Shady wood Road. 3.A trail was proposed on the first site plan to connect Olive Avenue to Shadywood Road. The Park Commission recommended looking at a pedestrian trail between this property and the Culver’s site. The benefit is the trail will provide a direct connection between the Olive neighborhood and the controlled intersection of Shadywood and Shoreline Drive. This provides a safer access than the northern entrance. Concerns with the proposed trail are the longer trail requires additional maintenance. The trail also would require a retaining wall along the pond. The height of the wall will be determined following submission of a grading plan for the site. For safety reasons it would be appropriate to construct a fence along the trail to prevent a pedestrian or bicyclist from falling into the stormwater pond. The landscaping plan for Site Plan #1 shows planting of trees in the green space between the parking lots. Relocating the Trail as shown in Site Plan U2 would eliminate trees from this area. 4. The building height is reduced from 30' to 23' for the site. Issues for Discussion: 1.The proposed 'drugstore* use is not currently a permitted or conditional use in the B-5 District. The applicant has requested an amendment to allow 'drugstore' as a permitted or conditional use in the B-5 District. 2. A variances are required for the following: Section 10.56, Subdivision 16(L) topermithardcovr: -j than 35% hardcover in the North 500-1000' shoreland setback where 12,896 s.f. (35%) is allowed, and to permit greater than 35% hardcover in the South 500-1000' shoreland setback where 3,231 s.f. (35%) is allowed. 3.Section 10.03, Subdivision 19-21 - A Conditional Use Permit is required to allow grading within 5' of the property line. 4.Is the proposed site plan acceptable for parking and circulation, open space, lighting, building design and materials, drive thru lane, trash enclosure, etc.? 0.The City Engineer comments are attached as Exhibit L. In his comments Mr. Kellogg has noted the proposed pond lies outside the property lines, the applicant should provide details as to how the pond can be constructed and how it may impact the existing wetland. The pond is designed to handle the runoff from the subject lot and the adjacent property to the east (O’Sullivan’s/Culver’s). The existing pond was constructed and designed for the O’Sullivan’s property at the time it was developed. A requirement was the pond would be redesigned at the time the Church property redevelops. #256* WaJfred Properties 23SO Shad>A%ood Road Commerciil Site Plin Review April!7^ :000 pag*-2
