PROPOSED COMPOSITE PLAN
Meijer Outparcel
SW Corner Martin/Sawmill Rd
2.07 acres
David J. Glimcher Co.
Planned Commerce District (Dublin Code § 153.058)
revised February 13, 2001
COMPOSITE PLAN (Dublin Code § 153.058(E)(1)
Composite Plan Contents
(a) The general development character of the tract proposed for rezoning is
reflected in Exhibit "A", an overview of the larger Sawmill Road/SR 161 area. The tract
here proposed for rezoning is a 2+ acre site which is presently the NE corner of the
Meijer Store. The current Meijer site totals about 42.67 acres in Columbus (Commercial
Planned Development District), plus 5.267 acres along the south side of Martin Road in
the City of Dublin, presently zoned Planned Unit Development District.
Generally, the Sawmill Road area, both in the City of Dublin and in the City of
Columbus is presently developed in retail uses, some of significant scale. The location of
existing buildings is reflected on Exhibit "A".
Building size is generally limited by the parking requirements and the Landscape
Code though the Development Standards Text limits density to 6,000 sf per acre.
Anticipated size for a structure under this proposal is around 11,250 sf. The types of
tenants anticipated will fall within the broad definition of retail uses as permitted in the
Development Standards Text. Presently anticipated uses will be a sit down restaurant, a
copy store and a wireless phone store.
Since this is a presently developed site and there are no new curb cuts anticipated,
the frontage along Martin Road and Sawmill Roads will remain similar to the present.
However, additional landscaping will be required to meet Dublin Code. Further, a
landscaped perimeter within the present parking lot will define the limits of the site.
Exhibit "B", a preliminary site plan, indicates generally Applicant's view of the
anticipated layout, at this point, of the site.
There are no "open space buffers", "no build zones" or major pedestrian or
bikeway routes. As stated, there is a landscape island around the perimeter of the site.
As stated in the Development Standards Text, the pavement will not encroach closer to
Sawmill or Martin than is presently the case. There will also be landscape perimeter
treatment along the south and west boundaries of the site.
(b) Sanitary sewer service will probably be provided by an 8" line along the north
side of the site. Similarly, an 8" water line along Martin Road will probably also be
utilized. Surface water drainage is presently part of an existing, developed system
draining the present pazking lot; an 18" line is along the north part ~of the site and drains '
to the south. These forecasts are preliminary and will need to be worked out through
discussions with the City Engineer.

Composite Plan Text
Version of February 13, 2002
Page 1 O ri Z,
Engineering studies are not necessary due to the developed nature of the site and
the immediate proximity of services.
(c) Traffic circulation is determined by the overall plans which have been
implemented in the Sawmill Corridor by the Cities of Dublin and Columbus. All access
to this site will be from the Meijer site utilizing curb cuts the Meijer store utilizes on .
Martin and Sawmill Roads.
(d) Development of the site will be in a single phase commencing as soon as
`r.. zoning and Development Plan approval is achieved. Tenant move in planned for summer
of 2002.
(e) The general area is largely developed at this point with retail being the
predominant use along Sawmill Road, both in the City of Columbus and the City of
Dublin. Development in both cities varies from smaller retail uses such as banks and
stand alone restaurants to "big box" uses of significant scale.
The 1997 Dublin Community Plan in its Existing Land Use Plan (Map 5) shows
this site as "retail." The Future Land Use Map (Map 8) shows the site as
"nonresidential", acategory applied to most developed land. The implication would
appear to be that "retail" is the ancitipated land use.
(f) Applicant has an option to purchase.the site contingent on this rezoning
application. An authorization by the landowner to pursue zoning has been signed and is
in the file of this application.
(g) Applicant anticipates no new deed restrictions will be placed on the property.

