ALLEN PARK PLANNING COMMISSION

MICHAEL I. MIZZI – CITY CLERK

March 17, 2020 Site Plan Review and Amendment Commercial Structure City of Allen Park,

Applicant: Allen Park Retail Management, LLC Project Name: Aspen Dental Plan Date: March 02, 2020 Location: 3355 Fairlane Drive Zoning: C-6A, Regional Shopping District (Fairlane Green District) Property Size: 1.77 Acres Action Requested: Site Plan Approval

The applicant is seeking site plan review and amendment approval for a 3,537 square-foot structure commercial structure at 3355 Fairlane Drive. At the regularly scheduled May 3, 2018 Planning Commission meeting, site plan approval was granted for the development of a 4,996 square foot fast food restaurant (with a drive through window), and a 2,880 square foot retail building. Per Section 52-904 aamendments to an approved site plan may be made by the planning commission provided that such changes conform to this chapter and the landowner agrees. The 477 square-foot increase of the proposed structure requires a site plan amendment. Except for the proposed structure, the adjacent building and entire parking area is complete. Per Section 52-437 of the Allen Park Zoning Ordinance, retail, entertainment/restaurant and commercial land uses typically found in a retail shopping center in the C-6A zoning district. We are of the opinion the proposed use is commercial in nature and is now a more common use found in retail shopping center areas. 3355 Fairlane Drive March 17, 2020

2 3355 Fairlane Drive March 17, 2020

The following analysis was included in the May 3, 2018 review of the original site plan. Per the zoning ordinance, parking spaces for restaurants is required in the amount of one (1) space for each one-hundred (100) square feet of gross floor area, and parking for general retail is required in the amount of one (1) space for each two-hundred (200) square feet of gross floor area. Based upon the square footage of the buildings, 65 parking spaces are required. The applicant is proposing 66 parking spaces, including four (4) barrier free spaces. Parking space sizes are proposed at 9’ (width), and 18” (length), which meets the standards of the zoning ordinance. Section 52-1011 requires six (6) vehicle stacking spaces per ordering window/menu board. Thirty (30) stacking spaces are proposed. The parking area was installed when the restaurant (with drive-thru) was developed and contains sixty- five (65) parking spaces, including four (4) barrier-free spaces. As was the case of the original site plan, the proposed use and the existing use will have overlapping hours and therefor the parking cannot be considered collective parking. Based on the parking requirements for restaurants (with drive-thru), the minimum number of required dedicated parking spaces is fifty (50); whereas, the minimum number of required dedicated parking spaces for the proposed dental office is twenty-four (24). The proposed change of use and increase building footprint leave a parking shortage of nine (9) spaces. Considering the parking area was installed with the number of parking spaces approved in 2018, area for parking expansion to accommodate the shortage is not available. The applicant had discussion with representatives from regarding an easement or lease agreement for up to twenty (20) deferred parking spaces in their parking area. This will be designated for employee parking with potential for future customer parking if necessary. Per Section 52-1000 of the Allen Park zoning ordinance, the planning commission may allow off-site parking for only commercial, office or industrial uses if the off-site parking is compatible with the use of the total site and all of the following conditions are met: (1) The off-site parking is located within 300 feet of the use requiring the parking. This distance being measured from the center point of the parking facility to the nearest point of pedestrian entrance to the structure; (2) The off-site parking facility is not separated from the structure by any major or secondary thoroughfare as designated by the city, or separated by any physical barrier or public improvement; (3) A protected and defined means of pedestrian access is provided; and (4) A covenant as indicated in section 52-1008 is executed which legally and irrevocably binds the off-site parking facility to the property upon which the structure is located. We recommend the applicant install signage, in the locations demonstrated by stars the image below, designating parking spaces between said signs is reserved for dental patients. Furthermore, if the onsite parking spaces designated for patients becomes inadequate, the applicant will be required to provide a covenant which legally and irrevocably binds the off-site parking facility to the property upon which the structure is located.
