Questions for applicant by the Committee:
Q: Topography of the site is flat and then rises?
A: Yes, 5ft rise from top of parcel that slopes downward moving east.
C: Sign Board will unlikely allow this development to stray away from the city’s sign
ordinance.
C: Suggestion: Move building footprint east and remove parking along S.H. 114.
Our goal is to place parking lot behind the proposed building.
A: We can look into moving parking behind the building; however, it may be difficult.
C: The challenge for this site is to be creative regarding the parking. You will run into
some resistance from City Council for placing linear parking along S.H. 114.
C: Regarding an older proposal for this site, we remember many citizens on Shady
Oaks coming out in force because they were concerned about increasing traffic in
their community.
Q: Any outreach to surrounding neighbors?
A: Not quite yet. We are looking for feedback as of now.
KB: Issues with this site - parking and adjacency to Shady Oaks. Need to improve
intersection because of narrow cross section.
DK: Can request variance to the driveway ordinance for Shady Oaks Dr.
Q: Floodplain, where does that drainage travel?
A: Not sure about detention yet, need to look into civil engineering. Drains towards
dove road
Q: Do you have a variance for residential adjacency?
A: No; however, we will ask for one.

C: Challenges for this site include parking and adjacency to residential. Rethink
some significant variances. This site is located in a rural part of town; therefore,
there is decreased traffic through the area. Suggest you begin talking with
surrounding neighbors. Development may require a super majority (6-1) at City
Council.
C: By pushing the building footprint forward, this would lessen the 4:1 ratio. Be sure
to address the 2035 Comprehensive Plan by relocating parking behind the major
structure. As always, actively engage in tree preservation.
C: Building looks great, challenges on site.
C: Anticipate comments about access to Shady Oaks.
Q: Is the driveway along S.H. 114 sufficient for fire access?
A: We’ll talk to fire about emergency access requirements.
