banking functions at this site. In so doing, it would give the bank the option to either relocate some of its operations or to provide another branch that would be proximate to the University and this area of the community. The visibility and accessibility of this area make this site quite attractive for office use. At the same time, because of some of the surrounding residences, the proposed office or bank use would be more benign and less noxious than a retail or light industrial activity. If the request is approved, the Applicant would construct a single- story office building, consisting of approximately 7,500 square feet. The height of the structure is not expected to exceed forty-five (45) feet, the maximum allowable by the Zoning Code. While higher than normal for a single-story building, this added height is designed to provide for the option to accommodate a mezzanine within the structure to accommodate office and related uses. (Figure 4) As proposed, there would be a minimum of thirty six (36) parking stalls, including two (2) handicapped stalls, provided on-site. This would be more than the Zoning Code's parking requirement of twenty five (25) stalls for a 7,500+/- square foot building, as it would provide some accommodation for employee parking. (Figure 3) The Zoning Code requires a minimum setback of fifteen (15) feet from the front OR rear yard; and none forthe side yard, except where it adjoins a residential zone, in which case the residential zone setbacks must be used. In this case, the adjoining properties are zoned RS-10, and the setbacks are ten (10) feet. As proposed, the building would be setback no less than twenty (20) feet from Lanikaula Street and no less than thirty five (35) feet from Kinoole Street. Along the sides, the setbacks would be in excess of forty (40) feet. As such, the setbacks would be consistent with the Code. There would be two (2) full-movement accesses, one from Kinoole Street and the other from Lanikaula Street. They would be positioned furthest from the intersection. There will also be a drive- through ATM, with ingress from Lanikaula Street and egress at Kinoole Street Landscaping consistent with Planning Department Rule Na. 17 would be installed around the perimeter of the subject site.
