PROJECT NUMBER

BPC1702-002

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Heibert & Ball Land Design requests approval of a revised site plan for the Gary Force Acura dealership, located at 1634 Westgate Circle. Previously, the Planning Commission approved an extension to the original approval in November 2016.

The plan proposes expansion of the existing parking area by adding 34 new vehicle storage spaces along the north side of the site.

The plan shows a reduction in the width of the existing 75-foot wide buffer along the northern side of the property to 35 feet. There is a 20-foot difference in elevation between the finished grade of the parking lot and the northern property boundary. A segmented stone retaining wall with a maximum height of 6.5’ is proposed. Existing trees currently planted low on the slope will be removed and replaced with an equal number of caliper inches higher up on the slope. Due to the change in grade, the improvements will not be seen from the adjacent properties to the north.

An original buffer area of 75 feet was shown on the rezoning plan for Westgate. In 2008, the planning commission approved a reduction to 55 feet. Although this current request appears to be consistent, staff is now of the opinion that the 10-foot wide City owned strip zoned SI-3/SR should not negate the buffer strip requirement.

Staff requested that the applicant contact the immediately adjacent property owners and review the plan with them. Two lots in the Brenthaven Place Subdivision abut the Acura location.
