Final Site Inspection - Chan Commercial Building
Wade - Planning conducted a site inspection of the Chan commercial building, parking lot, and landscaping yesterday
and determined there are some deficiencies that require attention prior to issuance of building occupancy. Among the
. items noted are the following:
1. At least one plant is missing from the front planter strip along Main Street (see below). Additionally, it appears
that the planter strip between the sidewalk and the curb line might be undergoing turf replacement, but at
present most of the area is just loose soil.

2. The bike rack in the northeast corner of the site is installed incorrectly (see picture). It should be bolted to the
asphalt surface and provide sufficient room between the rack and the parking lot curbline to allow bicycles to be
attached.

4. In general, although the plant quantities conform to the approved site plan, now that they have been installed
the coverage does not extend into the bottom of the vegetative swales. Staff recommends additional sedge

5. Staff observes that one lease bay appears to be occupied even though no temporary or final building occupancy
has been issued for this site. To ensure there are no conflicts with City inspections and approvals, the owner
and tenant are requested to comply with all City inspection and permitting requirements arising from this site
development. This could include cessation of tenant activities within the lease space until all inspections have
been completed and building occupancy has been issued.

6. Staff was unable to enter the tenant bays to confirm that sufficient floor space has been delineated for internal
bicycle parking in accordance with the approved site plan.
I have advised the City's Building Inspector that Planning does not object to issuance of temporary occupancy for the
building. However, staff advises that the noted site deficiencies must be satisfactorily addressed before the site is
eligible for final building occupancy. If you have any questions or would like to request a re-inspection, please contact
the undersigned. Thanks.
