CVS Site Plan Amendment Report November 22, 2004 Page 2 On November 17, 2004, Staff received another request for a site plan amendment, this time to open the perimeter curbing to allow for traffic to be able to access the front of the Pak building. Staff felt this differed too much from the original plan approved by the Council and informed the applicant that they must seek Council approval. The proposed site plan is attached for Council review. The curbing in the proposed site plan goes south to the edge of the Pak building and then returns to County Road 10. Mr. Perrozi has been informed of the Council’s desire to stop thru traffic and has offered to place an obstruction made of concrete- filled pipes between the Pak building and ABC Liquor/Simon’s Sports Shop in order to prevent vehicles from driving through. This proposal was not formally presented to the Planning Commission, but it was discussed at the last meeting. The Planning Commission remains opposed to allowing the curb opening. Recommendation: Discuss the requested site plan amendment. The Council can take one of the following actions related to the request: 1. Deny the requested amendment. To do so, the Council would vote to approve Resolution 6400, a resolution denying the site plan amendment. Resolution 6400 is attached if the Council selects this option. 2. Approve the requested amendment. If the Council selects this option, it might be appropriate to consider placing a time frame for an upgrade to the Pak building parking lot. An upgrade would include perimeter curbing, which would prevent potential traffic from entering the Pak building and CVS Pharmacy sites from ABC Liquors and Simon’s Sports Shop. Staff will return at the next meeting with a resolution of approval if this is the option selected by the Council. 3. Table the request. If additional information is needed before a decision can be rendered or if more discussion is needed, the Council can simply move to table the request until such information has been provided. Staff feels that using concrete-filled pipes is a just temporary solution to preventing thru traffic. Concrete-filled pipes or any other type of temporary barrier would most likely not be aesthetically pleasing. As the City is working towards the County Road 10 Redevelopment project, it may be best to look towards a permanent improvement at the Pak building site.
