The property in question is zoned I-1 and is bounded on the north by Freeway Boulevard; on the east by a vacant parcel planned as an access road; on the south by vacant land planned as the Lombard office park; and on the west by Earle Brown Bowl. Hotels are allowed by special use permit in the I-1 zoning district. The proposed hotel would have access off a private road to the east serving both the hotel site and an office park development to the south. Two accesses off this road are shown, one near the front of the hotel on the north side of the site and one at the southeast corner of the site. A preliminary site plan shows 170 parking stalls. The parking requirement for the hotel is one stall per unit (152) plus one per em- ployee (15) for a total of 167 spaces. Staff recommended that the three extra stalls be eliminated to make larger stalls for recreational vehicles, etc. No parking spaces have been provided for semi -trailers. Three handicapped parking spaces have been shown on the east side of parking lot. Staff recommend that four (at one per 50 spaces or fraction thereof) handicapped stalls be provided adjacent to the build- ing as close to the west entrance as possible. The landscape plan shows shade and coniferous trees around the perimeter of the site, shade trees in the parking lot islands and a mixture of trees and shrubs in the green areas around the building. No landscape schedule has yet been provided. It is pre- sumed that some coordination will be needed between the applicant and Lombard Properties on the landscaping of the private road greenstrip. The grading, drainage, and utility plan shows that the site will drain primarily toward two catch basins along the east side of the site, one located at the southeast corner and one at the main (north) entrance to the site. Staff recommend that some modification be made in the proposed grades to keep drainage from collecting at a major traffic point on the site. Water and sewer connections will both be made directly to City utilities in Freeway Blvd. The City Engineer has requested and received information on estimated sewer flow from the site to determine peak hour input into the City's sanitary sewer system which has a constriction in 65th Avenue North between Humboldt Avenue North and Dupont Avenue North. The City Engineer is making his comments in a separate memo, but is reasonably satisfied that peak sewer flow from the hotel and office developments will fit within the City's prescribed maximum (185 gals./min. during peak hour) because the peaks complement each other over the time of day. The proposed building is to have a brick exterior with a mansard roof. The hotel is proposed as an all -suite hotel with six different types of suites. Eight handicapped units will be provided, all on the first floor. Stairway exiting will be provided on the north and south end of the building and elevators off the lobby area. A hot tub room, sauna and solarium will also be provided on the first floor. A trash enclosure is indicated near the southeast corner of the building. Regarding the special use permit standards from Section 35-280 of the Zoning Ordi- nance (attached), staff see no concern regarding standards ( ) and (b). The hotel's effect on the normal and orderly development of surrounding and is primarily guaged by its impact on available sewer capacity serving this area. On the basis of the 12-17-85 -1- ,J Application No. 85040 continued sewer calculations submitted and the analysis of the City Engineer, staff feel that this standard can also be said to be met. Traffic impact of the proposed development does not significantly affect the peak hour traffic period (446 p.m.) for Freeway Boulevard, Shingle Creek Parkway and Humboldt Avenue North. the special use stan- dards pertaining to commercial uses in the I-1 zoning district in Section 35-330 would seem to be met, especially in lieu of the two other hotOls and the bowling alley and restaurant approved on I-1 parcels south of Freeway'Boulevard. There may also be a concern as to the cummulative effect of all these commercial uses in the I-1 district. Certainly this is a factor, as the need for a sewer flow/capacity analysis shows. But, it seems appropriate to round out the area south of Freeway Boulevard with non -industrial uses since the character of that area is already established as commercial in nature. In lieu of the foregoing, approval is recommended, subject to at least the follow- ing 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 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 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 private access road for this site and the office park to the south shall be constructed in accordance with plans approved under Appli- cation No. 85029 and signed for no parking/fire lane prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy for the hotel. 