1 Town Lakes, Lot 3, Site and Building Plan Review
Findings of Fact and Decision
The west elevation of the building provide additional architectural features that
provide relief from the long continuous building mass along County Road 19. Of
specific concern is the long extended roof line without any interruption of
appearance.
2. The following access issues require modifications of the site plan:
a. The southernmost access point should be shifted north to align with the
access point into Lot 4.
b. The northern access point should be eliminated and a common access be
created between Lot 3 and Outlot A to align with the common access
between Lot 2 and Lot 4. With the elimination of the northern access,
additional parking should be provided.
3. The sidewalk along the front of the building should be extended southward to
connect with the common sidewalk that will run throughout the plat.
4. The parking lot shall have a bituminous surface and a continuous concrete
curbing that will surround the entire parking lot, driveway and loading areas. The
applicant must submit a snow storage or snow removal plan for the site.
5. The applicant shall enter into a shared agreement with the property owner to the
north for a shared access and parking in the event of occupancy change that
would require additional parking on Lot 3. Said agreement shall be a recordable
document that will run with the property.
6. The applicant shall provide a detailed photometric plan for all Lot 3 that illustrates
both pole location and light quantities at the property lines for the parking lot and
loading area.
7. With the adjusted site access, the site plan should demonstrate adequate
maneuvering and turning radii for large trucks entering and exiting the delivery
access area for the building. The applicant must address with truck maneuvering
templates how truck circulation for delivery of goods will occur.
8. The landscape should be modified to address the following issues:

the parking lot to insure that headlight glare from the parking lot does not
interfere with the use of private streets to the south.

triangle at the intersection of the two private streets. Within this traffic
visibility triangle, no planting should exceed 30 inches or, if over story

Landscaping in this area should be pushed northward along the south end
of the parking lot to insure that this area is properly screened and
landscaped.
