the reglets, because of the time arxl experlse irYvolved in the re�naval
of the stucco. He feels that the developers have received the point

Commissioner Holden commented that the feeling he received fran
council was that two story building were acceptable, but they shpuld
be stepped with ane and tw� story levels. It was also rioted that this

residential areas. FYnm this property easterly is a residential
area.

elevations have recessed windaws, but the west elevation also has
vertical fin shades, and the north and east elevations are flat. All
wincb�ws are reflective glass.

the same solar protection as the west elevation.

in regards to height and length. Ar�other concern was the lack of roof