Re: .Sawmill Road- Martin Road Bus Stop Relocation
Development of Meijer Outparcel
Dear Mr. Hutchinson:
This letter is in follow-up to our site meeting this morning and serves to summarize our discussions
and agreements relative to the relocation of the existing bus stop, which is located on the northern
portion of the existing Meijers parking lot. Please be advised that Meijers must approve the
relocation of the bus stop. We hope to have Meijers' approval soon and will notify you.
As discussed, COTA will move the existing bus stop sign and trash receptacle to the new location.
These are the only physical modifications that are required. COTA will also take care of all of the
internal paperwork and costs to reprint route maps etc.
We «~ill start construction on or about July 1, 2002. Your relocation work should be completed
prior to this date if possible. Please find enclosed, 3 full sized, 40-scale copies of the existing
parking lot layout with the existing and proposed bus stop and route. I trust that this letter
accurately summarizes our discussions.
Respectfully,

6. ConceptlRezoning Plan 01-1322 -Meijer Out parcel
Location: 2.238 acres located on the southwest corner of Sawmill and Martin Roads.
Existing Zoning: PUD, Planned Unit Development District.
Request: Review and approval of a rezoning to PCD, Planned Commerce District under
the provisions of Section 153.058.
Proposed Use: A 10,380 square foot retail center, with up to five tenants and 113
parking spaces to replace a section of the Meijer's parking lot.
Applicant: Meijer Realty Co., 2929 Walker Avenue, Grand Rapids, Michigan 49544;
c/o Thomas N. Brigdon, 88 West Main Street, Columbus, Ohio 43215.
Staff Contact: Corey Theuerkauf, Planner.
BACKGROUND:
This is a PCD, Planned Commerce District rezoning application for 2.238 acres located on the
southwest corner of Martin and Sawmill Roads. The site is currently zoned PUD, Planned Unit
Development District, and is located in the Corridor Development District, CDD. The site is part
of a larger commercial and multi-family 11.45 acre PUD that was rezoned in 1985. Generally,
the larger site is zoned for the northern edge of the Meijer parking lot, openspace and swimming
pool for the Arbors of Dublin (both developments located over 80 percent in Columbus). The
proposal carves out 2.238 acres of parking lot fora 12,000 square foot multi-tenant building and
124 parking spaces.
The Planned Commerce District, PCD, composite plan (rezoning) establishes the permissible
density, development standards, and layout of the site. The Commission is to make a
recommendation on this rezoning request. The rezoning ordinance will then return to City
Council for a public hearing and final vote. Atwo-thirds vote of City Council is required to
override a negative recommendation by the Commission. If approved the rezoning will become
effective 30 days following Council approval. The proposal will also be subject to future review
of a development plan by the Commission prior to construction. Section 153.058(E) establishes
criteria for composite plan approval:
• The proposed development is consistent is all respects with the purpose, intent and applicable ~
standards of the zoning ordinance;
• The proposed development is in conformity with appropriate comprehensive planning.
• The proposed development advances the general welfare of the municipality and immediate
vicinity.
• The relationships of buildings and structures to each other and to such other facilities
maintains the image of Dublin as a planned community.
• The acceptability of setbacks, distances between buildings, yard space, suitability of open
space systems, traffic accessibility and other elements having a bearing on the overall accept-
ability of the development plans, shall contribute to the orderly development of land within
the City.
• The location of access points shall maintain the function of adjacent thoroughfare by relation
to existing access points on surrounding development, the street patterns, the thoroughfare
plan and the intensity of proposed uses.
• The development within this district shall provide safe, convenient, and non-conflicting
circulation systems for motorist, bicyclist, and pedestrians.
• The plan provides for the coordination and integration of individually designed buildings into
one planned district.
• That by deed restrictions or otherwise a sufficient assurance that once development
commences, later phases will be consistent with those already in place.
