NEW BUSINESS
Item No. 1: Site Development Plan approval to reuse the existing
building for office space and to construct an 8-space
parking lot at 801 Odlin Road in an Industry and Service
District. Lane Construction Corporation, applicant.
Mr. Brian Raymond, Plant Manager with Lane Construction Corporation, indicated
that they have purchased the property at 801 Odlin Road and are proposing to reuse it
for office space for its engineering and executive employees, and to construct employee
parking. Mr. Raymond indicated that this property abuts their existing property.
Planning Officer Gould indicated that the applicant, Lane Construction
Corporation, is requesting Site Development Plan approval to reuse 2,382 square feet of
floor area on the first and second floors as office space which requires 8 parking spaces
at one space per 300 square feet of floor area. The applicant proposes to remove the
concrete slab and existing driveways, build a new paved driveway and an eight-space
parking lot. The improvements to the site will reduce the impervious area. The
applicant proposes landscaping between the street and parking spaces which meets the
required “B” Buffer. The City Engineer’s Office has reviewed the plans and finds them
2
to be adequate. Staff finds that the plans, as submitted, meet the standards for Site
Development Plan Approval.
Mr. Miller moved that the Board grant Site Development Plan approval to reuse
the existing building for office space and to construct an 8-space parking lot at 801
Odlin Road in an Industry and Service District for the Lane Construction Corporation,
applicant. Mr. Theeman seconded the motion, which passed by a vote of 6 to 0.
There was no further discussion and the meeting was adjourned at 4:05 p.m.
