West: Interstate 35W <br />SITE PLAN ANALYSIS <br />The applicant is proposing to construct a 24' x 42', four car attached garage at the northwest <br />corner of the existing building. The existing 32' x 50' attached garage space is in the process of <br />being concerted to office space. Approximately 1/2 of the proposed garage addition will be <br />located over existing parking area, which provided access of the former garage space. <br />Staff examined the following issues with respect to the Site Plan request: <br />Building Setbacks <br />Section 5-010 <br />Required <br />Existing <br />Proposed <br />North (side) <br />5' <br />45' <br />5' <br />South (side) <br />5' <br />13' <br />No change <br />West (rear) <br />0' <br />15.5' <br />9' <br />East (front) <br />30' <br />69' <br />No change <br />The proposed setbacks for the attached garage addition meet the minimum standards of Section <br />5-010. <br />Building Height <br />Zoning Code Section 5-040 (1) allows a maximum building height of two stories or 36 feet, <br />whichever is less. The proposed garage addition's peak height is approximately 14', lower than <br />the existing office building and less than the maximum allowed under Section 5-040 (1) of the <br />Zoning Code. <br />Parking <br />Shared parking easements are in place with the undeveloped property to the north, which the <br />applicant is still in partial ownership of. Being the adjoining parcel to the north is slated for <br />Limited Business uses, staff finds leaving the shared parking and access easements in place is <br />reasonable as it limits access points out onto a County roadway. Because of the shared parking <br />arrangement, no parking lot setback is required from the north property line. Additionally, the <br />applicant is proposing to pave the remaining portion of the shared parking easement area on the <br />northerly vacant lot, which will add additional parking stalls. In accordance with Zoning Code <br />Section 11-020(6), the site meets the 30' front yard parking lot setback, 5' side yard parking lot <br />setback (including the 5' northerly side yard setback for the northerly vacant lot), and 5' rear <br />yard parking lot setback. <br />Based on existing and proposed uses, the following number of parking stalls is required: <br />Existing office & garage space being converted to office: 2,304 SF + 1,600 SF = 3,904 SF — <br />10% = 3,514 SF / 200 SF =18 stalls <br />
