MS-3080 April 18,2005 Pag«6of7 Based on the frontage on Highway 12 the site is permitted 191 s.f. of total signage. Due to the 100 s.f. maximum for the monument sign, 91 s.f is left for wall signage for the proposed buildings. At the time a revised monument style sign is submitted meeting the monument standards, the applicant should also submit a plan illustrating the sizes and content of any signs to be affixed to the buildings, if any are proposed. BHilding Matcriab The front elevation, attached as Exhibit V, illustrates a standing seam metal roof, stucco siding, aluminum frame windows, and ledger stone. These materials meet the architectural standards outlined in the B - 6 zoning district. The applicant has stated that these materials will incorporate earth tones. Staff would recommend that a revised set of elevations be submitted illustrating like building materials for all facades to eliminate confusion. Aasociatioii Documents The qjplicant submitted a draft of the association documents prior to the first City Council meeting, which are attached as Exhibit BB. During the public hearing at the Planning Commission, conunissioners expressed concern about regulating the types of uses that would buy into the project and their parking demands. The concept plan approval resolution notes that the “Applicant shall incorporate into association documents formation of a review committee to review/approve uses as they are introduced into the development.” The intent of this requirement was for a self-policing of the intensities of the uses. The documents submitted thus far do not appear to meet this requirement; therefore, revised association documents must be submitted for City Attorney review against this standard. The Planning Commission should discuss whether the concept plan approval resolution requirement covers the concern of intensities of uses and if any additional revision to the association documents should be considered. Issues for Discussion 1. Is the proposed landscape plan sensitive to the residential uses to the north and east? 2. Are the changes to the association documents regarding policing the intensities of uses reasonable? 3. Does the Planning Commission have concerns regarding signage that would be affixed to the buildings? What about lighting concerns? Staff Recomnitndation The Planning Commission could either table the application or move it forward to the City Council stipulating submittal of the below listed requirements: 1. Plans illustrating dedication of a public driveway easement should be submitted prior to approval by the City Council. The driveway easement must follow the proposed drive aisle of the parking lot, be a minimum width of 24’ and must be submitted as a separate document for filing, as it cannot be shown on the plat.
