Consideration: O -- lq ?,el Approved bl Denied this day of c,� U--=-� 19 subject to the following conditions: Chairman - ------------------------------------------ ---- CITY COUNCIL ACTION Dates of Council Consideration: Approved Denied this day of 19 with the following amendment: 777 / Clerk P/I Form No. 18 (over please) Planning Commission Information Sheet Application No.84020 Applicant: Randy Rau Location: 6849 Brooklyn Boulevard, 4401 69th Avenue North Request: Site and Building Plan/Special Use The applicant requests site and building plan and special use permit approval to construct a service station and superette at the site of the existing Mobil Station and superette at 6849 Brooklyn Boulevard and 4401 - 69th Avenue North. Briefly, the proposal calls for the demolition of the existing Mobil Station, the conversion of the existing superette to a service garage with two repair bays, and the construction of a new 2,160 sq. ft. superette to the east of the existing superette building. In addition, the two gas pump islands on the site will be removed and a single island installed in front of the superette. The property in question is zoned C2 and is bounded on the north by 69th Avenue North, on the east by Brooklyn Boulevard, on the south by the old A & W Restaurant, and on the west by the U. S. Post Office. Gasoline service stations offering for sale items other than fuels, lubricants or automotive parts and accessories are special uses within the C2 zoning district and are subject to the standards set forth in Section 35-220,Subsect ion 2 (attached). The parking requirement for the proposed use is a combination of the service station formula and the retail formula. These formulas require 3 spaces per service bay, plus one for each day shift employee, plus two spaces for service vehicles. This works out to 11 spaces for two service bays and three employees and two service vehicles. The retail formula for this size building is 11 spaces for the first 1,000 sq. ft. of gross floor area, plus 8 spaces for each additional 1,000 sq. ft. The retail superette is to be 2,160 sq. ft. This works out to 20 parking spaces, based on the above formula. The proposed site plan calls for 31 parkingspaces, including 4 at the pump island. Counting the,spaces at the pump island, which meet the requirements for parallel parking stalls, the plan meets the combined requirement of the service station and retail formulas. Access to the site will be limited to one opening off 69th Avenue North and one opening off Brooklyn Boulevard. This will result in the closing of one opening onto Brooklyn Boulevard closest to the intersection. The existing opening onto 69th Avenue North is 38' wide measured along the right-of-way line. Section 35-703 of the Zoning Ordinance limits such accesses to a width of 30'. The existing access should, therefore, be narrowed. The plan does take into account dedication of 8' of additional right-of-way along 69th Avenue North and parking and greenstrip areas are adjusted accordingly. The proposed landscape plan provides for a 15' wide greenstrip along 69th Avenue North along Brooklyn Boulevard. There is a 10' wide sidewalk easement within the greenstrip along Brooklyn Boulevard. Sidewalks are normally located within right- of-way; however, there is considerable precedent for allowing sidewalks within greenstrip areas along Brooklyn Boulevard because this roadway has been widened from its original two-lane status. Plantings proposed in the landscape plan include 5 Marshall Ash, 4 Black Hills Spruce and 2 Radiant Crab, all within the 15' greenstrip area adjacent to public rights -of -way. Two of the Spruce are indicated in a location that falls within the site triangle at 69th and Brooklyn Boulevard and should be relocated outside it. Underground irrigation has not been noted on the plans, but this requirement has been discussed with the applicant. 6-14-84 -1- Application No. 84020 continued No grading and drainage plan has yet been submitted. It is anticipated that at least one new catch basin may be needed in the northeast corner of the site in lieu of the closing of an access drive in that area. The City Engineer has directed a letter to the applicant's designers (attached) outlining a number of concerns regarding grading and drainage and regarding the preliminary plat. The Commission is referred to that letter for further background. The plan does not presently note that B612 curb and gutter shall be provided around all parking and driving areas; however, the applicant is aware of this requirement and has sought no exclusion. As stated at the beginning of this report, the existing service station will be demolished and the new construction will include: 1) remodeling the existing superette into a service garage; 2) constructing a new 36' x 60' superette attached to the east wall of the converted service garage; and 3) constructing a canopy over a new, relocated pump island to the north of the superette. The exterior of the combined building will be a mixed red brick on the north and east elevations and partially on the south and west elevations. The majority of the south and west elevations will be a rock -faced concrete block, painted to match the dominant tone in the brick. The Commission should review the proposed exterior in light of the City's basic policy of consistent treatment. Around the entire building will be a buff -colored facia with sand -spray panels. A 4' wide canopy will extend over a sidewalk on the north and east sides of the building. The proposed canopy is to be 30' x 50' located 10' north of the canopy. As to site lighting, there is one freestanding light adjacent to the 69th Avenue access that is within the public right-of-way. Another freestanding light which illuminates the area of one of the pump islands and will also have to be relocated when the property line along 69th is shifted southward by 8'. In addition, there is a freestanding light adjacent to the north access on Brooklyn Boulevard which will be closed. This light will probably serve little purpose at this location and should be removed. There is to be lighting within the canopy structures in front of the building and over the pump islands. The entire structure will be fire-sprinklered in accordance with City Ordinances. As to the special use standards, it should be emphasized that the proposed use is little more than a consolidation and upgrading of uses that have existed in this location for some time. There does not seem to have been a detrimental effect on surrounding land uses and none is anticipated in the future. The primary concern in this case is whether standard (d) is met by the provision of 31 parking stalls, including 4 at the pump island. This issue has been briefly discussed by the Commission and the conclusion was that pump island parking may be credited to retail parking requirements though not service station requirements. Staff would also point out that the access modifications contained in the proposed plan and staff recommendations are the best possible arrangement for this site. We, there- fore, believe that standard (d) is met in this case. In general, the proposed plan does meet basic requirements and approval is recom- mended, 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. 6-14-84 -2- Application No.84020 continued 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 to assure completion of approved site improvements. 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 land- scaped 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. Freestanding lightposts within public right-of-way shall be relocated onto private property. The freestanding lights adjacent to existing pump islands or accesses to be closed shall be removed during construction of the project. 10. Landscape plantings shall not be installed in the site triangle at the southwest corner of 69th Avenue North and Brooklyn Boulevard. 11. The special use permit is subject to all applicable codes, ordinances and regulations and any violation thereof shall be grounds for revocation. 12. Plan approval is subject to the recommendations contained in the City Engineer's letter to M. V. Rich Company dated June 7, 1984 13. The final plat combining the parcels shall be filed at the County prior to issuance of any building permit for construction of the new superette building. 6-14-84 -3- X- L x SCHOOL N", U- �'A,N Ld < T cr x 7—� 4L I L L AN Fj: I L.; p A R K I y X -�k ItK D y ---V; 3 3 4, A.
