Planning Commission Mij,....es-November 7, 1984 Fage 2 Discussion Berry asked where the new regional center parking data carne from. Dreher indicated that industry groups such as the Urban Land Institute have done nationwide studies. Dreher also indicated that the mix of uses at the center, which include health clubs, retail and theatre uses include several different peak usage times. Dressler suggested that the largest parking problem will involve the theatres. Paul Pink, architect for the developer, indicated that studies have shown that centers with theatres require less parking because the retail uses and theatre use have different peak usage times. Wiski asked why the original proposal included 'more parking than is required. Mr. Pink indicated the ramp allowed the additional parking. Berry asked how many spaces are available in the bank lot. Dreher indicated that there are 41 spaces in the bank lot. Johnson asked what would happen if the agreement with the bank does not work out. Dreher indicated the agreement is simply recognizing that people are going to park in the bank lot whether there is an agreement or not. Matson asked whether a decision has been made to construct a fence along the northerly boundary. Dreher indicated he feels the fence is needed since the parking ramp, which formerly served as a barrier, is no longer included in the project. A majority of the neighbors agree a fence is needed. Matson asked whether an agreement has been reached concerning landscaping over the pipeline to the north. Dreher indicated Williams Pipeline has agreed on the basic plan, and the legal documents are being prepared. Matson indicated the Commission had received a letter from the Audio King shopping center regarding the possible detrimental use of their lot as an exit to County Road B2 from the proposed public roadway serving the shopping center. Mr. Drown indicated the City staff has been working with all property owners regarding the best route for the public street. He indicated the potential is there for the Audio King lot to become an exit to B2. He indicated staff have the same concerns regarding that possibility. Since the roadway is a public street, the City has control over how it is designed. Mr. Drown indicated it is too soon to say exactly what the solution will be. Dreher indicated the developer and neighbors had agreed on a six-foot high vinyl coated chain link fence as a barrier on the northern boundary. Wiski asked the applicant whether the conditions included in the original approval, which included an easement for a walkway, thirty feet of right-of-way dedication, drainage detail and cross easements, were still agreeable to the developer. Dreher indicated they were. Johnson indicated she opposed the variance because she feels there is insufficient parking available. Recommendation Matson moved, and DeBenedet seconded that the Planning Commission recommend the approval of American Redevelopers, Inc. request for variance to parking requirements at 1665 County Road B, with the following conditions: 1) That the project be developed according to plans reviewed by the Planning, Commission to be dated November 7, 1984. 2) That the landscape plan be subject to approval by City staff. 3) That the parking plan be subject to approval by City staff. 4) Dedication of an easement for a walkway on the applicant's land. 5) Dedication of 30 feet of right-of-way for American Street. 6) TIlat final drainage plans be provided for staff approval. 7) That cross easements be provided for a common access drive to be shared with the proposed development to the west.