Dublin Planning and Zoning Commission
Staff Report -April 11, 2002

CONSIDERATIONS:
Site Characteristics:
• The 2.238 acres are located on the southwest corner of Martin and Sawmill Roads. The site is
rectangular in shape with approximately 300 feet of frontage on Sawmill Road and 380 feet on
Martin Road. The site is generally flat,. and developed as 173 parking spaces for the Meijer
Store located immediately to the south.
The site is bounded on the south by the Columbus Meijer site. To the north across Martin
Road is Sportmart zoned PCD, Planned Commerce District. To the west is the remaining
portion of the Meijer parking lot, zoned PUD. To the east, across Sawmill Road in Columbus
is a strip mall, zoned CPD, Commercial Planned Development.
Community Plan Issues:
• The preferred land use identified in the Community Plan is non-residential and does not
indicate it being developed. The site was zoned PUD for a commercial parking lot prior to the
1997 Community Plan. The Thoroughfare Plan indicates a recommended right-of--way width
of 60 feet for Martin Road and 160 feet for Sawmill Road. The plan also identifies Martin
Road as a scenic corridor, the site does not comply with the recommended setback.
• The existing parking lot setback is 25 feet along Sawmill Road and 30 feet along Martin Road.
• The Community Plan encourages transit friendly development. Cost-effective bus service
requires a bus stop location in relatively close proximity, to serve several developments. There
is a current bus stop on this corner and will be removed. Staff has contacted COTA, and
recommends that the developer coordinate the development with COTA, so that a suitable
alternative location can be identified. COTA officials are satisfied working with the developer
to relocate the bus stop.
• The Community Plan identifies points of entry into the City of Dublin as "Gateways". The
current proposal includes a gateway corner. The plans do not articulate a feature for this
location. Staff recommends that a plan be submitted.
Site Layout:
~ The proposal would totally redevelop this site as a new commercial development. It includes a
new freestanding 12,000-square foot, one-story retail building on the corner. Parking for 124
cars is located to the front and rear (east and west) of the building. The specific tenants have
not been identified at this time. The existing PUD final development plan for the balance of
the parking lot will also need to be revised and resubmitted because it will be reconfigured to
facilitate the new development.
• The proposal does not include a bikepath system or sidewalk along the frontages. Every
development in Dublin is now required to construct a sidewalk along its frontage. Staff
recommends installing a sidewalk on the south side of Martin Road for future western
extension to Dublin Center Drive.
• The building will face Sawmill Road. The rear of the building faces the Meijer Garden
center. The building is setback from Martin Road approximately 85 feet and 215 feet from
Sawmill Road.
• A dumpster is proposed to the west of the primary structure. The plans do not articulate a
screening plan.
Dublin Planning and Zoning Commission
Staff Report -April 11, 2002
Page 29
Access Considerations/Traffic Management:
• Access to the site is provided exclusively through the existing Meijer parking lot. This site has
frontage on Martin and Sawmill Roads, but it will not have direct access to either. The Meijer
lot has an existing full-service curb cut along Martin Road, just west of the site. A shared
access agreement will be needed, but this has not been submitted. No additional access points
are proposed. There are three connecting driveways between this site and the Meijer lots.
• All sight visibility triangles are adequate.
Development Standards:
• The proposed permitted uses in the proposed PCD development text include: general and
professional offices, medical offices, retail commercial, financial services, personal services,
restaurants, private and public institutional uses. The proposed conditional uses include:
outdoor dinning area, restaurant patios not to exceed 400 square feet, automated teller
machines, and drive-thru banks. Staff recommends removing drive-thru banks from the
conditional use section.
• The proposed minimum building setback along Martin Road is 30 feet, staff recommends
increasing the building setback to 85 feet, to match the conceptual site plan. The proposed
building setback along Sawmill Road is 64 feet. The proposed pavement setback along Martin
Road is 25 feet and 30 feet along Sawmill Road. These reflect the current setbacks for the
Meijer parking lot.
