2.3 The site was reviewed again in 1994 as part of the Comprehensive Plan revisions. A Business use designation was retained for the entire business park area. Comments included: The Centre Pointe area ...has taken longer than normal to develop and has numerous vacant garden office/warehouse and office parcels which could also be used for office/industrial uses. Staff recommends retaining office, garden office/warehouse, and office/industrial use in lieu of other commercial/retail uses on the site, which would create additional heavy traffic demands on Cleveland. (Source:Landuse-3) The southern portion of Centre Pointe planned units development...could be developed as light industrial office/service areas consistent with the uses east of Cleveland...The planned unit development for Centre Pointe should be evaluated to determine whether an amendment is necessary. It is clear, however, that no retail activity was anticipated in the Centre Pointe area. (Source: Landuse-18) 2.4 In 1997, the zoning remains "B-4" with a Planned Unit Development by Special Use Permit. 3.0 RYAN PROPOSAL 3.1 On the vacant parcels Ryan Companies is proposing to construct 619,000 s, 1. of additional buildings, This will add an additional 80,000 s.t. of space in comparison to the original Woodbridge proposal. Building heights will range from one to three stories, Exterior building materials will include brick, and glass with stucco and decorative cast stone concrete accents, similar to or matching the materials in the first two buildings, Proposed uses on the site include 2 business oriented hotels, 2 sit down restaurants, office, office/manufacturing, and office/showroom. See Exhibt E. 3.2 - Ryan Companies proposes no major changes to the existing infrastructure on the site. Existing streets, street trees, and street lights will be maintained. Some modifications to deepen or expand the existing stormwater ponds will be done to comply with Rice Creek Watershed District requirements. Portions of the existing pathways will be repaired and/or rerouted to accommodate the proposed development. The 8 foot pathway will have a dedicated public easement to allow the public to use the path. 3,3 There is a master landscape plan for the entire site. Ryan has updated this plan and it does meet city design guidelines. Heavy landscaping and screening will be extended along the entire Cleveland Avenue edge of the site to soften the visual impact as seen from the residential neighborhood to the east. Each individual lot will be landscaped to enhance the architecture of the buildings. Down cast site lighting will be provided on each site which will not disturb the residential neighborhood, highway or businesses adjacent to the site. HVAC will be screened on the roof. Where possible, trash will be held within the buildings, otherwise trash will be placed in roofed enclosures. See Exhibits D, E, F. 2
