Legal Description

LEGAL DESCRIPTION. Please submit an electronic copy of the legal description. Microsoft Word document or selectable text PDF are the preferred file formats. The legal description can be emailed to the planner's email address above.

APPLICATION. Provide a completed and signed preliminary development plan application form and a completed and signed ownership affidavit for said application.

APPLICATION FEE. The $2,505 application fee has yet to be paid. The application shall not undergo further review until such time as the fee has been paid.

FLOODPLAIN. Add a note to the plans regarding the site's location relative to the 100-year floodplain. Cite the FIRM panel number and date used to make the determination.

OIL AND GAS WELLS. Add a note to the plans regarding the presence of any active, inactive or capped oil and gas wells on the subject site. Cite the source of information used to make this determination. The MoDNR website maintains a database of wells in the state that may be referenced.

EASEMENTS. Label and dimension the existing 30' water easement that runs along the west and southwest property line.

BUILDING LINES. The plat of record shows that a 20' building setback line was dedicated parallel to the east, west and south property lines. Said building lines are shown and dimensioned on the plans. However, there is an additional 50' building setback line that is labeled and dimensioned parallel to the same previously mentioned property lines on all of the plan sheets. The City has no such record of an existing platted 50' building line on the subject, nor is a 50' setback line required under the existing PI zoning district standards. Remove the 50' building setback line.

PROPERTY LINE INFORMATION. Label the dimensions and bearings for all property lines.

SIDEWALKS. No sidewalks were required along the SE Thompson Dr and SE Decker St frontages at the time the subject property was platted. Current development standards require the construction of 5' sidewalks along industrial streets. Had the development of the subject property only moved forward through the administrative final development plan process, staff could not require the construction of sidewalks along either industrial street because it was platted with no requirement for sidewalks. However, the preliminary development plan application process that is being pursued with public hearings before the Planning Commission and City Council opens the opportunity for staff to recommend the construction of sidewalks as a condition of approval for the proposed development plan. Staff will make such recommendation based on current development standards and in furtherance of the City's Comprehensive Plan goal to expand the city's sidewalk network, inclusive of industrial areas.

PARKING LOT DESIGN. The minimum drive aisle width for parking areas with 90-degree parking is 24' (excluding curb and gutter) whether the parking area serves one-way or two-way traffic. The parking/vacuum area does not meet the minimum 24' drive aisle width. Parking areas using monolithic concrete construction whereby the curb is integral to the pavement can measure the require width from face of curb to face of curb.

BUILDING. Label the building dimensions.

ADA PARKING AND ROUTE. - A sign shall be mounted at the head of the accessible space identifying it as such. Said sign shall be mounted a minimum 5' above grade, measured to the bottom of the sign. - The site plan shows the accessible route crossing the tunnel entrance/exit lane to reach man-door areas on both ends of the building. The plan does not appear to show ramps being provided to allow for an accessible route crossing of the entrance/exit lane.

PHOTOMETRIC PLAN. - Show the location of all parking lot light poles and wall-mounted light fixtures on the site plan and building elevations as applicable. - Submit a photometric plan in accordance with the requirements of UDO Section 8.230. All fixtures shall comply with the standards under UDO Sections 8.220, 8.250, 8.260 and 8.270. - Provide manufacturer specifications for all proposed exterior light fixtures.

SITE DATA TABLE. Add the impervious coverage in sq. ft. and expressed as a percentage of the site.

PARKING LOT SCREENING. Screening to a height of 2.5' shall be provided along the entire edge of the drive aisle that runs along southwest and south property line. Only portions of said aisle are shown to be screened from view. UDO Section 8.820.C provides four (4) design options to satisfy the screening requirement.

SIGNAGE. The City's sign ordinance allows a maximum of two (2) wall signs by right for any building located in the PI (Planned Industrial) zoning district. The elevations appear to show a total of six (6) signs. Staff can support no more than four (4) attached wall signs based on previous recommendations for similarly car wash facilities.

EXTERIOR BUILDING MATERIALS. Provide manufacturer specifications for all proposed polycarbonate material, ACM panels and ribbed metal panels.

CIRCULATION PLAN. - Provide a plan clearly identifying the site's circulation pattern, proposed pavement markings and signage used to manage said circulation pattern. - Will the parking/vacuum area be a one-way exit-only area, or is it intended to allow two-way traffic? - "Exit Only/Do Not Enter" signs shall be posted where the by-pass lane intersects with the Decker St driveway entrance, as well as the exit of the parking/vacuum area if intended for one-way exiting traffic only. - Provide pavement markings and signage to help clearly manage the two-way traffic entering the site and exiting the parking/vacuum area.

Code Statement

DE C&O #01 Eng Plans – FDP/PDP

All required engineering plans and studies, including water lines, sanitary sewers, storm drainage, streets and erosion and sediment control shall be submitted along with the final development plan. All public infrastructure must be substantially complete, prior to the issuance of any certificates of occupancy.

DE C&O #03 Eng & Insp Fees

All Engineering Plan Review and Inspection Fees shall be paid prior to approval of the associated engineering plans and prior to the issuance of any site development permits or the start of construction (excluding land disturbance permit).

DE C&O #09 FDP Reviews

Certain aspects of the development plan will be further reviewed during the Final Development Plan phase of the project. This includes detailed aspects of the design to help ensure that the plan meets the design criteria and specifications contained in the Design and Construction Manual.

DE C&O #11 Pavement Thickness

Private parking lots shall follow Article 8 of the Unified Development Ordinance for pavement thickness and base requirements.

DE C&O #12 Cut & Fill

Any cut and / or fill operations, which cause public infrastructure to exceed the maximum / minimum depths of cover shall be mitigated by relocating the infrastructure vertically and / or horizontally to meet the specifications contained within the City’s Design and Construction Manual.

DE Future Repair Work

Please be aware that any future repair work to public infrastructure (e.g., water main repair, sanitary sewer repair, storm sewer repair, etc.) within public easements will not necessarily include the repair of pavement, curbing, landscaping, or other private improvements which are located within the easement.
