ADJOURNMENT The Architectural Review Commission adjourned at 2:09 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Melinda Gonzalez, Senior Administrative Assistant Recording Secretary ATTEST: Nick Melloni, Principal Planner Secretary APPROVED BY ARC: __/__/2023 Page 8 of 62 CITY OF PALM DESERT DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMISSION MEMORANDUM To: Honorable Chair and Members of the Commission From: Carlos Flores, Senior Planner Date: October 24, 2023 Case No: SARC23-0008 Subject: Consideration to approve a Sign Design Review for four (4) new exterior business identification wall signs including a height exception for a new commercial building located at 73611 Highway 111. BACKGROUND The Applicant, Chandler Signs, is requesting approval of four (4) new exterior business identification wall signs for a new commercial building located at 73611 Highway 111. The wall signs will service the incoming tenant, Mechanics Bank. The signs will consist of face-lit channel letters and logos mounted directly to the building fascia. Each elevation has a different sign area and height. On September 12, 2023, planning staff presented the project to the ARC for design review. Following discussion, the ARC continued the item with a 5-0 vote, (Commissioner McAuliffe and Commissioner Sanchez absent) with the following comments: 1) Sign E should be revised to one line. 2) Consider a different location for Sign B, additionally, reconsider scale of sign in relation to the identified alternate location for placement. 3) Applicant shall revisit the scale and proportion of the business logo located on the entry doors. Subsequent to the meeting, the Applicant updated their plans and made the following revisions to address these comments: 1. Every proposed sign is now two lines instead of one line. The sign area of each sign has changed as a result. 2. Sign B has been relocated to a different location on the north elevation and is now at a height of 9’ from grade, as compared to a height of 25’-4” from the previous proposal. 3. Business logo on the entry door has changed from a width of 7” to 3”. 4. Signs C and E have been relocated higher on the building.

Property Description: The project site is a 0.41-acre parcel containing one (1) 3,830 square-foot commercial building on the southwest corner of Highway 111 and Larkspur Lane located at 73611 Highway 111. The site is zoned Downtown-Core Overlay (D.O.). The building, which is still under construction, was entitled in 2019 by the Planning Commission pursuant to Resolution No. 2763 for Case No. PP19-0003 and CUP18-0007. The building architecture and landscaping was approved by the Architectural Review Commission (ARC) under Case No. MISC22-0013 on August 23, 2022, with a subsequent amendment on November 15, 2022. B.

West Retail-commercial Regional Retail Downtown Core Overlay District, Scenic Preservation (D.O., S.P.) C. Project Description The project is a request to install four (4) new exterior wall signs on a currently under construction commercial building to service the incoming tenant, Mechanics Bank. The signs will be placed on all four building elevations, each sign being at a different height and size. North Elevation On the north elevation, Sign B will face Highway 111 and will have a total sign area of 34.8 square-feet. The sign will have two lines of text and a logo. It will be installed flush against the building fascia/architectural projection at a height of 9 feet above the ground. The sign is centered on the fascia. East Elevation Sign C will be installed facing Larkspur Lane with a total sign area of 53.5 square feet. The sign will have two lines of text and a logo. It will be installed flush and centered against the building fascia, 25 feet and 11.25 inches above the ground. South Elevation Sign E will be installed facing the internal parking lot and will have a size of 19.3 square feet. The sign will have two lines of text and a logo. It will be installed flush against the building fascia, 24 feet, 1.5 inches above the ground. West Elevation Sign D will be facing the internal parking lot and Highway 111 and will have a total sign area of 53.5 square feet. The sign will have two lines of text and a logo. It will be installed flush and centered against the building fascia, 25.25 feet above the ground. All signs are constructed of individual front-lit channel letters with 3-inch-deep white aluminum returns and white acrylic faces. The letter faces are overlaid with a burgundy vinyl film. The logos are also front-lit fabricated acrylic signs with aluminum returns. The logo faces are overlaid with a translucent sunflower vinyl film. ZONING ORDINANCE SUMMARY Pursuant to Palm Desert Municipal Code (PDMC) Section 25.68.050 (C)(5), the zoning administrator (ZA) may elevate any sign to the ARC depending on the design, context, color, size, shape, location, or circumstance of the sign. The standards for exterior wall signs are listed under Section 25.56.070 (D) and Section 25.56.080 (A) of the Sign Ordinance. Page 11 of 62 SARC23-0008 Mechanics Bank Signage Page 4 of 6 October 24, 2023 The proposed signage meets the standards for signage area, installation, and illumination as outlined in the PDMC. However, it fails to comply with the maximum sign height, which is limited to 20 feet from grade to the uppermost part of the sign. The plans demonstrate that the tallest sign