MEMO TO: PLANNING COMMISSION FROM: CLERK-ADMINrSTRATO DATE: FEBRUARY 27, 1987 SUBJECT: AMOCO OIL COMPANY (WAGNER CORPORATION) PROPOSAL, 2800 TRUNK HIGHWAY 10, CASE NO. 196-86 Pursuant to your direction at the February 18th Agenda Session of the Planning Commission, Staff has reviewed specific items with respect to the proposal and wishes to report on our findings. 1) Storm Water Ponding - The ponding proposed by the developer. is adequate pursuant to the requirements of City Codes. Any provisions for special handling regarding spillage of gasoline, oil, etc. which might ultimately drain into the ponds is not specifically addressed in the Code and a determina- tion by the Planning Commission would need to be made to require a design which would allow for handling of these items. 2) City Forester Rick Wriskey reviewed the landscape plan proposed for the site and makes the following recommendations: ' a. Substitute "Marshall's" Ash for "Summit" Ash. The Marshall's seem to grow better in this area and have a more developed crown and will have fewer seeds, if any. b. Plant an additional Marshall's Ash on the south- east property line approximately 15 feet north of the plantings buffering Silver Lake Road from the site. c. Change the size of the trees to be planted from 5 to 6 foot balled and burlapped to 2 to 2 1/2 inch diameter balled and bur.lapped. The size of trees specified are too small for the location proposed and more than likely would not survive an extreme winter during the first few years of their growth. d. Change the rock mulch from 5/8 to 3/4 inch multi colored stone to a brown or grey trap of 3/4 to 1 inch. Rick feels that fewer problems related to loose stones will result from this modification. 3) Sand traps - Building Inspector Brian Hoffman has advised that sandtraps are required as part of the project and will need to meet building code provisions prior to the building permit being issued.
