Minnesota 55323 * Municipal Office* On the North Shore of Lake Minnetonka October 18, 1979 Mr. Robert Pope Pope Associates, Inc. 533 St. Clair Avenue Saint Paul, Minnesota 55102 Kr. David Delaney 4800 Casamita Road Excelsior, Minnesota 55331 Re: #491 First National Bank of Navarre Dear Messrs. Pope and Delaney: As you are aware, the Council tabled your building plan review at their October 16, 1979 meeting with the following comments: 1. From cursory review of the proposal, the building size appears too large or too ambitious for the size of the property to conform to the zoning requirements, specifically the parking. 2. The terms of the zoning ordinance are not negotiable and must be complied with as far as determining required yard areas, setbacks, and number and size of parking spaces based upon correct "net" building area. ' 3. The Council will not spend any additional time in building plan review until the plans are revised to meet code requirements and all submittals are assembled in one package for complete review and approval of the staff prior to sending back to the Council. 4. The Council will not consider any rezoning which means that all commercial activities must be accomplished within the 250* B-4 District• At our meeting Wednesday afternoon, I believe that we solved all of the Council's concerns by reviewing the building area calculations, parking requirements and by adjusting the parking layout and subdivision proposal as follows: 1. Net building area was calculated as per 38.150 resulting in 81.56% building efficiency and 58.06 required parking stalls. The parking will be designed to accommodate between 59 and 63 cars, all of which are at least 9 X 20 stalls (except the 2 12 X 20 handicap stalls). 1I
