Applicant: Juan del Rio
SAP#:
Variation Requested: None
Recommendations Regarding Variations:
Section 16-18I.015: STREETSCAPE requirements table
Recommendation: The committee recognizes the constraints of the area, however recommends the applicant revisit streetscape requirements articulated in the code in conjunction with the CID’s current plans for the area and propose a solution that attempts to meet the code requirements to the extent possible,
Section 16-18I.016.3.a.I: Adjacent uses shall provide a pedestrian walkway with a minimum of four feet through the supplemental zone to connect to the sidewalk.
Recommendation: The committee recommends the applicant revise plans to ensure pedestrian access is provided in compliance with the code requirements.
Section 16-18I.020.4 – Interparcel access
Recommendation: The access for the proposed parking requires easements from two adjacent property owners. The applicant should provide copies of those fully executed agreements prior to the issuance of an SAP.
Additional Recommendations
The committee recommends the applicant coordinate with the Community Improvement District – Matt Gore (mgore@buckheadcid.com) – regarding current efforts to rework the sidewalk/streetscape along the Roswell Road frontage of the property. These changes should be incorporated into the development plans.
The committee recommends the applicant explore and confirm parking requirements associated with alcohol licensing to ensure the application addresses the total need required. It is believed that 39 spaces will be required which will require the applicant to execute a shared parking arrangement for ten spaces elsewhere in the area that are signed and marked in accordance with Section 16.18I.023.5.b.II. The applicant will need to provide an executed copy of the shared parking agreement. The committee notes that the property is currently in violation of the code requirements for parking as off-site arrangements are not signed or marked as required.
The committee requests the applicant provide additional detail regarding clearance height on the proposed parking and details regarding lighting and efforts that will be undertaken for security.
The committee recommends the applicant pay particular attention to ADA requirements with regard to circulation on the front of the site to ensure compliance with all codes.
The Development Committee does expect to see this applicant again in October
