Chairman Gregory asked if it was necessary to have the chain link
fence extend from the ground up to the top of the building. The
architect indicated that the chain link fence was being used to
create the appearance of a backstop.
Commissioner Holden indicated that the appearance of the backstop
will only occur when inside the building looking out.
Commission felt that the fence gives the building the appearance of
being split down the middle and being two buildings. Commission
asked if the fence could be cut down some to relieve this appearance.
The architect felt that reducing the fence would not eliminate the
split building look.
Chairman Gregory stated that the photinias would not survive if
planted on the south elevation and suggested that they be replaced
with something else.
It was moved by Commissioner McCrea, seconded by Chairman Gregory to
approve this case as submitted. Carried 3-1 (Commissioner Drury

plan design.

some of the north and south elevations would not receive sufficient
solar protection.

Commissioner Drury asked if the over-hang doors would be the standard
grey roll-up doors. Mr. Manusos indicated that they would be the
standard type doors. Commissioner Drury felt that the plans reflect
a variety of materials that look good, but in actuality the building
will not look as good and will have a cold feeling.
Chairman Gregory suggested that the top parapet wall be plastered or
precision block.
Mr. Smith informed commission that this project had some parking
problems that would be resolved by the planning commission. The
parking lot needs two additional parking spaces, and either 35'
radius turnaround lanes or a reciprocal access agreement with the
neighboring properties.
Commission noted that the parapet wall should be high enough to
adequately screen roof mounted equipment.
It was moved by Commissioner Holden, seconded by Commissioner Drury
to approve this project subject to the change of materials to match
those reflected on the elevations, the parapet wall should be
plastered or a smooth surfaced material, parapet height should
adequately screen roof mounted equipment, implementation of staff
conditions on the parking lot, and submittal of landscape plans.
Carried 4-0.
