Approved � Denied thi s �_'_' "day of ' � � : 19 with the following g amendment: P/I Form No. 18 (over please) Planning Commission Information Sheet Application No. 88005 Applicant: Bernard Herman Architects (for Milavetz & Associates) Location: 1915 57th Avenue North Request: Site and Building Plan Location/Zoning The applicant requests site and building plan approval to construct a solarium addition to the south side of the office building at 1915 57th Avenue North. The property in question is zoned C2 and is bounded on the north by 57th Avenue North, on the east by Superamerica service station, on the south by single-family homes, and on the west by a vacant C2 zoned lot (Warner Hardware is the next building to the west) . (There is a vacant portion of the property to the east of the building which will most likely be subdivided off in the future) . Office buildings are a permitted use in the C2 zone. Access/Parking The site is served by two accesses onto 57th Avenue North. From inside of curb to inside of curb, the accesses are 44' apart. This is substandard in the C2 zoning district. However, it is an existing condition and it appears there is no way of meeting the 50' separation requirement without destroying the parking layout on the site. We, therefore, recommend no change at this time. With the new addition and basement remodeling, there will be 4,021 sq. ft. of office space within the building which requires 20 parking stalls. The remaining area -1,983 sq. ft. - is to be used for storage and mechanical rooms. At one space per 800 sq. ft., this requires an additional 2.4 stalls. The site plan calls for 23 stalls total to meet both requirements. Landscaping Existing landscaping on the site is rather generous. There are 25 existing Ash and Locust trees (250 points), seven decorative trees (10.5 points) and seven coniferous trees (42 points). The total point value of the existing trees exceeds the point requirement for the entire site (125 points) , including the vacant area to the east. No additional landscaping has been proposed. Grading/Drainage/Utilities The site presently drains to the street (57th Avenue North) with no on -site storm sewer. Anew storm sewer is to be constructed in the 57th Avenue North right-of-way in conjunction with a road reconstruction project for Logan Avenue North to handle drainage on 57th Avenue North that affects Logan. The parking lot is bounded by B6 straight curb with no gutter. A slight modification is required at the southwest corner of the lot to provide for s sixth parking stall on the west side of the lot. Straight B6 curb should be used to replace the existing curb at that location. Building The solarium addition is to be a glass enclosure along the middle 44' 8" of the south wall. There is to be an open waiting room and a conference room at the upper floor level of the building. Stairs leading down to a central courtyard will descend from both ends of the solarium. New windows on the south side in the lower level of the building will be installed, providing daylight to a bookkeeping room in the lower level. The base of the waiting and conference areas is to be painted rock face block. The existing building is brick. 6-16-88 -1- Application No. 88005 continued The upper level (main floor) of the existing building is not fire sprinklered at this time, though the lower level is fire sprinklered. Fire sprinkling of both the upper level and the solarium addition will be required as part of the new construction project to bring the entire building into conformance with the City's fire code. Lighting/Trash There are two existing light poles near the front entrance to the building which provide illumination of the front parking lot. No additional outside lighting is proposed. There are no outside trash containers either and none are proposed. Recommendation Altogether, the 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. 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. Plan approval is exclusive of all signery which is subject to Chapter 34 of the City Ordinances. 7. Straight B6 curb shall be provided around all parking and driving areas. 8. The owner of the property shall enter into easement agreements for utilities and drainage and for a trailway across the property prior to the issuance of permits. 6-16-88 -2- INS �-Vi W-A A! r r Y DECLARATION OF COVENANTS This declaration is made this 27th day of _ 19 881 by Robert J.
