Document Description
1) A rezoning from Planned Development - Wetland Overlay (PD1764-WO) District to a revised Planned Development District with appropriate development standards to allow construction of a new private indoor and outdoor recreational facility on a 4.4-acre portion of the 119.5 acre San Rafael Airport property.
2) A Revision to the Master Use Permit to allow recreational uses in addition to the existing uses allowed by the current Master Use Permit.
3) An Environmental and Design Review Permit to allow the construction of a new recreation facility consisting of a 200-foot wide by 350-foot long by 38-foot high (at roof peak) 85,700-square-foot metal building with indoor sports fields and courts, one lighted 200-foot by 300-foot regulation sized outdoor soccer field, and unlighted outdoor warm-up field, a 184 space paved parking lot, 86 space unpaved overflow parking area, extension of a private roadway, site landscaping, site and building lighting and other associated site improvements.
The building includes a 14,400-square-foot mezzanine level that would provide a viewing area, meeting room, café, sports shops, administrative offices, and restrooms in addition to the indoor field and locker room areas on the main floor level. The building would be designed to meet the US Green Building Council standards, and flood-proofed to comply with US FEMA flood control requirements. The lightened outdoor field proposes to use synthetic turf, and a lighting system with four 23-foot and four 40-foot high light poles that use 50% less electricity and produce 50% less spill and glare. The project also includes 35,000 cubic yards of fill to raise the height of the access road, building pad and fields to 1.0 and 2.0 grade elevations.
