PUBLIC HEARINGS:
REZONING REQUEST, ZOA #79-05, BY R. C. WITT CONSTRUCTION:
MOTION by Councilman Fitzpatrick to waive reading of the public hearing
and open the hearing. Seconded by Councilman Schneider. Upon a voice
vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously
and the public hearing opened at 7:35 P.M.
Mr. Sobiech stated that this was a request for rezoning at 6330 and 6370
Central Avenue, Lots 2 and 3, Block�l of Herwal Rice Creek Terrace. The
request is to rezone from the existing M-1 to CR-1 which is general office
and limited business to allow construction of an office building. The Planning
Commission had a publ.ic hearing on July il, 1979, and recormended to Council
approval of the rezoning request with a couple stipul.ations. The first
stipulation is that the drainage plan be approved, secondly that adequate
screening be provided between this property and adjoining residential to the
west and that a landscaping plan be submitted for approval. The drainage
plan would have to be approved by the Rice Creek Watershed. There are
representatives from the request here to answer questions.
Gouncilman Schneider stated that the question of whether the property had
been rezoned before had come up at the Planning Corronission public hearing.
He asked if it had previously been rezoned.
Mr. Sobiech stated that this was from the original zoning back in 1956.
Mayor Nee asked what the chances were that the drainage problem could
be resolved? Mr. Sobiech stated that it was pretty good because there is an
existing drainage swale which he felt sure Rice Creek Watershed District would
want to maintain, and then incorporate with some additional ponding on the site
to ensure that litter and debris don't get into Moore Lake, and also to
ensure that the runoff rate is not increased with development. Tl�is would
protect not only the Moore Lake area but also the residence to•the west. One
of the basic rules that the Rice Creek Watershed is following is to ensure
that the runoff rate with development does not increase over what is existing
prior to development. •
Mayor Nee stated that then it was a matter of catching it before it reached
the duplexes. He asked if Mr. Sobiech was convinced that could be done and if
the ditch was presently working?
Mr. Sobiech stated that the ditch was working to the extent that it handled
a certain degree of storm. In the proposed plan, there are certain areas that
are already available for ponding together with the ditch itself and the parking
area and certain roof areas. Ne was certain they would require on-site ponding.

PtiBLIC HEARING MEETING OF AUGUST 13, 1979 PW&� 2
Co�ncilman Schneider asked how deep the ponding area would be?
Mr. Sobiech stated that after a rain it shouldn't stay for more than a
cauple of hours. He stated that hopefully it would not be any deeper than
one foot. They would maintain a minimal depth with the usage of six inct��s
across the who]e parking 7ot.
Mtr. Qureshi asked if this was the property between Zebart and Midwest Vara.
Mr. Sobiech stated that was correct.
�♦ Mr. Qureshi asked if it would be a single story office building?
The petitioner, Mr. R. C. Witt, stated that i t woul d be a story and
a hal f.
Councilman Schneider asked Mr. Witt if he had conducted the necessary so�7
samples.
Mr. Witt stated that he was waiting until he was sure the rezoning wouicld�e
approved.
Mr. Qureshi stated that if it has a high water table he did not think i#a�y
�rnuld.be able to put too much into the ground.
Mtr. Witt stated that there would just be a frost footing in the ground and
the rest would be built on piles.
IRr. Qureshi stated that if the water table was only 2 feet they might hav�
a prroblem. Mr. Witt stated he would have to check that out.
Mr. Sobiech stated that based on the scheduTing of construction for the rest
of the season, they had put the first reading up for �onsideration this evening
also.
� Cauncilman Schneider asked Mr. Sobiech to review what would be perm9ss9bi�
in a CR-1 zone.
; � Ftr. Sobiech stated that a CR-1 would allow general office and limited business
; such as real estate, lawyers, medical, etc. Mainly small offices. Limited
} retail such as optical shops and laboratories. A retail such as a 7-11 wan3d
? not be allowed.
