10. Based on our experience since opening Solar Car Wash we have found that parking across the north side of the parking lot (as originally planned) makes turning into our wash bays very difficult. By adding the proposed parking area it will n be much safer and more convenient for customers to drive into the bays and eliminate the need for them to back up in order to align themselves properly to enter bays 4, 5, & 6. The additional parking will eliminate the potential danger of people backing into other entering cars or hitting tenants coming from between parked cars.' We now have the required 27 parking spaces for the existing 5450 square feetAi of office space. However, by adding the additional parking area this number will be raised to 30. Parking spaces will then be more removed from the traffic pattern which will provide increased safety to people getting into and out of their cars. At the present time 'ir. Coverdale's lot contains 72,680 square feet. His apartment building requires a lot area of 48,000 square feet. A,lportion of this lot is now vacant and covered with weeds and tall grass. We propose to acquire 13,139 square feet (which will leave 59,541 square feet for the apartment building which is ;,ell in excess of ,the square footage required.) We intend to beautify the area by keeping the parking area small (4,449 square feet) and landscaping the remaining area with trees, grass, shrubs and stone. It will take land that is not being used by Mr. Coverdale because of its size, contour and lack of accessibility and allow us to: provide a safer, more convenient service to our customers as well as substantially improving the beauty and aesthetics of the existing area. 12. B. Most of the existing lot will remain an R-6 zoning and the legal description t would be: Lot 3, Bl 1, Worthdale Add. #2 EXCEPT: the southerly 68.00 feet of Lo 3, Bl 1, Worthdale Addition No. 2 according to the recorded plat thereof, Ramsey County, Minnesota, Except the Westerly 25.00 feet thereof. The proposed lot split would become a B-1 zoning and have the following legal description: The southerly 68.00 feet of Lot 3, B1. 1, Worthdale Addition No. 2 according to the recorded plat thereof, Ramsey County, Minnesota, Except the Westerly 25.00 feet thereof. a 16.
