LEMAY AND PENNOCK P.U.D.
STATEMENT OF PLANNING OBJECTIVES
The P.U.D. is a neighborhood service center containing two (2) food service
establishments located in the 800 block of Lemay Avenue. The project will utilize the
same access point to Lemay as the Neighborhood Shopping Center to the west and
be designed to accommodate future access to the north and the east. Directly south
of the P.U.D. is an existing restaurant, and it will be functionally incorporated into our
design. The landscaping will accommodate two large, existing trees at the entrance to
the site and be designed to enhance the streetscape with a combination of shade
trees and shrubs to screen the parking areas while allowing good visual access to the
development: The internal traffic system will be predominately one way, reducing the
amount of pedestrian/vehicular conflicts. Parking for the approximately twenty (20)
employees will be on the east end of the parking lot. Included within the P.U.D. is a
park/detention area, that is designed as a wetland and potential outdoor dining area
and will be privately owned and maintained.
The initial phase of the project will be the northern site and park area. And it
will accommodate a Boston Chicken Restaurant and drive up facility. The second
phase is designed to accommodate a future restaurant that will be designed to
harmonize with the design of the initial phase, and will be submitted as a subsequent
P.U.D.
It would appear that our Neighborhood Shopping Center will be well suited to
provide needed services to medical community to the east and south of the site as
well as the east side neighborhood to the west. The location on Major Bicycle and
Mass Transit Routes will provide easy access. We protect a new traffic control at the
entry to the site, as has been projected in the last 2 traffic studies presented to the
city. This new control will provide for a superior traffic situation at what is presently a
very difficult intersection
The project is in keeping with the land use policies of the city in several specific