Mtr. Qureshi stated that he was concerned about the soil conditions and w�th
the high water table they cannot fi71 it. He s tated that the Counci7 was
aware of the problem they had with the four-plexes on Pierce Street. He would
encourage the proposed builder to investigate tfiose types of things and come
up with a drainage and development plan that would be consistent with the
neighborhood and a)so provide draina�;e protection for the adjoining properties.
He would like them to keep a lot of open area rather than allowing them to
6uild with the maximum building area.
Counci]man Schneider asked if we were better off with a CR-1 zone or an M-1 zone.
Mr. Qureshi stated that we have a lot of cominercial property open now that is
available for development. M-1 is much more limited. We have a lot of
M-2. .
Councilman Schneider stated that he was concerned about the impact on the
residences and felt that the water table problem would be the same
problem regardless of wether it is commercial or industrial. The
builder may have a problem but he felt this was an opportunity to get the
zonin9 in line with something that would be more amenable to the neighbors
to the rear.
Mayor Nee agreed that the CR-1 would be better.
Cauncilwoman Moses asked if Mr. Qureshi was suggesting that before the final
approval the builder would get a soil test and work out a drainage plan?
Mr. Qureshi stated tt�at he was suggestin'g they go ahead rrith the first reading
but before the second reading, after the builder realized whether or not the
Council was amenable to the rezoning, it would be encumbunt upon the bui7der to
really check these things out.

PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF AUGUST 13, 1979

Mr. Sobiech stated that the problem with the drainage plan was that�it had to
go before the Rice Creek Watershed District. Ne asked Mr. Witt if they had
gone before the Rice Creek Watershed District yet?
Mr. Witt stated that they had not yet. There was no way of pushing those
peopie.
Mayor Nee asked what the proposal was that they had given to the Rice Creek
Watershed District? Mr. Witt stated that he was not sure, that his engineer
was handling that.
Mr. Sobiech stated that before the builder spent too much money on drainage
plans, he wanted a feeling for the rezoning.
Mr. Witt stated that a topographical survey and submitting the plan to the
Rice Creek Watershed cost him about $2,000.00. He did not want to do a topo
until he knew it would be rezoned.
Councilman Schneider asked if that had actual bearing on the rezoning which is
the question we are addressing here?
Mr. Herrick stated that he didn't think so, but it would be considerate of the
Council to point out that they may have some problems on it.' Mr. Herrick stated
that he would like to comment on the Mayor's question about the Watershed. He
suspected that the Watershed District had some pretty typical requirements for this
kind of development and it may not be so much what the builder proposes as to
what the District says what must be done if they are going to construct this
kind of building there. It is a matter of them being able to meet certain
criteria, the most important one would be that no more water leave the property
after it is developed than is leaving in its present state. That would
obviously call for some on-site storaqe. What the District will probably require
is that the developer devise the means to meet that test and then they will examine
it and if it is satisfactory they will give their approval. He didn't think the
fact of it's being industrial or commercial would make a great deal of difference.
They would still need the same criteria.
Mayor Nee stated that a lessor amount would be covered with the corrrnercial.
Mr. Herrick agreed.
Councilman Fitzpatrick stated that the owner was petitioni;�g for rezoning and it
seemed to him that their action was to decide whether the change in zoning
was beneficial to the City and to the area. It seemed to him that it was. In
the final analysis that was the only thing they were acting on.
Mr. Jerry Wraneschetz, 6355 Pierce Street NE., came forward and stated that his
home was located just in back of the proposed office building. Ne realized that
sooner or later something would be built there but would like to bring to their
atteni:ion the bad water table level in this area and the concerns of himself and
his neighbors that if this is not handled very carefully, their yards would be
under water whenever there is any heavy rain. Nnother concern was that there were
quite a few children in the neighborhood and they wanted to make sure that if
the ponding area was deep it should be fenced in or.something to keep the kids out.
