Page 9 of 14 PARKING Based on Developer’s review and interpretation of City Zoning Code, the R4 Multiple Family District requires the following minimum parking provisions: 1.1 per studio, 1.1 per 1-bedroom, 2 for 2-bedroom. The finalized unit mix and parking count for this project has not been determined. The following is the current approximate assumption. The Developer will update/finalize within the next submittal. Example, based on 120 Units % of Units # of Units City Req. Stalls Proposed 1 Bbd/ 1 Bbd + Den Proposed = 35-45% 42- 54 46.2 - 59.4 xx 2 Bbd/ 2 Bbd + Den Proposed = 55%-65% 66 - 78 132 - 156 xx 178.2 - 215.4 216 The Developer does not believe a deviation to City Zoning Code for minimum parking stalls will be required. VEHICLE ACCESS Based on informal input obtained from two neighborhood meetings RE this proposed project—the developer believes access should come from County Highway 96 exclusively—and no access to this proposed project shall be allowed internally, through the existing North Heights Lutheran Church campus (to Snelling Avenue). In an effort to accomplish said goal, the Developer has made the following adjustments to the proposed site plan: • The apartments parking lot, and the North Heights Lutheran Church parking lot, are now separated by a physical barrier (raised boulevard with landscaping). • Access to the apartments garage and apartments surface parking lot are located at furthest northern possible location—against County Highway 96. • Provisions of exiting restrictions have been added to both apartment exit points. The developer has added: a left turn only arrow to be painted on the pavement, at both apartment exit points; a no right turn sign has been added at both apartment exit points; concrete curbing will be bumped (as much as allowed by City Engineer) to help force left only exits—and help physically restrict right-out exits—at both apartment exit points. Internal to the site, care will be placed in the design of the parking lot to allow for the flow and circulation of both residents’ vehicles and larger vehicles; such as fire apparatus and delivery trucks; which allow delivery trucks to safely and efficiently enter the site. The developer has included a 24’ wide internal circulation dive lane for parking areas, and a 20’ wide fire department access road around the rear of the building—which includes a turn-around provision.
