Title
St. Michael School Expansion, 1208 11th Ave SE, 25-4050
Report
Project Information:
St Michael Parish proposes a new expanded school building to meet the growing size of the school and increased demand for enrollment. The new project is proposed as a two-story building and is accompanied by site circulation and access improvements. All updates are intended to help meet the increasing needs of the school. The new building is roughly situated on the same footprint as a portion of the original school that will be demolished prior to new construction commencing (see site plan for specifics). Along with additional classroom space, the new building will also provide a larger administration and entry area as well as an expanded library. Additionally, a new one-way drop off lane is proposed to be constructed along the west edge of the property. This drop off lane will help provide adequate space for the expanded student capacity while helping to alleviate traffic congestion entering and exiting the lower parking lot off of 11th Ave. The new drop off lane will exit onto 10th Ave at the location of an existing auxiliary parking lot exit (the parking stalls in the auxiliary lot will be removed as part of the circulation updates). The applicant acknowledges that the exit onto 10th Ave may be restricted to right out only, but is interested in any additional feedback.