• The proposed height limit is 35 feet. Staff recommends a maximum height of 30 feet as
measured by the highest point on the proposed building elevation. Parking and loading
requirements, service courts and loading docks, and screening of service structures will be
screened per Code. Screening of service structures will incorporate material elements and
colors form the primary structure. The plans do not articulate the elements.
• The maximum impervious lot coverage as identified in the proposal is 80 percent. Code is
generally 70 percent, staff recommends reducing the maximum lot coverage to 70 percent.
The maximum density of structures shall not exceed 6,000 square feet per acre or 13,428
square feet for this entire site. The text limits the maximum square footage for restaurants to
3,550 square feet.
Landscaping/Tree Preservation:
• A landscape inspection was performed on the Dublin portion of the site on March 18, 2002.
A large number of trees are missing and the existing mounding along Sawmill Road and
Martin Road is less than three feet. Some of the evergreen trees have been limbed up. These
landscape deficiencies will have to be corrected no later than October 15, 2002. The infested
hawthorns, missing red maples, and missing white pines should be replaced with hardier
species.
• The development text acknowledges that the existing mounding along both Sawmill and
Martin Roads is not to Code standards. The use of evergreen shrubs to help increase the
height of the parking lot screening should be investigated at time of the development plan.
• The text alludes to the elimination of the existing split rail fence along Sawmill Road. Staff
believes that if the split rail fence is eliminated it should be replaced with the wrought
iron brick pilaster treatment used elsewhere on Sawmill Road to serve as a unifying element
for the City.
• The text requires a landscape element delineating this portion of the site from the remaining
Meijer site. The proposed area will meet the parking lot screening requirements of the Code
(3.5-foot high opaque screen plus one deciduous shade tree per 40 feet) and be a minimum
width of eight feet.
A
_ Dublin Planning and Zoning Commission
Staff Report -April 11, 2002
Page 30
• There are protected trees (trees that are six inches or greater in diameter) within. the parking
lot. Any protected trees on the site that are removed or damaged during construction will have
to be replaced per Code, on an inch-for-inch basis. A tree survey should be prepared prior to
the rezoning being scheduled for City Council. The tree preservation plan and tree
replacement plans will be required at time of the final development plan.
Utilities and Storm Water:
• Water service is provided by an existing eight-inch water main along the north side of Martin
Road. This will be adaquate to service the proposed development. An extension south will
` require boring beneath Martin Road. Open cutting of roads is prohibited.
• Sanitary service is provided by an existing 8-inch sanitary sewer main, along the south side of
Martin Road.
• A preliminary stormwater management study has not been submitted to the City. Stormwater
management regulations will be required should be revised accordance with Engineering
Division staff comments
• A preliminary stormwater management plan has not been submitted. The stormwater
management plan will be required to adhere to the regulations.
Architecture:
• The proposed building is a rectangular strip mall facility that incorporates a uniform storefront
window treatment along the eastern elevation and incorporates stone, brick, stucco and
dimensional shingles as a material palette. The eastern elevation incorporates three projections
clad in stone and brick utilized on the recessions along with a uniform storefront window
treatment. Staff recommends revising the building elevation to incorporate a uniform window
treatment design. The southern and northern facade incorporates a gable projection replicating
the eastern facade, also clad in stone. The balance of the facade incorporates a stone water
course and brick treatment up to the .mid-line of the facade with the balance of stucco being
utilized. The western elevation incorporates two gable projections clad in stone with the
recessed portion in stucco. The remaining portion of the facade incorporates the stone water
course and brick and stucco treatment.
• The roof structure is a false mansard surrounding a flat roof with a well in the center. This
type of roofing structure is intended to screen mechanicals. The mansard will be clad in
"weathered wood" or other earth tone asphalt dimensional shingle material. Staff recommends
modifying the text to state "True dimensional" shingle material, rather than asphalt
dimensional shingle material.
