shared curb cut between this site .and the adjacent Taco Cabana restaurant
along Live Oak Street.
A Project Review Committee meeting was held Wednesday, February 23, 1994 to discuss
the above mentioned parking lot plan. City Engineer David Pullen moved to approve
the site plan with the following conditions:
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL:
_ Provide a location for two electrical .transformers in the existing 20' public utility
easement .located between .Taco .Cabana and the 707 Shopping Center near the
existing dumpster. Screening of the transformers is recommended by staff.
_ Provide a 10' public utility easement to cover the electrical service to the building.

_ Revise the parking legend to include the number of parking spaces on the Taco
Cabana site existing and proposed. Since the Taco Cabana site is non-
conforming in terms of the number of parking spaces available, at a minimum,
the Taco Cabana site cannot lose any parking spaces.
Since shared access is provided on this site plan alternative, an additional fire
hydrant is not .required; however, the .curbs must be painted -red to discourage
parking in these areas.
_ Provide water demands .and sanitary sewer loadings on the site plan.
The entire site must comply with the. Stormwater Management Policy.
_ Verify that .the original final .plat of the subject property did not make any
provisions or designation or a single building plot for the purposes of access and
signage.
_ The small parking island located in the southeast corner of the site closest to the
building near parking. spaces 29, 30 and 39 and 40, will be allowed to be less
than the required 360 square feet because it ties into a planted area with the
condition that,the surface between the parking spaces is decorative pavers instead
of vegetation.
_ Staff recommended that the applicant file an as built amending plat dedicating all
necessary easements for access and public utilities once construction is complete.
_ Provide a 12 x 20 enclosed "roll-off dumpster service" area and proposed
screening on the .subject property regardless if a dumpster is shared with the
adjacent Taco Cabana site. If ':the :grease tank is to be included in this area,
additional square footage will be required and screened accordingly. If the
dumpster service is shared with Taco Cabana, the angle of the area must be
.approximately the same angle as the adjacent parking spaces for access and the
dumpster must be screened in accordance with current ordinance requirements.
If the angle of the dumpster is changed such that the dumpster is not visible from-
Texas Avenue, .gates may not be required.
_ .The proposed dumpster .location on the City Slickers site cannot be counted
toward the parking requirements.
Staff Planner Kuenzel seconded the motion .which passed unopposed (3 - 0). City
Engineer Pullen moved to determine that this site which includes a shared access drive
with Taco Cabana along Live Oak Street is preferred. over. the previous site plan that
does .not allow for shared access, case #94-401.. Staff Planner Kuenzel seconded the
motion which passed unopposed {3 - 0). The. following comments were made by the