is on the north elevation at 25'-11.25" above grade. Furthermore, even though the signs meet the maximum sign area allowance of 75 square feet, the proximity of the building to the street, its height, and overall massing create a distinctive situation in which the signage should be reviewed by the ARC. The signs could be more consistent in area across each elevation, even if the building frontage is large enough to accommodate that sign's size. For instance, the north building frontage measures 92'-3", but the 66.75 square foot sign is on a 22'-3" wide fascia. ‘ Compliance with the PDMC is summarized below: Table 3 – Wall Sign Conformance Determination Standard Ordinance Project Conformance Determination Sign Area Maximum 75 square feet North Elevation: 34.8 square feet ARC Determination East Elevation: 53.5 square feet South Elevation: 19.3 square feet West Elevation: 53.5 square feet Sign Height Below eave line No greater than 20’-0” above grade Below eave line, maximum 25’-11.25” above grade ARC Determination Letter Height N/A Maximum 20” ARC Determination Letter Color N/A Burgundy Yes Number per Frontage 1 1 Yes Illumination Internal or external Internal front-lit channel letters Yes Per PDMC 25.56.030 (E), when approving or rejecting a sign permit application, the ARC shall consider the design review criteria provided below and shall make the following findings: 1. That the sign is necessary for the applicant’s enjoyment of substantial trade and property rights. The number and location of signs are necessary to provide adequate identification to customers and employees of the business in the building as it is located on a high- volume enhanced arterial (Highway 111). However, the signs, at their proposed location and size, are disproportionately scaled based on the building architecture and the width Page 12 of 62 SARC23-0008 Mechanics Bank Signage Page 5 of 6 October 24, 2023 of the fascia where the signs are placed. Staff recommends that the ARC provide direction on reducing the heights on Signs C, D, and E and on preference for one line of text. 2. That the sign is consistent with the intent and purpose of this chapter and title. The signs are relatively consistent with the guidelines of the Sign Ordinance as they are designed within the acceptable sign envelope. However, the signs on the north and south elevation exceed the maximum height allowance of 20-feet. Therefore, staff recommends the sign locations be lowered for Signs C and D and provide direction on having one line of text. 3. That the sign does not constitute a detriment to public health, safety, and welfare. The design of the signs do not constitute a detriment to public health, safety, and welfare as the design of the signs do not incorporate elements that are distracting or intrusive to motorists or pedestrians. The placement of the signs are not anticipated to create sight obstruction to motorists or pedestrians as they is setback away from line of site areas and mounted onto the building, ranging 9’ to 25’-11.25” above grade. 4. That the size, shape, color, height, and placement of the sign is compatible with and will have a harmonious relationship to the building it identifies, the surrounding neighborhoods, and other signs in the area. The allowable sign area and mounting height shall be determined by the ARC given the context of the building. As proposed the signs are disproportionate to the scale and length of the buildings and could be revised to allow for greater consistency. 5. That both the location of the proposed sign and the design of its visual elements (lettering, words, figures, colors, decorative motifs, spacing, and proportions) are legible under normal viewing conditions prevailing where the sign is to be located. The sign is oriented in a manner to be visible to pedestrians and motorists traveling along Highway 111. The sign area and orientation on the north and south elevations could be revised to better fit the width of the building fascia. As presented, the signs are appropriately centered, but the ARC shall determine whether the height is acceptable. 6. That the location, height, and design of the proposed sign does not obscure from view or unduly detract from existing or adjacent signs and does not in any way compromise the health or safety of any person(s). The location, height, and design of the proposed signs shall be reviewed by the ARC to determine whether they obscure views or unduly detract from existing signs in the vicinity. The signs are not anticipated to adversely affect the public health, safety, or welfare; however, the size and height of signs C and D may be reduced for aesthetic purposes. Page 13 of 62 SARC23-0008 Mechanics Bank Signage Page 6 of 6 October 24, 2023 7. That the location and design of the proposed sign, and its size, shape, illumination, and color are compatible with the visual characteristics of the surrounding area so as not to detract from or cause depreciation of the value of adjacent developed properties. The proposed sign area and installation height of Signs C, D, and E are not compatible with the visual characteristics of the building or surrounding properties. The architectural projections and massing necessitate smaller signs on these elevations, while still providing adequate visibility and benefits to the tenant. Given the context of the building, its size, and proximity to Highway 111, the ARC shall determinate a suitable sign height and area across all four elevations. 