Signs/Lighting:
• A uniform sign package is proposed that includes a maximum of five wall signs, no more than
one per tenant. The signs will be the same size and designed for all tenants, to give the
building a coordinated look. They will be 36 square feet in area regardless of the size of the
tenancy. They will utilize individually mounted, internally illuminated channel letters. No
sign mounting hardware shall be drilled or cut into stone facing; if located on a stone face,
mountings shall be placed in the mortar joints. Signs are only permitted on the eastern
elevation. They meet the 15-foot height restriction.
• Lighting as indicated in the text will be cut-off fixtures not to exceed a 28-foot height and will
be dark in color. The Dublin Lighting Guidelines will be followed.

Staff Report -April 11, 2002 "
Page 31
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
As amended, the proposed development is characterized by high quality architecture, a modest
sign package, increases the green space on site and would create a new gateway into Dublin as
outlined in the Community .Plan. The use and its intensity are suitable for this particular area.
Staff recommends approval with 15 conditions:
Conditions:
1) That the text be modified to state "True dimensional" asphalt shingles rather than
asphalt dimensional shingle material;
2) That the text be modified to reduce the maximum allowable lot coverage to 70
percent;
3) That the text be modified to reduce the maximum allowable height to 30 feet as
measured by the highest point on the proposed building elevation;
4) That the text be modified to increase the minimum building setback along Martin
Road to 85 feet;
5) That the text be modified to eliminate drive-thru banks as a conditional use;
6) All missing or dead plant material, as noted in the landscape inspection of March 18,
2002 be replaced by October 15, 2002;
7) That the existing mounding be augmented, as shown on the development plan, with
evergreen plant material to achieve a 3.5-foot high screen, subject to staff approval;
8) That if the split rail fence is removed, that it be replaced with the Sawmill Road
wrought iron fence brick pilaster treatment;
9) That a tree survey be prepared prior to the scheduling of the rezoning with City
Council; subject to staff approval;
10) That a tree preservation plan and tree replacement plan be submitted with the
development plan.
11) That a gateway feature plan be submitted;
12) That the building elevations be modified to incorporate a uniform window treatment
design;
13) That a storm water management plan be submitted to the satisfaction of the City ~
Engineer;
14) That a sidewalk be constructed along the south side of Martin Road; and
15) That a revised final development plan be submitted. for the reconfiguration for the
parking area on the original PUD.
Bases:
1) This proposal meets the PCD requirements of Section 153.058 of the Zoning Code.
2) The proposed development is consistent with the adjacent developments.
3) The proposal provides architecture that is synonymous with Dublin development and
provides an area for a gateway feature into the City.

6. Rezoning 01-1322 - Meijer's Store Outlot
Corey Theuerkauf said the applicant has worked through several plan and text revisions. He said
the staff report reflected several outdated numbers. Mr. Theuerkauf said the proposed building is
11,429 square feet for up to five tenants, with 124 parking spaces. He said this is a request for a
rezoning from a PUD to a PCD, with permitted uses including all types of office, retail, financial
services, restaurants, and institutions. The conditional uses are listed in the development text,
and these include outdoor dining of 400 square feet, ATM, and drive-thru banks.
Mr. Theuerkauf said the 1985 PUD covers 11.45 acres along the south side of Martin Road. It
encompassed open space and swimming pool for the Arbors of Dublin and parking for Meijer's .
Mr. Theuerkauf showed several slides. The 2.238-acre site is on the southwest corner of
Sawmill Road and Martin Road. It is now zoned PUD for parking spaces for the Meijer store,
which is directly to the south in the City of Columbus.
Mr. Theuerkauf said he reviewed the store parking requirements with Columbus employees.
This corner has 173 parking spaces, and the Meijer store needs about 832 spaces. The site
actually has 1,156 spaces. He said the surrounding area has developed as a major retail corridor.
He said COTA has a bus stop at this location, and COTA was asked to comment on this
application. He said there might be some turning radii problems with the landscaping island
proposed, and COTA requested that the applicant work with them to find an alternative location.
