ZONING
Jonathan Cady | Jonathan.Cady@copbfl.com
Status: Resubmittal Required
1. Please provide a comment response sheet with a narrative response addressing all comments received in this DRC review. The response should be organized in a point-by-point format, referencing each comment and explaining how it has been addressed or revised in the resubmittal. (Info Only).
2. Per Section 155.5602.C.7.a., at least 30 percent of the street-facing facade area of the ground-level floor of buildings (as measured from the grade to the underside of the eave, top of the parapet, or the story line denoting the second floor) shall be occupied by windows or doorways. Please update the elevation drawings to clearly demonstrate how the proposed design complies with this regulation. Be sure to indicate the specific features or dimensions that show how the requirement is being met.
• The applicant is currently requesting approval of a superior design alternative at the Architectural Appearance Committee (AAC). Please note that if the proposed design is denied at AAC, you may be required to reapply through the Development Review Committee (DRC) process, especially if the denial results in substantial design revisions. (Condition).
3. Per Section 155.5509, In all new development, as well as redevelopment that increases gross floor area by 50 percent or more, all overhead utilities located on the development site and/or along the public right-of-way fronting the development site shall be placed underground to the maximum extent practicable-provided that the Development Services Director shall waive this requirement where the relevant utility company demonstrates that undergrounding will be detrimental to the overall safety and/or reliability of the circuit. Note on all plans that all overhead utilities located on the development site and/or along the public right-of-way fronting the development site shall be placed underground to the maximum extent practicable. Provide evidence and note on plans and in narrative that all overhead utilities will be buried for this project as per 155.5509. (Condition).
4. The site data table should include the Lot Coverage and Impervious/Pervious calculation. Please note that the canopy area should be included within the lot coverage.
• Comment not addressed. The calculations for impervious and pervious surface areas have not been provided, and the required breakdown of calculations is still missing. Please clearly show both the square footage and the percentage of impervious and pervious areas to confirm compliance. Currently, it is unclear whether the site meets the required standards, as the necessary information has not been provided. This should be clearly displayed on the site plan and should break down how the impervious and pervious surface area calculations were determined.
5. Please confirm whether the wall along NW 1st Street is located on the property line. The wall is required to be placed in the middle of the landscape buffer, not along the edge. If the wall is currently located directly on the property line, it will need to be relocated to comply with this requirement.
• We received the CPTED Waiver Request Letter and will continue to evaluate as the site plan evolves through review. This comment will be resolved once there are no additional changes to the site plan and the CPTED Waiver Request is approved.
6. Please note per section 155.5602.C.7.b., that all ground-level windows on street-facing facades shall be transparent. Mirrored or heavily-tinted glass that prevents views into the building is prohibited on street-facing front building facades. (Info Only).
7. Please note that the front of the property is along NW 30th Avenue; therefore, when showing setback dimension on the plan, ensure that the setback demonstrates the correct layout of the plan. (Info Only).
8. Please note that if this project proposes a security wall that includes lights, Wall packs on buildings may be used at entrances to a building to light unsafe areas, pursuant to Section 155.5401.I. They are not intended to draw attention to the building or provide general building or site lighting. Wall packs on the exterior of the building shall be fully shielded (e.g., with true cut-off type bulb or light source not visible from off-site) to direct the light vertically downward and have a light output of 900 lumens or less. Provide a detailed sheet that is fully shielded. (Info Only).
9. Please note that the proposed signs, although included with this submittal, would not be concurrently approved with this Minor Site Plan if approved and will need a separate building permit approval. (Info Only).
10. Please note that additional comments may be provided based on your next submittal, especially if revisions reveal items that were not previously reviewed or addressed. (Info Only).
11. Please note that once the vacant lot to the right of the subject property is developed, the entry gates on the subject property must be removed to comply with the existing cross-access easement. This requirement ensures unobstructed shared access between properties, as intended by the easement agreement. Be sure to account for this condition in the project planning and coordination moving forward. (Info Only).
12. Based on the submitted plans and the way the site is currently laid out, the circulation does not appear to be functional, particularly in relation to entering and exiting the lot, exiting the car wash, and simultaneously using the cross-access easement to the east. The proposed layout raises concerns about how vehicles will navigate the site, especially during peak use. For example, if all three vacuum spaces are occupied, it is unclear how a vehicle exiting the car wash would be able to exit the site safely and efficiently without obstruction. This situation could lead to traffic congestion or operational challenges on-site. Please clarify the proposed circulation pattern and how vehicle flow is intended to function under typical and peak conditions. If necessary, revise the site plan to improve circulation and address these concerns, ensuring that vehicles can move safely and efficiently throughout the site without interference from bottlenecks or blocked access points.
