`Melanie Curtis From: Melanie Curtis Sent: Friday, January 23, 2009 11:38 AM To: 'barb@geffreinteriors.com'; 'greg@spensagroup.com' Cc: Lyle Oman Subject: meeting follow up Barb&Greg Thank you for meeting with Lyle Oman and me this week to discuss the potential for Geffre Interiors to occupy space within the existing building at 2687 Wayzata Blvd. Use: Regarding the use,you indicated that it would primarily be Office/Showroom and Office/Warehouse. This level of use is consistent with the allowed uses within the Industrial District. You also indicated a very minimal level of retail sales— lamps,accessories,etc—which would be very incidental to the primary use. The level of retail sales discussed also appears to be acceptable. Any significant increase in the retail sales or advertising intended to draw retail customers to the site would not be permitted. Parking: All required parking/driving areas on the parking lot must be surfaced with asphalt. The number of parking spaces shall be determined by following the Code requirements as follows: 78-827(3) Multi-tenant industrial buildings:One space for each 400 square feet of gross floor area, or the sum of the component gross floor areas as follows, whichever is greater: a. One space for each 200 square feet of office space. b. One space for each 2,000 square feet of warehouse space. c. One space for each 300 square feet of manufacturing, processing, packaging, treatment and assembly space. d. One space for each 500 square feet of space containing machines and equipment for conducting scientific research, testing or experimentation. Signage: A monument sign up to 100 sq.ft. of signage area and building wall signs are permitted. No sign shall extend in height more than six feet above the highest outside wall or parapet of any principal building. No sign shall be located closer than ten feet from any property line. The signage requirements are outlined within the Industrial District code under Section 78-832 as well as 78-1468(5). Feel free to submit a preliminary sign design for review if you have questions. Lyle Oman's comments are pasted directly below: I have reviewed the proposed site plan with the fire chief and his comments are as follows. 1. Maintain 5' setback from building with dumpster 2. Maintain fire lane on east side of building 3. Provide marked access lane to the fire department connection. My only comment is that they need to provide a van accessible parking spot with an 8' wide access aisle. The access aisle could also serve as the access to the fire department connection. 1
