Location: 1801 67th Avenue North Request: Site and Building Plan Location/Use The applicant requests site and building plan approval to construct a 6,666 sq. ft. addition to the existing 10,000 sq. ft. Johnson Controls building at 1801 67th Avenue North. The property in question is zoned I-1 and is bounded by 67th Avenue on the north, by James Avenue on the east, by the Northwestern Bell maintenance building on the south, and by the Coachman Industrial building on the west. The use of the building is a combination of office and warehouse or storage space. Most of the addition is to be devoted to office space. The Johnson Controls use is considered to be a permitted use in the I-1 zoning district. Access/Parking The site has one access off 67th Avenue North and one access off James Avenue North. The access off James Avenue is being moved about 10' south of its current location so as to make it easier for trucks to exit the site from the new loading dock on the east side of the building. The proposed building utilization is 11,872 sq. ft. of office space (59.36 parking spaces at 1 per 200 sq. ft.) and 4,794 sq. ft. of warehouse space (5.99 spaces at 1 per 800 sq. ft.) for a total parking requirement of 65.35 or 65 spaces. The proposed site plan provides for a total of 65 parking spaces including 2 handicapped stalls near the new south entrance. Johnson Controls utilizes a number of vans which are driven to and from work by employees. The vans are not stored on the site and, therefore, represent no additional parking demand. Landscaping The site in question is 60,450 sq. ft. or approximately 1.4 acres. The point requirement for this site under the landscape point system is 104 points. The site presently has 73.5 points worth of landscaping including six (6) Summit Green Ash trees. The landscape plan calls for 81.5 additional points by providing a variety of new plantings, including two Imperial Honey Locust trees in the green area immediately south of the building, two Sugar Maples at either end of the row of parking east of the building and a Greenspire Linden just north of the loading dock. The plan also proposes a number of various shrubs in planting beds adjacent to the south and east walls of the building addition and in a planting bed along the north side of the existing building. Grading/Drainage/Utilities The proposed grading and utility plan calls for no new utility installations except an 8" storm sewer line to convey roof drainage to an existing storm sewer line in the parking lot in front of the 10-18-90 1 Application No. 90027 continued access off James Avenue North. The new parking lot area along the south side of the site will drain eastward to the existing paved area and into an existing catch basin east of the building. No new water or sewer lines are proposed. It is recommended that a concrete pad or heavier bituminous be provided in the loading dock area. The applicant's architect has also been advised that B612 curb and gutter is required around all parking and driving areas. New curbing will, therefore, have to be B612 type. Building The proposed floor plan shows that the majority of the new addition will be devoted to an open engineering department with an unspecified number of work stations. There will also be an expansion of the storage area for "consigned material." The building exterior materials are to match the existing exterior treatment. The background treatment is to be 12" concrete block, matching existing coursing. Sections of split -faced ribbed block will be interspersed with anodized aluminum windows on the west elevation. Larger windows will be provided on the south and east elevations to allow natural light into the office area of the addition. An entryway with an air lock is proposed in the side of the addition. Lighting/Trash The site presently has no exterior site lighting and none is proposed as this is basically a daytime use. The City has no minimum lighting standards. We are not aware of any security problems at this location. A trash enclosure is not indicated on the plans. The architect has indicated that an enclosure will be placed near the southwest corner of the building. It should be kept in mind that required parking spaces may not be used for the location of dumpsters and that an opaque screening device is required. Recommendation Altogether, the proposed plans appear to be in order and approval is recommended, subject to at least the following conditions: 1. Building plans are subject to review and approval by the Building Official with respect to applicable codes prior to the issuance of permits. 2. Grading, drainage, utility and berming plans are subject to review and approval by the City Engineer, prior to the issuance of permits. 10-18-90 2 Application No. 90027 continued 3. A site performance agreement and supporting financial guarantee (in an amount to be determined by the City Manager) shall be submitted prior to the issuance of permits. 4. Any outside trash disposal facilities and rooftop mechanical equipment shall be appropriately screened from view. 5. The building is to be equipped with an automatic fire extinguishing system to meet NFPA standards and shall be connected to a central monitoring device in accordance with Chapter 5 of the City Ordinances. 6. An underground irrigation system shall be installed in all landscaped areas to facilitate site maintenance. 7. Plan approval is exclusive of all signery which is subject to Chapter 34 of the City Ordinances. 8. B612 curb and gutter shall be provided around all parking and driving areas. 9. The property owner shall enter in an Easement and Agreement for Maintenance and Inspection of Utility and Storm Drainage Systems prior to the issuance of permits.

