New Phase Construction
LDC 2.20.1.B(1) - Minor Site Plan
CODE states A Minor Site Plan shall be submitted for review and approval prior to the issuance of a Building Permit or prior to the construction of site improvements when proposed improvements are in compliance with all of the following thresholds: (1) Collectively, all existing and proposed impervious ground coverage does not exceed 35 percent of the gross site area or 9,000 square feet, whichever is less.
APPLICANT requests waiver due to a 65-foot by 24-foot (1,560 square feet), 200 square feet of concrete, and an old storage building 40-foot by 20-foot (800 square feet) have been removed (earlier demo permits). The building we are installing is 2,000 square feet plus 240 square feet of driveway we are installing has decreased the impervious area by 320 square feet.
LDC 6.8.6 - Buffers
CODE states It is the intent of this section to eliminate or reduce the negative impacts of the adjacent uses upon each other such that the long-term continuance of either use is not threatened by such impacts and the uses may be considered compatible.
APPLICANT requests waiver to maintain the existing buffers on the East, West, and South sides of the property, this includes 8-foot tall Ligustrums and assorted other trees. On the North side of the property (NE 35th Street) we will maintain the existing plants and add 5 ornamental trees per Susan Heyen in Parks and Recreation as there are already 7 full grown shade trees and other plants in place on the north side. The South and West side of the new building will have no doors or windows. These walls will act as a wall for additional buffer. Existing irrigation is still in place.
