PROPOSAL: To construct a total of 113,564 square feet
(three buildings) of commercial space and 446 parking spaces

ANALYSIS:
The staff has reservations about the site plan for this
project. It is deficient in many ways. The site plan needs
to be revised to show a 40 feet front yard landscaped area
(no parking allowed,Hilaro Springs Road). In addition, the
site plan should indicate landscape and screening on the
south and east to protect the adjacent single family areas.
The applicant should construct a berm with intermittent cuts
for drainage, a 6 feet opaque screening fence, and plant
trees on 40 feet centers adjacent to the single family areas
located on the south and the east. Finally, a number of
additional site plan revisions will be required in
accordance with the City Engineering Comments as listed
below.
