Resolution 30, Series 2015, with the following conditions: 1. The applicant shall construct an eight foot sidewalk along Dillon Road. 2. The applicant must comply with the August 25, 2015 Public Works memo prior to recordation. Commission Questions of Staff. - Moline asks about the impervious calculation. I am struggling with the 25% that is pervious. McCartney says the architect is present who can explain further how they achieved the 74.6% impervious area. In the IDDSG, sidewalks and plazas are allowed in the 25%. Rice asks does this project contain a residence? McCartney says the applicant asked for it but there is nothing in the Industrial Code or Industrial Land Use Code that allows it. Staff told the applicant they could not have a housing component. Pritchard says there is a storage facility on 95th that has housing. What was the underlying zoning on that? McCartney says the zoning was Industrial; however, that was a while ago. I cannot explain how that happened, but our current code does not allow for residential in Industrial. Brauneis asks about the impervious issue. The language in the Staff report says "the maximum building and impervious surface coverage". Building plus impervious. Does it include all the driveways and sidewalks? McCartney says yes, the total building area, parking, and the drive aisles. The plazas and sidewalks are permitted to be in the 25% pervious area. Russ says there may be an error on the slide. It should say "built" area. Applicant Presentation: Brad Bonnet, Allred and Associates, 580 Burbank Street, Suite 125, Broomfield, CO 80020 Dom Kickbush, 10880 Leroy Drive, Northglenn, CO 80233 Applicant has nothing to add. Staff has been extremely helpful in presenting the information. Staff has streamlined in getting us to this state. We appreciate all the work they have provided as well as the Fire Marshall. The owner, Dom Kickbush, and his wife are present. Commission Questions of Applicant: Rice asks about the two conditions from Staff, the sidewalk and the Public Works memo. Do you accept those? Bonnet says absolutely. We have already resolved the 8 foot sidewalk, and our Civil Engineer has made contact and is working with Public Works to resolve the memo. Brauneis says I am impressed with the choice of landscape material. Much of it is very xeric and won't need any water. It looks like there is bluegrass in the plan. Are there any City requirements that necessitate the use of bluegrass? The landscape looks like a great example
