<br />City Council / SP 05-10 <br />November 21, 2005 <br />Page 3 <br /> <br />Although lighting is not indicated on the elevations, all exterior fixtures must have downward <br />directed light sources (full cut-rifJ). <br /> <br />Landscaping <br /> <br />The landscape plan meets the requirements. <br /> <br />Grading. Drainage and Utilities <br /> <br />Grading, Drainage and Utilities are addressed in the City Engineer's memo. <br /> <br />Planning Commission Action <br /> <br />One resident expressed concern with the trash enclosure and where snow would be stored. <br />He also question what will prevent parking along Irving Avenue. <br /> <br />A majority of the discussion centered on the design of the west fa<;:ade of the building, <br />roofing materials and fire access on the west side of the lot. <br /> <br />The Planning Commission recommended that gable roof elements be provide over the <br />doors/windows on the west elevation. Staff would recommend that the grouping of two <br />pergolas be treated with gable roofs/columns and bases and then leave the single pergola as <br />proposed. This will provide a variety of elements on the west fa<;:ade. These changes will <br />help create a consistent design around all side of the building. <br /> <br />Although the Planning Commission preferred asphalt shingles, as they are more residential, <br />there was some confusion on staffs comment that the design will be either standing seam <br />metal roof or asphalt shingles. It was a comment by staff that either type will be used <br />pending the client's preference and that it was not intended to be selected by the <br />Commission. Both materials are acceptable and given the scale of the retail building, <br />standing seam metal roof would be a more appropriate choice, as it is not a residence. <br /> <br />A revised site plan was submitted that addressed the fire lane issue. The two retaining walls <br />on the south side will be removed and replaced. This more than likely will affect the buffer <br />of trees from the residential lot adjacent to the property. The new wall will be 13.1 feet from <br />the south property line. The concrete paver fire access lane will be 8.6 feet from the south <br />end of the building and wrap around the west end of the building. Parking will not be <br />allowed near the trash enclosure area. <br /> <br />The Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the request. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />Staff and the Planning Commission recommend the City Council approve the request with <br />the following conditions: <br /> <br />1. All comments of the City Engineer shall be addressed. <br /> <br />S:\PLANNING\Case Files\2005\SP 05-10 Lakeland Partners\SP 05-1O_CC.doc <br />
