Proof of Parking. <br />Proof of Parking is allowed by Conditional Use Permit where the applicants show that <br />actual parking demand will be significantly (at least 20 %) less than the code <br />requirements. In this case, the parking calculation for the building (after expansion) is <br />calculated by the applicants to be 171 parking stalls by code. The applicant has <br />provided a paved and curbed parking area totaling 93 spaces reflecting their anticipated <br />actual demand, with 78 "proof of parking" stalls north of the building. This area is <br />otherwise expected to be left undisturbed. <br />The applicant has also supplied a landscaping plan that shows tree and shrub plantings <br />along the west and south boundaries of the property, retaining the existing wooded area <br />to the east, and reseeding the lot to the north depending on the limits of construction. <br />Lighting is proposed to be accomplished with 4 wall- mounted fixtures on the west side <br />of the addition. <br />The primary concern with the site plan relates to the paved area north of the existing <br />building, to which an overhead door is provided from the addition, and from the north <br />side of the existing building. There is no planned street access to this area, which is <br />currently accessed via a driveway to Spruce Street. The applicants should verify that <br />this area does not need street access to operate as planned. Otherwise, a temporary <br />paved driveway through the proof of parking area should be required, at minimum. <br />Lot Combination. <br />The lot combination is necessary to accommodate the expansion, since a portion of the <br />addition, a northern access drive, and the proof of parking area site on the northerly <br />parcel. Such combinations are often approved administratively, however, the northern <br />parcel is currently occupied by a legal non - conforming billboard. Administrative <br />combinations may only occur where the parcels involved contain only one building. The <br />existing billboard would count as a "building" in this case, and as such, requires full <br />Planning Commission and City Council review. <br />The parcels in question are zoned Industrial Park. Under recent statutory changes, the <br />city is not empowered to require removal of a legal non - conformity as a condition of a <br />permit or other approval. The only option for the City to correct the non - conforming <br />condition would be through an interim use permit or PUD approval. Apart from <br />resolution of this issue, the lot combination does not appear to present any issues. <br />The City Engineer has reviewed the plans and made recommendations related to <br />grading, drainage, and related improvements. A final review with respect to any <br />required easements (or easement vacations, if applicable) should be included as a part <br />of the City's approval of the combination. <br />