No new curb cuts will be added. The site will use the existing Meijer's driveways exclusively.
The proposed 11,500 square foot building is located in the middle of the site. The plan has 124
spaces which meets Dublin's Code, with the majority in the front along Sawmill Road.
Mr. Theuerkauf said this is a composite plan, and it needs to be clear that the building elevations
shown are a commitment, not merely an idea of what it might look like. The building setback
proposed will be 64 feet on Sawmill Road and 30 feet on Martin Road; the pavement setback
will be 25 feet and 30 feet respectively. Staff recommends keeping the pavement setback as it is
now, but the building setback should be increased to as shown on the composite plan.
~ No open cutting of roads is permitted. There is not enough increase in impervious surface that
would affect the storm water run-off. There is no sidewalk currently proposed on the site plan.
Staff requests incorporating a sidewalk along the south side of Martin Road. It should be placed
with sensitivity to the mature landscaping in the approved 1985 plan.
He noted that the recent landscaping inspection of the site revealed some missing plant material.
It should be replaced by October of this year. A "gateway" landscape feature is proposed at the
Dublin boundary, but no plans have been submitted. Martin Road is a "scenic road" in the
Community Plan. The staff believes this commercial area does not need a 200-foot setback.
He showed the proposed building elevations. The text is very explicit on materials, and the final
development will look very much like the submitted elevations. He said there will be stone
accents on the vertical projections, stone water tables, brick in the back, stucco accents which
will function as a sign band, and stucco on the rear elevation. The mansard roof will hide all the
mechanicals. Staff recommends using a true dimensional weathered wood shingle.
Dublin Planning and Zoning Commission
Minutes -April 11, 2002
Page 20
He said the applicant will create a consistent storefront treatment so that there are not alternating
treatments. The restaurant will not exceed 3,350 square feet.
Mr. Theuerkauf said staff recommends approval with 16 conditions, as modified below:
1) That the text be modified to require "true dimensional" asphalt shingles rather than asphalt
dimensional shingle material;
2) That the text be modified to reduce the maximum allowable lot coverage to 70 percent;
3) That the text be modified to reduce the maximum allowable height to 30 feet as measured by ~
the highest point on the proposed building elevation;
4) That the text be modified to increase the minimum building setback along Martin Road to 85
feet;
5) That the text be modified to eliminate drive-thru banks as a conditional use;
6) All missing or dead plant material, as noted in the landscape inspection of March 18, 2002 be
replaced by October 15, 2002;
7) That the existing mounding be augmented with evergreen plant material to achieve a 3.5-foot
high screen, subject to staff approval;
8) That if the split rail fence is removed, that it be replaced with the Sawmill Road wrought iron
fencelbrick pilaster treatment;
9) That a tree survey be prepared prior to the scheduling of the rezoning with City Council;
subject to staff approval;
10) That a tree preservation plan and tree replacement plan be submitted with the development
plan;
11) That a gateway feature plan be submitted;
12) That the building elevations be modified to incorporate a uniform window treatment design;
13) That a storm water management plan be submitted to the satisfaction of the City Engineer;
14) That a sidewalk be constructed along the south side of Martin Road;
15) That a revised final development plan be submitted for the reconfiguration for the parking
area on the original PUD; and
16) That the proposed landscape plan, as attached to the development text, include what is
proposed on the site plan.
Chris Cline, attorney, said this 2.24 acres is Meijer's excess parking. He said the text limits the
density to 6,000 square feet of building area per acre. Atypical retail site is about 10,000 square
feet per acre. Mr. Cline said the text sets very high standards. The site will have a defined
landscape edge. The East Dublin Civic Association requested neighborhood uses. The expected
uses include asit-down restaurant, coffee shop, and a cellular telephone store. There will not be
drive-thru restaurants, sand volleyball courts, or speakers. Outdoor dining is a conditional use
and limited to 400 square feet.
