(ZOA � 66 �16) CONTINUED HARC?LD :: ames o veson representing cc, nc; . . - He�:ause the heading of this Item read'�OA #66-16, Harold Schroedert' as it was originally written up, Mr. Dumphy� referred to the Build3ng Standards-Desi$n Control Subcommittee�minutes of September I9, 1967 which read :� �'Request by Howard Dumphy, Owner '� and felt this should be corrected and would write a letter to that effect, Mr. Hughes stated that the Planning Cammission met on the 20th of June for an informal�discussion, the results af . Wh�ch have been given to all parties concerned. Mr. Solveson presented a more up-to-date plan for the Planned Development as revised, They added a piece of land at the N.W. 1�4 for access on Hugo Street, They have 411 parking for ears compared:ttt the original 415 cars. A 24 foot dedi�ation is shown alang East River Road for left :---and-r�ght turn lanes, sidewalks and sgace fox snow remova� for service right of way. They��would have to get the City's final plans before they can show their grades up to the R�.vex ---- -- Road. The garages were shown on the map. Mr:, Solveson s�id they had revised the statistics, but have not changed the bu�tldings in the Tower levEl. The original square feet of the area of the Site was 592,OOQ and was in error. The new figure 3s 559,275 square feet. The parking stall sxze is 9 feet with 64 feet between centers. . Mr. Dumphy said he had contacted the City.Engineer and t�as told there are no actual plans for�East Rivex Road so that there is no way for them to show their .plans with the Ci,ty�s. . Mr. Solveson said the garages would be about 4 feet below the road, Iiave the flat roof and would use sereenin g,� He was asked if they had considered t�e liability part of Iiaving the root so close th tfie ground. _ Mr. Dumphy sa�d the basic concep� is goin to be about the same as far as the design of the apa�rtments and commercial 3s concerned. The exterior wa11s will be th� same for the ap.artments and shopping center, The map shows a br�.ck and stucco comb3nation. Mr. Erickson asked � about the brick be3ng brought a1I the way to the.ground and Mr. Solveson stated the reason for the wh�ite stucco --was to accent the lower part of the apartments making a- continuous line around the building. Mr. Erickson informed Mr. Solvesan that�the City requires that a brick facing� should cover 60$ of the structure and wondered if the two °�loors being brick and-one floor stucco would be �dequate. kr. Jensen brought up the .faGt that a light color next to �the ground wauld S�qw staining which he.felt might be impractia 3n the �ong rur. Mx. $oiveser� said the brick would be a ��rkish'brown color. The balconies would �}�ye wrought � .. _,.�... . , I � ± ,- : � n Planning Commission Meeting -June 27 Page 3 , _ _, _. _ _ _ _ _ iron railing� � Chairman Hughes said he felt the layout of the road i� the most important thing left undone. �The right - of way on East River Road is not uniform in width. It is. important to determine what the aecess pattern will be, turn lanes, etc. The Engineering Assistant said that . there is nothing concrete at all as far as the proposed width and media with reference to the access. "In th�' original request, it was decided this would be worked out as the plan deveToped. Mr. Jensen observed that the East:River Road right oi way seems to be extraordinarily wide near the South end of this complex and narrow near the North end. Pgrhaps an additional right of way, even an access of 24 feet should be permitted near the North and perhaps nothing near the South. Tliis would force some change in the plans, but it might be such a ihing that park.ing space may be lost in the North and perhaps additional parking spaces obtained ' at the South end near East River Road. The Engineering :--�kssistant said they did not talk about a taper up ta this point. Mr. Dumphy felt there would be ample time to woxk out.the street pattern as it will take some timQ to hav� -- the actual.final plans of the buildings to be drawn, Mx. Erickson wondered if there were any agreement� that cpuld be used on the general plan because a rezoning on the corner of Ruth Street and a vacation of streets will take some time to process. He said that he did not �eei he would object to the change of design particularly if the br�tck came to the ground. Mr. Jensen felt the landscaping speaifications were fairly comprehensive. � � Chairman Hughes stated that, at this paint, i� the Planning Commission wished to act, it should be in the � direction of agreeing in general w�th the plans as presented and call for additional detailing before final appxoval is given, and to agree with these plans as.preliminary. � Mr. Jensen said he thought it would only be proper to have some elevations of the commercial property relat�ve to th�.s change in exterior change in appearance at some future time . - - _ . _ - _ . _ _ _ _ _ . _ MOTIDN by Erickson, seconded�by Myhra�that th� Plan� ning Commission recommend a roval of the change in � desi�n of Spring roo ar to t e ounci wi is � reliminar lan sub ect to a rova o t e inal�3ahs t a t e Council be re ueste to examine�t e re iminax plans and report as to their acceptance o t is u an, . tipon a voice vote, all voting aye, the motion carried, Chairman Hughes stated that they want it to be cleax to the Ceuncil that the Commission agrees in g�n�ral with the plans as submitted and request that Council also indic.��e� tha�� opin�on. �'here arg ��umber of things th�t the Commission faunri in8pplicable`or undesirable or n a i� Planning Commission Minutes Page 4 subject to some revision name�X in th� design as presented so far �nd apparently should be list.ed: 1) The brick facing � on the apartment building should continue down to the � `finished grade. Also, it must meet the 6O� requirement o� exterior brick material. 2) Before final appxoval, the Engineering Department should resolve the street.access problem on East River Road to the�commercial property together with pnoper easements, sidewalks, planting aTo��:�� the apartment and commercial comp2ex should be sufficient to proteet the R-1 property. 3) Elevations to commercial �, property be provided. 4} Parking adequacy should be determined by the Building Inspection Department. 5)� Necessary request for rezoning of tracts that are not included in PD Development zoning should be requested, vacation of existing streets in traet. All other require- ments of the PD district must be`complete before firial aPProval. � . Mr. Dumphy brought up the matter of Lots 32, 33, 34 and 35. They were shown in the original plan and � accepted at that time although he did not own them then. In the meantime, he p�irchased the property and wondered if he.would have to go through the rezaning process again. - Chairman Hughes said he knew of no way this can be waived. 2. LOT SPLIT RE UEST CONTINU�ED : L.S._�68-09 ROBERT DEGARDNER: �ots t ru ,�loc , pring �roo cT��ar cT—Ad3�ition. Mr. DeGardner eacplained that he has four lpts facing East River Road. In regard to Lot 26, which the Planning Commission had suggested he purchase, the lot is tsx. forfeit and he is unable to fine the owner. The sa�e a� the lot would not come�up until next spring. The Subcommittee's recommendat�on�was that Lot 2b be purchased, Mr. Jensen said, in order to eliminate a driveway onto the East River Road and the size of the pro- posed lot split with the 26 foot Iot would increase the size to meet minimum lot size even though there would be a variance on lot width, - - � Mr. Erickson remi.nded Mr. De�ardner that these are undersized lots. Mr. DeGardner said he would probablg have . . to buy the two lots (Lots 26 ar�d 27), but because of the s�ze, he di,d not see how he could utilize them. n Chai�man Hughes offered that because the owner of Lot 26 can not be Iocated, that_the petitioner would be delayed in his construction if we did not take action� at this time.. Mr. DeGardner has indicated the lot split is reasonable similar to the buildings that are going up in the area at this time. � - Mr. Erickson said he agre�d �►�th Cbairman Hugfie� and would make the follow3ng mvt3.on, Planning Committee..Meeting June 28 Page 5 � MOTION�by Erickson seconded b M hra that, h . , y y , t e P l a n n i n g .
