Case File:CU 12-20 Cornerstone Conditional Use Permit Page 2 The applicant received Conditional Use Permit approval in 2006. The development of the project was to occur in 6 phases;to date, the first two phases are complete. The approval documents in 2006 included a sunset date of 2010 for completion. Since that date has passed, a new Conditional Use Permit is required. OVERVIEW The applicant seeks Conditional Use Permit approval to add approximately 16,000 square feet of showroom and sales area to the on to the existing 38,400 square foot car dealership. This addition is the first of several planned,including expansions to the parts and service centers. The first two phases of the original 2006 expansion plan have been completed,including renovation of the then existing dealership,improvements to the parking lot, and construction of the car wash/ detail service. Although there is some minor increase of the square footage, the planned improvements are generally consistent with the original approval. Signage. The application proposes several wall signs. These signs exceed the amount of signage allowed by ordinance,and are the subject of a variance request (V12-02). The approval of the signage is not covered by this Conditional Use Permit. Building materials. The building materials consist of architectural metal panels (white for Kia,gray for Chrysler, silver for Ford),glass, and EIFS. The design of the buildings meets the intent of the design requirements. The exception is the east elevation;the applicant proposes EIFS,where two approved wall materials are required. It is recognized that much of this wall will be an interior wall in future phases and the additional materials can be absorbed at that time.