• Comment not addressed. The response provided does not offer sufficient justification to resolve the comment. Please clarify how site circulation will function. Staff has concerns regarding potential traffic backup caused by vehicles exiting the car wash, the need for cars to circulate around the site to reach the single exit, and additional traffic that will be generated once the vacant parcel to the east is developed. Please provide a detailed explanation to demonstrate that circulation will operate safely and efficiently.
13. Please provide a fence and wall detail sheet that clearly illustrates the height, material, and design of the proposed fencing and walls. From the submitted plans, it appears that a chain link fence may be proposed. Please note that, per code, chain link fences are prohibited along arterial or collector streets. Therefore, if you are proposing a chain link fence along any frontage that abuts such a roadway, an alternative material will be required. The detail sheet should include the type of material, height, finishes, and any other relevant specifications. This will ensure that the proposed fencing complies with the City's development standards and can be accurately reviewed.
• Although the proposed wall detail has been provided, please also include a detail for the proposed fence. The site plan indicates both a 6'-0" precast concrete site wall and a fence, so a separate fence detail sheet is required. This should include measurements of height, material, and other relevant details. Additionally, according to the legend, the wall is 6 feet high, but the wall detail states it is 8 feet high. Correct this to show consistency.
14. Provide the mounting height of the proposed light poles. The maximum height for lighting fixtures within 200 feet of a residential zoning district (the north property line) is 20. For all other fixtures outside of this 200 distance, the maximum height is 30 (155.5401.D).
• Comment not addressed. Stating “Project complies with these requirements” does not resolve the previous comment. It remains unclear where revisions were made, and the height of the proposed light pole is still not identified. The diagram indicates to “see schedule for height,” but the schedule does not list the height. Please update the plans to clearly show the light pole height and identify the revisions made.
15. Provide a narrative that outlines how this project will achieve 12 sustainable development points, as referred to in section 155.5802.
• Comment not addressed. The response stating “See revised sheets” does not resolve the previous requirement. Please provide a written narrative outlining how the project will achieve the required 12 Sustainable Development Points, in accordance with Section 155.5802. The narrative should clearly identify each selected sustainability measure and explain how the project complies. This should be a separate document.
16. A utility easement agreement form must be submitted at time of building permit for the pavement located within the utility easements on the east, west, and southern parts of the property (unless vacated). If these easements are vacated provide evidence of this.
• A Cross Access easement agreement form must be submitted at time of building permit for the pavement located within the utility easements on the east, west, and southern parts of the property (unless vacated). In your response to this comment, please provide clarification of how you intend to resolve this comment.
17. Light poles must be at least 15 from any existing or proposed trees per section 155.5203.B.2.g.i.c. Provide the 15 radius for all light poles.
• Please show the location of all light poles on the planting plan to confirm compliance with landscape and lighting regulations. Additionally, provide the required 15-foot radius around each light pole directly on the planting plan. This will ensure there are no conflicts between proposed landscaping and the light poles.
18. Please note that all signage will be reviewed as a separate permit and is not part of the site plan approval process. (Info Only).
19. Per Section 155.4219.H.3., A car wash or auto detailing use shall comply with the following standards:
• a. The use shall be designed to ensure proper functioning of the site as related to vehicle stacking, circulation, and turning movements.
• b. No overhead doors shall face the front lot line.
• c. Each lane shall be covered with a permanent canopy which shall have a maximum clearance height of 14 feet above grade, except where state or federal law requires a higher clearance.
• d. Outdoor activity may occur during business hours; such activity shall be limited to the washing, drying and other superficial detailing of the interior/exterior of the vehicles in accordance with an approved site plan.
• e. Screening of this use shall meet the general requirements of Section 155.4219.A. Standards Applicable to Motor Vehicle Sales, Service, and Storage Uses.
• f. A drive-through that is incorporated as an essential function of the operation shall be permitted by right as accessory to the principal business. Therefore, this use shall not be subject to the accessory use standards for Drive-Through Services within Code Section 155.4303.I. (Condition).
PLEASE NOTE: Applications that require resubmission to the DRC have 45 days from the time of original DRC meeting in which to resubmit. Applications that fail to be resubmitted before the completion of these 45 days, or fail to receive a time extension from the Development Services Director, shall be considered withdrawn (§155.2304.B).