8. That the location and design of a proposed sign in close proximity to a residential district does not adversely affect the value or character of the adjacent residential uses. The project site is located on Highway 111, an enhanced commercial arterial that is not in proximity to any residential uses. Therefore, installing the sign would not have any adverse effect on nearby residents. However, the sign installation would immediately impact the tenants of the Jensen's Shopping Center. To ensure a consistent and harmonious appearance, the sign should be appropriately designed for both daytime and nighttime use. 9. That any neon tubing used in conjunction with any sign is incorporated as an integral part of the sign design with careful attention to color, intensity of light, and the use of colors that are not overly bright. Neon tubing is not proposed as part of the sign. The sign will be internally illuminated, front-lit channel letters with white 6500k LEDs in a manner that complies with the Sign Ordinance requirements for commercial business identification signs. All illuminated signs shall be designed with a dimmer system to avoid undue glare or reflection of light on private property in the surrounding vicinity. 10. That the quantity of information displayed in the sign does not cause visual clutter. The signage text is limited to the name of the business and also includes their logo. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the ARC continue the sign design review and provide further direction to the Applicant on the following: 1) An acceptable height for signs that exceed the 20’ maximum height standard. 2) The design of all signs being two lines and the location of the logo as it relates to the text. 3) Provide further scaling and details on the proposed signs as it relates to the fascia they are located on. Alternatively, the ARC may approve the sign design review as proposed or with conditions. Attachment: 1.

BACKGROUND The Applicant, Embassy Suites, represented by Signarama, is requesting approval of one (1) new freestanding monument sign, two (2) new wall signs, and one (1) new directional sign at 74700 Highway 111. The scope of work will service an existing Embassy Suites hotel. One (1) of the building wall signs is a new additional sign and the rest of the signs are replacing existing signs at the project site. On October 10, 2023, planning staff presented the project to the ARC for design review. The ARC continued the item with a 6-0 vote (Commissioner Blakeley Absent), with the following comments: 1. Applicant shall submit drawings which provide accurate details, scaling, and locations of proposed signs. Subsequent to the meeting, the Applicant updated their plans and made the following revisions to address these comments: 1. Applicant updated Sheet 6 of the Plan set to provide the diameter of (12.8’), radius (6.33’), and area of the planter where the proposed monument sign is to be located and distance from edge of monument sign to edge of planter (1’- 3.125” on each side). 2. Applicant updated Sheet 9 to clarify that the planter height is 16”, instead of 24”. This reduces the height of the monument sign to 5’-10” above grade. 3. Updated Sheet 8 of the Plan set to provide dimensions of Sign D as it relates to the building it’s located on. Dimensions include: a. Sign is centered on the wall in between an existing window and edge of wall. Page 23 of 62 SARC23-0009 Embassy Suites Page 2 of 7 October 24, 2023 b. Sign has been lowered to a maximum height of 20’ from grade to top of sign. c. Sign is proposed to be located 4’-7.44” from east edge of wall, 4’-7.44 to the window on the wall, and 12.34’ from sign to west edge of the wall. d. Sign square footage has been reduced from 48.6 square feet to 27.93 square feet. Dimensions have changed from 8’ height and 6’-2.5” length to 6’ height and 4’-7.862” length. Updated and additional renderings were provided in the plan set to show the changes. PROJECT SUMMARY A. Property Description: The project site is an existing Embassy Suites hotel located at 74700 Highway 111. The project was originally approved in 1982 by the Planning Commission under Resolution No. 819 for Development Plan 07-81, Amendment No.1, which approved a 204-room hotel and ancillary restaurant. The project is within the Resort Commercial Center (PC-4) and Planned Residential, 5 units per acre (PR-5) zoning districts. B. Zoning, General Plan and Adjacent Uses: Table 1 – Adjacent Land Use and Designations Existing Uses General Plan Zoning Project Site Hotel Small Town Neighborhood and Suburban Retail Center Resort Commercial Center (PC-4) and Planned Residential, 5 units per acre (PR-5) North Existing Commercial Small Town Neighborhood PR-5 South Existing Commercial Resort and Entertainment PC-4 East Existing Commercial Small Town Neighborhood and Suburban Retail Center Office Professional (OP) and PC-4 West Existing Commercial Small Town Neighborhood and Suburban Retail Center PC-2 C. Project Description The project is a request to construct four (4) new signs to service the existing tenant, Embassy Suites. It includes replacing an existing monument sign, an existing entry wall sign, a directional sign, and adding one (1) new wall sign. All four (4) signs are proposed along the south elevation, facing Highway 111.

