A Detail Site Plan and Final Plat for 308,00)-square feet of speculative office/warehouse on the southwestern lot were als ~ approved at that time. The building has since been constructed and is occupied b Somera Communications. In October 2002, Council approved PD-194R, to allo~v a Detail Site Plan and Replat for the Staples 228,250-sq.-fi. office/warehouse facility with future expansion of 161,750-sq. fi. In February 2003, Council approved PD-194R2, which amended the Amberpoint PD to modify the industrial park identification si~n location and design and to incorporate an additional 9.102 acres into this PD. i TRANSPORTATION:The Thoroughfare Plan shows Sandy Lake thoroughfare in a fight-of-way conl (adequate for a six-lane divided thom 41' C2U two-lane undivided thoroul Freeport Parkway, formerly State Ro: is an existing two-lane roadway.

The future ,4 within this phase and, therefore, is not previously granted conditions of the PD section are included within the requested with the following: · Applicant is proposing one a~ monument sign located east Parkway; staff recommends i proposed 60-square-foot mot approved to be located on Sa Building 4 on Freeport Parlo · The ingress/egress point sout depicted on the Site Plan, not drive across the street. Site Plan: The proposed buildings' sizes have bee Concept Plan was approved. The two bu Buildings 5 and 6, were both originally pr ation to amend the Planned fllow the construction of three aling 714,010-square-feet on mberpoint 3 is not considered ncluded in this review. The listed within the HISTORY Planned Development along [ditional 60-square-foot f Building 4 on Freeport ~oving one of the two ument signs currently ,dy Lake Road to east of ~ay, and awest of Building 4 as aligning with the existing modified since the initial ildings fronting Sandy Lake, Dosed at 108,000~sq. ft., and Building 4 was 501,600-sq. fi. This prot~osal shows the front two at 101,581 and 62,581-sq. ft., respectively, an~ Building 4 at 549,848-sq. ft., thus reducing the overall size by 3,590-sq. fi. The sizes were adjusted due to the relocation of the future median opening on Sandy Lake. There are seven proposed ingress/egress points tr~ serve these three buildings. The one located southeast of Building 4 is proposed to be constructed at this time, but barricaded until Freeport Parkway is improved. Staff has concerns about track traffic entering and exi~ing at this point and the close proximity of residences, and would recom~nend that a headache bar be installed at the time of tie-in to limit this access to vehicular traffic only. Item # 7 Page 3 of 6 Staff will evaluate the proposed barricade for safety and aesthetic issues prior to City Council consideration. The ~outhwest ingress/egress point will not directly align with the existing drive across Northpoint, and an exception to this requirement is being reques~ted. Parking: The parking required and provided for e~ch proposed use (office and warehouse) is broken down as follows: Bldg. Total Area Office Area Warehm se Parking Parking # (Sq. Ft.) (Sq. Ft.) Area (Sq. Ft.) Required Provided 4 549,848 54,000 10% 495,847i 90% 676 679 5 101,581 50,700 50% 50,8811 50% 220 229 6 62,581 31,200 50% 31,381 50% 135 137 714,010 135,900 19% 578,109[ 81% 1,031 1,045 There are 220 spaces required for Building 5, provided are 229 with 22 located on the west side of Building 6. Thet other parking areas proposed are directly abutting or adjacent to each of t~eir respective buildings. The difference from the approved Concept l~lan and this proposal is a substantial increase in proposed office space. The previous plan indicated that 46,680-sq. fl. would be devoted to o~ffice whereas this plan shows 135,900-sq. fi. and a subsequent increase in parking spaces required. Landscaping: The applicant is using a portion of the detention area for the required nonvehicular landscape area. In a previous phase with the construction of the detention area, trees were planted alongthe berm on the outer edge. The majority have died and some were never installed in accordance with the previous plan. Trees will be replanted along with the required perimeter landscaping on Freeport. There isian existing 10' Hike and Bike and Utility easement adjacent to Freeport P~irkway. This is proposed to be expanded to 20' to allow for the future construction of a 12'-wide Hike and Bike Trail. The perimeter landscaping will be planted west of and adjacent to the easement. The perimeter lal~dscaping on the south end of the lot (south end of the Future Phase) x~ill be constructed during the construction of that phase. The landscaping along Freeport, Northpoint and Sandy Lake will be a continuation of tt~e landscaping provided in the previous phase to the west (Staples) with alternating Red Oaks and Live Oaks. There are 41 Bald Cypress and 33 C~dar Elms shown on the Plant Table at 6 caliper inches. UnfortunatelyI this was a mistake per the Landscape Architect and will be corrected t~, read 3 caliper inches. Elevations: Page 4 of 6 Item # 7 The architecture of the buildings is similar to that of the Somera and Staples buildings. The building materials are tilt wall with accents and reveals throughout. The end entries are to be constructed of simulated stone with cast stone caps, metal canol~ies and windows. Staff is recommending that the north elevation for iBuilding 6 be considered for enhancement with one additional entry in the middle to break up the expanse, as Sandy Lake is a primary imago zone and the north elevation for Building 5 shows multiple entries. The [front two buildings screen the dock high doors of Building 4 from Sandy Lake Rd. There are 12'-high screening walls along the west elevation of Building 5 and the east elevation of Building 6 to screen their loading areas. The perimeter landscaping (6-caliper inch Red Oaks ami Live Oaks, spaced 25' on center) along Freeport and the addition of approximately 17 Eastern Red Cedars at the north end of the detention are~ is intended to screen the dock high doors of the south elevation of Buildix~g 4 from view from Freeport Parkway. Future Building 3 will also screenithe south elevation from view from Northpoint Drive. Signs: The final issue relating to this developme~at is the proposed monument signs. As part of the approved Concept Site Plan for this PD and subsequent revisions specific locations and design criteria for monument signs were designated. Four 60-sq.ft. and o~ae 150-sq. ft. monument signs were approved for this site. As part of this Detail Site Plan approval, the applicant is requesting that an additional 160-sq. ft. monument sign be located along Freeport. Staff recommends that this sign be permitted on Freeport, but in exchange, one of the two proposed signs be subtracted from Sandy Lake Road. RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION: Staff is recommending APPROVAL of PD-194R3-LI, Ambe~point Business Park Detail Site Plan and PD revision, subject to: 1) Revise Elevations to show the screen walls locqtted on the west elevation for Building 5 and the east elevation for Building 6 a~ shown on the Site Plan. 2) Enhance the north elevation for Building 6 to inclBde one additional entry in the center to meet the articulation requirement of the Boning Ordinance. 3) Note on plans that the southeastern drive wil! not be used until Freeport Parkway is improved. Submit proposed barricade, and indicate that a headache bar will be installed upon tie-in.
