July 13, 2021 Centerville Planning & Zoning Commission Page 2 of 6 PRELIMINARY PLAT virtually identical to the original parcel. What the plat accomplishes is dedicating the necessary street right-of-way to the centerline of abutting st and 40 ft to 21 complicated legal description with a simple plat name: Sutton Transport. Park dedication is not required for new lots that are more than 5 acres in size, as is this parcel. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT & SITE PLAN REVIEW The issues addressed in the CUP will also Site Plan review issues. Parking There are three parts to the Sutton building: office, service bays, and warehouse. The code has required parking numbers for office and warehouse uses, but not for service or a truck terminal. Parking should be adequate. The site plan has a 93-car parking lot in front and parking opposite the warehouse for 30 cabs and 30 trailers on either side. Cab/trailer parking is not usually part of parking standards. The office, 5,000 sq ft, requires 5/1,000 sq ft, or 25 spaces, leaving 68 parking spaces for the warehouse and service bays, plus the 60 spaces reserved for cabs and trailers. A warehouse use per Centerville standards requires 2/1,000 sq ft. The 40,000 sq ft warehouse would require 80 spaces. Calculating the 10,000 sq ft of service bays like the warehouse, it adds another 20 spaces, or 125 spaces required. Comparing the parking required and provided for these uses is like apples to oranges, but nevertheless here is the summary of parking on site: Required Parking Office: 5/1000 x 5,000 sq ft = 25 spaces Warehouse: 2/1000 x 40,000 sq ft = 80 spaces Service Bays: 2/1000 x 10,000 sq ft = 20 spaces Total Required = 125 spaces Provided Parking Parking Lot: = 93 spaces Cab Parking = 30 spaces Trailer Parking = 30 spaces Total Provided = 153 spaces The site plan envisions a future expansion of 16,560 sq ft of warehouse, which would require another 34 parking spaces; 32 more spaces are shown as future cab and trailer parking. In situations like this I rely on the experience of the business involved to know their parking needs, which can be stipulated with conditions in the conditional Use permit.
