6.2 Section 1007.01F2 reads: "Number of Off-Street Parking Spaces: There shall be two parking spaces for every three employees necessary to operate a full shift at design capacity of one space for each 1,000 square feet of floor area, whichever is greater." The City Planner has determined that this site plan proposal exceeds the city requirements. The City Planner has applied the Code requirements and determined the following: a. 25 employees @ 2 per every 3 employees = 17; b. 17,950 @ 1 space for each 1,000 sq. ft. = 18 spaces or a total of35 on-site spaces. c. Office use ratio to the net square footage of 14 spaces (2,800 sq. ft. @ 5/1000) d. Industrial ratio to the preparation/repair area of 15 spaces (15,150 sq. ft. @ 1/1 000) for a total of 29 on-site spaces. e. Because of the non-typical industrial/manufacturing use of the Abra site, another approach would be to use the second scenario along with the employee ratio in the first scenario, which would create a requirement for 46 on-site spaces. f. The current Abra site plan indicates 102 parking spaces to be installed and 6 future spaces. Although well in excess of the Code requirement, there will be times of peak parking demand (need) created mostly by bad weather and poor road conditions. However, due to the large number of spaces overnight parking (storage) of vehicles outside the secured fenced-in area will be prohibited. 6.3 The Staff has determined that the 12 on-site parking spaces indicated for the Casci site is adequate. However, in the event that the property/structure is sold and the office/employee size increases beyond the current 5 anticipated, that use would require additional on-site parking spaces (up to 25 additional spaces). A cross parking easement and proof-of-parking agreement will be established to afford the Casci parcel the required amount of on site parking. 7.0 STAFF COMMENTS/CONDITIONS: 7.1 The storm sewer catch basin indicated within the fenced storage area at the rear of the Abra structure must contain a flammable liquid/petroleum trap to catch and/or slowdown potential contamination to down stream storm water management ponds, and later, Langton Lake. 7.2 Because the Casci parcel does not have direct access to a public street the City will require that a shared access easement be created affording perpetual vehicular access within the proposed drive lane to the rear parcel. Sharing of parking, access, and any future assessment cost must be accomplished by legal document binding both lots and made part of the Planned Unit Development Agreement. 7.3 The limited site lighting plan conforms to the Code, but the plan must be expanded to include the Casci site and any anticipated secured storage area or building wall mounted lighting.
