Mr. Smith moved, seconded by Mr. Gill, to approve the Final Plat for Northridge Plaza 1st Resubdivision. Inc. Craig Karn - Jensen Assoc. Mr. Reifman went into some detail on the commercial portion of the request. The maximum ISR of the site will be .75 and the maximum FAR will be .25, although .20 probably won't be achieved. The Conceptual site plan shows a 60,000 square foot commercial anchor and a 4,000 square foot building on an outparcel.
Parking is to be provided per the requirements of the zoning ordinance.
A 50-foot setback from Grand Avenue, identical in depth to that provided on the Stonebrook and Wells' parcels, will be maintained. The 60-foot rear yard setback will help provide a buffer between the commercial and proposed single family to the south. Mr. Kendig stated that the Comp Plan designation for this site is residential. However, the site is not desirable for residential development because of the zoning to the east the commercial uses to the west and its frontage on Grand Avenue. In addition, the Comp Plan did not recognize that the site is currently used for commercial purposes.
