CATA: The site is located on CATA Bus Route #25, the Highway 10 Express Route. Planning Division: This request is located in the Chenal Planning District. The Land Use Plan shows Transition for this property. The applicant has applied for a PCD for office and commercial activities. A land use plan amendment for a change to Mixed Use is a separate item on this agenda (Item No. 23, File No. LU05-19-01). Master Street Plan: Cantrell Road is shown as a Principal Arterial and Katillus Road is shown as a Local Road on the plan. Cantrell Road is built as a five -lane road through that area. The primary function of a Principal Arterial is to serve through traffic and connect major traffic generators or activity centers within urbanized areas. Cantrell Road may require dedication of right-of-way. Katillus Road will require dedication of right-of-way and half street improvements. Since this property is located adjacent to a Principal Arterial, access to the site should be limited to the adjacent Local Street, as to not impede through traffic. Existing or proposed Class I, II, or III bikeways are not in the immediate vicinity of the development.

An automatic irrigation system to water landscaped area will be required. Prior to a building permit being issued, it will be necessary to provide an approved landscape plan stamped with the seal of a Registered Landscape Architect. Revised plat/plan: Submit four (4) copies of a revised preliminary plan (to include the additional information as noted above) to staff on Wednesday, December 29, 2004.
