Mermaid Entertainment Center <br />Manning Case 52398 <br />May 11, 1998 <br />Page 2 <br />Parking Lot Setbacks <br />Front (Highway 10): <br />Front (County H): <br />• Side (Perkins): <br />• Side (Business Park): <br />Drainage: <br />30 feet <br />30 feet <br />10 feet <br />10 feet <br />18 feet <br />75 feet <br />0 feet <br />0 feet <br />No <br />Yes <br />No <br />No <br />The impervious surface on this site takes up nearly 100 percent of the area. The proposed <br />addition adds 7,226 square feet of building area to the site, yet replaces an equal amount of <br />parking area. The net effect is that no additional run -off is expected as a result of this <br />development. Even so, the Rice Creek Watershed District will need to review this development <br />proposal and issue a watershed permit before construction can begin. <br />arkin <br />With the additional eight bowling lanes, the parking ratios and counts as required in the City <br />Code, Section 1121.13 for bowling alleys and the other on -sites uses would be as follows: <br />Bowling Alleys: <br />Dining and Lounge: <br />Kitchen area: <br />Office: <br />5 spaces per alley <br />1 space per 40 s.f. <br />1 space per 80 s.f. <br />3 spaces plus 1 per 175 s.f <br />32 lanes = 160 spaces <br />12,228 s.f = 306 spaces <br />516 s.f. = 7 spaces <br />930 s.f. = 9 spaces <br />Total required: 482 spaces <br />Staff counted the stalls present on the site and came up with a total of 515 spaces, 18 of which are <br />being used temporaril for the outdoor volt ball court. Thus at resent the site is ve arked <br />according to the Code requirements. With the ro osed anion there would be 505 s aces <br />the site, a net reduction of ten spaces. _ This fiaure is still more than what would be re aired with <br />thee i t additional lanes. The plan, however, shows the stalls at 9 foot by 18 foot dimensions, <br />instead of the Code - required 9 by 20 foot dimension. The shorter, 9 by 18 parking stalls have <br />been allowed only by the City for perimeter parking where an overhang of the car into greenspace <br />may occur. The Planning Commission and Staff concurred that the sub - standard stalls (9 by 18 <br />feet) would be acceptable so as to be consistent with those stall preexisting. The other issue with <br />regard to the parking as shown on the site plan is the reduced setback from the north and west <br />property lines. The parking areas are shown to be at the property line instead of set back by the <br />required 10 feet. The existing parking lot setback along the western property line is five feet. If <br />the parking were to be constructed according to the plans provided, as much as two feet of some <br />vehicles would be extending into the neighboring property. <br />Staff would recommend that the site plan be redrawn to (1) show 45 degree angled parking <br />around the proposed addition which would allow for the continuation of the five -foot parking lot <br />
