The proposed development closely follows the approved office building on the Miramont Self Storage PUD approved in 2001. The property is zoned Harmony Corridor (HC). Additional commercial offices are located to the north and west, Miramont Apartments are located adjacent to the east and Walmart Sam’s Club is located to the north east across South Boardwalk Drive. The HC district is intended for attractive and complete mixed-use area with a major employment base and the proposed use meets this criteria. The site is currently vacant with no existing trees or habitat however the site will be buffered from the adjacent storage facility with evergreen trees and shrubs. Access is from Oakridge Drive approximately 140 feet west of South Boardwalk Drive. Parking is proposed adjacent to the site with 22 spaces (1 ADA accessible). A trash and recycling enclosure is located at the south end of the parking lot to serve the tenants of this building. An existing detached public sidewalk exists that runs the full length of the property along East Boardwalk Drive. This walk is accessed by an ADA accessible ramp and re- connects to the existing detached public sidewalk at the south end of the property. The drainage report and plans prepared by Stantec in 2006 showed an onsite extended detention water quality pond. We propose re-positioning the pond to fit the new configuration of the building to maintain this natural drainage pattern. The drainage swale and associated landscaping along East Boardwalk Drive provide water quality treatment for the storm water before it leaves the site and enters the City’s storm water system. Plant beds will be landscaped with various drought tolerant species that are adapted to our local climate. Turf areas on the site have been minimized. Additionally drip irrigation will be used in all plant beds and high efficiency spray nozzles will be used in all proposed turf areas. The proposed building height will be 16’ and will not have automatic fire sprinklers. The Two spaces will be separated with fire rated construction and the individual units will be less than 5,000s.f. The architecture will be compatible with the adjacent neighborhood with regards to scale and massing. High quality materials will be used (stone, brick, stucco).The building is anticipated to employ 8-10 employees. Construction on the first phase to commence approximately on or around August 2016. Phase two date of construction to be determined. A preliminary design review was held 8/28/15 and responses are being submitted today. The project as designed meets all the performance standards in the HC District. The General Development Standards in Chapter 3 of the Land Use Code are also being met. City Plan Principles and Policies achieved by the project include the following: • Economic Health by maintaining a balanced mix of land uses to support fiscal sustainability.
