MEMORANDUM PMAJ DATE: April 13, 1990 TO: Craig A. Waldron FROM: Mick Jopke SUBJECT: Proposed Can -American Commercial Project at Woodhill and Lexington Avenue As you are aware, permits have been issued for the proposed commercial building at Woodhill and Lexington. Staff has reviewed the proposed plans with Howard Dahlgren and it has been determined that the development is substantially in compliance with the approved plans. The differences between the approved plan and the current plan include the following: 1. The building will be built in two phases instead of one. The total square footage would remain at 20,000 sq. feet. 14,824 sq. feet would be built in the first phase. 2. While the building design is not quite the same, it is very' similar including the use of a pitched roof, cupolas and dormer features. The building materials are the same including the use of brick, glass, and stucco. 3. The current talan shows a canopy over the pump islands at the service station/convenience store on the south end of the center. The original approved plan did not anticipate a canopy over the pump islands. The proposed canopy as shown would require a setback variance because it is not 30 feet from Woodhill. Drive. The developer has been informed of this and they have agreed to request a variance. 4. The applicant proposes to phase the parking on the site. 88 parking stalls will be constructed for the first phase of the development. 75 parking stalls are required for the amount of square footage in the first phase. The remaining parking as anticipated in the approved plan would be constructed as part of the second phase when the building is expanded. The areas where the additional building =,nd' parking expansion will occur in phase II would be grass ` until such time as the phase II expansion occurs. 5. The landscaping shown on the current plan is less than on the approved plan around the perimeter of the commercial site. The developer has agreed to expand the landscaping to add boulevard trees along Lexington Avenue, Woodhill, and trees along the west side of the site, adjacent to the VFW. They will be preparing a revised landscape plan to show this additional landscaping and the landscaping will be installed during the first year of the project's operation.
