere stated, however, that the submitted plans
only indicate such a delineator at the main entrance to
the service corridor, while the building plan indicates
other entrances along the west side of the center. He
recommended that delineators be provided in those loca-
tions as well so to inhibit the backing of trucks and to
define the loading area from the automobile driving lane.
The Mayor then recognized Mr. Bennet, of the firm
Bather, Ringrose, and Wolsfeld, the design and arch=
tectural consultant for the applicant. Mr. Bennet
explained the planning considerations for the project,
including the difficult nature of the subject parcel
resulting from the earlier development of the four
corners of the larger tract, He stated that an effort was
made to not only conform with City requirements but also
to provide the applicant with maximum exposure, effec-
tive and efficient access, and good traffic flow through
the project.
Mr. Bennet reviewed the site and building plans, noting
the two proposed phases of the development, consisting
of an ultimate master plan and the initial development
plan which comprehends the accommodation of the existing
power poles and guide wires, He also commented as to
the ro osed landscaping p p p° g plan, stating that it was
developed as an entity or landscaping statement which
accentuates the aesthetics of the center. He stated that
it was both functional in that it provides screening to the
center, as well as complimentary to the area. He also
suggested that there is merit in deferring the indicated
amounts of parking spaces so that there could be full
realization of the landscaping and aesthetic considerations.
He noted that the obligation to provide the required parking
spaces is realized by the applicant and if the City deter-
mines they are necessary in the future, they would be
added.
In discussion an inquiry was made in terms of the pro-
visions for refuse disposal, particularly in the area of
the intended restaurant. Mr. Tremere commented that
provisons have been made for all refuse and trash dis-
posal areas to be totally enclosed with no outside storage
of any materials, particularly refuse, He noted that the
7 -22 -74 -8-
prospective tenant areas are subject to realignment,.
including the proposed restaurant.- With respect to the
restaurant, he stated that the 5,0DG square-: foot 125 -seat
facility called for in the plans represent: a maximum.
Councilman Jensen inquired as to the planning which has
gone into the signery provision. Mr. Bennet, presented a
scale model of the development,, indicating the type of
uniform signery which- would,. be provided around? the
exterior wall of the building., H.4 commented that the
intent is to provide for a. freestanding sign: identifying
the center. Mr. Tremere stated.that in the case > of the
entrance towers, which? project a b:ove the actual roof
line the applicant has been informed that- s °ignery would
only be permitted on those tower fascia below the roof
line and would be considered part of tie wal signery..
Mr.. Tremere then voiced a corrcern expressed to him
by a member of the Brooklyn C- ,en ner Hutm- ars lights
Commission in that some, provisiam soh ld� be made, in
the plans for compliance with th,e> States handicap. -ed
regulations in terms of curbing and pa- rllimg, requirements.;o
