Rebecca,
I received your application for the minor amendment for 801 S. Shields. There are a few items
that still need to be addressed. Please re -submit plans that incorporate the following:
1) 40% of the total number of parking spaces you must provide can be compact spaces. If you
designate your parallel parking spaces as "compact", then their dimension must be at least
7.5'xl9'. If the parallel parking spots are not considered compact, they need to be at least
8'x23'. If your parking requirement is 20 spaces (as we had previously discussed), a
maximum of 8 spaces can be "compact." Please specify on your site plan which of the spaces
you are considering "compact."
2) We need a narrative describing how many residents and supervisors, number of employees at
any one shift, type of group home, and whether residents can have cars. I know the answers
to these questions, but we need written documentation from you clarifying these things for
the various departments to review.
3) A 5' lot line landscaping strip is required unless it is a lot line between uses with "collective
parking." The 5 foot landscape strip cannot be waived along the west property line, however
if you are sharing parking spaces with the parking lot to the south, the lot line would be
considered between "collective parking" areas, which would eliminate the requirement for
the 5 foot landscaping strip along the southern property boundary. We need a letter signed by
the property owner of that parking lot to the south that specifies the number of spaces you
will be allowed to use as your overflow parking.
4) Your drive aisle widths as shown do not meet LUC standards. Please refer to Table A and B
in section 3.2.2(L) of the LUC for clarification.
5) It appears that you do not have enough space, given the code requirements, to have double
loaded parallel parking along the drive aisle on the west. You do, however, have enough
space in the western area for single loaded parallel parking while still including the required
5' landscape strip.
6) It appears that you do not have enough space, given the code requirements, to have double
loaded perpendicular with parallel parking on the drive aisle on the south. You do, however,
have enough space for a double loaded drive aisle on the south side if you have 30 degree
diagonal and parallel parking.
