ISSUES OF CONCERN
PLANNING:
1. Please add to the summary table the required (1,399.92) and provided employee
eating area. The required eating area is based on the new building total area of
23,332 square feet. At least 60% of the eating area requirement must be located
outdoors, with the remaining 40% of the required area allowed to be located
indoors. Please show the square footage of the eating areas on the siteMoor
plans.
2. Please identify if the project proposes to cut the manufactured slope on the east
side of the project. Grading of this slope may require the processing of a Hillside
Development Permit. Please identify the extent of the cut and indicate retaining
wall heights. The plans simply indicate a 6' high wall. Wall heights appear to
vary, this should be indicated on the plans.
3. The site plan contains too much superfluous information. Please delete all
existing improvements that are to be removed from the site plan. The site plan
should only reflect the ultimate improvements on the site. If the trailers on the
north end of the project are to be removed, please indicate how the area is
proposed to be used. Also, please indicate the existing wall heights around the
trailers.
4. The proposed loading area and parking area on the south portion of the site
does not comply with City turning radius standards or driveway width standards.
Please be advised that if the intervening slope is pushed back to the south,
adjacent to the existing slope, disturbance of the existing slope may require the
processing of a hillside development permit.
5. Building elevations should include the existing building as well as the proposed
addition. Building design must include contrasting color treatments and a variety
of building materials. Please identify on the legend of the building elevations, the
proposed color treatments for all painted surfaces and the proposed materials
used for building articulation.
6. Please submit a materials board for the proposed project.
7. Please identify whether an! roof top equipm nt is proposed. If none is proposed
at this time, please assess whether there may be a need for roof top equipment
in the future. Any proposed parapet height should be designed to adequately
screen any proposed or future roof top equipment (generally 3' minimum).
ENGINEERING:
1.
2.
The plans should include additional contour lines for the slope at the rear of the
lot, all the way up to the top of the slope of the adjacent property. Also, please
note the pad elevation of the existing building behind this project.
There is inadequate aisle width and vehicle maneuvering space on both the
lower and upper paved areas, as the minimum width required for a parking aisle
is 24 feet, and adequate space is to be provided for a vehicle to turnaround at a
dead-end aisle. We suggest the project include additional grading to push the
slope further to the rear to create one large parking area and elimination of the
dead-end aisles.
3. The drainage of the lot should be modified so that the concrete swale does not
traverse through the outdoor eating area.
4. Please identify what is proposed at the end of the new retaining wall at the east
end of the project.
