ADJOIURNMENT r e • Application_ No. 70055 Applicant z Brooklyn plaza corporation Description of Request.- Site and building plan approval for a four unite 1x870 seat theater, and a 155 car parking variance for a parcel described as the south half of Tract B, R.L.S. 1300, commonly described as being located at John MartingDrive and Highway 0100. BACKGROUND-. A„ Parking Variance„ it is the contention of the applicant that the ordinance requirement of one parking space per three theater seats does not apply to the multi--theater concept such as is being proposed. The applicant further contends that a one parking space per four theater seats is more realistic because tbeater hours are staggered and maximum capacity is not needed at any one time,. • The I to 3 ratio would require 623 parking spaces while maximum recfuareroents at a I to 4 ratio is 468 spaces.. B. Site Plan Approval, The site plan has a number of deficiencies in that there are a number of problems in regard to traffic circulation at the entrance, inadequate isle width, parking lot lighting, underground sprinkler system deficiency and internal fare sprinkling system. RECOMENDATI ON.- The staff has studied the applicant's contention that a 4 unit theater is unique because of the staggered hours of showing as compared to the one unit theater, and it appears,, clue to the fact that there will be hours of maximum capacity during a given time period that thiere is little difference between the two concepts in regarld to parking requirements. • 2- • MMAELE + Theater & StartIng Time (In and Out) Capacity 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 #1(385) 385 385 385 385 #2(385) 385 385 385 385 385 #3(550) 550 550 550 550 550 4-,'4(550) . 0 550 Sao 550 550 Total 385 1320 1870 1870 1.485 1485 550 Parking Requirements 1/3 129 440 623 623 495 495 184 1/4 97 330 468 468 372 372 140 it is the opinion of the staff that in the absence of any cl.earcut evidence that the 1 to 3 ratio is prohibitive and the 1 to 4 ratio is adequate, the staff would recommend denial.

Description of Request: The applicant is requesting approval of a 35 foot rear yard setback variance for a parcel 1.ocated at 5801 Major Avenue North BACKGROUND The applicant contends that although the parcel is zoned R5, it is somewhat less than ideal for an apartment site due to size, shape and proximity to County ]P,oad No. 10. They further contend that the ordinance requirements requiring 90° of total building setback creates a hardship in developing the sited One additional consideration is that because the property is in one ownership, it could be considered as part of a unit development and thus negating the need for strict application of ordinance requirements. RECOMMENDATION: The staff is of the opinion that although the site is marginal in respect to required setbacks there is reason to believ<a that if it is integrated with the Twin lake forth Apartmeat project, the setback requirement becomes sozme0hat diminis'h.ed, Parenthetically, it appears that the viability of this variance request is determined by the ability of the appli- cant to integrate the site with the Twin Lake North devel,'?pmont. The staff would therefore recommend approval contingent upon the above conditions and an affirmative action in rezoning of the parcel. PLANNING COMISSION INFOiWATION SHEET • Application No. 70047 Applicant p Viewcon, Inc. Description of Request: Site and building plan approval for a convenience center to be located at 5801 Major Avenue wo- BACKGROUND.- NO-B RECOMENDATION: The plan is in order in regard to the usual conditions as prescribed by the ordinance, and the staff recommends approvai subject to the following special conditions: 1) The ingress and egress curb cut shown on the South- east portion of the parcel be eliminated due to its proximity to the Win Lake North curb cut 28 feet to the east. it is further recormnended that the Twin Lake ingress and egress curb cut on the east be designed in such a manner to provide access to the convenience center. 2) There is . a deficiency in landscaping on the 15 foot green strip at the South portion of the lot and it is recommended that this strip be augmented by additional tree plantings. 3) it is recommended that the opaque fence at the North portion of the parcel be removed and replaced by a strip consisting of either cedar chips or -white rock. augmented by trees or shrubs. i r i� S' r a ra3':t�X;ti��trt:5�n?�uRy aart��n,'sliatrra, ;;L3'd7lYi•'%►w,:�ausa,�.s wastVet. ! �.a�cay5'av SV��+ :uyu+�C-rr ;sip t n e^ ar,>RUSrca-:a�nG�attis��F� !+t APFUCATIOVO- VIEWCON "INC. ytic�3:`-fib+ * �,ses2 �neur�� a,a`.r+ss::s•.ase,«:+ss�vsmnn.I�� _.oeb.�x.'SaCNaYifal.[�M rSYA.�f:e;.<kfvt'm'k4t-aiels.�I lt>asn+lYf:m�:'.SM'y'rti+14'RW?
