Title
Resolution to Approve the Reinhart Building Site Plan, located at 2255 & 2275 W. Stadium (CPC Recommendation: Approval - 8 Yeas and 0 Nays)
Memorandum
Approval of this resolution will allow for the construction of an 18,200- square foot, two-story office building.
Petition Summary:
* The Site Plan proposes to redevelop a 2.3-acre site at 2255 and 2275 W. Stadium Blvd that contains an existing 5,400-sq. ft. restaurant and vacant gas station. The gas station is to be demolished, replaced with a new 2-story, 18,200-sq ft. office building. The existing rear parking lot will be reconfigured and 112 spaces accessed from a shared driveway between the existing restaurant and proposed office building.
* Planning Commission asked city staff if the existing sidewalk fronting W. Stadium could be widened to accommodate pedestrians. The petitioner declined expanding this sidewalk width as it is currently 8-feet wide (city standard is 5-feet) and would intrude on the street tree planting area.
The City Planning Commission, at its meeting of February 7, 2017, recommended approval of this request.
