north exterior wall will be modified to accommodate the pass-through window in the area occupied by Dunn Bros. and signage will be used to identify the new coffee shop. 6.0 STAFF COMMENTS/FIND�NGS: 6.1 Section 1005.015 of the City Code of identifies Class I] restaurants as Fast Food Convenience and any that desire a drive-thru window are required to receive a conditional use permit. 6.2 Chapter � 0� 0 outlines design standards regulations for commercial and industrial development within the community. These standards are applied to new construction as well as enlargements or alterations of existing buildings and/or uses. 63 Section 1013.01 outlines the process and standards for issuance of a conditional use permit. 6.4 In reviewing this request, staff has made the following findings: a. Impact on Traffic: Vehicle counts for this portion of Fairview Avenue are currently 17 to 20,000. Staff has reviewed the proposed change in use — specifically the drive-through window — and has concluded that the minimal additional traffic generated will have a little impact on traffic in the area. Specifically, staff concludes that the maj ority of traffic generated from the drive- through will be existing vehicles already using �airview Avenue and only a limited number of new vehicles will be added. b. Impacts on Parks, Streets, and other Public Facilities: The proposed renovation of the property as proposed will not have an impact on parks, streets and other public facilities. c.

At that time the issue of joint access andloz use was discussed and left to the final plan design and possible easement requirement. The current proposal to create a drive-through lane adj acent the northern parcel's two- way access to the rear of the stz�uct�re/trash enclosure, does come with its challenges. However, there are design features, such as bollards, curbing, signage, striping, that can be installed to minimize a vehicle circulation impact. In addition to a circulation plan, the proposed plans should also include additional landscaping consistent with Section 1010 of the Roseville City Code specifically for the improved parking lot area and storm water ponding. The reuse of the property as proposed will be compatible with contiguous properties. The site will PF3672_RCA_092605 - Page 4 of 7 —
