RE: Response Letter #4 for SDP-2020-00018 (Brady Bushey Ford — Major Amendment)
Dear Andy,
Thank you for your review of the major site plan amendment for Brady Bushey Ford. This letter contains
responses to County comments dated March 23, 2021.Our responses are as follows:
1. Now that staff has a better understanding of where the proposed parking is and which parking
spaces are proposed for each use, it has been determined that there is not enough parking on each
of the two lots for them to be able to stand separately if the parcels were sold to different owners.
A shared parking agreement will be required to be reviewed, approved, and recorded at the
courthouse for these two properties before the site plan can be approved, ensuring that sufficient
parking is provided for each use on each parcel. Comment has not been addressed. A shared
parking agreement will be required prior to approval of the site plan. The shared parking
agreement will need to be reviewed by County staff and recorded at the courthouse prior to
approval. Please let me know if you would like an example of previously recorded shared
parking agreements for reference. With the proposed closure of the entrance directly into
TMP 78-6 from U.S. Route 250, a shared access easement will also need to be a part of this
agreement to ensure continued access onto 78-6. It is recommended that these items be
included with the easement plat required by Engineering for the stormwater management
facilities and access easements; however, the various agreements and easements can be done
with separate plats and deeds if so desired. Comment still needs to be addressed.
RESPONSE: Comment received. The access easement is now shown on the site plan and once
the easement plat has been finalized, it will be submitted together with the shared parking
agreement.
If you have any questions or concerns about these revisions, please feel free to contact me at