John Hardt, Andrews Architects, clarified that their southern and western edges have new
landscape islands that are not part of the present Meijer parking lot. The current lot coverage
exceeds 90 percent, and this reduces it to 69 percent. The corner serves as an entry point for
Dublin, it will have materials, massing, and scale expected in better developments.
He said Dublin's sign code regulates the size of tenant signs according to their storefront length.
He said in this case, the individual storefronts on this building vary slightly, but the signs will be
the same size. The size shown is appropriate for the scale of the building.

Mr. Cline said if this is approved, they will file the final development plan immediately.
Mr. Ritchie said this proposal improves this very prominent and underutilized corner of the
parking lot. He liked the building design, but he has not seen any plans for the entry. The
Community Plan calls fora "gateway" at the corner of SR 161 and Sawmill Road.
Mr. Theuerkauf said the applicant was providing an area on the corner for the City to create the
gateway. He said staff requested that the applicant design and build the feature. It does not need
to be elaborate but cannot impede the sight triangle.
Mr. Theuerkauf said there are provisions in the text that prohibit any new curb cuts.
Mr. Ritchie asked where in the development proposal were the locations of outdoor restaurants
provided. Mr. Theuerkauf said if there was one, it would be on the east elevation, facing
Sawmill Road. There aren't any provisions or dashed areas shown for that.
Mr. Theuerkauf said there is a "Welcome to Dublin" sign with daffodils on the north side of
Martin Road. It could be relocated. He presented a schematic gateway plan.
Mr. Cline said this is more detail that is usually submitted at the rezoning stage. The gateway is
a development plan issue. He agreed to commit to the gateway at this time.
Mr. Theuerkauf asked if the restaurant square footage would be reduced to compensate for the
400 square feet of outdoor seating to meet the parking requirements. Mr. Cline said if there is
outdoor seating, the restaurant needs to be smaller, or one of the office buildings would need to
be smaller to meet the parking requirement. He said outdoor seating is not proposed at this time,
it would be subject to a separate approval as a conditional use.
Mr. Gerber .asked why staff recommends removing drive-thru banks from the conditional use
section of the text. Ms. Clarjce said drive-thru stacking does not work with this site plan, and this
site plan becomes binding as the composite plan. She said for adrive-thru to work properly, a
substantially different site plan would be needed.
Mr. Gerber asked why there are often dead trees and lack of landscape compliance; he wondered
if this indicates a code enforcement or property owner maintenance problem. Mr. Theuerkauf
responded that Dublin has two landscape inspectors, and they cover all of Dublin's commercial
sites once every five years. A lot of landscape degradation can happen in five years. When a
new project comes in, that also triggers a site inspection.
Mr. Gerber said the look and concept are great, but it should not take five years to get landscape
compliance. Mr. Theuerkauf said it will need to be done as part of this construction process, and
then it is the property owner's responsibility to maintain it. He said this plan changes the
existing final development plan for the northern part of the parking lot. That final development
plan, for the other Meijer parking in Dublin, needs to be resubmitted for Commission review. A
letter was sent to Meijer about its approved landscape plan with a date to achieve compliance.
Mr. Theuerkauf said the restaurant is limited to 3,550 square feet. Mr. Cline agreed.

Mr. Sprague asked if this proposed development would . have any detrimental effect on
Columbus. Mr. Theuerkauf said no, but this corner will modify the circular route.
Mr. Sprague asked if tents or garden structures outdoors were considered in the parking
calculation. Mr. Theuerkauf said the store requires 832 parking spaces. This eliminates 173
spaces, leaving 984 total spaces.
Mr. Sprague asked about the uniform treatment of the windows. Mr. Theuerkauf said the
building should have consistent windows, not as shown. Mr. Sprague and Mr. Messineo both
preferred the more detailed windows.
