Loading. The proposed site design does not allow sufficient consideration for the provision of loading areas for several of the individual structures, such as the drug store, restaurant use in the southwest comer of the site, two 12,000 square foot retail structures south of the Apollo Drive extension, 6,000 square foot structure north of Apollo Drive and 7,000 square foot structure south of Apollo Drive. The recommended design changes above must take into consideration the need to provide at least one loading area for each structure. In addition, depending on the resolution regarding the non - buildable strip adjacent to 77th Street /Apollo Drive, the access to the loading area north of the 72,000 square foot structure should be designed to be right -in only. This would reduce the amount of conflict between consumer traffic on Apollo Drive as well as with a potential access to Apollo Drive from a buildable lot to the north of the access. Delivery trucks would then need to travel out via an access drive extending from between the grocery store and drug store to an intersection with Apollo Drive closer to the Lake Drive /Apollo Drive intersection. Landscaping. The conceptual site plan illustrates the general location of proposed planting materials. However, the information is insufficient for evaluation as planting types, sizes of quantities have not been provided. This information will be required as part of a PDO development plan application. At least on an initial basis however, it must be noted that significant landscaping will be necessary at the extreme northwest corner of this phase of development as well as immediately to the northeast of the proposed 72,000 square foot structure. This landscaping is necessary to insure that the loading areas on the north side of this structure are not visible from Lake Drive or the Apollo Drive extension. This landscaping should include a combination of planting material, berming and /or fencing as appropriate. Building Design. No plans have been provided regarding building designs within the development. In that PDO flexibility is considered only for what results in a superior development, all building designs shall be subject to review by the Town Center Architectural Review Committee and approval of the City Council. Of note, no structure may exceed 45 feet in height within the SC District. Lighting. The location, type and design of all proposed site lighting will be required to be submitted as part of a PDO Development Plan application or a photometric light plan. Said photometric lighting plan shall be subject to review and approval of the City Engineer and CPTED Officer. Grading, Drainage and Utility Plan. All plans and issues related to site grading, drainage or utilities shall be subject to review and approval of the City Engineer. 6