He stated that because the water table was so high, if they went down three or
four feet to build the ponding area, it would jsut fill up with water anyway.
He felt there was a lot to be concerned about.
Mayor Nee explained that the City would require a certa�n amount of roof storage
and that roof water would be metered off and also the City would require a certain
amount of storage in the parking lot which would also be metered out. He felt that
rather than a pond it would be nore of a marsh. Hopefully there would be enough
space below his property to catch it and hold it.
Mr. Wraneschetz stated that he realized that the developer had to made it econo-
mically feasible but they would like the developer to build some kind of buffer
or screening between the property to the west and the proposed office building.
They would like a tall fence to make it more attractive and to screen,;out
the noise because when the leaves fall off the trees they would be looking at
a building. •

Mayor Nee asked of they would prefer the corrmercial zoning or the industrial zoning.
Mr. Wraneschetz stated that he would be more in favor of an office than a
plant. But he did want it done carefully.
Councilman 5chneider asked what the setback from Mr. Wraneschetz's property
would be•if it were zoned industrial?
Mr. Sobiech stated that it would be 100 feet but that could be parking lot.
�,; M07ION by Councilman Barnette to close the public hearing. Seconded by Councilman
� Schneider. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the public hearing
closed at 7:55 P.M.
Councilman Schneider asked why the proposed building was set so far to the
wes t? � .
Mr, Witt stated that was to make room for �the ponding area.
Mr. Sobiech stated that it was mentioned in the Planning Commission minutes
that it would be.better to have the parking lot further away from the residence.:
Councilman Schneider asked if the rezoning were approved and the building permit
issued, what steps would be taken to ensure that the drainage plan that Rice
Creek approves is followed?
Mr. Sobiech stated that no building permit would be issued without approval
of Rice Creek Watershed District.
Councilman Schneider stated that he was concerned about during the actual
construction phase.
Mr. Sobiech stated that the Building Inspectors and Engineers of the City
would be out on the site and also the residents could keep an eye on it.
� � � �
; Councilman Schneider stated that this was a more sensitive area and he felt the
� grade elevations should be double checked prior to the footings yoing in, etc.
Mr. Sobiech stated that in this case they could stipulate that with the rezoning.
Mayor Nee asked if this could drain to the street rather than the back?
Mr. Sobiech stated that might be difficult because it is a little low and the
water would come back around into this same ditch anyway.
OLD BUSINESS:
OF AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND CITY
Mr. Sobiech stated that the lst reading of the ordinance was approved last week
contingent upon the agreement in the agenda. A meeting was held this past week
and attended by the petitioner, the neighbors and a member of Council. A
consensus was reached and an amendment to the agreement was distributed to Council
this evening.
Councilwoman Moses stated that she attended the meeting. The neighbors in
attendance were Mr. Jorgenson, representing his tenants, and Mrs. Mathisen.
The major concern was that if Mr. Donut was allowed to operate on a 24 hour
' basis> Super America might do the same. Therefore they wanted to make sure that
Super America hao no recourse to change their hours to a 24 hour operation.
If that was the case, it was more agreeable to Mrs. Mathisen, but Mr. Jorgenson
wantetl to talk to his tenants about it. She stated that in talking to some of
Mr. Jorgenson's tenants this evening, another concern surfaced. Apparent1y,
there is a problem with vandalism in that neigliborhood in addition to the traffic
problem from the theater and the residents are concerned that any business that
� operates on a 24 hours basis will attract more people into the neighborhood
and cause additional prablems.
��c
PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF AUGUST 13, 1979 _ PAGE 5
One of the neighbors, Carl Paulson, came forward and stated that the agreement
was that the operation of a business �n that building would be limited to 11:00 P.M.
He stated that there would be considerable opposition by the people if they are
allowed to operate on a 24 hour basis. '
Councilwoman Moses stated that she did not feel that a Mr. Donut would attract
the kind of peopie who wouid cause problems, but it was difficuit to cortvirtce
the people in the neighborhood of that.
