To have enough width to meet ADA accessibility requirements, the building needed to be "pushed" back from the property line. The front setback ranges from 2'6" to 3'10". It is closer in the Core area but set back more in the Transition area. • The intention of the 20' rear setback is to provide for adequate parking spaces. With this land exchange agreement, the applicant requests that not provide parking on site; instead pay the fee -in -lieu. • The LMC has parking area calculations to be used to determine the number of parking spaces required. The calculation from the architect determines that 13 spaces are required. • The LMC does allow the fee -in -lieu to be paid. There is a provision in the land exchange contract that they will pay the fee -in -lieu as established by CC resolution or an amount of over $7,000 per space (whatever is less). CC is currently considering the fee -in -lieu rate but it has not been determined. In anticipation of the rates changing, there is an agreement that the maximum will be a little over $7,000 per space. • The applicant has requested a waiver to the 20' rear setback to facilitate the design guidelines and facilitate the intent of the land exchange so the City will have the additional parking area.
