* 20 employees anticipated ** Employee count per project program summary (Leonard Parker Associates Architects, December 1997) With an off - street parking supply of 160 spaces, off - street parking supply requirements have been satisfactorily met. As a condition of site and building plan approval, the submitted site plan should be revised to illustrate required handicap stalls. Site Circulation. The proposed site circulation system (an arrangement of uses) is well conceived and should function efficiently. The more "public" uses (having greater public interaction) are located near Town Center Drive (Le., City Hall), while the less public use (police station) lies further from the higher intensity City Hall and community space uses. Trash. It is assumed that trash handling activities are to occur to the east of the police station. As a condition of site and building plan approval, however, the site plan should be modified to identify such trash handling area. Per Ordinance requirements, all trash handling equipment must be fully enclosed. Loading. It is likewise assumed that loading and receiving activities are to occur to the east of the police station. Again, this activity location should be identified upon the site plan. Lighting. As a condition of site and building plan approval, the site plan should be modified to identify specific exterior lighting locations. All lighting used to illuminate off - street parking areas should be arranged to reflect light away from adjoining properties. In compliance with the Town Center design guidelines, light fixture selections should given attention to both function and aesthetics. Wetlands. As shown on the submitted site plan, two wetlands lie north of the City Hall wing of the civic complex. If not already conducted, specific wetland boundaries must be protected and delineated by a person qualified to do such work. As part of the forthcoming subdivision, consideration should be given to establishing drainage easements over such wetlands. Grading and Drainage. As a condition of site and building plan approval, a grading and drainage plan should be prepared and submitted. Such plan should be subject to review and approval by the City Engineer and Rice Creek Watershed District. Signage. Neither the site plan or building elevations specify site signage locations. All site signage must comply with applicable provisions of the City's Sign Ordinance. 5
