No change authorized by this section may increase the cube of any building or structure, the number of required access points, or parking spaces by more than 10%. The Planning Division has reviewed the recent submittal and concluded the following: � Both the approved PUD and the City Code offer more than one option when consideringwhat type of improvement is being sought. The City Planner has determined that } � l'+�1�.�] �73 �(Control of PUD Following Completion — Changes after Issuance of Certificate of Occupancy) is the most appzap�aie/app�cai�le to the situation at AMC Theater. � The City Planner has determined that the threshold of ; T f�l��. ff �TS L has not been met or exceeded. The massing of the addition — its length and height is exactly the same as the existing structure. The difference is an outward curve versus the existing inward curve. Specifically, the proposed ticket counter extension, alteration and/or modification does not increase the cube of The Plaza by more than 10%. The City Planner has estimated the theater addition to be 109,940 cubic feet while The Plaza is estimated at 8,210,134 cubic feet, which creates an addition of .013%. � The proposed extension, alteration, and/or modificationhas a footprint of 2,390 sq. ft. or .�7 i 3".•� of the approved overall Plaza development under the PUD (182,000 sq. ft.). r The approved PUD provided flexibilityin design and did not specifically suppo�t/ap�ro�e a design or elevation. The Development Review Committee previously approved a similar request for Granite City and its "minor" exterior change from the approved language and general elevation rendering. � �
