App 02-35P, Satellite Tool Company, request for site plan of development for a 10,000 square foot building on property located at 179 Commerce Way, I Zone
Chris Eseppi was present to represent the applicant. It is being proposed to construct a 10,000 square foot building adjacent to the existing Satellite Tool. The building fits within the perimeters of the regulations regarding frontage and setbacks. The parking is shown on the plans interconnected to the adjacent lot. The drainage is distributed out to the street. The landscaping is similar to the original building with the same colors.
Lipe read the Planning Report:
Request for site plan approval for a new 10,000 square foot industrial building on Commerce Way, I zone. Maximum impervious coverage allowed is 65%, 65% proposed. We are wondering whether the 65% proposed impervious coverage includes the reserve parking; if not, that needs to be addressed. Proposed building height is 30 feet; 40 feet allowed. Lot size is 37,000 sq ft; minimum lot size allowed is 20,000 sq ft. Frontage is 100 feet; minimum allowed is 100 ft. Front yard setback is 105 feet, 35 feet minimum allowed.
There is no outdoor storage area proposed.
The parking requirement for this facility is 19 spaces, 12 spaces are proposed with an additional 7 reserve spaces. This proposal includes interconnections between the new parking lot for this building and the parking lot for the existing adjacent site, as well as a walkway between the two buildings. One of the difficulties we have seen with small lots such as these is that frequently truck maneuvers are occurring in the street. The parking lot interconnection will benefit truck movements on both sites and should reduce use of the road as a maneuvering area. Cross-travel and access easements will need to be placed over the parking lots and driveways, and should be shown on the plot plan.
ADRC reviewed this plan on July 2 and requested that the applicant return with the following:
Isometric plan showing the lighting distribution
The landscaping on the architectural elevations must match the landscape plan; and
The landscape plan must be corrected to reflect the correct plantings and locations.
The only site lighting proposed is shielded wal-pak units on the building.
There is no new signage proposed at this time.
There are no regulated wetlands on this site. IWA/CC approved the site plan on July 10 with a $3,000 bond and a requirement that the applicant return to IWA/CC with E & S plans in the future if the reserve parking and retaining wall are to be constructed.
Public water and sewer will be provided. Water Pollution Control Authority approval is required.
There is one dumpsters proposed, on a concrete pad and screened.
If this application is approved, Planning Dept requests that a cross-travel easement for
Jeff Doolittle, Town Engineer, read the Engineering Report:
The proposed future parking in the northwest corner of the site has been moved away from the ravine in this corner. This parking should be graded to drain water away from the ravine, or additional drainage structures added to collect stormwater from this parking area and convey it to the drainage system in the road. Stormwater should not be allowed to run off any developed surfaces toward the northwest corner of this site to minimize further erosion of the ravine.
Show where the dumpster pad will be relocated when/if the future paved parking is constructed.
The rainleader pipes should be labeled with a minimum 0.5% slope.
