Outlot A was further divided with the plat for Eagle Point Business Park 4d' Addition (City and County Credit Union). The site of this application is the westerly 8.835 acres of Outlet A. The City had previously approved a PUD Plan encompassing the entire 120 acres of the Eagle Point Business Park, including this site. Exhibits to the PUD Plan documentation provide for allowable uses, lot specifications, master signage and related development standards. Where the PUD does not address a particular development standard, the Business Park and other related City Code standards are applicable. A proposed departure from those standards not already addressed by the PUD Plan should be processed as a. PUD Plan Amendment City water and sewer services are both available to the site. Discussion and Analysis: The applicant proposes to create two parcels from Eagle Point 2"d Outlet A with a replat, and receive approval of a Preliminary Plat and Section 520 Site Plan. Lot One The first parcel proposed is 3.773 acres in size. A site plan review was not performed as no construction is proposed for this lot at this time. The applicant anticipates an additional office building to be located on this site at some point in the future. Lot Two The second parcel proposed is 5.062 acres in size. The applicant is proposing to construct a 40,000 square foot office building on the site. The building will be a two story flat roof design, faced primarily with brick and glass. The accent materials will be architectural metal panels and are proposed to match the Phase 2 building. After subtracting the two proposed parcels, the remaining Outlet A will be 19.490 acres in size. Driveway/Street The private driveway will match in design the public streets in the business park The northbound access to Eagle Point boulevard will have both a right and left turn lane. There will be a center island within the driveway to promote traffic calming. Although this is not a public street, the City Engineer would recommend that some channalization and directional medians be added to better insure that drivers are not confused as they travel through the roundabout.
