Twin City Fab, Inc. August 9, 2000 page 2 • Building The building footprint is approximately 19,200 sf, roughly 160' x 120'. The building will be 21' high except in the back (north side), where the ground elevation will be lower by seven feet to provide for loading three docks. Precast concrete panels will form the exterior walls. Most of the building will be fabricating/warehouse space. Offices in the southwest portion will comprise about 2040 sf. The trash area will be attached to the back of the building and enclosed by concrete block walls and prefinished metal panel gates. The two areas noted as "future expansion" are not part of this review. Any additions to the building will require a new site plan review and, possibly, an amendment to the storage CUP. • Lighting Light fixture locations are shown on submitted plans as shoebox fixtures on the building walls. The submitted photometric plan showing site lighting intensity indicates that the project complies with the maximum of one foot candle at the street centerline. The shoebox fixtures will ensure lighting is directed downward and not up into the night sky. • Signage The only signage shown on the submittals is on the front facade. Signage is govemed by the City's sign ordinance and permits are required for all signs. All signs will be reviewed with the sign permit applications. • Landscaping TC Fab and Marmon Keystone to the west are coordinating their landscape plans. The landscaping plan includes native and non - native plantings, plowing of compacted soils before seeding, and other elements in accordance with the environmental management plan. The Environmental Specialist's memo is attached. • Utilities Sanitary sewer and water service exist on the north edge of the site. This site will connect to the existing facilities. (The City vacated the 74th St. right of way on May 22 but retained a drainage and utility easement.) Stormwater management on this site includes a pond shared by the property on the west. This common pond will serve both sites. Some of the stormwater facilities on the Twin City Fab site will be constructed by Twin City Fab's contractor, while some will be constructed by the current land owner as part of the ponding for the neighboring site and land to the west of that. This requires coordination of design and construction. • •
