Davidson stated that the applicant has not provided a letter of credit or an agreement to resolve the drainage issue in spite of the time and extensions allowed. He fears the City will agree to a land exchange but will not receive a correction to the drainage issue in return. Mayer stated that Council should remain consistent with the previous practice of not passing an Ordinance until all the issues are resolved. Sisk moved that Council disapprove and deny Ordinance No. 1279, Series 1998 - An Ordinance Authorizing the Sale and Conveyance of a Parcel of Land Owned by the City of Louisville, seconded by Levihn. Roll call was taken. Motion passed by a 7-0 vote. RESOLUTION No. 23, SERIES 1998 - FINAL PUD DEVELOPMENT PLAN - LOT 11, BLOCK 2, CTC, 465 SOUTH PIERCE AVENUE Davidson called for staff introduction. Ken Johnstone, Acting Planning Director, stated this application is for a Final PUD for a 12,000 sf building on the west side of South Pierce in the CTC. JE & S Video is proposing to occupy the eastern half of the building with the balance available for lease in two tenant spaces. Most of the Planning Commission conditions have been met with this revised submittal. The site plan is fairly typical for smaller buildings in the CTC. Applicable building and parking setbacks have been met. Two curb cuts are proposed onto South Pierce. For a lot this size, staff typically discourages two curb cuts, though it does not introduce any conflicts in this location. Parking is provided at a ratio of 2.6 spaces per 1,000 sf. Bike parking and employee break areas have been identified on the site. Landscaped coverage is proposed at approximately 35 percent, exceeding the 25 percent minimum. The building is proposed to be constructed generally of site cast concrete panels with horizontal and vertical reveals. The Planning Commission approved the application with fifteen conditions, nine of which have been met. The applicant has agreed to comply with all outstanding conditions. Davidson called for the applicant's presentation. Joseph Ginther, 1539 Pearl Street, Suite 240, Boulder, Colorado, the architect for the project, gave a brief presentation on the landscaping, provided material color samples and was available to answer any questions. Davidson called for Council questions and comments. Howard asked for the applicant's plans to address the four Planning Commission conditions. Ginther replied all four conditions have been met in the proposal before Council tonight. Lathrop asked that the PUD include a location map. 5
