Memorandum
Attached is a resolution to approve the AAA Ann Arbor Branch Office (1100 South Main Street) Site Plan. Approval of this resolution will allow for the construction of a 5,443-square foot new branch office for AAA in phase one, and a 2,230-square foot addition in phase two, and 21 off-street parking spaces.
Petition Summary:
· The Site Plan proposes to remove the existing 72-space parking lot and construct a one-story AAA branch office in two phases, and 21 off-street parking spaces. The first phase of construction will include 5,443 square feet, and the second phase will add 2,230 square feet for a total building size of 7,673 square feet. The 21 proposed parking spaces will satisfy the off-street for phase one of the development.
· A separate site plan, AAA Ann Arbor Branch Office (1200 South Main Street), is proposed to demolish the existing AAA branch office and parking lot at 1200 South Main Street and develop a new 14-space parking lot to satisfy the off-street parking requirements for phase two. In total, the petitioner is seeking 35 off-street parking spaces, four more than the maximum permitted if the parking was contained on the 1100 South Main Street site. The petitioner wishes to install all 35 parking spaces as part of phase one of the development.
· A separate petition to rezone a portion 1200 South Main Street from O (Office District) to P (Parking District) has been submitted. Parking lots as a principal use are not permitted in the O district.