10. Building plans and operation of the hotel are subject to approval by the City Sanitarian with respect to the whirpools, hot tub, sauna and lodging license. 12-17-85 -2- Application No. 85040 continued 11. The special use permit is subject to all applicable bodes, ordinances, and regulations and any violation thereof shall be ghounds for revocation. 12. The plans shall be modified prior to issuance of permits to indicate: a. Relocation of handicapped parking stalls (4 in number) to the parking area west of the building as close as possible to the west entrance to the building. b. Modification of the grading and drainage plan to indicate collection of drainage in areas other than access drives to the site. 12-17-85 -3- CIVI 1 i ,A Q 3 r 8RARY � QQ v • 63R� LANE N .00 R -�6 / �v v 35+36 2 I r si CITY OF BROOKLYN CENTER 6301 SHINGLE CREEK PARKWAY BROOKLYN CENTER, MINNESOTA 55430 TELEPHONE 561-5440 EMERGENCY - POLICE - FIRE 911 TO: Ron Warren, Director of Plannin and Inspections FROM: H.R. Spurrier, City Engineer ` DATE: December 16, 1985 RE: Site Plan Review - Comfort Inn I have reviewed the site plan of the proposed Comfort Inn. The review covered the following areas of concern: 1. Access to Freeway Boulevard 2. Water service 3. Sanitary sewer service 4. Storm sewer plan 5. Internal circulation Access to Freeway Boulevard is by way of an internal private access road in accordance with the requirements of the final plat of Richardson Addition. Final plans for the access road have not been submitted. Water service is shown on Freeway Boulevard with one on -site fire hydrant. The Fire Marshal should approve the fire hydrant layout since access to the only on -site hydrant is difficult. Sanitary sewer service is sl�own running North to Freeway Boulevard. The sanitary sewer flow rate for Richardson Addition is limited to 185 gallons per minute. The sanitary sewer service must be connected to the line serving the office buildings so that the combined flow can be monitored and controlled, if necessary, at one point. Control may be necessary because there is a significant difference in the peak flow computed by the Plumbing Code (285 gallons per minute) and peak flow computed by using Metropolitan Waste Control Commission daily flow rates (58 gallons per minute). The actual rate is somewhere between these two flow rates. There is a possibility that the allocated peak flow will be exceeded. Therefore, the sanitary sewer service must be connected to the pipe in the Access Road. Storm sewer flow is collected on -site and piped to Freeway Boulevard. Drainage calculations must be submitted to confirm the capacity of laterals on -site. " 7kc Sawetlu cg X aw &ry " December 16, 1985 Page 2 Internal circulation is acceptable for cars. Turning radii are too short for over the road tractor trailers. Based on this review, I recommend approval of the site plan subject to the following conditions: 1. Final plans for the Access Road on Lot 2, Block 1, must be approved by the City Engineer. 2. The access agreement required for the plat of Richardson Addition must be filed with the County. 3. The Fire Marshal shall approve the number and placement of fire hydrants. 4. The sanitary sewer service shall be connected to the sewer main in Lot 2, Block 1, Richardson Addition. 5. The storm sewer design calculations shall be submitted and approved by the City Engineer.

These calculations have been made based upon the following data: 1. Office buildings A & B in Tract C & Tract E will be 94,275 square feet in size. 2. The hotel size will be 152 rooms. 3. The hotel will not have any major water using functions such as a swimming pool, restaurant, bar, etc. The following information was supplied by Ray Ode, MWCC: Maximum Daily Flow - Office 274 gpd/2400 sq.ft. (Net space) Hotel 274 gpd/ 2 rooms Net Office Space = Gross Office Space x 0.87 Peak Daily Flow = 4.0 x Maximum Daily Flow Calculations were made using the above data: Maximum Daily Flow - Offices - 94,275 sq.ft. x 0.87 x 274 gpd : 2400 sq.ft. = 9,363 gpd - Hotel - 152 rooms x 274 gpd : 2 rooms = 20,824 gpd TOTAL - 30,187 gpd Peak Daily Flows - 30,187 gpd x 4.0 - 120,748 gpd - 120,748 gpd : 1,440 minimum per day - 83.8 gpm Alvin R.
