• • AGENDA ITEM 6C STAFF ORIGINATOR: Marty Asleson DATE: April 27, 2005 TOPIC: Northern Lights Car Wash BACKGROUND: This lot is Zoned General Business. The lot is in MUSA and will be serviced with sewer and water. The Lot is 32, 781 Sq Feet. The lot is located on the SE corner of Lake Drive and Main Street. Owner is proposing to build a building to provide for a car wash/ pet wash use. Analysis: Unique Resources There are no known rare or unique plant or animal resources on or near this site. There are no wetlands on the site. Site Vegetation The MLCCS is attached as Attachment 9. The oak area delineated in this area does not include the car wash site. Previous disturbance of this are has resulted in a Boxelder, Elm type of wooded area. There is a nice white spruce in the woodland. Regardless of the composition, the vegetation does lend itself to screening the business to the south and a residence to the East. Storm Water Since this site is less than an acre a RCWD permit, and a SWPPP is not required. The City is requiring that the developer maintain preexisting conditions for runoff and Storm water treatment. A recommendation from the Environmental Board should require this. Attachment 6 Grading Plan shows a pond to capture additional impervious runoff. This pond size will be verified for size need by TKDA. That information is not available at this time. The developer may also add pervious pavement to his design. If you recall, the car wash that came in 2 years ago had designed pervious parking and pavement at the exit of the car wash. This pavement at the exit would capture any soap residue running out of the building. Recommend this at the exit with or with out the pond.