Ms. Mathisen stated that she was concerned about an increase in the
vandalism problem if they were allowed to be open all night. She felt
that all the people who signed the peition signed it for a reason.
Councilman Barnette suggested a compromise of an approval now with a reivew
in one year. At that time, if there are problems, they could rescind those
hours and go back to the 11:00 P.M. closing.
Mr. Herrick.stated they didn't require licensing for a donut shop as such.
His problems was that as long as this property is zoned commercial, if we
permit 24 hour operation on one, he would have a difficult time permitting
it at one location and not permitting it at another. Conceivably, the City
might a�nd the zoning code to require a Special Use Permit if a commercial
or industrial facility were to operate 24 hours a day. That would give some
flexibility. As of right now, however, we don't have that. On the basis of
the present ordinances, he did not see how they could allow a 24 hour
operation across the street, for example, the Country Kitchen was at one time a
24 hour operation, and not on these lots. Also, further down on University the
pancake operations are open 24 hours a day. The zoning there is similar to
these three lots. He felt that since it was presently zoned commercial, and they
want an establishment that meets all the requirements of the code, and they
want a 24 hour operation, and we are permitting oiher pTaces to do it, .
they could go to court and court would order us to do it.
Councilwoman Moses referred to Super Ar.ierica and asked�if they could be
open 24 hours if they wanted.
�Mr. Nerrick stated that Super America was different because they came to the
City asking for certain concessions and in return for those concessions, they
agreed to limit their operation hours.
Councilwoman Moses asked if we could then control the 24 hours because of the
variances needed?
Mr. Herrick stated that the variances did not have to be granted unless a
hardship was shown. They would have to look at what could be constructed
there without variances. If economical use of the lots can be made without
variances, then the Council is not required to grant the variances.
Councilwoman Moses asked if the current building met all the necessary
setbacks? �
Mr. Sobiech stated that it did not. It is unique property because it is
surrounded by three right of ways which indicate certain setback requirements
right off. He was not sure if Rapid Oil met the setbacks or not. It was
a small building. ,
Mr. Herrick stated they would have to take the three lots and sketch out what
would be buildable without the variances.
Councilwoman Moses referred to Councilman Barnette's proposal and stated �
that she thought they should reverse it and start with the 11:00 closing and at
a later time consider the 24 hour operation.
Mr. Herrick stated that if variances were required, the City could couple
them with certain requirements that could•be upheld if there were valid
reasons stated.
Councilwoman Moses asked if they would then have to tie the hours with approval
of the variances?

PUBLIC HEARING MEETIN6 OF AUGUST 13, 1979 PAGE 6
Mr. Herrick stated that would be one alternative.
Mr. Langseth, the petitioner, came forward and stated that they did accomplish
something at that meeting. He also stated that they did not wish to be restricted
either. He stated that much time had been consumed in finding the best use for
the property. He felt they had certain rights as the zoning ordinance stands.
However, they would like to cooperate. He stated that their position on the
� 24 hours operation was that they did not wish restrictions upon the development
they're putting on the property, not only from an economic standpoint but from
the tenants standpoint. He did not feel they were here to bargain. They were
attempting to give the City a good building on a unique piece of property and
much time has been spent in trying to develop is as best as possible.
�-"J Ma r e
yo N e asked Mr. Langseth if they had inquired of Mr. Donut what their
reaction would be not being open for business between the hours of 11:00 P.M.
and 7:00 A.M.?
Mr. Langseth stated that he had and Mr. Donut would not be interested in
negotiating that type of agreement. .
Mayor Nee stated that it appeared that the problem was that the petitioner
would not agree to a contract to limit the time and also there was a problem
of perception of threat in the neighborhood. He informed the petitioner that if
a vote was called and it were denied, �he petitioner could do nothing with it
for six months. The alternative was to table the item, which would give the
petitioner could do nothing with it for six rranths. The alternative was to
table the item, which would give the petitioner time to review the situation.
