All parking surfaces must be paved and the lot must meet the minimum requirements for curbing and drainage. The site plan as presented does not sufficiently address this point. A development permit is required before development of the property. See the Engineering division for details. 2. Sight distances at the alley on Montclair will be reviewed by the traffic engineer. Removal of s.ome trees may be required. This action is necessary to accommodate the increased traffic flow in the alley. uNo ParkingU restrictions may be required along Montclair in front of #200 if not currently existing. 3. The safe traffic flow from the alley may be impacted by park ing adj acen t t.o Rother's. ~Yl1~1~g: Multiple requirements, including number and location of exi ts, fire walls for proper separat ion, upgrading electJr.ical wiring, as well as possible other items will have to beaddr.essed prior to issuance of a building permit to change the use of this structure from a single family residence to that of a fraternity, or apartment house. Coordinate with the Building division for specific code requirements and procedures for requesting variances to certain requirements. g!!~QTR!Q4!!: Service to this structure will come from the north side. There maybe .limited voltage available in that area. Furnish load data requirements to the Electrical division as soon as possible so service requirements can be determined. I!HE: If a building permit is required for conversion of this structure from a single family residence to a multi-family structure, a fire hydrant will be required to be within 300 feet of every part of the building, as the hose lays. Coordinate information and requirements with the Fire Marshal's office. The alley may have to be designated as a tfFire Lane" with no parking if it is determined that emergency vehicles would have trouble gaining access through the alley or to the buildings along the alley due to excessive parking of tenant/customer vehicles. A study is being conducted at this time. ~Q1!~ ~~~1'E: A dumpster location is not shown on the site plan supplied. Coordinate with Jim Smith regarding dumpster requirements. ~~~ Rg~R~~~NT~T!YE.~: Offered questions regarding paving, landscaping, number of parking spaces, and how appeals to requirements can be made. Mrs. Kee read the report from the Engineering division, and added the following information: Islands in the parking lot are required by ordinance. Variances to this requirement or" to the number of parking spaces can be requested to the Zoning Board of Adjustment. The letter from Mr. Loupot granting ingress and egress to the parking, or for parking itself is not adequate because Mr. Loupot does not have the authority to grant those privileges according to the lease agreement he has with the landowner. If the lot is used for any type of parking a Conditional Use Permit t"lith Site Plan approval must be granted by the Planning and Zoning Commission. At this time, there is no authority for using the property for a parkinglot~ Furnish caliper sizes of existing trees on the site which are to be used to meet landscaping requirements. ~~IIR .~ ~1~gH: The existing water lines serving this structure are probably 3/4tt in size. If a larger service is required the entire cost of replacement is the responsibility of the applicant. The water line across the street is probably large enough to handle a fire hydrant. If a hydrant is required, plans and profiles must be designed by a Civil Engineer, and will be subject to approval of the City Engineer. P.R.C.

RE: Sight~DistanceRequirements Alley'Between Montclair and Highlands (Adjacent to the Rear of Rother's Book store) I have reviewed the sight-distance available for drivers leaving the alley behind Rother's BookStore using our current sight- distance pol icy (attached) 6 To. insure adequate sight distance at thIs location 3 head-in angle parking spaces fronting Montc~lair Ave.nue should be removed to improve visibility looking left. In addition, two pine trees and 120' of parallel parking adjacent to 200 Montclair should be removed to improve sight-distance looking ri(ght from this drive as shown on the attached schematic. An alternative to these prohibitioI1S is mak ing the alley one-way west-bound between Montclair and Highlands street. This would allow Rother's. BookStore to continue to fully utilize the pa,rking adjacent to their building and would not impact paI~'king' il1front of 200 Montclairo However, parking prohibitions fronting 201 Highlands would be necessary to insure adequate sight- distance for alley traffic looking left. Parking looking right from the alley at Highlands street is adequate because several driveways preclude any parking between the alley and Jersey street. ,p' ! .~ f f.
