• • • j• Main Street Village page 13 Storage of furniture shall not be permitted outdoors between November 1 and March 31. Outdoor furniture that is immovable or permanently fixed or attached to the sidewalk shall not be subject to the storage prohibition of this section. However, any immovable or permanently fixed or attached furniture must be approved as part of the administrative permit application. We have no furniture information. Additional off - street parking shall be required pursuant to the requirements set forth in Section 3, Subd. 5 of this Ordinance based on the additional seating area provided by the outdoor dining area. No additional parking was added in the shared parking analysis for patio areas. It may not be appropriate to do so on this project, though this is not yet determined. k. Refuse containers are provided for self - service outdoor dining areas. Such containers shall be placed in a manner which does not disrupt pedestrian circulation, and must be designed to prevent spillage and blowing litter. We have no information. It would be appropriate to require additional information about the outdoor seating areas. However, as this project is a PUD, the outdoor seating areas can be approved using flexibility from the strict provisions of the zoning ordinance. ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD ACTION Stormwater management was the focus of the Environmental Board discussion on July 25. This included the importance of the design of the stormwater facilities, such as infiltration and filtration features. In addition, the AUAR requirement for volume control must be addressed in the project design. There also was consideration of revising the landscape plan to substitute some tree species and ensure plantings in infiltration areas are appropriate. The project was reviewed again on November 28. The comments are attached. RECOMMENDATION Open public hearing, take comment, continue public hearing to January 9, 2008. This project is somewhat complex and requires a number of separate approvals. A number of issue remain to be resolved before staff can recommend approval of the project. The following should be addressed: 1. The complete data and analysis included in the peak parking analysis must be submitted to ensure that the peak demand is less than the normally required number of parking stalls. Square footages of retail area also must be submitted for the gas station.