Mr. Langseth stated that they were requesting variances in the petition,
not necessarily predicated upon the 24 hour petition.
Mayor Nee stated that tt�is discussion was in regards to the rezoning and the
question of variances was later in the agenda.
_ Mr. Langseth asked if the petition to rezone_included the question of a
24 hour operation.
`` Mr. Sobiech informed the petitioner that once a rezoning issue is brought up,
there is a desire to know why the rezoning �s requested and there may or
may not be consensus to allow the rezoning based on that knowledge.
Mr. Langseth stated that he would prefer to see the item tabled rather than
killed. This would give him time to seek legal council and also, he would like
to hold another meeting in order to reach another agreement with the neighbors.
Mr. Jorgenson stated that the peuple in his building were concerned about the
24 hour operation and they would have no objection to the building if it
were limited to closing at 11:00 P.M.
MOTION by Councilwoman Moses to table the request for rezoning. Seconded
by Councilman Fitzpatrick. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee
declared the motion carried unanimously.
Mayor Nee informed the petitioner that the City would join with him in
sponsoring a meeting.

our City Contractor improve the parking lot for.him and then assess those
improvements to the property. Those assessments would take place at the time

Mr, Deblon stated the peti�;ioner proposed to build two buildin�s. One would �
be built prior to the other one� but the second one woul.d be started by the
completion time of the firGt one. There would be adequate parkin� available.
On the side zoned R-].� they would want to insure adequate screening either by
ve�etAt3on or fencin�. They observed from field"analysis that there is currently
adequ�te screening by ve�etaiion. The existing trees would add aesthetically to
the development.
Mr. Franzen stated that the City was looking at other areas of the City and
considerin„ phasin� out, over a lon� pera.od of time, �ome of the M-1 areas that
are sim�lar to this area. Staff felt that the M-1 zoning in this particular
ar.ea is incompatible with the residential areas across the street. Staff did
nbt see any problem at this �Lime with a reques� to�rzzone this property. The
pxoperty and the plan �,met all the rec�uirements of the zonin� code. A].so� this

n�z�ber required by code. He stated thafi� the proposed plan met all the requirer�ents
with one esception. A�+0 foot setbacic is requixed and the plan would noi meet
that requiremen�; at �;his tiine. Iiowever, the architect will chan;e the plan to
meet 'that requirer�ent. There is plenty of side yard and b�ck yard clearance avail-
ab1e. To their lcnowledge� the plan is otherwise sat:isfac�;ory. Rice Creek Water-
shed �J�ii �o over the pondir�� area. He si;ated they would be checking the soil
and stated there was a frost footin� around the proposed buildin�. The indepth
grou.~�d 1.evel would be 3 to 5�eet. The on]tiy area he 'thou�ht could be unsuitable

Mr. Jerry 4lraneschetz, 6355 Pierce St. PT�� came forward and stated ��.a house was
locrated i.nmediatel,y to the west of the lot in qucstion. Iie was concerned that
they don't chop do�m the trees there. ile st�ated he had tall:ed to Counci}man
Dennis Schneider and was concerned because this vacant lot acts as A holding
pond for water. When i� rains hard� �;he water ].ays .there and gradu,al]tiy seepe '
in. Zn A hard rain� the water backs up into his yard and his neishbore yard.
He would not like to s�e them blacktop the whole thing because it would make
the problem worse. .
Ms. Schnabel sugges�ted bir. Wraneschet2 look at the proposed plan� and in particular
the proposed ponding area.
Mr. Franzen stated that Rice Creek Watershed requires that the existing runoff
cannot be exceeded by ancther development. Sa� the amount of water that runs
ofi -this property ?���.�h a par:�in,; lot cannot exceed the cuxrent amount of runoff.
That 3.s the rEason i'or �Lhe pondin� area. .
