C. Fence Regulations - Section 1325.05, Subdivision 4 The Zoning Code restricts the height of fences to no more than six feet. For proposed fences on non-residential properties greater than six feet in height, deviation from this requirement may be permitted after a Site Plan review by the Planning Commission and approval by the City Council. The fencing along the perimeter of the outdoor sales area would measure six feet along the north and east side and eight feet along the south side. The need for additional height for the fence on the south side of the outdoor sales area is not clear based on the application and staff is recommending that this segment of the fence be no more than six feet in height. D. Parking – Section 1325.06, Subdivision 1 It is difficult to determine the exact number of required parking spaces for the development based on the Zoning Code regulations. The Master PUD assumes that a retail tenant would occupy the 20,136 square foot Building #4 on Lot 5 and that a restaurant use would be located in the 6,000 square foot Building #2 on Lot 2. For retail uses, one parking stall is required for every 150 square feet of gross retail sales floor area and for restaurant uses one stall is required for every two seats. However, the tenants for these buildings have yet to be determined. Different tenants may require different floor layouts that would impact the amount of gross retail floor area or the number of seats, thus impacting the number of required stalls. For the purpose of this evaluation, staff relied on the same calculation used in Planning Case 09- 011, which assumed that all space in the development would have the same percentage of gross retail sales space as the Walgreens at 80 percent. Based on these assumptions the number of parking stalls required for all the buildings would be 497 spaces. This calculation does not take into account the shared parking agreements that will allow users to park anywhere on the site and walk to their desired location.
