The City Council makes the following findin;s: <br /> A, The 25,620 s.f. addition will be 20' in height, 5' higher than the main body of the <br /> existing building and 5' lower than the highest portion (NW quadrant} of the <br /> existing building. This meets the 40' height limit for the I District. This addition <br /> expands the main buildin� footprii�.t to approximately 202,300 s.f., or 20.4 % of <br /> this 990,000 s.f. site. With the additional 7,250 s.f. of existin; accessory buildings <br /> on the site, structural coverage is si�nificantly below the 45% coverage allo�ved <br /> for the site. The proposed addition will be concrete panels rather than the <br /> concrete block construction of the remainder of the existing buildin�. The tip-up <br /> concrete panels as proposed will provide a higher quality faCade than the building <br /> � it will be attached to, and tlie materials and proposed color are acceptable. The <br /> building addition is not visible from Highway 12 and should not require screening <br /> due to its relatively central location within the site. <br /> B. The attachment will be of exterior materials similar to the pre-finished steel <br /> construction of the existing easterly garage. This is an appropriate corulection <br /> since it would be difficult to make the connection with tip-up panels. The <br /> connection will be virtually invisible from most angles, as it is merely fillin� a 10' <br /> space between two buildings, and will be of the same coloration as those <br /> buildings. The total square footage of the coinbined accessory buildings will be <br /> 7,250 s.f. <br /> C. None of the proposed new parking area is close to lot lines. It is all more than . <br /> 250' from the rear lot line. There is, however, only a limited vegetated buffer <br /> along the south property line; this may disappear when the MnDOT drainageway <br /> along the north side of the new Hwy 12 corridor is finished. The visual impact of <br /> losin� this buffer is not major; there is one house south of the 1? corridor that <br /> would have second-story views of the parking area, from a distance of about 850'. <br /> Lightin� for the new parking will be siiliilar in style, height, etc to the lighting on <br /> the remainder of the site. This is acceptable and is expected to have no impacts <br /> on adjoining residential properties «�hich are all more than 600' distant from the <br /> parkin� area. Additional screenin� of this new storage area does not appear to be <br /> wananied at this time. <br /> PZae � of 8 <br />
