<br />Underwood Business Park <br />SCUP #07-005 <br />Page 2 of3 <br /> <br />Conclusion! <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />Transportation - The project is located near State Highway 225 and <br />Battleground Road, a primary arterial and major truck route. As a result, <br />this project provides more than adequate accessibility for circulation of <br />traffic. All traffic entering/existing will be through Porter Road along <br />Old Underwood Road. There should be very limited impact on traffic <br />flow within the vicinity, even after full implementation of the said <br />business park. <br /> <br />Topography - This area is relatively flat and stable and should not be <br />an obstacle to this type of development. <br /> <br />Utilities and Drainage - Public facilities and services are sufficient to <br />handle the supply of potable water. Water lines have been upgraded for <br />fire protection in the area. In addition, provisions must be made to <br />ensure sufficient utility extensions are provided to serve this <br />development. Storm water drainage will be managed by on-site <br />detention to mitigate any adverse impacts associated with this proposed <br />development. <br /> <br />Staff feels that the entire project has potential and would make a <br />significant impact on economic development within the City of La <br />Porte. Based on the above analysis, staff recommends approval of the <br />Plan and Special Conditional Use Permit with the following conditions: <br /> <br />· This Special Conditional Use Permit is not applicable to any other <br />specific development anticipated or proposed by the General Plan. <br /> <br />· This SCUP outlines, in general terms, the proposed Planned Unit <br />Development. The developer recognizes and understands that any <br />future construction or development of the private or public <br />improvements anticipated by this SCUP and General Plan shall <br />require further submittal and approval of plats, site plans, <br />construction drawings, engineering analysis, covenants, etc. <br /> <br />· Provide on-site improvements, loading and unloading ramps/bays <br />that adequately handle the volume associated with this office/ <br />warehousing facility. <br /> <br />· A site plan and/or separate plans shall be submitted in conjunction <br />with the building permit application. Landscaping is required in <br />percentages specified in Section 106-522 of the Code of Ordinances. <br />
