The Dance Unit Site Plan Page 5 5 provide an updated colored elevation that reflects the colors shown on the material sample board, and has labels that are consistent with the intended design. Staff will continue to work with the applicant on revisions to the architectural plan, which is a condition of approval in the resolution. Signage The applicant is proposing signage through a monument sign located near the highway of Forest Boulevard, and a wall sign above the building entrance. The monument sign can have a maximum size of 40 square feet per face, and shall be a maximum height of ten feet measured at the grade of the ground. Wall signs can occupy a maximum of 10 percent of the wall area and one wall sign is allowed per side of the building. Prior to the installation of any sign, a sign permit shall be approved by the City. Drainage/Grading The applicant is proposing to grade the entire site. The applicant will need to apply for a grading permit prior to the commencement of work. Stormwater management for the site is proposed with the construction of an onsite pond. The applicant’s stormwater management plan meets the City’s rate control and volume control standards. The applicant will need to receive approval of a stormwater permit from the City. Utilities The site is able to be served by an existing 10-inch sanitary sewer that extends through the property. The site plan is oriented in a way that avoids needing to relocate this sewer. Water is accessible via an existing stub from the 6-inch watermain in the right-of-way in Forest Boulevard. Streets and Access The site currently receives access from a gravel access point onto Forest Boulevard, which will need to be removed. The site will instead receive access from the existing access point at the neighboring property to the north, which is currently occupied by TGK Automotive. There is a cross-access easement on the TGK property for the access to this property. The applicant will need to coordinate with TGK throughout the construction process, and provide evidence to the City that this communication is occurring. MnDOT reviewed the proposed site plan considering additional traffic that would be utilizing the access point, and is not requiring any additional improvements to Forest Boulevard. The property will also need to provide access to the property to the south. The site plan shows a future private drive to be constructed for that future access. A cross-access easement will need be dedicated for the future access to the property to the south.
