Page 2—Culvers parking space for every 50 square feet of gross floor area, plus one for every three seats, plus one parking space for every employee on the largest shift. Based on this formula, the petitioner meets the criteria for one space for every three seats (160 seats/3), which is 53, plus one space for every employee on the largest shift, which the petitioner says is 12 employees; these two city requirements total 65 parking spaces. The petitioner plans for 70 parking spaces, per the plan. Because the City's Ordinance calls for one space per 50 square feet of gross floor area (5,815 square feet), the petitioner is short 111 parking spaces. The petitioner's variance request is for this parking requirement. See the variance application attached for petitioner's hardship rationale. 3) Combine Lot 1, Block 1, Apache Plaza with Lot 2, Block 1, Apache Plaza: The Culver's is planned for the site of the former Hardee's restaurant and the Exhaust Pro's building on Silver Lake Road. The petitioner wishes to combine Lot 1, Block 1, Apache Plaza with Lot 2, Block 1, Apache Plaza and own the restaurant at this location. 4) Rear yard setback variance request of 4.25 feet to meet the 20 feet setback requirement. In a Commercial district, the rear yard must have a depth of at least 20 feet. The petitioner is asking for a variance to meet this requirement. The petitioner states that the rear (or west) yard has 80 feet for 75% of the building and needs the 4.25 feet variance for their plans, which show 15.75 feet for 25% of the building. For consideration of this variance, the petitioner would like the weighted average or the combined setback as grounds to grant the variance. The west property line is adjacent to residential property. ADDITIONAL STAFF COMMENTS: 1) Parking spaces: Per City Ordinance, parking spaces must be at least 9 feet by 19 feet in a Commercial district; Culver's plans show these dimensions. In addition, please note parking spaces must be clearly marked and outlined, per city code. 2) Square footage of principal structure: The engineering and design drawings depict two different square footage totals. The petitioner has stated to city staff the correct and final square footage is 5,815. The petitioner will need to resubmit final plans to the City with the accurate numbers. 3) Site lighting: Site lighting consists of 400-watt metal halide lights on 25' poles. The petitioner's application states fixtures near the property lines are equipped with cutoffs to minimize light spill onto adjacent properties. 4) Garbage screening: Enclosed dumpsters noted on plans; they will be enclosed with 8" concrete block with brick veneer to match restaurant. It will not have a roof.
