Knight, Re: S-8314. BDI 4th LSNRD Commission Planne� AdditionandS-8317 Millard Warehouse Revised plans have been submitted regarding both of the above items. Also, the applicant has submitted verification of authorization to access directly onto Highway 6 for Lots 1 and 2 of BDI 4th Addition. Therefore, the issue of access has been changed to one of design, rather than where it should be provided. The following is a delineation of the remaining issues as they relate to each development. S-8314. The five deficiencies and discrepancies listed in the staff report have been corrected in the revised plans and with the submittal of legal papers. However, given the existence of an approved access point, staff has altered their position regarding the continuation of the 50 foot access easement through Lot 2. Staff would prefer that this access point not be continued to avoid the creation of a through drive from Heinz Road to the new access point. The access point is aligned with the access for Bon Aire Mobile Home Park to the south. It will have the property line between Lots 1 and 2 centered on it, therefore, a common driveway easement will be required. Also, staff is concerned about the design of the driveway. That portion in the Highway 6 right of way is the responsibility of BDI and, therefore, attaches to the subdivision. Staff recommends that the following alterations be made to that portion of the driveway located in the right of way. First, the pavement width should be increased to a 37 foot width to provide for three stacking lanes. Second, at a minimum, the turning radiuses at the intersection of the driveway with Highway 6 should be increased (i.e. 85 foot radius) to permit the turning movement of the trucks to occur without interrupting the flow of traffic in the eastbound lane of Highway 6. A more preferable design would be to install acceleration and deacceleration lanes along with a left turn lane. This would permit the smoothest flow of traffic. Staff, therefore, recommends that an agreement be obtained from the applicants to permit the installation of these facilities upon the development of Lot 2 of BDI 4th Addition. 5-8317. The seven deficiencies and discrepancies listed in the staff report have been corrected with the revised plans. The only remaining issue is one of design in regard to the proposed driveway. Staff has recommended to the applicant that several changes be made to ensure adequate access for both Lots 1 and 2 of BDI 4th Addition in the future. Design considerations which have been recommended are as follows. First, an increase in the pavement width to 37 feet. Second, ar //(19/ K� MICROFILMED BY :JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS DES'MOINES r r 5 � 2 extension of the driveway further to the north prior to turning into Lot 1. In summary, the only remaining issue is that of the proper design of the new access point. Because this is primarily a technical question, staff recommends that both of the above named items be approved subject to redesign of the access point in compliance with the specifications provided by the Engineering Division. In addition, the applicants should be required to submit a common driveway easement agreement including an agreement that Lot 2 will access only at this point and an agreement regarding the future improvements of the new intersection being created (e.g. acceleration and deacceleration lanes and a left turning lane). bc4/12 MICROFILMED BY �JORM MICROLAB ' CEDAR 'RAP1DS•DES•MDIWES r _- -_...._....

The topography is relatively flat. rr ill MIC RDFILMED BY "JORM MICROLAB I _.,�CEDAR RAPIDS•DES�MUINES 1 ANALYSIS 2 The applicant is requesting approval of the final plat of BDI Fourth Addition to Iowa City, Iowa, which is a replat of Lot I of BDI 's First Addition approved in 1976. A preliminary plat of this subdivision has not been submitted. It will be necessary for the appplicant either to meet the requirements of the preliminary platting process, or request that they be waived. Because this subdivision represents the replatting of an existing lot for which a preliminary plat was previously submitted, staff would not object to a waiver of the necessary preliminary platting requirements. BDI First Addition is a four lot subdivision, with Lots 2, 3 and 4 lying between the property in question and Heinz Road, Because Highway 6 is a limited access facility, and because Lot I was platted without frontage on Heinz Road, a 50 foot easement was required for the purpose of permitting a frontage road to provide access from Heinz Road to Lot I. Because the replatting of Lot 1 will split off the western half of the lot, direct access to Highway 6 would be required for the new Lot 1. This would require authorization by both ]DOT and the City. City staff would be very concerned about permitting any direct access and would recommend that the access easement be continued on through the new Lot 2 of BDI Fourth Addition to provide access for the new Lot I to Heinz Road. An easement agreement should be submitted with the legal papers for this subdivision. Also, because BDI First Addition was platted prior to the adoption of the stormwater management ordinance, the replat of Lot I will be required to comply at this time. The easement location and the detention calculations will be required before the plat is approved. STAFF RECOMMENDATION ` Staff recommends that the final plat of BDI Fourth Addition be deferred. Upon resolution of the above concerns, and the deficiencies and discrepancies listed below, staff would recommend approval. i DEFICIENCIES AND DISCREPANCIES I. A signature block should be provided for Hawkeye CableVision. 2. Stormwater management calculations should be submitted for review. 3. The acreage shown on the plat appears to be incorrect. 4. A continuation of the 50 foot access easement should be shown through Lot 2. 5. Legal papers have not yet been submitted for review.

Access for the development is proposed via Highway 6. Because this is a limited access facility, authorization for that access must be obtained from the Iowa Department of Transportation and the City of Iowa City. When the final plat of BDI First Addition was approved in 1976, an easement for the provision of a frontage road was required from Heinz Road to Lot 1. The applicant has indicated that access is permitted directly from Lot 1 to Highway 6 via an existing access point approved in 1970. The applicant is proposing to use this access. Verification of the authorization to use this access should be provided by the applicant. Because Highway 6 is a limited access facility, staff is concerned about use of this access point to service a proposed warehouse. Therefore, in conjunction with Lot 1 of BDI First Addition being replatted into Lots 1 and 2 of BDI Fourth Addition, staff has recommended that the access easement required previously be continued through Lot 2 to provide access to Lot 1. This would permit the proposed new warehouse to access directly to Heinz Road rather than Highway 6. The LSNRD review provisions require that parking facilities be shown, iThe ncluding areas for public and private parking and their approximate capacity. and does not proposed de ineatteNRD pthe indiv d allan, as tpar�ki shgows spaces being p areas for parking to determine compliance of the proposed parking areas with the newly adopted g provided. In order off-street parking design standards, all parking spaces must be shown on the Plan including dimensions of the spaces, and the aisles from which they are accessed. In addition, all parking areas will be required to comply with provisions of the Iowa City tree ordinance. Although trees are currently shown on the proposed LSNRD plan, each tree should be labeled as a large or small sized tree and a note should be added to the plan that all trees shall be of a species included on the "list of recommended trees for Iowa City" or permitted by the City Forester. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the preliminary and final LSNRD plan for Millard Warehouse, Inc. be deferred. Upon resolution of the concerns noted above, and the deficiencies and discrepancies listed below, staff would recommend approval. �4 !
