July 12,1996 Page 7 #2154 John O'Sullivan. 2380 Shadywood Road - Sketch Plan Review 111. Commercial Site Plan - Preliminary (Conceptual) Review This conceptual review is intended to perform two functions: A. Raise potential concerns and issues with the site plan submitted by the applicant in the context of B-5 zoning. Assist applicant in understanding the variety of information necessar>' in proceeding with a formal rezoning/vacation/commercial site plan review' application. B. 1. B-5 Performance Standards . - Lot Area. Width : Upon legal combination, the property will meet the required 20,000 s.f. area and 100' width standards of the B-5 zone. Building Setbacks: Required building setbacks are 15' from a side lot line, and 35' from front, rear, side street and 'R' District lot lines. The proposed setback from Olive Avenue to the Office building scales out at approximately 13' where a 35 ’ setback is required. If the vacation of Navarre Lane does not occur, the Bank will also have to be relocated to meet a 35' side street setback. - Yard Requirements : Required yards ore 20' front, 30' rear, 15' side yard adjacent to 'R' District, 10' side yard adjacent to street. The primary impact is that off-street parking is not allowed within the required front yard, but is allowed to within 10' of a side lot line abutting an 'R' District and within 10' of a rear lot line abutting an 'R' District. A 10' front yard variance is required under the current parking proposal. "Through-Lot" Status: This property is considered a 'through' lot by definition (Section 10.02. Def 42) and has two front lot lines for applying the zoning chapter; this has an impact in the parking setback requirement, in that off street parking will not be allowed within the 20' of the Olive Avenue right-of-way (Proposed plan meets this requirement). Fencing : Code requires a fence or compact evergreen hedge no less than 50% opaque nor less than 6 feet in height along the lot lines abutting an 'R' District, except within the required front yard. Question: Given the definition of the Olive Avenue frontage as a front lot line, will the City require screening along that lot line? The site plan submitted for the formal application should include a landscaping and screening plan. Building Design and Construction : Exterior wall finish requirements of Section 10.44 Subd. 6(G) must be met (Requires face brick, natural stone, textured precast concrete or equivalent). - Drainage : The site plan incorporates use of a stormwater pond used jointly with the restaurant parcel, located on the church site.
