PLANNING & ENGZNEERING
DEPARTMENTS
Separate applications have been submitted requesting a Waiver of
Plat in order to split Lots 14 and 16, Block 7 of the Eagandale
Zndustrial Park and combine them into two lots totaling 7.2 acres
located along West Service Road and Eagan Industrial Roadr and a
Conditional Use Permit to allow outside storage and a pylqn sign
on the southern Parcel W. That area containing 4.1 acres will
be developed immediately for a General Electric office/warehouse
facility. Parcel 'B' (3.3 acres) to the north will be marketed
as a buildable site.
SITE PLAN
These lots are separated from others to the west by a 25'
railroad spur easement. Georgia Pacific Lumber Company is
located along the south side of Eagan Industrial Road. The site
is relatively flat grassland perched above Hwy. 35-E and it is
doubtful much of the buildings will be visable from that area.
The 7,000 square ft. office will be constructed of brick with a
dryvit (stucco like) fascia. The 30,644 square ft. two story
warehouse will be painted precast concrete panels. Additional
warehouse expansion area (14,742 square ft.) has been provided to
the north. The total lot coverage, including the expansion area,
is 29$ in a 35% district. The office area alone requires 37 ten
foot wide parking stalls and 63 have been provided - aliowing 26
for the warehouse area. Staff expects this amount to be more
than adequate. All building and parking setbacks meet code
requirements. The yard storage area containing 9,950 square ft.
on the west side of the building is fenced and code requires that
this area must be paved with curbing.
Detailed pylon plans have not been finalized, however they must
stay at or under the 125 square ft. per side. Opus will not
allow any signs above 25' in the industrial park on land they
develop.
A Landscape Plan was submitted that works well conceptually.
is consistent with other Opus developed projects. If the grading
plan can be modified slightly, it would be desirable to raise the
berm near the west properly line and south of the entrance along
West Service Road. This, howevet,is not a major concern.
GRADING/DRAINAGE/EROSION CONTROL: 'I'he development proposes cut
and fill areas of approximately 10'+/- in the proposed ponding
area to approximately 4'+/- for berming along Eagan Industrial
Road and West Service Road, respectively.
'i'he proposed development is located in drainage Basin H,
Subdistrict H-10, as designated in the Eagan Comprehensive Storm
Sewer Plan. In an effort to improve the drainage and restrict
the runoEf from this site, the development is proposing a 0.25
acre feet of storage ponding area located in the southwesterly
corner of the development. 'Phis ponding area receives
approximately 1.8 acres of direct_runoff from the roof and
parking area. It is recommended that the outlet pipe for the
ponding area be restricted to 0.5 cubic feet per second (cfs)
outflow. It is further recommended that the remaining 3.2 acres
northerly of this site also provide ponding of its water
restricting its outflow to approximatQly 4 cfs when it develops.
The development is proposing a drainage swale along the northerly
side o£ the proposed warehouse facility. The development may
want to assess the feasibility of picking up that drainage along
the northerly side of the warehouse and conveying it through the
proposed ponding area on the southwesterly corner. The proposed
future warehouse addition would prohibit this proposed drainage
swale from functioning.
The proposed construction should pose no serious erosion control
problems. The development will be required to submit appropriate
erosion control measures which will prohibit sediment transport
offsite during the building construction phases.
UTILITIES: Sanitary sewer service of sufficient depth and
capacity and water, main service o£ sufficient capacity and
pressure are readily available in Eagan Industrial Road and West
Service Road.
STREETS/ACCESS/CIRCULATION: Public street access is readily
available to this site and is proposed from the southerly
adjacent Eagan Industrial Road and the easterly adjacent West
Service Road. '1'he proposed entrance width from public right-of--
way shall be at least 30' wide. The development will also be
responsible for constructing concrete valley gutters through the
proposed intersections with the public street.
EASEMENTS/RIGHTS-OF-WAY/PERMITS: Sufficient right-of-way for
Eagan Industrial Road and West Service Road were dedicated with
previous platting processes.
The development will be responsible for providing the appropriate
easement for the proposed public storm sewez along the westezly
side of the development.
All regulatory agency permits shall be acquired within the
appropriate time frame as required by the affected agency.
ASSESSMENTS: A search of City: special assessment records show
the property has fulfilled all of the appropriate assessments
associated with previous street and utility construction.
