May 25, 2022 Centerville City Council Page 16 of 18 RE: Banjo Distribution Center, PUD, Preliminary & Final Plat th County cooperate on a study of the 20 Avenue intersections with Fairview Street and Center Street to arrive at a safe crossing facility, which would connect to the future trail on Fairview Street in front of the proposed project. 5)The City has standards in the Zoning Code for landscaping and the provision of trees and shrubs on site. the proposed landscape plan does not meet this number requirement and it is therefore reasonable to have the applicant pay the difference so that the City can use these funds to provide similar improvements elsewhere. 6)The proposed truck loading docks on the west side of the proposed building are within th about 500 feet of single family homes on the west side of 20 Avenue, on Center Street, Eagle Trail, and Cottonwood Court. The van loading area also opens to the west toward this residential area. The project will have truck deliveries in the nighttime hours between 10 pm and 7 am, and the van loading area will have several hundred vans moving through the area with their noise and activity during daytime hours.

Follow-up to the noise mitigation will need to be done within a reasonable period of time to determine if the noise modeling was accurate. 7)The several hundred vehicles on site will add exhaust and fumes if they idle for long periods of time, adding to air pollution. Reducing idling time is therefore desirable and reasonable. 8)The 44-ft height of the building, above the City’s 35-ft limit, requiring a conditional use permit, is acceptable given the significant setbacks of the building from all exterior edges of the property, the screening achieved by landscaping around all sides of the site, and the general character and use of the property. 9)The outside storage of semi trailers in the truck loading area, requiring a conditional use permit, on the west side of the building is acceptable given that the number of trailers is limited and all goods and materials will be enclosed in the trailers. 10)The City has engineering standards for provision of utilities and construction standards which are reasonable for the health, safety and welfare of the people in Centerville. Preliminary & Final Plat We recommend approval of the preliminary and final plat for the Banjo facility property with the following conditions and findings: Conditions of Approval 1)As easement will be dedicated to the City over a portion of the southwest corner of the property, as illustrated in the Planner’s report of May 3, 2022, which would allow a realignment of Fairview Street in the future, should a future study conclude that it would be necessary. The applicant will work with the City Engineer and City Attorney on the legal
