(4)Resolution:Consideration of the Site Plan for Parkview Plaza Bill Peard moved to
approve the resolution.Nick Gruber second.Eric Jensen of Civil Design Advantage,
501 Nl12th Street,Grimes,Iowa,representing Stanbrough Companies,presented the Site
Plan.The site is on the south side of University Avenue,south ofthe high school and
east of the Kum &Go.They are proposing a 9500 square feet retail building and
associated parking.Access will occur through the entrance/exit to the north and east
currently in existence for Kum &Go and through an alternate entrance offL.A.Grant
Parkway.CDA is aware of the possibility of no left lane turning onto University from
the entrance/exit drive-way being shared by Kum &Go and the proposed building due to
widening of University Avenue and the placement of a median prohibiting left turns at
that location.Until the widening occurs,lanes will be painted to provide for a (1)lane
exiting University either left or right;(2)lane turning left onto University Avenue,
exiting the development area,and (3)lane exiting right onto University Ave from the
development area.Mr.Jensen indicated CDA worked closely with City staff when
designing the elevations for the building including the pitched roof,the parking area and
green space.The site is one parking stall shy of the correct number of parking spaces due
to the city's request for more green space and the spatial tightness of the design.The
reader board for a potential business with drive-through access is to be placed so that the
reader board is not pointing towards the roadway.Mark Trost,Stranbrough
Development,6151 Thornton Ave.,Ste 700,Des Moines,Iowa discussed potential
business types such as dry cleaner,a sandwich shop,insurance,dentist,which might
locate in the building.Roll call:Ayes:Peard,Gruber,Bailey,Stanton,Mertz.Nays:
None.Motion carried 5 -O.
(5)Resolution:Consideration of the Site Plan for Westside Plaza Building II Don
Bailey,It'.moved to approve the resolution.J eff'Mertz second.Council member Bailey
asked if the domestic and fire water service had been provided to the building and
whether the perimeter silt fence and other erosion control measures had been completed.
Public Works Director John Gibson indicated the last revised plans do not show the
update or the detail to deterinine whether these have been completed.Steve Fisher,Point
Builders,L.L.c.,2100 Dixon,Des Moines,representing West Side Plaza and Scott Jones,
owner,indicated that silt fencing has been added to the drawing and landscaping will be
added in the next week or so.The fire service is shown on the latest plan connected to
the building.Mr.Gibson stated there would need to be separate shut-offs on both
domestic and fire water service and a note ofthat should be included on the plans.This
building was part of the original site plan proposal when another building was designed
and built.According to Mr.Fisher the only major change in the site plan is the addition
Of nine parking spaces.The brick used in the first building is not available until next
year;so,a substitute brick will be chosen.Roll call:Ayes:Bailey,Mertz,Peard,Stanton,
Gruber.Nays:None.Motion carried 5 -O.
(6)Ordinance:Consideration of all ordinance to amend Sections 218.1 (D)and
218.4(C)of the Waukee Municipal Code to allow for the installation of sidewalks by
the City.The cost of whicb will be secured through voluntary agreement and lien by
property owners 011 which the sidewalk is installed as all alternative to the assessment
process (intro and first reading)Darlene Stanton introduced this ordinance.Nick
Gruber moved to have the first reading in title only,waive the second and third and place
this ordinance on its final passage.Darlene Stanton second.The original'Sidewalk'
ordinance creating Section 218,required the City to proceed to the assessment process if
new sidewalks were to be constructed and the property owner refused to do so for
whatever reason.This amendment to the ordinance permits an alternate way of working
with the property owner and permits the City to construct the sidewalk after having
negotiated or worked out an agreement with the property owner to place a lien on the
property until the sidewalk is paid for.Council members Don Bailey,Jr.,Nick Gruber
and Jeff Mertz discussed this amendment.City Attorney Steve Brick explained the
change to the ordinance merely acknowledges the sidewalk assistance program,which
provided grants and other forms of assistance,if the property owner qualified,This
change in the ordinance would permit the City to proceed.Roll call:Ayes:Gruber,
Stanton,Peard,Bailey,Mertz.Nays:None.Motion carried 5 -O.Mark Arentsen read
the ordinance in title only.MayOTPro Tem Jeff Mertz declared the ordinance passed and
duly adopted.
(7)Ordinance:Consideration of all ordinance to amend Section 301.28(B),to remove
language concerning the waiver of building permit fees from the ordinance and correct
the reference to the Schedule of Fees.(intro and first reading)This item removed
from the agenda.
(8)Ordinance:Consideration of all ordinance to amend Chapter 304,to add to the Site
Plan Ordinance of the City of Waukee establishing applicability provisions,defintions,
design guidelines and standards,and an effective date for lighting regulation ill the
City of Waukee,Iowa (third reading}Bill Peard moved to have the third reading in title
only.Darlene Stanton second.The original ordinance contained a light emission of not
more than 35 foot candles for canopies such as those at covenience stores.Council
member Gruber wanted the number of foot candles to be not more than 65 foot candles
because he thought more light was needed for safety and business reasons.65 foot
candles in place of the 35 foot candles was part of the amendment to the ordinance before
the second reading.Research with actual in-the-field measurements of canopy lightiug at
various convenience store locations resulted in the findings that all but one of the
convenience stores had lighting that was less than or equal to 35 foot candles.Don
Bailey,Jr.moved to amend the ordinance by deleting 65 foot candles from
304.4(N)(3)(c)(3)and inserting in its place 35 foot candles.Darlene Stanton seconded
the motion.Roll call on the amendment to the Ordinance:Ayes:Bailey,Stanton,Mertz,
Peard.Nays:Gruber.Motion carried 4 -I.Roll call on the amended ordinance:Ayes:
Peard,Stanton,Gruber,Bailey,Mertz.Nays:None.Motion carried 5 -O.Mark
Arentsen read the ordinance.Mayor Pro Tem Mertz declared the ordinance passed and
duly adopted.
(9)Resolution:Consideration for the authorization of City Staff to install or repair
sidewalks required to be repaired and/or installed under the sidewalk improvement
program,at property owners request,UpOIlsecuring repayment for the costs and
expenses of the same from the property owners on whose properties the sidewalk is
installed Don Bailey,Jr.moved to approve the resolution.Darlene Stanton second.As
previously discussed in Item J6,the Ordinance amending Section 2l8.l(D)and 218.4(C)
permits an alternate way to work with property owners to construct new sidewalks
without proceeding with the assessment process,which because ofthe requirements of
the process adds another layer of cost associated with the construction of the sidewalk.
Providing assistance or alternate ways of paying for the construction of the new sidewalk
will benefit the City and the property owner.After some discussion,Council member
Bailey added to his motion:October 2nd,2005 as the date ofthe Council meeting
(corrected to the actual date of October 3rd,2005),interest rate of 3%on the cost of
construction of the sidewalk,final payment shall not be extended beyond 120 months and
each payment is to be no less than $10.00 per month.Roll call:Ayes:Bailey,Stanton,
Mertz,Peard,Gruber,Nays:None.Motion carried 5 -O.
