.conditional Use Permit No. 2004-09 Site Plan Review No. 2004-02 May 10, 2004 Page 2 Proiect Description Crevier BMW is proposing to construct approximately 170,066 square feet of service, sales and office space and a five-level, six tier, 738 space parking structure. The parking structure will be 58 feet high at its tallest point and be used primarily for the storage of new car inventory. The project will be built in three phases: The parking structure will be constructed in Phase I; a new show room and office area in Phase II; and the new sales, service, parts and office addition to the existing Crevier building in Phase III. The new buildings will be constructed out of concrete block with a smooth painted finish that is compatible with existing buildings on the project site. The service buildings will be constructed out of split face block material and the parking structure will utilize a combination of split face block, plaster finish and tempered glass in the show room and office . areas (Exhibit 3). The proj ect will exceed the landscape requirements outlined in SD-60. Five percent of the site is required to be landscaped, while over seven percent will be landscaped. Additionally, a 20-foot landscaped setback will be provided along Edinger Avenue, except at approved display areas. The display areas will incorporate a combination of decorative paving and landscaping. Ten feet of landscaping will also be provided at the perimeter of the new parking structure per the City's Parking Structure Standards. As part of this project, the northwest corner of Edinger Avenue and Auto Mall Drive will be reconfigured to provide new entry landscaping and signage for the Auto Mall. These landscape improvements are on the Crevier BMW project site. Eleven existing queen palms in this area will remain in place or be relocated in the immediate area to accommodate the new entry signage and right hand turn lane on Auto Mall Drive. New entry signage and landscaping will also be provided on the northeast corner of Edinger Avenue and Auto Mall Drive so that the two corners will match. There are eight existing Queen Palms near the northeast corner which will remain in place or be relocated to match the northwest corner improvements. These sign and landscape improvements have been conditioned to be completed as part of Phase II construction. Any Queen .. Palms that die or become unhealthy as the result of relocation will be replaced with Queen Palms of a similar size. 31 B-3
