All in favor. DISCUSSION/DIRECTION - FINAL pun DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR CARRABBA'S IT ALlAN RESTAURANT - ILOT IB - CENTENNIAL V ALLEY PARCEL H Davidson called for staff presentation. Paul Wood, Planning Director, stated that Carrabba's Italian Grill has flIed an application for a Final PUD Development Plan to construct a full-service restaurant on Lot 1 B Centennial Valley, Parcel H, which is located immediately to the east of Ruby Tuesday's, fronting onto Dillon Road. The PUD proposes a building area of 6,645 sf, which results in a (Floor Area Ratio) FAR of approximately .10, based upon a lot are:a of 66,598 sf. The PUD, if authorized, would not exceed the , Average Floor Area Ratio' of .27, as a!llocated to Parcel H by the Sixth Amendment to the: Amended and Restated Development Agreement approved in March of 1996. The PUD proposes a total of 93 parking spaces. A total of 99 spaces are required based upon the Commercial Design Development Standards and Guidelines (CDDSG) requirement of 15 spaces per 1,000 sf. The applicant's request letter indicates that an additional 25 spaces to be used primarily for employee parking are being requested from the owner of Lot 6B. The spaces are to be for the exclusive use of Carrabba' s and not a cross-parking agreement. While the spaces are within 300 feet of the proposed building, the applicant has not addressed how those will be secured and enforced. . . Seating capacity of the restaurant is 230 patrons. Based upon gross lot area, the PUD proposed 26% landscaping on site, which is less than the 30% required under the CDDSG. That shortfall equates to a deficit of approximately 2,600 sf of open space. Based upon a CDDSG requirc~ment that 75% of the open space be green scape, there is a deficit of approximately 4,800 sf of on-site landscaping. There is an additional 1,996 sf of landscape area installed on the exterior porches of the building. The applicant is requesting authorization to apply the landscaping on the roof, as well as an off-site 2,125 sf of landscaping on Tract C toward the landscape requirement. Tract C is a privately owned and maintained detention facility. The City has not granted off-site landscape credits to PUD applicants, although Quality Inn Suites had requested credit from Tract D. The proposed building orientation and architecture calls for the front of the building to face south, the entrance to face west, backing the rear/service area to face Dillon and the primary access easement into Parcel H from Dillon Road. The south and west building elevations are constructed of a reddish brick, while the east and north elevations reflect a simulated stone and EFIS exterior finish. Overall building height is 19', with the extended parapet wall shown as part of the south building elevation at 26'. 21
