Special Use Permit – Apple Tree Dental Planning Commission Report; 6-20-23 Page 9 (cont.)  There are positives and negatives with both options, but staff believes either would fulfill the intent of code.  As this is not a customer destination, reliable hours for this site (according to the applicant) will likely be 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., with a majority of the workforce operating from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Accordingly, potential impacts from parking lot lights will be limited to winter months at the end of the typical workday. No unique impacts to adjacent areas are expected, and either of the proposed screening approached should serve the intended purpose. Parking & Traffic:  There are no traffic concerns. The proposed garage addition will not generate significant new trips, and the new use is a permitted use in the MUN zoning district.  On-site parking will increase from 31 to 35 surface parking spaces with the proposed changes. Under the “office” use designation in the MUN district, parking should be right-sized for the business with an upper limit of 40 spaces based on an approximate 8,000 sq ft building. Spaces as proposed will therefore meet code standards. Signage  Any proposed signage would need to be permitted though the City’s separate sign permit review process. Storm water / Grading / Erosion:  Because there is no storm sewer in this area of the community, management of stormwater with this project is a primary concern for engineering. As a condition of approval, the applicants shall be required to address all engineering concerns in the attached 6/15/2023 Engineering memo.  No RCWD permit is required as the proposed area of disturbance is just under the 10,000 square foot threshold which triggers the permit requirement. Because this is a cumulative threshold, the applicant should understand that any future changes or projects will very likely trigger the RCWD Rule C provisions. Fire/Safety:  Prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy, a fire protection engineer shall be hired by the applicant to determine if the new commodity matches the sprinkler density of the building. Work of the fire protection engineer shall be coordinated with the local Fire Marshal. Lighting:  Lighting on the garage shall not shine directly into the public right-of-way or onto any residential use. As a condition of the SUP, the applicant shall be required to correct any lighting problems that are identified following construction (none are anticipated).
