and,

Final Development Plan Criteria:

system circulating through the Project Development Plan site,
which will access public roads at 31st Avenue. and 41st Street.

5' wide concrete sidewalk along the entire frontage of 31St Avenue.

e) Foundation and Site Plantings: The Final Site Plan includes
proposed landscaping. Landscaping includes sod with trees
located along the perimeter of the site as well as internally.
f) Site Status: An approved grading/drainage plan is required prior to
construction. If extension of public utilities is proposed, approved
construction plans, easements and execution of a City-Owner
Contract will be required prior to issuance of development permits.

are required along the south boundary of Outlot A (location of the
• berm and drainage area).
h) Final Building Design: The shape of the building has been
modified slightly, and parking lot design was previously modified
with approval of the office building directly to the west. A shared
drive isle and parking spaces will be located between the two
buildings.

loading areas and circulation aisles appear to meet ordinance
requirements in terms of design.
