www.castanet.net/edition/news-story-35980-1-.htm#35980Lake City Casino expansion by Wayne Moore - Story: 35980 Dec 17, 2007 / 5:00 am Lake City Casino is looking to nearly double its current floor space. The company is asking City Council to issue a development permit that would add nearly 1700 square metres to the existing casino and another 71 parking stalls to the existing parking structure. The expansion is designed to replace the existing bridge structure over the access driveway to the Private Residents Club. Construction will increase the size of the bridge structure and convert the bridge structure to usable floor area. A portion of the top of the existing parking structure will be redeveloped with the casino expansion. The report for council indicates about 17 parking stalls will be lost with the construction. "Those lost stalls will be replaced by construction of a new third parking level addition, which will add approximately 71 stalls," says Planning Supervisor, Shelley Gambacort. "Even with the addition of one level of parking to the existing structure, there will be a shortfall of approximately 12 parking stalls, which the developer is proposing to provide cash in lieu." Gambacort says 'Payment In Lieu' allows for the payment of $7,500 per parking stall. The Planning Department and Advisory Planning Commission both support the application.
