MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION MARCH 12, 1992 Drabik asked about shift hours. Burrows replied that the first production shift runs from 7 A.M. until 3 P.M. The second shift runs from 3 P.M. until 11 P.M. Office hours overlap, those being 8 A.M. until 5 P.M. Pedersen asked about elevations as well as facade treatments. Burrows replied that those details have not yet been worked out. Development plans are being drawn up and should be presented to the Commission in April. However, the direction from the client is to have the same quality development as exists at Lillihei Plaza. Keis pointed out the Planner's comments for a connection between the two parking lots. Burrows reported that St. Jude is willing to study this recommendation. However, they are at a point where they cannot sacrifice any wetland area. Burrows pointed out that the traffic to the site will be mainly employee traffic. Parking spots can be assigned, and this would alleviate the Planner's concern that someone driving into one parking lot and not finding any space available would have to exit back onto County Road B and then enter the other parking lot. Carson asked about underground parking. Burrows replied that underground parking would be cost prohibitive. Pedersen asked about the size of previous development proposals for this site. The City Planner replied that the last proposal was significantly larger than the St. Jude proposal, with a total of about 250,000 square feet. The previous proposal took up about 80 to 85% of the site, while this one takes up about 50 %. Burrows pointed out that after development there would be 62% of the site in green space. Building area would cover about 6% of the site, parking about 18% and wetlands about 11 %. There was no one from the general public present wishing to comment on this matter. Garske recommended approval of the rezoning of the property at 177 East County Road B from R -1 to PUD, and Page 7
