FILE #LA20-000001 February 18, 2020 Page 2 of 3 Building height. Due to the mini gable added above the main entrance, the building height as included in the Architectural drawings (Exhibit B) exceeds the defined height of 30 feet by 1 foot, 9 7/8 inches. The applicant has provided a revised drawing (Exhibit B-1) meeting the requirement. Staff will confirm the height with full revised drawings, due prior to City Council review. Parking. The final site plan shows changes to the parking lot. The entrance off of Kelley Parkway shifted approximately 30 feet to the west; this generally lines up with the entrance to the Public works garage. This further altered the parking lot layout, but the number of spaces remain the same. Guest rooms. The original approval included one guest room. The revised plans show 2. The amount of interior storage areas is generally the same. Number and types of units. The original approval included 30 two bedroom apartments, and 26 single bedroom apartments. That distribution remains, though the variety in the 1 bedroom apartment layouts slightly changed. Landscaping.
