III. CASES
CASE N0. 147 C - JACK WISE - Preliminary approval of plans for a racquet-
ball facility. John Walling was present.
Mr. Smith highlighted the salient points from the staff report. A similar
application had been approved in 1979, however that approval has lapsed.
Mr. Walling told the Board that his client wishes to amend the pr,aposed
wall material to be precision block rather than split-face block. The
proposed wall will be painted a tan color. In response to a question from
the Chairman, Mr. Walling advised the Board that the roof equipment would
not be visible from the street.
Following considerable discussion, the Chairman summarized the feelings
of the Board as follows:
1 . The proposed wall changes should not be permitted. The wall should
be retained as split-face concrete block.
2. That on the landscape plan, all proposed 15 gallon species be in-
creased to a 24" box minimum, that planting of the island in the
parking area be increased to a 36" box minimum Jacaranda t�imosaefolia
and a minimum 24" box Schinus Terebinthifous, that the 5 gallon
Eucalyptus Rostrata be increased to a 15 gallon minimum.
3. That the proposed type of ground cover be delineated in all areas
where ground cover is shown.
4. That the proposed ground cover along the west and south of the
building faces be studied for appropriateness in these locations.
5. That the proposed Ilex Vomitoria be planted at 24" on center.
6. That the proposed Carissa Tuttle be planted at 18" on center.
7. That the proposed Dwarf Oleander be planted at 36" on center
