City Council Meeting Minutes November27 2018 Page 3 of 12 ON LOTS 3 AND 4, BLOCK 2, THE BUSINESS CENTER AT CTC, REPLAT B - 2nd READING, PUBLIC HEARING (advertised Daily Camera 11/11/18) RESOLUTION NO. 53, SERIES 2018 — A RESOLUTION APPROVING A FINAL SUBDIVISION PLAT TO VACATE AN EXISTING LOT LINE AND AN AMENDMENT TO THE FINAL PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT TO ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION OF AN ADDITION TO THE EXISTING BUILDING AND ASSOCIATED SITE IMPROVEMENTS ON THE PROPERTY AT 194 TAYLOR AVENUE Mayor Muckle introduced the ordinance and resolution and opened the public hearing. Planner Ritchie stated an updated resolution was presented to Council tonight. This is an easement vacation, replat, and PUD amendment. She reviewed the site noting this plan will vacate an existing lot line to make one lot and vacate an easement that is no longer needed. The plan is for the construction of an addition to an existing building. The plan does exceed the height limit but as it is architectural and does not include floor area it meets the design guidelines. She reviewed the proposed materials; the metal areas are an accent and meet the design guidelines. The proposal includes solar panels on the existing building's roof and walls, this too meets the design guidelines. The -applicant is requesting to defer 96 spaces of parking until such time as it is needed. The applicant notes the parking is not needed for the current use of the building however the PUD will include a note that the City can require the applicant construct the deferred parking at any time. Ritchie stated the application meets the IDDSG standards with a waiver for the parking and the use of metal is appropriate. Staff recommends approval for both the ordinance and the resolution. The new resolution includes conditions from Public Works. Councilmember Maloney asked if the deferred parking will meet future needs and how it can be enforced in later years. Ritchie stated this will be tracked on the PUD by a note. It will be checked every time a tenant finish permit or business license is requested. That is checked on every application. Councilmember Maloney asked how the on -street parking is enforced and if employees are using it. Ritchie noted the owner's association enforces the on -street parking throughout the park. The PUD states the parking needs must be met on site. Councilmember Stolzmann asked if this meets the 2 spaces per 1000. Ritchie stated yes. Councilmember Stolzmann wonders why this size of a building does not require more parking. Ritchie stated this will be reconfirmed when the interior building permits are reviewed and it is clear how many people the building is serving.
