D. president, is purchasing and re-Iocating to this building. The AAAOM <br />was incorporated in 1997, in it's final stages of national accreditation approval (please see <br />brochure). We are seeking a zoning change from the current 1-1 to a suitable business <br />designation. Dennis Walsh recommended B-3. <br /> <br />This is in keeping with the Comprehensive Plan, as that whole area is scheduled to be zoned <br />"Business", rather than it's current "Industrial". The actual change in use will be very minor, as <br />this property is currently being used as a business office and will continue to be used primarily <br />for that purpose. The total range of use for the building will include administrative offices, <br />clinic, and classroom use. We are not changing the structure of the building, the parking lot, or <br />the site. The only exterior modifications will be in the form of minor landscaping, as necessary <br />to insure drainage away from the building to compensate for settling. <br /> <br />It is my understanding that one of the primary concerns with the re-zoning is that of parking. <br />The building currently has approximately 46 parking spaces and a shared parking agreement to <br />use the lot North of 1935 West County Road B2. There is approximately 16,000sf of office <br />space in the building and a basement storage area of approximately 2,000sf. <br /> <br />From the guidelines provided, such a building would require 81 parking spaces (5/l000sf+ 1 for <br />the storage space). This is far in excess of our projected needs. <br /> <br />Another way to calculate is: <br />Upper floor all office (8,000sf) 40 <br />Srornge 1 <br />5 classrooms 5 <br />50 students total 8 <br />Clinic 15 treatment rooms (Hosp. 1.2/bed?) 18 <br />The remainder of first floor space is administrative 15 <br />Total 87 <br /> <br />~~c <br />~r'~v~. <br />. '<'c?~ '() <br /> <br />We again think this is disproportionate, as all the students would not be there at the same time. <br />In any case the shared parking agreement should cover are needs quite adeqU~tel~. le7;lc <br />with any questions or requests, I can be reached at 952-939-9749 <br />.
