(1,341,325 sf) 31.39% (647,833 sf) 35.64% (735,497 sf) 42.75% (882,142 sf) *Total impervious coverage includes the building coverage. **No new structures are being constructed with Phase 1 of the project. The Master PUD and Phase 2 of the project suggests a new 4 story office structure with a footprint of 50,444 square feet. ***The lot is 47.37 acres or 2,063,577.7 square feet. D. Floor Area Ratio (FAR) – Meets Requirements The FAR is the sum of the gross horizontal area of all floors of a building as measured in square feet from the exterior sides of the exterior walls, but not including covered porches; decks; any space where the average floor-to-ceiling height is less than six feet; attached or detached garages; and other detached accessory structures. FAR is calculated by dividing the sum of all gross horizontal floor areas by the square footage of the lot. Within the I-1 – Limited Industrial District a total FAR of up to 60% is permitted for structures in this district. Although Phase 1 of the project does not include any new structures, the Master PUD and Phase 2 of the project suggest a new four (4) story office structure with an additional 155,000 square feet. When the future Phase 2 of the project is completed and combined with the existing square footage on the property, a total FAR of 20.3% is proposed with approximately 418,800 square feet of floor area. Permitted Existing Proposed Phase 1 Future Phase 2 Total FAR 60% 12.78% --* 7.51% 20.3% Square feet 263,800 --* 155,000 418,800 *No new structures are being constructed with Phase 1 of the project. The Master PUD and Phase 2 of the project suggests a new 4 story office structure that would add approximately 155,000 square feet of floor area. **The lot is 47.37 acres or 2,063,577.7 square feet. E. Building Height – Meets Requirements During Phase 1 of the project no additional structures will be constructed on the site. However, as proposed by the Master PUD and future Phase 2 of the project a new four (4) story office building will be constructed on the property and positioned just north of the two (2) existing structures on the site. The maximum building height within the I-1 – Limited Industrial District Zoning District is 35 feet. Flexibility in building height will be required for Phase 2 of the project as a building height of approximately fifty-six (56) feet is being suggested at this time. The original PUD that was approved in 1979 in Planning Case 79-004 permitted the east building to be constructed at a height of fifty-six (56) feet.
