Regular City Council Meeting <br /> Monday,August 24,2015 <br /> Page 26 <br /> c. Request for Approval of a Preliminary Plat at 2668—2688 Lexington Avenue <br /> (southeast corner of Lexington Avenue and Woodhill Drive, excluding the <br /> County Cycles Property) <br /> City Planner Thomas Paschke provided a brief summary of this request as de- <br /> tailed in the RCA dated August 24, 2015. Mr. Paschke noted that the developer <br /> intended to take the existing three lots it owned and make them into two lots; with <br /> Lot 2 defined as the city-owned parcel at 2668 Lexington Avenue. Mr. Paschke <br /> noted the additional of conditions h and g by the Planning Commission to those <br /> recommended by staff <br /> At the request of Councilmember McGehee, Mr. Paschke reviewed the grading <br /> and drainage plan as displayed and proposed location of parking stalls and prima- <br /> ry drop-off on the site. <br /> Councilmember McGehee opined that it seemed drainage and tree preservation <br /> would be better-served if the building was located and oriented elsewhere on the <br /> site that appeared barren. Councilmember McGehee questioned if the watershed <br /> district had yet approved this preliminary plat. <br /> Mr. Paschke advised that both the City Engineer and Rice Creek Watershed Dis- <br /> trict had been in consultation with the developer, and advised the rationale in <br /> placing the structures on site was due to previous fill on the site that was not con- <br /> ducive to building construction, but adequate for a parking lot to avoid substantial <br /> cost in removing that fill. Mr. Paschke further noted that the City's zoning ordi- <br /> nance and design standards required placement of the building front and setback <br /> facing Lexington Avenue as the primary street. <br /> While offering to yield the final decision to Community Development Director <br /> Bilotta, Councilmember McGehee wondered why the developer would want the <br /> building facing the parking lot across the street when it could face another way <br /> with a much better view, questioning what precluded them from that option to <br /> face Woodhill rather than Lexington Avenue and facing directly into the fire sta- <br /> tion. <br /> Community Development Director Bilotta concurred that the building would face <br /> the fire station at that location; however, he noted a key determination was which <br /> was considered the main street. Mr. Bilotta advised that representatives of Unit- <br /> ed, the developer, felt that Lexington Avenue was their key entrance point for this <br /> assisted living facility based on visibility and access points critical to the devel- <br /> opment; even beyond the issue with previous fill on the lot being the largest driv- <br /> er. <br /> At the request of Councilmember Willmus related to Condition D and vacating <br /> the existing sewer easement, Mr. Bilotta confirmed that the easement did not have <br /> sewer lines currently within that area, and the intent was to relocate sewer lines <br />