The sign will include three lines of text and a ½ inch thick white acrylic push thru logo. The face of the sign will be dark gray, letters will be white, and logo will be green. The sign structure will be installed with two steel tube supports inserted 2 inches below grade. The location will be on an existing 16” high raised planter which currently has a boulder, which will be relocated to the north part of the hotel site. The existing 99 square foot monument sign will be removed and disposed of. The entry façade (Sign B) will be constructed of 5-inch-deep aluminum channel letters and 5-inch-deep logo, mounted flush to the wall fascia. The sign letters will be the color white and the logo will be green. The entry façade sign is unique in location and placement as it is not located on the primary hotel building, but was a location originally approved for an arch structure as you enter the hotel site. The directional sign (Sign C) will be internally illuminated with white LEDs on a 6-inch- deep aluminum cabinet. The directional sign is exempt per the Palm Desert Municipal Code (PDMC) but is presented here as part of the entire sign package. The new wall sign (Sign D) consists solely of a logo and is constructed of an 8-inch-deep aluminum cabinet. The face of the cabinet will be green with a white letter and will be mounted with 2-inch galvanized clips on the wall. ZONING ORDINANCE SUMMARY Pursuant to Palm Desert Municipal Code (PDMC) Section 25.68.050, new signage on buildings with frontages greater than 100 linear feet and new monument signs require ARC review and approval. The standards for exterior wall signs are listed under Section 25.56.070 (D) and Section 25.56.080 (A) of the Sign Ordinance. Page 25 of 62 SARC23-0009 Embassy Suites Page 4 of 7 October 24, 2023 As noted, Sign C (Directional Sign) is exempt pursuant to PDMC Section 25.56.040 (J) and is not included in the analysis for Zoning Ordinance review. Compliance with the PDMC is summarized below: Table 3 –Sign Conformance Determination Standard Ordinance Sign A (Monument) Sign B Sign D Conformance Determination Sign Area – Monument 100 sf 45.75 N/A N/A Yes Sign Area – Building mounted 100 sf total N/A 67.64 27.93 Yes Sign Height (Monument) 6’ 5’-10” N/A N/A Yes Sign Height (wall sign) Below eave line & not higher than 20’ N/A 20’ 20’ Yes Letter Height N/A 5.687” and 4.977” 15” 6’ ARC Determination Letter Color N/A White and Green White and Green White and Green Yes Number per Frontage 1 1 2 2 ARC Determination Illumination Internal or external Internal front-lit channel letters Internal front-lit channel letters Internal front-lit channel letters Yes The proposed building mounted signs comply with the PDMC Ordinance sign area allowance of 100 sf per building frontage. The proposed building signs are unique in placement due to the existing entry façade sign being a separate structure from the main hotel building. The applicant is proposing one sign on the entry façade replacing the existing 88 sf entry sign and a new sign on the hotel building, both facing the south façade. Combined, they are 95.57 sf, which complies with the allowed 100 sf per frontage but exceeds the allowance of number per frontage. Per PDMC 25.56.030 (E), when approving or rejecting a sign permit application, the ARC shall consider the design review criteria provided below and shall make the following findings: 1. That the sign is necessary for the applicant’s enjoyment of substantial trade and property rights. The signs are necessary to provide adequate identification to customers and employees of the business in the building as it is located on a high-volume vehicular Page 26 of 62 SARC23-0009 Embassy Suites Page 5 of 7 October 24, 2023 arterial (Highway 111) and within a hotel. The signs, at their proposed location and size, are appropriately scaled for this center. The proposed monument, entry façade, and directional sign are similar to the existing sign and reduce the square footage of the existing sign. The new proposed building façade sign is necessary for identification of the main hotel building. 2. That the sign is consistent with the intent and purpose of this chapter and title. The signs are consistent with the intent and purpose of the Sign Ordinance as the signs are designed in harmony with the building area. The material and color of the signs are standard of the Embassy Suites franchise and are similar in character to other Embassy Suites and nearby hotel and commercial uses. The proposed signs are similar in size and character to the existing Embassy Suites signs currently on the building. The signs are placed appropriately below the eave line with enough distance between the roof eave and sign and meet the maximum height standards of 20’. The proposed building signs are unique in placement due to the existing entry façade sign being a separate structure from the main hotel building. The applicant is proposing one sign on the entry façade replacing the existing 88 sf entry sign and a new sign on the