Mr. Wraneschetz asked a.f they could have flat roofs to ho1d. the water.
Nir. Harris stated they would prefer not to do �hat. Ground ponding is far superior
to roof ponding. A1so, a st•Tale sl�ou].d be built. They will have to have a co�plete
draina�e plan from Rice Creek 4latershed.
Mr. Wraneschetz stated he was a1.so concerned about �the screening. In the fa]1�
when the leave fa11 off� it gets pretty bare and he would like a buffer.
Ms. Schnabel asked if tr�ere was a depxession or ditch between Mr. �lraneschetz's
.praperiy and the lo�t in ques�ion?
' Mr. Harris stated there wasn't, just the general. slape of the land which runs
to the south.
Mr. Oquist stated that this could help Mr. Wraneschetzts problem if it is done
ri�ht.
Mr. Harris stated there shouldntt be any dxainage fxom �his property onto any
othex property.
Mr. Qquist usked �hat the ex�Lerior of the buildin� would be?
r2r. jdi.t � stated it zaould be cedar wi.th brick or stone on the front. He taas not
sure abou�L i�he sides yet. , '
Ms. HugheS asl�ed if they would proceed with the projcct if for drainage reasons
or o�Lher reasons the second building was a problem?
N,r. �ditt stt�ted that because af the cost of the land� they probAbly would not
continue w�.i�li the project if �Lhey coul.dn't build bvth buildin�s.

Mx�. C1.ark stated that tYze petitionert Mr. Lan�seth, had talked to .'the PZanning

2�J�. Gabel stai;ed that sl�e would Sti1.7. qLiCation �Lhis because i�hey had never done
this before. She noted tha� �;his wou].d be goin� to Council and su��ested they
a�k Mr. Hezrick for a i��ai opinion ou �h9.s beiore it goes to.Council.
Mr. I�n�se�th stated that the plans were close to,what was proposed and also stated
that they do rneet the cod.e requirements S'or the parkin� and for the drive-throughs.
They increased the size of t;lc building s�Lrieily from an eeonom3.c stand poi.n�t. He
stated �Lhat as far as tbe variances �o, the on1.y one afiected was the one D9r.
C1ark had referred to. He aJ.so stutec� that thcy dor�'t have bumper to bumper� in
other words� the ttro rows of parkin� woul.d �o to the berm. Ri�ht now, the aspha].t
does go to .the proper�;y l.ine And they woutd create a 1�erm that �•rould be 7.andscaped
and would be in line with ��hat's on i;he other side of the property. Mr. noardman
rnentioned t aiay that at the existing openin�; �Lhere is presently a medinn and he
su�gested th,at �rhen the necr service road co:nes in around the future Super America
Gas Station, they rnove their iu�ress and egress to that point also. This would
avoid traffic problems. "
Ms. Gabel asked if the new size oi the bui].ding Wauld stay under the �4°� lot
coverage requirement?
Mr. I+an�se�th stated it would. Z'h� lot is 1.9�000 sqv�re feet and the building
Frould be ��6�+�+ sc�uare feet.� Tkie 1ot is 175 x 120 square feet.
Mr. Plemel asked if they wexe going to tear down tlie exis�Ling buil.ding?
Mr. 7�angseth stated �they would tear i�t do�m. He stated �that evexything �aould co�e
dowm and it �aould be a decorata.ve lot. It presently is designated as office-retail,
but they do not have a de�inite tenant at this �:ime.
Ms. Gabe]. asked wl�,y 57th P1.ace was the �"ron� yard when. the narrow side of the lot
is supposed ta be the fron'�?
Ntr, Clt�rk stated tha� they couldn't get access ofi Hi�,hway 1+7. He also stated that
on double fronta�e lots a.t states �hey must h�zve 35 fee�t off bath streets.
