COUNCIL MINUTES JUNE 23, 1997 construction of Industrial Boulevard in this location was not necessary. It was noted that Boe Ornamental is currently located immediately east of this proposed construction. The new building is intended for lease with the thought that it may ultimately house Boe's office space. The proposed construction fits with the City's Economic Development Plan calling for incubator space to promote new industrial growth in the community and is supported by EDAAB. The Planning and Zoning Board recommends approval with the following conditions: 1. Proper building permits be obtained prior to any construction on the site. The building permit shall include a deposit of 1% of construction costs to insure completion of all site improvements. 2. The City Engineer shall review and approve the grading, utility and drainage plans. 3. Roof top heating and ventilating units shall be screened and/or blended with the design and coloring of the building. 4. The parking area shall be modified as recommended in the staff report to provide better maneuvering room and supplied with adequate handicapped spaces as provided by the ADA Rules and Regulations. This would include increasing the entrance drive to 26' and eliminating 2 to 4 parking spaces near the front entrance drive. 5. Permits shall be obtained from the RCWD for grading, if required. 6. Signage shall comply with the City Sign Ordinance and proper permits obtained. 7. Concrete curb, gutter and bituminous paving shall be provided for all access driveways and parking areas. 8. The City Forester and CPTED Officer shall review and approve the landscape plan. 9. A lighting plan shall be reviewed and approved by the CPTED Officer. 10. The legal description for this site and the adjoining property shall be clarified due to the addition of the vacated Industrial Blvd. right-of-way and a shared driveway agreement signed by the property owner(s). Mr. Wessel reviewed the project and noted it will be available for lease by new businesses and eventually used by Boe Ornamental as their business grows. He also advised this project is being constructed without the benefit of Tax Increment Financing (TIF) since Boe Ornamental is an existing business. He stated staff is supportive of this project and he recommends approval. Council Member Bergeson asked if this project is feasible without sewer and water. Ms. Wyland advised it is not and Boe Ornamental does not want to proceed without the availability of sewer and water. Council Member Bergeson noted the proposed action does not include mention of sewer and water availability. Mr. Wessel stated if those utilities are not available, the project will not proceed. G
