Commission felt that the south elevation needed additional sun
protection over the windaws, the kitchen windaws should be facing
out into patio area, and the awiv.rig over the doors st�ould be a
permanent stxucture. It was r�oted that the rear setback does r�t
meet code requirements and that a variance w�ould need to be obtained
or the buildings shifted on the site.
Applicant noted that the windo�ws would have reflective glaze on the
south elevation, but w�uld install trellis. The kitchen windaws are
placed around the corner frcm the patio area. Applicant feels that
tenants ux�uld r�t open curtains if windaws faced patio area. Also,
the doors already setback one foot and the awnings were just for
looks. Applicant noted that he would delete the awnings if
ccnmission requested.
C�ainnan Gregory asked what type of assurance does the camtission
have that the awnings will be cleaned. The applicant nated that the
cleaning of the awrLiszgs would be the responsibility of the tenarits.
It was n�ted that the rear setback issue w�uld be resolved by the
planning cam�ission.
It was moved by CamLissioner McCrea, seconded by Camt.issioner Holden
to grant preliminary approval subject to the condition that
additional permanent solar protection being added to the south
elevation, and if any major changes are made to the site plan as a
result of planning camtission action the project should be brought
back before the commission. Carried 2-0-1 (Chairman Gregory
abstained).
