F. ISSUES/TECHNICAL/DESIGN:
Landsca e:
Areas set aside for buffers and landscaping meet with
ordinance requirements except for the building landscape
area. The Landscape Ordinance requires a three foot wide
building landscape area between the public parking area and
building. There is some flexibility with this part of the
ordinance. However, a minimum of one third of this
requirement must be satisfied.
Because of the difference in elevation along the northern
perimeter, a cross section should be provided detailing the
method of slope treatment that will be employed.
Curb and gutter or another approved border will be required
to protect landscaped areas from vehicular traffic.
Issues:
Planning Division:
G. ANALYSIS: No comment, conforms to land use plan.
H. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
Approval of the plan and variances subject to conformance
with Public Works and Landscape Comments.
