13 - SITE PLAN FOR EXPANSION OF LIBERTY NATIONAL BANK 140 N. COLLEGIATE DRIVEItem No. 13
memorandum
TO: Mayor & City Council
John Godwin, City Manager
FROM: Alan Efrussy, AICP, City Planning Manager
SUBJECT: SITE PLAN FOR LIBERTY NATIONAL BANK ON LOT 4 —B, CITY BLOCK
286, LOCATED AT 140 NORTH COLLEGIATE DRIVE
DATE: August 8, 2017
BACKGROUND: This site plan is entitled "Collegiate Drive Branch Expansion, Liberty
National Bank ", is dated 7 July 2017, and is zoned Planned Development (PD -a). Planned
Development (PD) Zoning Districts require the mandatory submission of a site plan with
recommendation by city staff and the Planning and Zoning Commission, with approval by the
City Council through the public hearing process. At the August 7th commission meeting, no one
spoke in favor of or in opposition to this site plan request. The commission voted unanimously
for approval.
STATUS OF ISSUE: The fundamental change to the original site plan is the proposed
expansion of the original bank building by more than fifty (50) percent. City planning principles
recommend that major amendments to an approved site plan shall be approved through the
original PD site plan public hearing process. An expansion of a primary building by more than
fifty percent, as is the case herein, is considered a major amendment and therefore the city staff
is establishing a public hearing process for this project.
This expansion will be of strong business benefit to the bank organization, and will provide
additional banking opportunities for citizens and businesses in Paris and the surrounding county
areas; therefore, the city staff is in support of this expansion.
Staff recently met with representatives of this bank, and they are anxious to cooperate with
meeting city requirements. They recently also submitted this site plan reflecting building
expansion. In that regard, and as part of its review, staff is recommending approval of this site
plan conditioned upon the following:
1. Illustrate additional landscaping as required as per the Paris Zoning Ordinance.
2. Delete all text that indicates that this site plan is preliminary in nature, and/or that "This
document is released for the purposes of review and comment......"
3. Add the name of the consulting firm that prepared the site plan, with the full address.
4. Provide the number of parking spaces required and the number accommodated.
5. Provide drainage calculations for proposed inlets and storm drains.
6. Provide appropriate signage for access driveways, indicating traffic direction.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve the Site Plan for the Liberty National Bank expansion located
at 140 North Collegiate Drive, subject to the conditions as stated herein.
