074-04: REQUIREMENTS:
Unless otherwise noted, the following shall apply to all land within the Jordan Creek Crossing II specific plan:
   A.   General Conditions:
      1.   Unless otherwise specified herein, the development of the Jordan Creek Crossing II specific plan shall comply with the provisions of the West Des Moines zoning ordinance.
      2.   Unless otherwise specifically approved by the city council, the developer, their successors and/or assigns, if any, shall pay all planning, engineering, and construction costs for the development of the planned unit development, as required by this ordinance and approved site plans which may include, but are not limited to, the cost of all streets, storm sewers, sanitary sewers, streetlights, drainageway improvements, detention basins, water mains, buffers and other improvements as required. No occupancy permits, either temporary or permanent, will be issued until all public improvements are either installed or properly bonded for as determined by the public works department and accepted by the city council.
      3.   All streets and internal traffic flows, including parking lots, shall permit the travel of the fire department's largest vehicle, including accommodating adequate turning needs. Approval of unique design solutions to accommodate turning movements may be granted by the city council if the solutions proposed are acceptable to the West Des Moines fire marshal.
   B.   Specific Conditions: In addition to the general conditions of this specific plan, the following guidelines and requirements shall apply:
      1.   Land Use: All general use regulations and provisions set forth in title 9, "Zoning", of the city code for the regional commercial (RC) district as permitted and permitted conditionally shall apply except as designated below:

         c.   Drive-through facilities are not allowed.
         d.   Outdoor storage of materials is not allowed.
      2.   Setbacks:
         a.   A twenty five foot (25') building setback from the property line shall be provided along Coachlight Drive and South 64th Street. Porticos and pedestrian patio/plaza spaces are allowed to encroach into this setback area, but no parking or accessory structures not associated with and approved as part of an outdoor patio/plaza space is allowed to encroach into the setback area.
         b.   A twenty foot (20') building setback from the property line shall be provided along the south and west sides of the specific plan area. Porticos and pedestrian patio/plaza spaces are allowed to encroach into this setback area, but no parking or accessory structures not associated with and approved as part of an outdoor patio/plaza space is allowed to encroach into the setback area.
         c.   Off street parking areas shall be set back a minimum of twenty five feet (25') from the ultimate right of way line for both Coachlight and South 64th Street. A ten foot (10') setback is required along any other adjoining lot lines; however, no parking lot setback is required when the parking area is designed as a shared lot between two (2) parcels and a reciprocal access and use agreement has been established.
      3.   Height Restrictions: Unless otherwise noted in this ordinance, the height of buildings shall conform to the standard zoning provisions for the professional commerce park (PCP) district, with the exception of building elements such as bell towers, clock towers or other vertical architectural elements. These elements may exceed height restrictions, to a maximum height of seventy feet (70'), with the approval of the director of development services as part of the site plan process or city council, when applicable.
      4.   Parking Requirements:
         a.   Lot 1: The minimum number of parking stalls required per building per use on any parcel included within the Jordan Creek Crossing II specific plan shall conform to title 9, chapter 15 of the city code.
         b.   Lot 2: A minimum of one space per three hundred (300) square feet of gross leasable area (gla) of nonresidential uses shall be provided within lot 2.
         c.   Parking Less Than Required: At the discretion of the director of development services, a less stringent parking calculation may be used provided the applicant can demonstrate that a parking rate less than the required will adequately provide for the site due to shared parking or offsetting peak use times.
      5.   Internal Site Lighting: Lighting within the site shall be designed to provide for a safe environment while minimizing light pollution onto adjoining properties.
         a.   All light levels shall fall at or below one foot-candle at the property line of planning unit G. Prior to site plan approval, the applicant shall submit a photometric plan which verifies adherence to these light levels.
         b.   Light fixtures within parking areas shall not exceed twenty five feet (25') in height as measured from the top of the grade to the top of the fixture. Extra care should be taken in the location of lights in the parking areas to minimize views of the overhead light fixtures, as well as the impacts of the lights on neighboring properties, especially the residential uses to the north and east.
         c.   No wall pack or flood lighting is allowed.
         d.   All lights shall have a cutoff feature to direct the light to its intended target. In addition to cutoff fixtures, additional measures to minimize light pollution, prevent hot spots, and reduce light glare may be required upon site review and may include, but are not limited to, lowering parking lot light levels after business hours, turning off lights not necessary for security purposes and implementing landscaping for light screening.
         e.   On file in the city are representations of the light fixtures that shall be provided within this development. Although slight deviations from the illustrations are permissible, the light fixtures shall be used as a unifying element throughout the development. (Ord. 1739, 3-26-2007)
