Incomplete Letter Sent: 4/29/OS <br /> Application considered complete: 6/2/OS �'��... <br /> 60-day Deadtine: 8/i/OS <br /> TO: Chair Rahn and Orono Planning Commission Members <br /> Ron Moorse, City Admiiustrator <br /> FROM: Mike Gaffron, Plamiing Director - <br /> DATE: July 14, 2005 <br /> SUBJECT: #OS-3115 WJM Properties LLC (Morries Automotive Group) <br /> - 2605 West Wayzata Boulevard -Aniendment to Industrial Site Plan <br /> -Parking Lot Revisions; Accessory Building Addition—REVISED PLAN <br /> Application Summary: At the June PC meeting, WJM Properties' request was approved 6-0 <br /> for a CUP Amendment and revisions to their Industrial Site Plan approval, for an expanded <br /> parking area south of the existing main lot, and construction of an addition to the existing <br /> accessory building south of the principal structure (see attached Notice of Planning <br /> Conunission Action). Applicant has since decided to re-orient the building addition north- <br /> south rather than east-west. Staff concluded that bringing this back to Planning Commission <br /> for fiirther review was more a ro riate than sendina it on to Council without PC in ut. <br /> List of Exhibits: <br /> A—Revised Plan <br /> B—Notice of Plaiming Commission Action 7-1-OS <br /> C—Memo and Exhibits of June 16, 2005 <br /> Revised Plan <br /> The revised plan is attached as Exhibit A. The 50' x 100' garage addition is now oriented north- <br /> south, extending westward from the west end of the existing building. The parkuig lot apron <br /> serving the garage has been revised slightly to accomodate the new orientation. The area of <br /> impervious surface is actually about 925 s.f. less than that initially proposed. Visually, the � <br /> building will be no more visible froin Highway 12 or from adjacent properties than the prior <br /> orientation. <br /> Items for Consideration <br /> 1. The 5,000 s.f. addition and the 1,875 s.f. existing detached garage will be required to <br /> have matching facade materials/colors to appear as a single building rather than an old <br /> wing and a new wing. <br /> 2. Are there any other specific concerns with the proposed garage and parking lot addition? <br /> Staff Recommendation <br /> Staff recommends approval per the conditions attached to tlie June 20 recoimnendation. <br /> NOTE: The revised site p[an received 7-14-05 shows 2 pro�osed 60' flag poles. These require a separate <br /> CUP application,have not been �ublished for,and cannot be approved as part of the current application. <br />
