Approval of a Final Plat for Westgate Business Park Plat 5
Community Development Director, Andy Kass, introduced the request for approval of a
preliminary plat, final plat, and site plan for an office development, as submitted by the applicant,
Access Systems. The property is generally located north of SE Olson Drive and west of SE
Alice’s Road, containing approximately 3.08 acres. The applicant wishes to replat the two
existing lots into one lot and construct a new facility to the east of the existing facility.
Mr. Kass advised that the project involves the construction of a 33,450 square foot office building
for Access Systems and is proposed to be two stories in height. The site plan identifies an area for
expansion however any future expansion will require additional review and approval. A trash
enclosure is located on the northwest side of the site. Access will be provided via SE Olson
Drive, and storm water management will be provided via an underground detention system. All
parking, landscaping, open space, and elevation requirements have been met at this time. Staff
would recommend approval of the preliminary plat, final plat, and site plan subject to any
remaining staff comments and review of the legal documents.
Commissioner Streit questioned how often the underground detention is serviced. Mr.
Kass advised that the requirements are very similar to a ground level pond. The city now
requires maintenance plans on stormwater management and detention so that the
information can more easily be passed along through changing hands.
