HomeMy WebLinkAboutMinutes PC 04-16-19 Brad: What is the min and max building setback of the US421 Overlay? Jeshua Short: The min is 30' with the max being 120'. We are proposing 75'. Rachel: That's correct. Brad: What is the setback for the Bank of America? I don't want a zig zag effect as you move from building to building. I want this to be aligned with Mr. Farb's strip mall. IRachel: Bank of America is at 110'. This building will be slightly in front of the Bank of America building to the south. The next building development proposal north of Bank of America will be 90'. Alan: Do they do welding work? Jeshua Short: No. Alan: Do they repair large trucks? Jeshua Short: One bay is designed for larger vehicles, like trucks larger than an F-150. No commercial vehicles. Alan: Will there be any work done outside? Jeshua Short: No. All work is done inside the building. Alan: How many bays are there? Jeshua Short: 9 bays; 8 of the same size, and 1 bay for larger vehicles. Alan: Will there be enough space inside the facility to store cars overnight? I'm concern by this since there are no lights in the parking lot. This could be an issue with car break-ins. Is this a concern for the police to know of? Rachel: The building will have lighting all around the building that projects out towards the parking lot.
