They find no problea with the alghting diatance at the corner because of the height of the aign and the fact that it is placed at least 1C* to 12* out of the travelled right-of-way of the roadway* because of the width of the walking path and boulevard area. Once again both County and City staffs see no problen with the locatiwi of the parking area couencing at the aero setback line. The County haa agreed to install a )* bltuwlnoua curb between the parking area and the ceMnt walk. The buaper will aerve to provide the additional area for the overhang of the car buwpera along eaat and north lot lines. The applicant awat explain the hardship that would requi»'e the reduction in area of the required stall site at V x 20*. Review the required parking atandards below: Total area of structure ■ 14,144 sq. ft. (reduce by lOi for hallways, offices, non-coa®ercisl/wsrehouse storage areas • 15,178 sq. Requirad parking for net floor area 15,174 aq. ft. of retail space 1 stall for each 150 aq. ft. of net t loor sren 9* X 20* Stslls - «*5* X 20* Stslls - Required Existing Proposed Proposed 101 Stalls 122 Stslls 107 Stslls 114 Stalls The 9* X 20* plan clearly satisfies the required nusber of stalls for the use. Staff has discussed the spplicsnts request to reduce the required stall size to 6'5* x 20* with the engineer. Cook has stated that it doss work when it is necessary to tighten up on parking areas and it ^ uiually carried out by double striping the sides of the lisited stall. The double stripes force the driver to tighten up within the parking ares. needed? Staff has never received s report of any problew with the parking not setiafying the existing use level. If at aose tl«a in tha tht applicant has definite expansion plans, then staff would advise that we reconsider the request to reduce the stall sits. Staff would also auggast that there is additional area within the far aoutheast corner of the property that could be developed into additional parking. Also be aware that the City is looking at the posaible redevelopment and rezoning within the area of Navarre and thia may result in a more comprehensive plan to provide additional parking within the downtoi^n area of Navarre. Staff Recommendation - Staff would recommend approval of the setback variance of 7' for the relocation of the pylon sign, to approve the zero foot setback for the parking area adjacent to the north and east lot lines.