Mr. Messineo asked if Meijer's is the applicant. Mr. Cline said he represents the developer, the
Glimcher Company, who is in contract to purchase the land from Meijer's.
Mr. Messineo referred to the letter from the East Side Civic Association which supported drive-
thru windows for banks. Mr. Cline said that pre-dated the staff request to eliminate them. Mr.
Messineo said the development looked great.
Mr. Sprague noted the gateway received a favorable reception from the Commission.
Mr. Zimmerman commended the applicant on working with the civic association. He liked the
architecture, especially the fact that it is detailed on all four sides.
Mr. Theuerkauf said there already is a sidewalk along the Sawmill Road frontage.
Mr. Messineo said he liked this concept as a community addition. It is crisp and has uniformity.
Mr. Zimmerman asked about the window issue. Ms. Clarke said when the staff reviewed the
plan, it had one type of windows for the restaurant, and a standard vertical storefront system for
all other tenants. She said in other shopping centers, restaurant tenants often want a distinctive
look, one that does not fit in with the established architecture. She, said staff wants the center's
architecture to be set and not renegotiable with every tenant change. Ms. Clarke said a balanced
window treatment would also be satisfactory.
r
Mr. Zimmerman asked if the windows had to be decided this evening. He thought the window
treatment shown provided more interest to the building. Mr. Theuerkauf said it needs to address
how windows will be treated.if the plan tonight were preferred.
Mr. Cline suggested that the window treatments be symmetrical so that different windows could
be used on both ends of the building.
Mr. Messineo suggested a condition: That the building elevations be modified to incorporate a
symmetrical window treatment, or as approved at the development plan. Mr. Cline agreed.
Mr. Gerber made the motion to approve this rezoning application because it meets the PCD
requirements, is consistent with adjacent developments, and provides architecture that is
synonymous with Dublin as well as a gateway feature into the City, with 16 conditions:
1) That the text be modified to state "true dimensional" asphalt shingles rather than asphalt
dimensional shingle material;
" Dublin Planning and Zoning Commission
Minutes -April 11, 2002

2) That the text be modified to reduce the maximum allowable lot coverage to 70 percent;
3) That the text be modified to reduce the maximum allowable height to 30 feet, as measured
by the highest point on the proposed building elevation;
4) That the text be modified to increase the minimum building setback along Martin Road to
85 feet;
5) That the text be modified to eliminate drive-thru banks as a conditional use;
6) All missing or dead plant material, as noted in the landscape inspection-of March 18, 2002,
be replaced by October 15, 2002;
7) That the existing mounding be augmented with evergreen plant material to achieve a 3.5-
foot high screen, subject to staff approval;
8) That, if the split rail fence is removed, it be replaced with the Sawmill Road wrought iron
fence/brick pilaster treatment;
9) That a tree survey be prepared prior to the scheduling of the rezoning with City Council,
subject to staff approval;
10) That a tree preservation plan and tree replacement plan be submitted with the development
plan.
11) That a gateway feature plan be submitted;
12) That the development text regarding building elevations be modified to require a
symmetrical window treatment design, or as approved by the Commission with the
development plan;
13) That a storm water management plan be submitted to the satisfaction of the City Engineer;
14) That a sidewalk be constructed along the south side of Martin Road;
15) That a revised final development plan be submitted for the reconfiguration for the parking
area on the original PUD; and
16) That the proposed landscape plan, as attached to the development text, include the
southern and northern landscape islands.
Following some clarification and discussion of Condition 12, the text needed to be revised to
reflect a symmetrical window treatment. Mr. Zimmerman seconded the motion. Mr. Cline
agreed to all the above conditions, including modified Condition 12. The vote was as follows:
Mr. Sprague, yes; Mr. Ritchie, yes; Mr. Messineo, yes; Mr. Zimmerman, yes; and Mr. Gerber,
yes. (Approved 5-0.)
The meeting was adjourned at 11:35 p.m.