hotel building, both facing the south façade. Combined, they are 95.57 sf, meeting the allowed 100 sf per frontage but exceeding the allowance of number per frontage. The proposed monument sign is proposed at a height of 5’- 10” which meet the maximum height of 6’. The monument sign itself is a 4’-6” sign that is placed on an existing 16” high raised planter by the entrance. The sign is replacing the existing 11’-7” tall monument sign and is smaller in size. 3. That the sign does not constitute a detriment to public health, safety, and welfare. The design of the signs does not constitute a detriment to public health, safety, and welfare as the design of the signs do not incorporate elements that are distracting or intrusive to motorists or pedestrians. The placement of the signs are not anticipated to create sight obstruction to motorists or pedestrians as they are setback away from line of site areas and mounted onto the building, approximately 20 feet above grade. The proposed monument sign was reviewed for line of sight clearances and is placed in a location that does not create issues for motorists or pedestrians. Nighttime renderings confirm that the signs will not create negative impacts during nighttime and will be required to be on a dimmer per Palm Desert Municipal Code and California Building Code. 4. That the size, shape, color, height, and placement of the sign is compatible with and will have a harmonious relationship to the building it identifies, the surrounding neighborhoods, and other signs in the area. The location of the signs on all elevations are typical of other tenants with frontages facing Highway 111. The green and white-colored returns and letter faces are typical of Embassy Suites branding. The sizes of the signs are appropriate for the size of the building when taking into consideration the total frontage of the standalone building and meet the other requirements of the City’s sign regulations, with the exceptions sign per frontage. The heights are lower than the existing signs, meet Page 27 of 62 SARC23-0009 Embassy Suites Page 6 of 7 October 24, 2023 the 20’ maximum height per sign, and the monument sign is higher because of infrastructure it will be installed upon. The additional building frontage sign is due to unique building design where an entry structure has an existing sign and the main building does not have signage as currently proposed. 5. That both the location of the proposed sign and the design of its visual elements (lettering, words, figures, colors, decorative motifs, spacing, and proportions) are legible under normal viewing conditions prevailing where the sign is to be located. The signs are oriented in a manner to be visible to pedestrians and motorists traveling along Highway 111. The area of the proposed signs are appropriately scaled to the dimensions of the building fascia and centered above the entrance and along each frontage. The new monument sign is in an appropriate location on an existing raised planter where it is visible to pedestrians and motorists. The new monument sign is in a more appropriate location and at a more appropriate scale and replaces the existing monument sign which is larger and taller. 6. That the location, height, and design of the proposed sign does not obscure from view or unduly detract from existing or adjacent signs and does not in any way compromise the health or safety of any person(s). The location, height, and design of the proposed signs does not obscure view or unduly detract from existing signs in the vicinity and does not adversely affect the public health, safety, or welfare. The location of the signs conforms to the Ordinance and is sized appropriately for consistency with other commercial wall signs. The area of the proposed signs are appropriately scaled to the dimensions of the building fascia and centered above the entrance and along each frontage. The new monument sign is in an appropriate location on an existing raised planter where it is visible to pedestrians and motorists. The new monument sign is in a more appropriate location and at a more appropriate scale and replaces the existing monument sign which is larger and taller. The heights are lower than the existing signs and the monument sign is higher because of infrastructure it will be installed upon. The logo sign on the building façade is proposed at a height of 20’ and is placed appropriately with room between the sign and the eave. 7. That the location and design of the proposed sign, and its size, shape, illumination, and color are compatible with the visual characteristics of the surrounding area so as not to detract from or cause depreciation of the value of adjacent developed properties. The proposed square footage of the signs meets the allowable amount in the PDMC. The proposed signs are similar in size and character to the existing Embassy Suites signs currently on the building. The signs, at their proposed location and size, are appropriately scaled for this center. The PDMC allows the