~ planning. 37 parking spaces are provided on site meeting City code requirements. Concrete curb and gutter is proposed for the entire parking lot. Roseville standards say that a pylon sign must be setback 30 feet trom the property line. However, a monument sign can reduce this setback by 1/2 the distance. The applicant is proposing a 60 sq. ft. monument sign, 8 feet in height, located 15 feet trom the property line. The wall signage proposed is in the form of awnings that are to be back lit. They are within allowable square footage requirements of the code. 4. Engineering review indicates that sidewalks will be required along County Road D and Lexington Avenue. They also point out that the storm sewer system for the site cannot include sheet drainage off the site onto the County roads. As proposed, the drainage system includes catch basins in the parking lot directing surface water into the existing storm sewer system in Lexington Avenue. The County will also need additional right-of- way along Lexington Avenue. 5. The new site plan incorporates the required 5 foot setback for parking along the south property line. To the east is a multi-family residential project with detached garages. These garages screen the parking lot because they are right on the property line with no setbacks. The parking lot on the site currently extends to the property line, as well, with guard rails protecting the back of the garages. In order to provide for the width of the overhead doors and to allow for proper turning movements into the work bays, the applicant is proposing to keep the parking lot in the same area and is requesting a 5 foot setback variance for the parking along the east property line. The north side drive area is set back 5 feet, but by code should be 15 feet. 6. At the October 12, 1994 meeting, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the special use permit for Naftalia Alkali to construct an auto repair facility at 3114 North Lexington Avenue with a 5' east side parking lot setback variance and a 10' north side setback variance. The Commission added the conditions to the special use permit that included: sidewalks are to be installed on both the Lexington and the County Road D side of the property; and the complete dedication as per the applicant's survey of right-of-way to the County shall be completed before the building is occupied. Staff RecoJDmendations: 1. The light automotive repair use is acceptable in this location. The new facility will replace an existing eye sore and remove neighborhood concerns about the parking of abandoned vehicles on the site. With the exception of the parking setback along the east property line, the proposal meets the City's design standards. As a monument sign, the sign location now meets City setback requirements. Because this project will update and improve an existing vacant facility in the City ofRoseville, staff would recommend approval of the special use permit for Hght automotive repair.
