for additional interest. The building is 20-feet tall and includes parapets that will screen the roof -top mechanical units. The 100,000 sf industrial building is constructed of tilt -up concrete. Portions of the exterior will be clad with wood siding and fiber cement panels along with aluminum canopies and roof accents. Three entry areas are shown on the west frontage to accommodate a mix of tenants as the building leases out. The PUD proposes 18 parking spaces for the convenience store, one of which is ADA accessible. The CDDSG requires 16 spaces minimum. Parking for the industrial building assumes a mix of warehouse and retail/office uses with a total of 196 parking spaces, 7 of which are ADA accessible. The parking ratio for the site is 2 spaces per 1,000 sf. Similar to properties in the CTC, parking will be managed through review of the building permit and business license approvals to ensure future tenants' parking needs can be accommodated on the property. The proposal includes a request for three waivers. The first is a request for relief from the architectural building material standard for the east elevation (rear) facing the future trail and BNSF railroad. The second is for relief from the building perimeter landscaping requirement due to geotechnical concerns related to water at the foundation and the third is related to private street tree requirements. Full descriptions of these requests and rationale for staff's findings are included in the analysis section below.
