MEMO TO: Planning Commission and City Council FROM: City Planner Herman DATE: March 31, 1988 SUBJECT: SITE PLAN REVISIONS FOR MOUNDS VIEW BUSINESS PARK, BUILDING E Attached you will find a memo from Mr. Tim Nelson requesting the approval of site plan changes to Building E . As you can see, the building has grown with gross leasible increasing 8,538 square feet. Parking has been increased to accommodate the increase in space. This has produced a higher parking/1,000 square feet ratio than the previous submittal. An issue arises in regard to the rear yard setback. Previous plans had the rear yard setback over the 40 foot requirement. The new plans change that setback to 10 feet which will also require changing the original plat. Possible options open to the Council are as follows: 1. The site plan could be changed to shift some of the parking in back. Shifting the parking would require setbacks of at least 40 feet in front and rear. 2. A PUD zoning allows for relaxation of zoning require- ments. If the City Council chooses to allow this building with a 10 foot rear setback, the developer should be informed that the setback of the building to the north will be required to have a 40 foot setback to allow for a 50 foot interval between the two buildings. 3. The City could require a 40 foot setback on this site which would require the developer to shift the property line 40 feet rather than the 10 he proposes. The northern lot would be 300' x 620' instead of the proposed 330' x 620, still allowing for a buildable lot. The City Forester has reviewed the landscape nlan ana foeIa i. very suitable for the site. I will be asking the City Engineer to review the drainage plans before the City Council takes action at its April 11 meeting. KH/bac C
