COMPOSITE REPORT-Page 3 Application No. CUP 1452 during warm weather months. The existing four access points are sufficient in number to serve the property. However, the existing access point near the intersection of East Badger Road and Nob Hill Road is closer to that intersection (about 30 feet away)than standards would advise. This may result in potentially unsafe turning movements. County property records suggest that the northern half of Badger Road in this area is in the Town, with the southern half in the City. Staff was unable to speak with the Town Engineer about this access point by the time this report was written, but will attempt again to contact him before the public hearing. 6. That the conditional use shall conform to all applicable regulations. The applicants have requested another variance to the zoning ordinance parking standards given the additional outdoor activity use, and the fact that this use covered 32 existing parking spaces. The Board of Adjustment is scheduled to review that variance request on August 28. Preliminary staff calculations suggest that the entire facility would require a variance allowing 210 to 260 fewer spaces than standards would suggest. However, the submitted site plan does not provide sufficient detail to determine the exact amount. Zoning staff have requested a more detailed site plan with dimensions of parking areas and building floor plans. E. The Town of Madison Board recommended approval of the CUP request at its August 11 meeting with no conditions. III. SUMMARY A. The outdoor activity area for which this CUP is requested would allow primarily evening recreational activities immediately north of the existing Badger Bcwl building. The direct land use impact of the use on the neighborhood is probably minimal, provided that hours of operation are limited. However, outstanding issues remain regarding the adequacy of the number of parking stalls available and the safety of an existing road access near the Badger Road and Nob Hill Road intersection. B. Staff suggests that the Committee postpone action on this request until the following issues are resolved: 1. The applicant submits a more detailed site plan, including dimensions of all parking stalls, drive aisles, and external and internal areas of buildings. All areas accessible to patrons should also be identified. 2. The Board of Adjustment acts on the parking variance request. 3. Staff has the opportunity to discuss the parking lot access point near the Badger/Nob Hill Road intersection with the Town Engineer. C. Once the above issues are resolved, the Committee may wish to consider conditions which would require operation of the outdoor activity area to end at perhaps 10 p.m., and limit development to that specifically shown on the submitted site plan.