ARC to approve an exception to number per frontage. Page 28 of 62 SARC23-0009 Embassy Suites Page 7 of 7 October 24, 2023 8.That the location and design of a proposed sign in close proximity to a residential district does not adversely affect the value or character of the adjacent residential uses. The signs are compatible with the structure of the building and meet the requirements established in PDMC Table 25.56-2 for commercial signage. Therefore, the signs will not adversely impact the character of adjacent commercial and residential uses. The signs are located facing Highway 111, a predominantly commercial and retail arterial. The signs are designed in a way that is compatible and does not adversely impact the character of the adjacent residential uses, including size and location on the building, and are not obtrusive. 9.That any neon tubing used in conjunction with any sign is incorporated as an integral part of the sign design with careful attention to color, intensity of light, and the use of colors that are not overly bright. Neon tubing is not proposed for the signs. The building wall signs will be internal front lit channel letters and one building wall sign will be an aluminum cabinet sign, all of which are installed in a manner that complies with the Sign Ordinance requirements for channel letter signs. 10.That the quantity of information displayed in the sign does not cause visual clutter. The signage text is limited to the name of the business and its logo. The directional sign is reduced solely to identify “lobby” and reduces clutter and text from the existing sign. The monument sign includes the same text as the current monument sign and is appropriate for its location. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the ARC determines that the requirements of the findings have been met based on the analysis and approve the Sign Design Review and signs per frontage exemption as identified in the staff report.

The project will consist of constructing a new 100 square-foot shade structure, signage, installation of an aluminum cabinet and ATM, site improvements for accessibility, and installation of new landscaping. The Architectural Review Commission (ARC) will consider the architecture and landscape design of the proposed project for final consideration. Signage for the project is included in the submittal package but will be approved by Planning staff and is not part of the ARC design review. Project Summary A. Property Description: The project site is an irregularly shaped 8.56-acre parcel of developed land near the northeast corner of Monterey Avenue and Dick Kelly Drive. The parcel is within the existing Desert Gateway retail center (Center) and is improved with a Walmart Superstore retail building, and parking lot, which was approved by the City Council under Resolution No. 03-27 for Planning Cases PP 01-30 and TPM 30502 and subsequently developed in 2005. The portion of the site where the project is located is adjacent to an accessible path of travel connecting to the center’s internal private sidewalk system. B. Zoning, General Plan and Adjacent Uses Table 1 – Adjacent Land Use and Designations Existing Uses General Plan Zoning Project Site Existing Parking Lot / Retail Regional Retail Center Regional Commercial Center (PC-3), Freeway Page 48 of 62 DR23-0043 – FLITE ATM US Bank Page 2 of 6 October 24, 2023 Commercial Center (FCOZ) North Existing Parking Lot / Retail Regional Retail Center PC-3, FCOZ South Existing Parking Lot / Retail Regional Retail Center PC-3, FCOZ East Existing Parking Lot / Retail Regional Retail Center PC-3, FCOZ West Existing Parking Lot / Retail Regional Retail Center PC-3, FCOZ C. Project Description Site Plan The Site Plan (Figure 1 below) shows the location of the shade structure, landscaping, and proximity to parking, and private sidewalk/path of travel. The shade structure will be an open sided, solid-roofed, 100 square-foot freestanding pergola which will shade a proposed ATM kiosk. The structure will require the removal of one parking space to accommodate the raised sidewalk area, access, and landscaping. Figure 1 – Proposed Site Plan (Sheet 1) Architecture The proposed structure is characterized by Spanish style architectural elements including a sloped clay tile roof supported by four (4) six-inch wooden posts, with a stone veneer-clad concrete masonry unit (CMU) base, and exposed wooden beams as depicted in the Page 49 of 62 DR23-0043 – FLITE ATM US Bank Page 3 of 6 October 24, 2023 elevations shown below. The ATM will be housed within an aluminum cabinet enclosure which is painted blue and surrounded by a 6’-0” wall clad with stone. The total height of the structure will be 10’-0” above the proposed finished grade, which will be raised approximately 0’-6” from the existing parking lot to match grade of the adjacent private sidewalk. Other buildings in the center are designed with Spanish style architectural elements such as sloped clay tile roofs and decorative wood rafter ends, which