Dir. I.�ngseth st�ted �tha� �.n this case, they �Ter� bounded on three sides by streets
and if they had to go 35 feet on all three szdes, they wouJ.d not be able to put a
building thcre. Iie sta�;ed tha't �ahat they tried to do off the service road is create
the best possiUl.e image. .
I�ir. Clark stated that it wouldn't n�alce ar�y difference because they still hr�ve to
be 35 �'eet to the buildii� and 20 feet to the parkin�.
M3. Gabel. asked if �he3► had a�y' ten�ants?

Mr. Lan�seth sta�Led they did not have any defini�;e tenant;c�� but were �all:ing
to pcople. '�'he Wenche].1 llonu�; prop��a�. Fel1. t2lr.ou�h. They were lookin� at
oifice-retuil �and wo�:ld meet �he parkir��; rc�quirem<n�;s. In other words� they
couldn't have � 1�►0 �.•eat restatiran�;. `1'hey wou].d hnve more than enough parltin�Z
tor a 36 uea�t i•Sr. Dcnut and the rest o�tices. That i� their intent at this
tirne. If they u�ed all the space for office� they woulc�i defini•tely k�ave enota�h
parkin�. • � , .
t�s. Gabel Askzd iF �he rexoning would be C-2S?
Mr. Clark s'cated 3t would be C-2.
Mr. Lnngseth pointed out �that only one lot was involved in the rezoning. The
other three lots were Already C-2.
Ms. Gabel asked 3.f the pink house woul.d be part ot' tYiis?
Mr. Lan�seth stated i'c wou].d not and that t�ie pink house had 32 lots. He stated
their idea was not to put so7:ething there that would be abrasivef but� considering
the 1:ot� they would pu�t sometiv.ng that z�rovld be economically ieasible.
Mr. Clark asY.ed if they could iianction withaut the e�ress cnto 57th Place. He
stAted there was a proY�lem wi.th people driving through the existing station even
thou�h it is posted that they shpuldn't.
Idr. Lan�;se�th stat�d �hat they �1ay it would be designed wi�Lh the bexm and the side-
walY� tl?ey would no�l. be able to drive s�raight throu�h' ��hey would have to r�..ake
a jo� of aboui; 60 feet �CO ge� back out onta 57th tivenue. The one problem they
wouZd have is with a tenant on �k�e end� that t�nant would preier facing University
�venu° and �•*ou].d lik� 'theiz' door on t��e wes� S1CI@s Zt WOLL�.C� �G' an �zsset •to have •
an a.n and out there so there wc�ald not Ue co�;estion for the parkers. Wha't might
happen is that the w�st side parking woulr� become con�rested as far as in and out
goes. They wou_ld have to take �ahat is �ossible �nd �;he bes�t thin� for the bui3.ding
wou.l.d be to leave that open and deal wiih th� t�,.rai'fic problem by rr,oving� as T;r.
BoFxrdraAn su�;gested� the op�nin� to direct line it. There is almos�t 175 feet on
the east line of the property. He noted there was a cuxb on the�west end af the �
south parkinU that is �Che ].ength of a vehic.le. If they krent around there� a.t
woul.dii� t be like it zs now. From their standpoin•t, it would be bettex to leave
it open� but if it becomes a probJ.e.nt t�ha� would be different. If it were all
ofiice space� there probably wouldx�t t be any reason �to J.ea��� it open� but if
t}�ey have a tenant la.ke Mr. Donut� they would warlt it open.
ris. Gabel. noted there were only 21 parlcing spaces and asked how the ratio was"
�igured? -
h4r. Cl�xk stated tha�t the rAtio ior a r�staurant they required J. stall. for every
�+ se�z�;s and for an office �hey rec�uired 1 sta11 for encli 2j0 feet oi' office space.
So� f.or a 36 seat rest�urant, they would need 9 st�lls� and for a building of
�L2iza si�e for office� they �oould need 12 stal.�.s.
Mr-. I,�n�se�;h noted that 20� �;a 25� of the office space �aould b� used �or stoxage�
