The project is located at 16738 East Parkview Avenue (APN#176- 05-165). Case Number CP2013-03 Robert Rodgers, Senior Planner and Zoning Administrator gave the presentation and included a PowerPoint Presentation (Exhibit A). Mr. Rodgers pointed out that the concept plan submitted by Randal and Jolene Johnson, owners, was in conformance with all underlying Zoning Ordinance requirements permitted in the C-2 zoning district. The applicants have proposed to upgrade the landscaping and construct sidewalks at the front and rear of the new building. Mr. Rodgers added that the building façade would be a stucco over CMU design with split-face brick accent bands under the windows and across the front of the building about 10' high. The property has a zero lot line allowance on the sides so the sides of the building would be painted brick in visible locations. Mr. Rodgers stated that staff recommended that the Planning and Zoning Commission approve the Concept Plan subject to the following stipulations: 1. No occupancy permit shall be issued prior to the completion of all site improvements as depicted and approved. Said improvements must be approved by both the Town Engineer and the Zoning Administrator. 2. Applicant shall submit an amended Concept Plan, if necessary, showing all notes and revisions required by this decision to the Zoning Administrator for review and approval prior to occupancy. Randal and Jolene Johnson were present and answered questions asked by the Commissioners. Mr. and Mrs. Johnson explained that the building would mostly be storage and used for initial tear-down of vehicles. The Johnson's explained that the building could house approximately 26 cars ready for customer pick-up. They also explained that any auto painting took place in Tempe and stressed that no painting would be attempted at this location. Commissioner Steven Harris spoke in support of this project. Commissioner Gene Slechta requested the following stipulation added to the approval. 3. The applicants of this Concept Plan must have Plat 208 approval for activities on Plat 208 property.
