. . . Planning Commission Resolution No. 496-97 March 5, 1997 Page 2 (1) A variance in parking ratios to allow a reduction to 43 spaces was granted by the Planning Commission in Resolution No. 499-97. Approval of this development review is contingent upon approval of this variance. WHEREAS, the Planning Commission does hereby find that the landscape plan as proposed satisfies the requirements of the Code as stated below: The landscaping proposed for this site has been reviewed by the City Forester, who has recommended changing one of the tree types (Honey/oeust Sunburst) for a more climate- appropriate species (Honey/oeust Shademaster). The other landscaping is acceptable. Much of the existing tree cover will be retained to provide a full screen from both County Road J and Coral Sea Street. Most of the rear elevation will also be screened from any future park developments on adjacent land. WHEREAS, the City Engineer has reviewed the drainage plan for this site and has found it acceptable and consistent with the Master Drainage Plan previously approved by the City Council and Rice Creek Watershed District. WHEREAS, the City Fire Marshal has reviewed the site plans and finds the layout meets Fire Department requirements for emergency vehicle access; and, WHEREAS, the approximately 40 square feet of signage indicated on the site plans is within the 100 square feet allowed by the Municipal Code.
