Staff: code limits parking and buffers at 5590 West 25th; lot size determines allowable spaces
Summary
Planning staff told the board the unified development ordinance requires parking, buffering, and design standards that depend on the specific zoning use; staff said the code calculation yields six spaces for the site under the uses discussed.
Planning staff told the board that the unified development ordinance requires parking, buffering and design standards tied to the use category and that those standards matter for the petition at 5590 West 25th.
Staff explained that because the site includes an existing concrete pad, that impervious area factors into lot-coverage calculations and reduces allowable new building area. "So regardless of how many, he say our code will give him 6," the staff member said, summarizing the numerical outcome of the parking-calculation example (two employee spaces plus at least three vehicle spaces for repair/trucking use).
Board members urged the applicant to consult the unified development ordinance and submit plans that conform to the ordinance's design standards so staff can reassess compliance ahead of the continued hearing.
