McDonalds Developmeni Review Pl�lning Case No. 500-97 i August 20, 1997 Page 3 that the McDonalds parcel is 48i feei from the cloxest ed�e of Rice Creek. Tlus letter, dated July 12, 1997, has been attached. The grading and drainaga pians have b�en subrnitied to Rocky Keehn, the City's Engineer, for review. In a memo dated Augusi 7, 1997, Mr. Keehn responded that the averall impervious surface oza the site will not increase with tt�is development. However, because of the relocation of the building, the drainage pattems may shift, causin� additional runoff in a particular area. The applicant has submitted revised drainage plans shovrring exis�ing and proposed drainage flows, which have not yet been reviewed by Ivlr. Keehn. �taf�will have a response r�garding the drainage prior to your meeting on August 20, 1997. Ivfr. Keehn recommends ihat no watet' quality treatmer�t methads be required for this development praposal due ta site constraints. I,andsc °i�n .�, �Iuch of the existing landscaping present around the perimeter of°the lo� witl be retained. The landscape plan includes a, plantin� scheduIe for the trees a.rzd shrtzbs to be added araund ihe building and in the island separatin� the two curb cuis. Two larg�r evergreens existing near th� frvnt of the Iot ar� proposed to be transplanted to the rear of the lot because of the shifted curb cuts. Rick Wriskey, the City Forester, has not yet reviewed the planting schedule, but will do so before yaur meetir�g on August 20, I997 at which time I will verbally present his approva! or any recommer�dations thai he has made. Li h i Parking lot lighting wi11 be accomplis�xed by four 24-foot tall standards, each with two 1000 watt metal halide lamps. The photometric analysis provided by the applicant indicates that the lighting meets the requirement as set forth in Section 1 iO3.09 of the Zoning Code, whereby light frorn the praperty shall not exceed one foat-candle as measured from the centerline of adjacent streets. The Code also states that no buibs may be vissble from adjoiruing properties and that they be hooded or shielcied to prevent glare. There was no indicatian on the photometric analysis of any wall-mounted lighting for the building. This wili need to be clarified by the applicant. i The existing pylon sign on the property will be retained in its present position. No other ground- mounted signage is proposed other than four small directional si�ns at the entries to the site. On the building front, iher� will be approxirrtately 40 square feei of signage which will display the name of the restaurant. On either building side, the company logo will be attached to the wall, Both signs are approximately 20 square feet in area. P rkin : Given estimaied square-foaiages for the kitchen and dinin� areas af the proposed building at 1,000 square feet and 1,600 squar� feet respectively, the app(icant would need to provide a minirnum of 53 parking spaces. This to�al is based on the following ratios: Kitchen area (1 space per 80 square feet): 19000 divided by 80 = 13 spaces Dining Area (1 spac� per 40 square %et): 1,600 divided by 40 = 40 spaces iotai spaces req�aired: 53 spaces
