All required setbacks for the addition are met. 3 4 Associate Planner Gretz explained that while the applicant has submitted no full -view elevation plans, 5 construction drawings of the proposed addition show a building constructed of rock -faced block, 6 similar to the existing building in terms of material and height. There are no additional parking stalls 7 proposed, as plans for the original building constructed in 1994 provided adequate parking both for 8 the original building and a planned 6,000 square foot expansion. 9 10 Associate Planner Gretz noted this second addition, then, fulfills the 6,000 square foot expansion area 11 envisioned in the original plans for the UDOR building. One of the conditions of approval for those 12 original plans was that landscaping be done between the building and 35W, once all additions had 13 been completed. As a result, such landscaping can now be done, and staff has made this one of the 14 conditions of approval for this Site Plan Review. 15 16 In terms of grading and drainage issues, Associate Planner Gretz pointed out that City Engineer 17 Studenski has reported that the submitted plans meet City requirements.
