This is being accomplished by loweruig the rear of the site by <br /> about 1' and the front of the site by about 2', ancl relocating lost parking stalls to the south end of <br /> the Iot facuig Highway 12. The parking remains at 102 stalls,meeting the 100-stall requirenient. <br /> Grading Plan Impacts , <br /> As a result of the access changes, the rear 3 buildings will be slightly lower (0.5' typ.) a.nd the <br /> most southerly building will be as much as 2' lower than the prior pl�n. The building designs <br /> have not changed, the buildings are merely dropped along with the fiiushed grade. Additionally, <br /> retaiiuiig walls along the southwest boi.uidary of the site will be reduced in height or eliminated. <br /> Retaining walls along the nortli and east boundaries will be 1-2' higher than previously <br /> indicated. An additional wall east of tlze most southerly build'uig will be added, and the open <br /> fagade facing the seiuor housing building to the east will be more obscured. Building locations <br /> , have shifted slightly in a few instances, but not more than a few feet and all still niore than meet <br /> required setbacks. . <br /> Landscaping <br /> The retaining wall bordering the `welding shop' property will be moved slightly further into that <br /> property leaving a fu115' space for screening plaiitings.A perrrtane�zt easement will. be required <br /> for tlaat wall, atad its ccltimate ownerslaip �n�l maiiateizaizce respo�tsibility s/tould be spelle�i out. <br /> Per new Sheet L1-1, the Landscape Plan now includes a Dwarf Korean Lilac liedge bordering <br /> the parking lot, providing screening fiom headlights.

These have <br /> been forwarded to the City Engineer for consideration. Previous submittals have inclicated a <br /> keystone retaining wall systein proposed for the site. If.bot/t boulder walls c��a.�l keystoi�e fvtt!!s <br /> �re now proposed, t/r.e applica�zts shorcl�l provi�le a site plaiz i�z.rlicating w/zic/t walls are to be <br /> keysto�ze��tfl wlticla are to be boulders. • <br /> • Trash Dumpster Relocated <br /> Applicants have relocated the dumpster to the S W corner of the nortli parking lot, nlak�ng it <br /> somewhat inore accessible for the tenailts. The Landscape Plan shows how it will be screened. A <br /> proposed dLUnpster enclosure design was provided ai the last ineeting - does Plaruiing <br /> Coinrnission find it acceptable? • <br />
