W5-3085 February 22.2005 Page 2 of 5 Background 'I'he building department was notified that work was being conducted in the lower level, rear vacant space of tlic Overson building located at 3445/3455 Shoreline Drive. Upon an inspection, the building department was notified that Jul Ann Hair Fashions from across the street would be relocating to this space. At tliis time City staff researched all files associated with this address to verify if legal occupancy of this space ever occuned. While staff recognizes that the space has been occupied in the past, legal occupancy must be obtained by Jul Ann, Inc. prior to the relocation and that this must occur through a commercial site plan review process. The owners of Jul Ann Hair Fashions have been conducting work on the space, which doesn't require a building/plumbing/mcchanical permit, with the understanding that it would be at her own risk until formal approval is obtained. B -1 Site Plan Analysis The applicant has proposed to convert the existing lower level rear vacant space into a beauty shop per the proposed floor plan attached as Exhibit E. Typically permitted uses do not require Planning Commission or City Council approval unless a building permit is requested. The applicants have stated that they will not require any permits, howevci staff has required an occupancy permit which is the reason for the commercial site plan review. Building and Planning Department staff felt that due to the various uses existing in the past, probably without ever needing a building permit, there may be some justification to allow .some type of use within this space. However, the proper site planning review procedures must take place to ensure that the site not only complies with the uses allowed, but with performance standards such as parking, access, and signage since these issues are affected as difference businesses come and go on any particular site. The purpo.se of this commercial site plan review is to verify adequate parking, safe and legal access, signage in accordance with the sign regulations as well as u general review of the existing non-changeables such as setbacks, structural coverage and hardcover.
