G. SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE COMMENT: (August 27, 2014)
Mr. Tim Daters of White-Daters and Associates was present representing the
request. Staff presented an overview of the development stating there was an
associated application to allow the creation of a two (2) lot plat with this lot being
proposed Lot 1. Staff requested additional information concerning the use of
space within the building. Staff also requested Mr. Daters provide the proposed
construction material of any proposed fencing.
Public Works comments were addressed. Staff stated a dedication of right of
way was required along South Shackleford Road to meet the Master Street Plan
requirements. Staff also stated the driveways as indicated on the site plan did
not comply with the minimum driveway spacing criteria of the ordinance. Staff
requested Mr. Dates provide an evaluation of the existing downstream
development and an analysis of the runoff from both pre and post development.
Staff noted the comments from the various other agencies. There were no more
issues for discussion. The Committee then forwarded the item to the full
Commission for final action.
H. ANALYSIS:
The applicant submitted a revised site plan to staff addressing a number of the
issues raised at the August 27, 2014, Subdivision Committee meeting. The
applicant has provided the proposed uses of the space within the building and
the proposed construction materials. Mr. Daters has also provided a request for
a variance to allow the southern driveway within 150 -feet of the south property
line. Mr. Daters has also provided a request for an in -lieu contribution for
stormwater detention.
The requested site plan review is required per the existing 1-1, Industrial Park
Zoning District. The development is proposed on a 23.35 -acre parcel. The
building proposed will be used as an office/warehouse. The building is proposed
containing a total of 287,529 square feet of space. Within the total square
footage 20,967 square feet is proposed as office space, 19,500 square feet as
ancillary space, 45,812 square feet as space for interior loading of trucks and
100,450 square feet of warehouse. Included in the total is a 100,800 square foot
expansion area for future development. The building exterior will be a mix of
concrete tilt up panels, masonry and metal siding.
The site plan also includes the placement of a detached vehicle maintenance
building with wash and fueling facilities. The building is proposed 95 -feet by
158 -feet (15,010 square feet).

The site plan includes the placement of 168 -parking spaces for employee and
customer parking. Based on the use of the buildings in the breakdown of how
the area will be used a total of 83 -parking spaces would typically be required.
The site plan indicates the placement of a 100 -foot zoned buffer along the
northern and eastern perimeters of the site. A perimeter fence is located a
minimum of 131.5 -feet from the northern property line and 141.2 -feet from the
eastern property line. Fence heights allowed in Industrial Zones between the
required building setback line and a street right of way is a maximum height of
nine (9) feet. All other fences may be erected to a maximum height of nine (9)
feet. The site plan indicates eight (8) foot fences will be installed on the property
lines in the areas outside the zoned OS buffer on the property line.
The 1-1, Industrial Park District has development criteria related to the placement
of buildings. The ordinance states every use or any part thereof that is not
conducted within a building completely enclosed on all sides shall be enclosed
within a wall or fence six (6) feet in height. Such wall or fence shall completely
screen all operations conducted within such wall or fence from observation. No
exterior storage area shall encroach into any of the required yards. A note on the
site plan states screening will be provided as per Section 36-523. The ordinance
states the activities to be screened include, but are not limited to, parking lots,
drives, sanitation areas, commercial static display of merchandise, loading
docks, utility service facilities and heating and air conditioning equipment. The
applicant states all loading dock areas visible from the street will be screened per
the typical ordinance standards.
All buildings shown on the required site plan shall cover an aggregate area of not
more than fifty (50) percent of such site. The lot area is 23.35 acres or
1,017,126 square feet. The total building square footage including future
expansion areas contains 302,539 square feet or 29.7 -percent of building
coverage.
The ordinance states no part of any building or accessory structure 7shall be
located closer than one hundred (100) feet to any residential district boundary.
There is a 100 -foot zoned OS, Open Space buffer along the northern and
eastern perimeters where abutting residentially zoned property. The property to
the south is zoned R-2, Single-family as well. The southern building setback
proposed is 191 -feet.

