Lease <br />agreements have not, however, been worked out for this <br />development. <br /> <br />Code Requirements: <br /> <br />The three basic components of a building permit application <br />are a plot or site plan, landscape plan, and building plan. <br />The site plan is complete and contains the required informa- <br />tion. Prominent features of the site plan are the 0riveways <br />or access routes and the number and arrangement of available <br />parking spaces. <br /> <br />The proposed development has two direct access points <br />from public roads. One driveway enters the'property from <br />a 33 foot access easement off of Mississippi Street. This <br />access easement is located immediately east of the Veterinary <br />Clinic property. The second Driveway to the property is <br />located approximately 140 feet south of the Super Valu's <br />most southerly driveway on Silver Lake Road. The site plan <br />indicates that there would be one ingress lane 17 feet in <br />width and two egress lanes with a width of 24 feet. The <br />ingress and egress lanes are shown to be separated by a 4 foot <br />median. The total width of this driveway is 45 feet which <br />exceeds the 36 feet maximum width allowed in commercial <br />zoning districts. A driveway of 45 feet in width will require <br />a variance. This driveway, as designed, provides a direct <br />route from Silver Lake Road to the driving lane immediately <br />south of the main portion of the proposed development. In <br />terms of providing quick access to the center this driveway <br />and driving lane design may be adequate. The conc8pt of <br />
