Aw°-.40- SCJ ALLIANCE CONSULTING SERVICES from this standard will be processed at the time of application using the "ECC 15.210.060 Departures" section of the Ellensburg Municipal Code. *5: This comment/requirement has a significant impact to the parking lot design. The code is applicable site orientation and to limit off-street parking frontage to 50%. Since there is no building proposed this would drastically impact the parking lot design. The City of Ellensburg have provided code section on how to request a departure. We recommend requesting this departure from current city standards, we will proceed on that action when we make application. 6: Similar comment as "5". However, instead of the City recommending a code determination for approval, the City is recommending a code change to address 6` Avenue. We recommend support this effort but I believe this should be something completed by the city rather than Kittitas County incurring additional fees from SCJ Alliance to complete the code change. Of course, we will follow whatever direction our Kittitas needs to support the project. 7: This comment is pointing out another conflict with City code around frontage to storefront streets and limiting parking lots that frontage on multiple streets. Since this is a public parking lot serving an existing County facility. We will process comments 5 through 7 requesting the "departure" from the code requirement. In a "worst case scenario", and the City denies the departure we can adjust the parking lot to include a maintenance building on the North side of the lot, or we can present a landscape plan that breaks up the direct off-street parking design and propose landscaping and screening as a departure. 8: Pathway has been updated to be 6 ft wide and light poles will be no higher than 15 ft. 9: The wall will be approximately 3 ft tall and has 6 ft of landscaping in front of the wall. The wall material will be provided in the plan set. Original design was using 5 foot landscape bed, this will add 1 foot. 10: Two streetscape amenity will be provided along 6th St and four along either 7th St or Water St. Streetscape amenities will be taken from the list in ECC 15.520.080(C). 11: When we run the AG132 lighting program we will note these lighting levels. All fixtures will be below 25 ft height. We will verify landscaping will not obstruct the security lighting. 12 • We will verify the Plant material selection is consistent with the Public Works street tree list. The original design was using a 5 foot landscaping bed. We will reference Type C landscaping and adjust to a 6 foot deep landscaping bed. ,is comment in addition to comment 12 will I--- �r n{ • The City of Ellensburg is requiring that landscaping along the alley way be included, with a minimum of 10 landscaping area.
