Since the Planning Commission approved the Revised Final Plat on June 12, 1990 the applicant has discovered several significant structural and operational challenges concerning the Agel Corman building. Improvements need to be made to increase the drifting snow load, to increase the efficiency of the HVAC and to increase the mechanical space which is required to allow environmentally sound rubbish separation. To make these expenses more feasible and practical, the applicant is proposing to extend the existing second floor all the way to the rear and raise the A/C systerri ten (10) feet.

Parking/circulation: No additional parking is required since retail parking is based on retail floor area and the addition will. be used for storage. Circulation pattern will not change from the plan approved on 6/12/90. 4. Landsgaïż½jjg- The landscaping requirement is $4500. The planting plan will meet this requirement. 5. Traffic: The original approval was based on a retail floor area of 14,500 square feet. Since the retail floor area will not be increased, traffic should not increase. 6.
