I. RECOMMENDATION That the Design Review Board ADOPT Resolution No. 117 DENYING RP 87-10, based on the findings contained therein. II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant is requesting a major Redevelopment Permit to construct a 5,444 square foot, two-story building on a level .24 acre site. The proposed structure will consist of four warehouse/storage areas at the ground level and four offices at the second level. This is proposed to serve the needs of small businessmen and contractors who need both office and storage space. Twelve parking spaces have been provided to serve the project. The subject site is presently vacant and is apparently used as an illegal parking lot for adjacent industrial uses located along Tyler Street. Properties to the north and east are developed with older single family residences. A commercial development, Lola's Market, also exists to the east. Property to the south is developed with Gilbert's Auto Body, which is under construction. Property to the west along Tyler Street is developed with K and K Vitamins, Jobe Gay Concrete, and Andrews Towing. III. ANALYSIS 1) Does the proposed project conform with the goals of Subarea 4 of the Village Redevelopment Area, including the Special Treatment Area for the east side of Tyler Street? MAY 18, 1988 RP 87-10 ROWE-BECHMANN PAGE 2 2) Does the proposed project comply with the development standards of the Village Design Manual? 3) Does the proposed project comply with City standards regarding queuing and loading areas? 4) Does the proposed project comply with the requirements of the Zone 1 Local Facilities Management Plan? DISCUSSION A. Goals of Subarea 4 The proposed project is located at the southern end of Subarea 4 in the Village Redevelopment Area which has traditionally functioned as a heavy commercial, light manufacturing area. This portion of the City is seen as possibly functioning as a major repair, service, and distribution center encouraging uses such as contractors' yards, storage areas, cabinet manufacturing, and neighborhood commercial uses. The subject site is also located within the Special Treatment Area for the east side of Tyler Street. Because this is a through lot, it also has frontage along the west side of Roosevelt Street. This area has been deemed by the Housing and Redevelopment Commission to allow only those uses which have a lesser intensity than C-M zone uses. The blocks located between Roosevelt and Tyler are particularly difficult to develop because uses on each street are of a very different nature and intensity. The applicant has tried to address this issue with his site design and at the same time comply with the goals of Subarea 4. As shown on Exhibit "X", the subject site is a through lot fronting on both streets. To provide compatibility with the uses on Roosevelt Street, the applicant has increased the front yard setback on this street to 32 feet. This far exceeds the setbacks provided by other commercial uses on Roosevelt — Gilbert's Auto Body, Dave's Radiator, and Lola's Market which have front yard setbacks ranging from 0' to 10'. An architectural style with beige stucco, brown composition shingles and brown wood trim makes the structure appear to be a small office building with roll-up doors. Although a very simple and plain design, the architecture is compatible with what has been previously provided in the area. The proposed project meets the goals of Subarea 4 by providing a use which assists in revitalizing this area of MAY 18, 1988 RP 87-10 ROWE-BECHMANN PAGE 3 downtown, serves the needs of small businessmen in the area, and addresses compatibility with Roosevelt Street. B. Village Desian Manual Standards The proposed project also complies with all of the design standards for Subarea 4 of the Village Redevelopment area. Because the project fronts on both Roosevelt and Tyler Streets, parking has been provided on both sides of the building. Eight spaces have been provided on Tyler and four on Roosevelt. This complies with the parking ordinance. Landscaping requirements have been provided through the use of perimeter landscaping — 8'on Tyler, 9' on Roosevelt, and 4' along the interior property lines. Overall, 24% of the site will be covered with landscaping. All setbacks have been far exceeded with 50' provided on Tyler, 32' on Roosevelt, and 11» on the interior property lines. The applicant has met all zoning requirements and has provided greater setbacks and more landscaping than any other project in the immediate area. C. Oueuing and Loadina Areas As stated above, the applicant has provided parking on both Tyler Street and Roosevelt Street. However, the design of the parking spaces is in conflict with required queuing and loading areas. City standards require queuing areas to be a minimum of 20 feet for each 1000 ADT or fraction thereof. The queuing depth is measured from the back of the sidewalk. City standards require loading zones to be free of parking stalls and obstructions and must not impede free movement and circulation of passenger vehicles. The applicant has requested exception to these standards based on the small size of the project as well as the small traffic generated by the project (66.9 ADT's). A queuing distance of 20' is proposed on Roosevelt and a queuing distance of 8' on Tyler. The applicant also believes that only smaller trucks will be utilized and that these will unload within the structure. Although adjacent properties have similar constricted parking and little, if any, queuing or loading areas, the proposed project does not comply with engineering standards, therefore, engineering staff cannot recommend approval of the project. D. Public Facilities Adequacy This project is located within Local Facility Management Zone 1. The impacts on future public facilities by this project have been analyzed to ensure compliance with the MAY 18, 1988 RP 87-10 ROWE-BECHMANN PAGE 4 Facilities and Improvements Plan. Attached is Exhibit "Y" which is a summary chart that highlights the impacts generated by this project for all 11 public facilities. This project creates no adverse impacts on any of the City's public facilities and conforms with the adopted Local Facilities Management Plan for this Zone. Summary The proposed use is consistent with the goals of the Village Design Manual and the Special Treatment Area for the east side of Tyler Street. It also meets all the design standards for Subarea 4 and is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. The proposed project, however, does not comply with the engineering standards for loading and queuing areas, therefore, staff recommends denial of RP 87-10. IV.
