3 – Project Description <br />Draft Environmental Impact Report February 2021 <br />14800 W. Schulte Road Logistics Center 3-5 <br />3.4.2 Parking, Site Access, and On-Site and Off-Site Circulation <br />Improvements <br />Single loaded truck bays would be located on the south and north sides of Buildings A and B and on the west side <br />of Building C. As such, all loading areas would face the interior of the Project site and would not be visible from <br />adjacent public streets. Building A would provide 42 loading docks, Building B would provide 43 loading docks, and <br />Building C would provide 30 loading docks. Paved passenger vehicle parking areas would be provided along the <br />northern and southeastern portions of the Project site near the frontage of Schulte Road and Quality Road. <br />Truck/trailer parking would be provided in between Buildings A and B. Gated entry is proposed at key dock access <br />routes for each building. In total, the Project site would provide 111 stalls for trailers and 522 standard parking <br />spaces for passenger vehicles and trailers. <br />Access to the Project site would be provided via two driveways: <br />• Driveway 1 on Schulte Road: 30-foot-wide, full-access (passenger cars only) driveway <br />• Driveway 2 on Schulte Road: 50-foot-wide, full-access (passenger cars and trucks) driveway <br />To facilitate adequate on-site circulation and sufficient site access for passenger vehicles and trucks, and to ensure <br />efficient off-site circulation on nearby roadway facilities, the Project would involve street improvements on Schulte <br />Road, including the addition of a right-turn lane on eastbound Schulte Road for both driveways, addition of <br />westbound left-turn lanes along Schulte Road for both driveways, and widening a portion of westbound Schulte <br />Road. These improvements would be constructed to accommodate the future build-out condition of Schulte Road. <br />In addition, the Project would include internal drive aisles to facilitate on-site circulation. Emergency access would <br />be provided via the two driveways on Schulte Road and a 25-foot-wide driveway on Quality Drive. This driveway <br />would be exclusively for emergency access. <br />3.4.3 Design, Landscaping, and Lighting <br />The Project’s design employs a variety of architectural strategies to create a contemporary, unified, and high -quality <br />logistics center environment. Building facades would feature a complementary neutral color palette and a variety <br />of building materials, similar to other industrial development located throughout the region. The three buildings and <br />associated improvements were designed with strong and appropriately scaled architectural and landsca pe <br />elements. Building elevations include vertical and horizontal elements that would break up the overall massing of <br />the buildings (Figure 3-7, Representative Architectural Elevations, and Figures 3-8A through 3-8C, Representative <br />Architectural Renderings). <br />The Project would feature a variety of trees, shrubs, plants, and land covers throughout the Project site to soften <br />views of the Project site and to enhance the visual quality of the Project. A variety of development features would <br />be provided through site design (e.g., building orientation, screening, and placement of service areas), architecture <br />(e.g., mass, scale, form, style, material, and color), and streetscape elements (e.g., lighting and paving materials).
