PLAmmIG HBPORT DAn: 3 October 1984 CASE !fJJMBER: 1546-84 APPLICANT: Shorewood Corporation, Inc. LOCATIOl: Nortbwe~t Corner of Trunk Highway 36 and Rice Street AcrrOB REQUESTED: Approval of Pre liminary Plat Variance to Parking Setback PLAHRIBG COJa;.IDBRATI08S: 1. The Planning COIIIDisaior 1U!d Coun.cil, you will rec'",ll, have previously approved an amendment t, the Comprehensive Plan and the rezoning of the property in question to A-3A so as to allow for t'he construction of s 61 unit multi-faaily dwelling, and the construction of a small office b~ilding at the soutbesBt corner of tbe site. The applicants DOW propose to plat the proper~y into four _ ~t!J as s~own on the reduced copy of 'the prelisinary plat attached. 'I Lot 1, east of tne Country ititchea. site, is proposed fot' ultiutate etpaI18ion of ths sit.! which was approved at one time by the City but not constructed. We have some concerns with respect to this lot ind.sauch as it has ao frontage on a public street: and should be combi1U!d with the eJtisting lot $0 as to correct thi.s deficic&cy. Lot 4 is a uattow strip of land whi~ connects the property to Marion Street. It is the p~oposal of the d~v~lopers to sell this property to contiguoQs land OIlmen. tou will Ncall that the Fire ~'t'sball determined that this secondary access would not be neceseary for the developmenl of tbis property. 2. Tbe ~ariaDce relates to the lot line ~icb seFarates the office bnildi~ site f't01J1 the apartment site. This lot line. is indicated as au eaat-west line and should, in our opinio~, I'UQ down the center of tbe proposed driveway. ~bis driveway, you will notice has now been modified so 8S to have a single driveway going down the hill ratber than 8 separate one goi:2g to tbe garage under tbe }\uildin&. This new gradbs plan and arrangement for access and parking, we fep 1 "ill work well and cODstitutes a considerabl~ ~rovement over that pr~viou~iy reviewed with t~e Planning Commission and Council in their earlier application. J. Thp. engineer reports that additional dedication of lb.:- teet Go! rigbt-of-way appears ~ot to be clearly indicated on the plat. This should a~peaY ~s dedicacion by moving the lot li~e of Lot 3 westerly 16.$ feet. 4. The prelieinary plat appr~al should bc'conditioned on the dedication of the right-of-way, perhaps the movement of the lot line down the (:enter of the driveway, the filing of appropriate ea~('\O.en~s fot a joint acceS8 to the driveway dong the s;)utn sid~ of the Country Kitchen siu and the driv~ bet~een the apartment site and the ~coposed ct~'ce building.
