• • • Planning & Zoning Board June 12, 2002 EAM Site Plan Review approved a dumpster without an enclosure; instead four pine trees at the rear of the lot were installed. Since the pine trees are only approximately three feet high and offer no real screening of an otherwise exposed dumpster, and since the previous trash arrangements were made under a previous Ordinance, staff will require that the dumpster be enclosed as required under Section 3, subd. 4.G.2.c of the current ordinance. Sprinkling/Fire Suppression The building is required to be sprinkled. Review of the fire suppression system will be handled as a building inspection issue. CONCLUSION Plans for the original EAM building, approved in 1996, identify an area to the east of the building to be used for future expansion. The current application describes a 5,450 sq.ft. addition to match the original building, for use as repair bays. Staff would recommend approval of the application, with the following conditions: 1.) Proper building permits be obtained prior to any construction. 2.) The City Engineer shall review and approve all necessary grading, utility, and drainage plans: incomplete grading, utility, and drainage issues identified in the memo dated June 6, 2002 from City Engineer Jim Studenski are to be resolved to his satisfaction prior to any City Council review. 3.) Permits be obtained by Rice Creek Watershed prior to any site work or issuance of building permits. 4.) Cut sheets showing a lighting fixture choice meeting City Ordinance (shoebox style, no- spill), as well as a revised photometric lighting plan which reflects the new choice of fixture style, must be submitted prior to City Council review. 5.) Trash/dumpsters must be enclosed within a six -foot high fence or wall. Elevation plans of the enclosure must be submitted prior to City Council review. 6.) A performance agreement shall be prepared, including financial securities, and executed prior to City Council review. OPTIONS 1.) Recommend approval of the Site Plan Review application, with conditions. 2.) Recommend denial of the Site Plan Review application. 3.) Return to staff with direction
