Building Elevations The building will have a fiat roof along with exterior materials consisting of primarily a wood product. The proposed plans indicate a siding material of T1-11 (plywood) as the primary external finishing material. The School District has indicated that the building will be painted to match the existing high school to provide compatibility between the two structures. Please refer to the attached report to the Planning Commission for additional information. Police Department Attached to the report to the Planning Commission is a memo from the police department outlining two concerns that they have with the request for the temporary building. These concerns are as follows: 1. Lack of natural surveillance. 2. Access to the site involves leaving the main school building. To address the police department's concerns, staff has discussed with the building official and fire chief the possibility of fencing between the existing school and temporary facility as requested by the police department. This can be accomplished as long as the handicap ramps and general access to the building is not obstructed. This fencing requirement has been discussed with the School District and they have agreed to install a 6 foot high chain link fence to discourage after hours activity between the two structures. Planning Commission Recommendation The Planning Commission has recommended approval of the conditional use permit for Independent School District No. 728 to allow the construction of a temporary classroom facility with the conditions outlined in the staff report and including the following condition: o If approved by the fire chief, a chain link fence be installed between the two structures to discourage the use of the area after hours.
