Subject: Solar canopy charging station - Riverside Block 5
Attachments: FW: Riverside Block 5, Solar Canopy
Ellie,
Re: Solar canopy charging station- Riverside Block 5
Based on the following this proposal requires a minor amendment to SDP2015-60.
Engineering: Justin Shimp has been working with Frank Pohl on this item. Their work has been about the
proposed location of the structure being above the underground detention facility. Per the attached email a
revised stormwater maintenance agreement is required to be submitted with the proposal and recorded prior to
approval (see attached). County Attorney review/approval of the revised doc will be required.
ARB: One of the big unknowns at this point is the level of ARB review. ARB was involved with the rezoning
and the site plans for this site, so they will be required to review the amendment but to what level. Prior to
submitting you should get with Margaret to determine if she can review it administratively or if it will require a
full ARB application for ARB to consider. She is out of the office till Wednesday.If you can't wait till then just
submit the minor and she'll be a reviewer- if she needs a full ARB submittal that will come out in her review.
Zoning/Planning:
Parking—Parking cals need to be updated. During the review we'll have questions about the charging stations
and the number of parking spaces onsite. Some things to consider& for you to provide info on w/the submittal:
will these spaces be solely for the charging vehicles? If these spaces are in excess of the total number required
they may be able to be used solely for electric vehicles. If not, then they must be regular spaces that anyone can
use and not be designated as some are in the attachment.
Lighting—Will there be lights under the canopy? If so, a revised lighting plan will be needed. The location of
the proposed facility interferes with new light pole(lighting plan shows 3 lights in this area). What is happening
to these lights? Are they going away or being relocated onsite? Assure that info is on the plan.
Landscaping- Also, as discussed in the email below you are converting landscape areas into parking spaces.
This will require a revised landscape plan w/revised calculations proving it still meets the min landscape
requirements for the site.
Monticello Viewshed-This proposal is located in the Montichello Viewshed. Thus the site plan needs to be
sent to them for their consideration.
Hope this helps.

Subject: RE: Question on Riverside Block 5
Ellie,
I am not familiar with Riverside.
You are going to have to give me some more information.
What site plan are we talking about amending (SDP#)? It matters be I need to see how many LORs and Minors
this project already has on it. SDP201500060
What TMP is this on? To help me find it quicker. 078G0-00-05-000A0
What exactly is a solar canopy? A plastic roof over existing parking spaces supported by steel beams?Will
there be lights in the canopy? I don't know much about it...have asked Justin for info, will let you know.
How tall is the canopy? Same.
Is this project in the EC? If so ARB review w/be required? GIS says it isn't in the EC, but there was ARB
review previously (before the subdivision,maybe?)...so we're looking for guidance from you guys on this one.
Are you converting landscape areas into parking spaces? If so, a revised landscape plan or at a min revised
calculations proving it still meets the min landscape requirements will be required. Yep, small landscape
changes; we will document, of course.
Based on your email it seems as though it'd be a LOR but may be a minor. I'd like to get into the above b4
providing a final decision.

Subject:Question on Riverside Block 5
Hey Chris,
Our client wants to add a solar canopy and four new parking spaces to this site plan. I feel like there has been some
discussion of the solar canopy previously, but I was not involved, so I could be wrong about that.The canopy is roughly
2400 sf. I have attached a PDF showing the location of the four additional parking spaces and the canopy;can you
provide some guidance on what type of amendmeintapplication will be required? You can see the old curb lines in the
exhibit if that's helpful in any way.
Thanks!