THE WORK The Developer has received approval of its Development Plans by the City Council of the.. City (pursuant to City Ordinances), subject to the execution of this Performance Agreement, pursuant to the laity Council approval of October 29, 1990 and in accordance with said Development Plans all of which are made a part hereof by reference. In consideration of such approval, the Developer, its successors and assigns, does covenant and agree to perform the work as set forth in the Development Plans, in the aforesaid Approval, and as hereinafter set forth, upon the real estate described as follows: 1801 67th Avenue North The Work shall consist of the improvements described in the Development Plans, in the aforesaid Approval (to include any approved subsequent amendments) and shall be in compliance with all applicable Statutes, Codes and Ordinances of the City. COMPLETION DATE The undersigned Developer agrees that the said Work shall be completed in its entirety on or before the 1st_day of December 1991 , and no extension of time shall be valid un- less the same shall be approved in writing by the City Manager. Said extension of time shall be valid whether approved by the City Manager before or after the completion date and failure of the City to extend the time for completion or to exercise other remedies hereunder shall in no way work a forfeiture of the City's rights hereunder, nor shall any extension of time actually granted by the City Manager work any forfeiture of the City's rights hereunder. It shall be the duty of the Developer to notify the City of completion of the Work at least 10 days prior to the Completion Date and to call for final inspection by employees of the City. MAINTENANCE The Performance Agreement, in its entirety, shall remain in full force and effect for a period of one year after actual completion of the Work to determine that the useful life of all Work performed hereunder meets theaverage standard for the particular industry, profession, or material used in the performance of the work. Any work not meeting such standard shall not be deemed complete hereunder. Notice of the date of Actual Completion shall be given to the Developer by the Director of Planning and Inspection of the City. FINANCIAL GUARANTEE The Developer agrees to furnish the City with a Financial Guarantee in the form of a cash escrow, a bond issued by an approved corporate surety licensed to do business in the State of Minnesota and executed by the Developer as principal, or other Financial Guarantee as approved by the City Manager of the City, in the amount of $24,000.00 . Such Financial Guarantee shall continue in full force and effect until the City Council shall have by motion approved and accepted all of the Work undertaken to be done, and shall thereby have released the Surety and/or Developer from any further liability; provided however, that the City Council may by motion reduce the amount of the Financial Guarantee upon partial completion of the work, as certified by the City Manager. Such Financial Guarantee shall be conditioned upon the full and faithful performance of all elements of this Agreement and upon compliance with all applicable Statutes, Codes, and Ordinances of the City, and shall further be subject to the following provisions which shall be deemed to be incorporated in such Financial Guarantee and made a part thereof. NOTICE The City shall be required to give prior notice to the corporate surety and the Developer of any default hereunder before proceeding to enforce such Financial Guarantee or before the City undertakes any work for which the City will be reimbursed through the Financial Guarantee. Within 10 days after such notice to it, the surety shall notify the City in writing of its in- tention to enforce any rights it might have under this Performance Agreement or any Performance Bond by stating in writing the manner in which the default will be cured and the time within which such default will be cured, said time not to exceed 60 days unless approved by the City. (over please) REMEDIES FOR BREACH At any time after the Completion date and any extensions thereof, or during the Maintenance Period, if any of the work is deemed incomplete, the City Council may proceed in any one or more of the following ways to enforce the undertakings herein set forth, and to collect any and all overhead expenses incurred by the City in connection therewith, including but not limited to engineering, legal, planning and litigation expenses, but the enumeration of the remedies here- under shall be in addition to any other remedies available to the City. 1) Completion by the City. The City, after notice, may proceed to have the Work done either by contract, by day labor, or by regular City forces, and neither the Developer nor the Corporate Surety may question the manner of doing such work or the letting of any such contracts for the doing of any such work. Upon completion of such Work the Surety and/or the Developer shall promptly pay the City the full cost thereof as aforesaid. In the event that the Financial Guarantee is in the form of a Performance Bond, it shall be no defense by the Surety that the City has not first made demand upon the Developer, nor pursued its rights against the Developer. 2) Specific Performance. The City may in writing direct the Surety or the Developer to cause the Work to be undertaken and completed within a specified reasonable time. If the Surety and/or the Developer fails to cause the Work to be done and completed in a manner and time acceptable to the City, the City may proceed in an action for Specific Performance to require such work to be undertaken. 3) Deposit of Finacial Guarantee. In the event that the Financial Guarantee has been submitted in the form of a Performance Bond, the City may demand that the Surety deposit with the City a sum equal to the estimated cost of completing the work, plus the City's estimated overhead expenses as defined herein, in- cluding any other costs and damages for which the Surety may be liable hereunder, but not exceeding the amount set forth on the face of the Performance Bond, which money shall be deemed to be held by the City for the purpose of reimbursing the City for any costs incurred in completing the Work as hereinbefore specified, and the balance shall be returned to the Surety. This money shall be deposited with the City within 10 days after written demand therefor, and if the Surety fails to make the required deposit within 10 days, the City shall have the right to proceed against the Surety with whatever legal action is required to obtain the deposit of such sum. 4) Funds on Deposit. In the event that the Financial Guarantee is in the form of cash, certified check, or other arrangement making the Financial Guarantee im- mediately accessible to the City, the City may, after notice to the Developer, deposit the Financial Guarantee in its General Account. The City may then pro- ceed to complete the Work, reimburse itself for the cost of completion as de- fined hereunder, and return the balance to the Developer. PRnrrnl IRFq A copy of this Performance Agreement shall be attached to the Corporate Surety Bond, if any, and reference to this Performance Agreement shall be made in any such bond, but no corporate surety shall assert as a defense to performance hereunder, any lack of reference in the bond to this Performance Agreement.
