An interior island's is required for every 15 parking spaces. The parking lot that is located in portion of lot 4 will need four interior islands. 2. The row of 15 parking spaces that are located adjacent to the Jamison car wash cannot overhang the property line. These spaces will be required to be backed up by two feet. By backing these spaces up by two feet, this will take the drive isle down to 21 feet. The required drive isle for 90 degree parking is 23 feet. The parking lot on portion of lot 4 may need to be pushed back toward the back property line for this layout to work. 3. The parallel parking spaces will need a 180 square foot end island located at both ends of the parking row. 4. A shopping center less than 75,000 square feet parking requirement is required. Parking legend should reflect as follows: • Parking Required total square footage 32,425 divided by 150 = 217 Currently the site plan is only reflecting 176. This does not meet the parking requirements. Please be aware that office and warehouse cannot be separated out. Staff is willing to work with the developer on Building Permits and CO's. From this day forward this site is being considered at a shopping center parking ratio (total square footage is divided by 150). To date there is currently 15,209 square feet occupied which requires 102 parking spaces. This leaves 16 parking spaces available. This leaves 2000 square feet that would be allowed a building permit at this time. Essentially 118 parking spaces will support 17,609 square feet to be occupied. 5. FYI: A buffer is not required between commercial and commercial. 6. FYI: The landscape legend for symbols reflects Crepe Myrtle, however there are no Crepe Myrtles being proposed. 7. An irrigation plan has not been turned in for any of this phase. We will need this As Soon As Possible. The irrigation plan should have been approved prior to any CO's for this site. Future CO's will not be approved until this has been submitted and approved. 8. Please be aware of any parking lot lighting that may go in.
