3. Site Area Composition
Property Area ..... 9.4 acres.... 409,464 sq.ft.
Floodplain Area..... 1.6 acres.... 69,696 sq.ft.
Buildable Area ..... 7.8 acres.... 339,768 sq.ft.
4. Parking - 230 parking spaces or 1.55 per unit.
C. ENGINEERING CONSIDERATIONS
1. Provide an in -lieu contribution toward the
construction of Rock Creek Parkway after
discussing the contribution with the City
Engineer.
2. The entrance proposed appears to violate the
Master Street Plan. It should be discussed with
the City Engineer.
3. Show floodplain on the plat.
D. ANALYSIS
This proposal includes request for site plan review of
a multiple building site that includes 148 units of
apartments; a day-care center for 75 children, 8
employees and a request for variance which will allow a
20-foot encroachment into a 25-foot setback area.
Staff's reservations involve the latter two requests.
Approval of the site plan does not commit to approval
of the day-care center. A separate application for
conditional use review must be submitted and approved
before operation of such a facility is initiated. As
for the setback variance, it is not allowed in
conjunction with the site plan review process. The
applicant is asked to revise his plan to conform to the
appropriate setbacks in the zoning district.
E. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Approval of the site plan, subject to comments made.

F. SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE REVIEW
The applicant reported that the setback was requested
due to design limitations on the property because of
existing floodway. He stated plans to dedicate some of
this area to the City. Staff commented that the area
where the waiver was requested could be called a side
yard, then there would be no need for a variance. The
Committee passed this to the Commission subject to:
(1) Submission of a day-care center proposed for
conditional use review.
(2) Engineering comments regarding indication of
floodplain on the plat, discussions of driveway
entrance, in -lieu contribution toward the
construction of Rock Creek Parkway.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION:
Due to a request by the applicant, a motion was made and
passed for a 30-day deferral. The vote: 10 ayes, 0 noes
and 1 absent.
Additional Information (12-13-83): Due to development
problems with the original submission, a totally new plan
has been submitted for this month's review.

ANALYSIS:
No problems of significance were found. Engineering
comments remain as previously submitted. The proposed
day-care center will still require a conditional use permit,
so a proof of this plan does not represent an endorsement.
An added comment concerns the area specified as plat or
buffer. It is now necessary for us to obtain specific
information on how the area is to be treated. The applicant
is requested to supply this info.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the revised plan subject to comments made.
SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE REVIEW:
The new plan was reviewed by the Committee. The applicant
agreed that he would apply for a day-care conditional use
and that he would submit more evidence concerning the
composition of the buffer area.