The maximum sign height allowed in Industrial zones is 30 -feet and the
maximum sign area is 72 -square feet. Building signage is limited to a maximum
of 10 percent of the fagade area where abutting the public street. The signage
as proposed is consistent with typical ordinance standards.
The request includes a variance to allow the driveway located along the southern
perimeter nearer the property line than typically allowed. The south driveway
should be located at least 150 -feet from -the south property line. According to the
applicant to place the driveway consistent with the ordinance would cause
operational problems which the developer does not want in this new facility. The
applicant states the development has almost 1,000 -feet of frontage on
Shackleford Road and is proposing to have only three (3) driveways, with the
center drive shared.
Staff does not support the driveway spacing variances. The plat is for two (2)
lots on 30 -acres with 1,000 feet of street frontage. Staff feels the driveway
locations should have been considered with the design of the site plan. Staff
also requests the applicant provide a letter to certify the sight distance of the
proposed driveway location complies with AASHTO standards. The applicant
should contact Nat Banihatti at 501.379.1818 for sight distance requirements.
The request also includes payment in -lieu of stormwater detention. The
applicant states the downstream storm drainage in this vicinity of Timberland
Drive is likely undersized. He states in the early 1970's the drainage course
consisted of open ditches above and below Timberland Drive with a short culvert
under the street. Between 2002 and 2004 several homes were constructed
along Timberland and the open ditch was enclosed. The new pipes are likely
undersized for the existing 40 -acre, largely undeveloped basin. He states in lieu
of on-site detention the Developer would like to work with the City in a
cooperative effort to have the existing undersized storm drainage replaced. The
existing storm drain piping installed in 2002/2004 is so grossly undersized
increased on-site detention is not realistic.
Staff is not supportive of the applicant's request. Currently, flooding occurs along
Brodie Creek within the Tall Timber Subdivision. The residential structures within
the Tall Timber Subdivision are located within the 100 -year floodplain. To reduce
flooding within the subdivision, Brodie Creek should be channelized from West
36th Street to Fourche Creek and the Hwy 5 box culverts enlarged. Staff believes
stormwater detention should be provided and/or downstream drainage
improvements be completed as found in Section 29-102 to not make flooding
conditions worse.

Although staff is generally supportive of the overall plan staff is not in support of
the driveway spacing variance or the variance for payment in -lieu for the
stormwater detention ordinance requirements.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends denial of the application request as submitted.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (SEPTEMBER 18, 2014)
The applicant was present. There were no registered objectors present. Staff
presented the item stating they had received additional information concerning the
proposed site plan and needed additional time to review the information. Staff
presented a recommendation of deferral of the item to the October 30, 2014, public
hearing.
There was no further discussion. The Chair entertained a motion for approval of the
item as presented by staff. The motion was approved by a vote of 9 ayes, 0 noes and
2 absent.
STAFF UPDATE:
The applicant submitted a revised site plan and preliminary plat to staff addressing
staff's concerns previously related to the driveway locations and the proposed
detention. The revised site plan/preliminary plat indicates the placement of the northern
most drive located as a shared drive between Lots 1 and 2. The southern drive is
located 40 -feet from the southern property line and is indicated for employee and truck
traffic deliveries only.
Staff previously raised concerns related to the use of the OS, Open Space zoned buffer
for stormwater detention. According to the applicant in working with staff the facilities
will be designed to ensure that the peak discharge for the 100 -year flood event, after
development of the site, will not exceed the existing peak flows.
The applicant has indicated a stone and rock berm will be placed along the northern
perimeter a minimum of 50 -feet from the northern and north eastern property line within
the OS, Open Space zoned buffer. The height of the berm will vary with the typical
height being four (4) feet. The plat/site plan includes a note which states additional
screening will be placed where required nearer the proposed facility to include dense
evergreen plantings, opaque metal or wood fencing or chain link with screening slats to
create an opaque screen.

ITEM NO.: E (Cont._) FILE NO.: Z -5810-A
The detention proposed along the eastern boundary is also a rock and stone structure
with a similar height. The berm is proposed at ten (10) feet from the eastern property
line but the applicant has indicated the berm will be moved as far as feasible from this
property line. According to the applicant the further the berm is moved from this
property line the height of the berm must be increased. The applicant states the
facilities will be designed, with the approval of Public Works staff, to be physically
located as far from the eastern boundary as possible. Additional screening will also be
placed within this area as required to ensure the adjacent property is fully screened
from this proposed development.
The applicant has indicated very few of the trees within the OS, Open Space buffer will
be removed to allow for installation of the rock and stone berm. The applicant has not
provided staff with a plan to review to ensure this will be the case. Staff recommends
prior to beginning construction the applicant work with staff in marking the trees to be
removed and to stagger the trees which will be removed and not allow a direct line of
view from this property or any adjacent property to the cleared area.
As noted staffs previously raised concerns have somewhat been addressed. Staff is
now supportive of the request. Staff recommends approval of the request subject to
compliance with the comments and conditions as outlined in paragraphs D, E and F of
the agenda staff report.
Staff recommends the applicant mark all trees to be removed and work with staff prior to
beginning construction to ensure the integrity of the buffer is maintained.
The zoning ordinance does not allow the use of slats with the chain link fence to provide
screening. Staff recommends the applicant provide a means of providing screening
which is in compliance with the typical standards of the zoning ordinance.
