NATURE OF PROJECT/APPROVAL SOUGHT: Preliminary approval of plans for a 69 room luxury hotel. LOCATION: South side of El Paseo between Sage and Lupine Lanes. ZONE: C-1, S.P. BACKGROUND: On December 6, 1983 the planning commission approved the conditional use permit to allow construction and operation of a 59,200 square foot three-story hotel/restaurant on the south side of El Paseo midway between Lupine and Sage Lanes. The site is bordered on the east by Tai Ping Restaurant, on the west by a two-story office/retail building and on the south by a two-story residential condominium complex. ELEVATIONS: The hotel has been designed as a small luxury destination type hotel to compliment the El Paseo image. The elevations of the building indicate that the front section of the building facing El Paseo will be two-story (blending in with other two-story developments on El Paseo to the southeast and west of the site), with a three-story section in the midportion of the site ending with a two-story element that retains a sixteen foot setback. The elevations typically are a combination of recessed walkways and straight vertical walls containing window spaces. All elevations are within the thirty foot height limit prescribed by the general commercial height limitations both current and proposed. The third story can only be built if the ordinance amendment concerning hotel standards (ZOA 08-83) is adopted by the City Council. The architectural style is described by the applicant as Mediterranean stucco style with a tile roof. LANDSCAPING: A detailed landscape plan has not been provided at this time; however, areas to be landscaped are delineated on the site plan and on the model of the project. Considering the nature of the hotel and its design, landscaping will not be extensive but rather be intensive over smaller areas. The site is to be enclosed on the east and west by a six foot block wall while an eight foot wall is proposed across the rear (south). RECOMMENDATION: That the commission review the preliminary plans for Case No. 200 C, Fred Barman for L' Palme Hotel to determine acceptability. /pa (:�f4'1 rQ)F P:ACLH DDGSCR"T 43 273 laft0 9 fteP Lauum, Pagm Does 4e 2=80 F•f;tit Nl.