are similar to the proposed structure. Figure 2 – Proposed Elevations Landscaping The proposed landscape plan will modify existing landscaping planters to add four (4) new Sierra Negra plants on the east and west sides of the ATM facility. Additional hardscaping consisting of three (3) new boulders will be added to the north side of the ATM facility. Approximately 142 square-feet of decomposed granite will be added to the adjacent planters existing ground cover nearby. Two existing parking lot shade trees will be removed to construct the proposed structure. Figure 3 – Proposed Landscaping (Sheet A.10) See following page. Page 50 of 62 DR23-0043 – FLITE ATM US Bank Page 4 of 6 October 24, 2023 Zoning Ordinance Summary ARC approval of a design review is required for all new structures applications per PDMC Section 25.68.020 (A). Findings for ARC decisions are listed under PDMC Section 25.68.040 – Findings of the ARC. As proposed, the project complies with all applicable standards of the PC-3 zoning designation as summarized below under Table 2: Table 2 – Development Standard Conformance Development Standard STANDARD PROJECT CONFORMS Building Setbacks as Measures from Property Lines Front Yard - 97’-0” Yes Side Yard Setback - 72’-2” Yes Rear Setback - 850’-0” Yes Building Height (max) Height, max 35’-0” 10’-0” Yes Number of stories 2 1 Yes Coverage Floor area ratio 1.0 0.28 Yes Parking Findings in support of the project are listed below: To approve a design review application, the ARC shall find the following: A. That the proposed development conforms to any legally adopted development standards. The proposed development conforms with the standards for the PC-3, FCOZ zoning district, including setbacks, floor area ratio, parking, and density. As outlined in table 2 above, all development standards are met. Page 51 of 62 DR23-0043 – FLITE ATM US Bank Page 5 of 6 October 24, 2023 B. That the design and location of the proposed development and its relationship to neighboring existing or proposed developments and traffic is such that it will not impair the desirability of investment or occupation in the neighborhood; and that it will not unreasonably interfere with the use and enjoyment of neighboring existing or proposed developments and that it will not create traffic hazards or congestion. The proposed project is within the PC-3 zoning, surrounded by existing retail, service commercial, and financial institution land uses including walkup and drive-through ATMs. The design of the project includes quality finishes and Spanish style architectural elements which are compatible with existing architecture in the vicinity. The architecture and landscape design of the project does not impair the desirability of investment or occupation in the neighborhood and improves the overall aesthetic and desirability of the surrounding properties. The project falls within the acceptable density range and is not anticipated to generate a traffic issue. C. That the design and location of the proposed development is in keeping with the character of the surrounding neighborhood and is not detrimental to the harmonious, orderly, and attractive development contemplated by this title and the General Plan of the City. The design of the project includes quality finishes and Spanish style architectural elements which are compatible and harmonious with existing architecture in the vicinity, which utilizes similar Spanish style elements. D. That the design and location of the proposed development would provide a desirable environment for its occupants, as well as for its neighbors, and that it is aesthetically of good composition, materials, textures, and colors. The proposed design utilizes durable finishes and features, provides a shaded structure and screen walls for the ATM, and is compatible with the adjacent development in terms of materials, textures, and colors. E. That the proposed use conforms to all the requirements of the zone in which it is located and all other applicable requirements. The proposed development conforms with all development standards of the underlying PC-3 zoning district and all other applicable requirements. F. That the overall development of the land shall be designed to ensure the protection of the public health, safety, and general welfare. The site plan and grading plan have been reviewed to confirm the design provides for protection of the public’s health, safety, and general welfare. The site is adequately serviced by utilities and the grading plan reviewed in accordance with City requirements. The project provides setbacks from adjacent properties that meet the standards of the PC-3 zoning district. Page 52 of 62 DR23-0043 – FLITE ATM US Bank Page 6 of 6 October 24, 2023 STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the ARC determines that the requirements of the findings have been met based on the analysis and approves the Design Review as presented. Any modifications required should be added to the motion as a condition of approval.
