Approval Building Design, Colors, Materials and Landscaping Plans

ACTION: CONTINUED AT THE APPLICANT’S REQUEST

Daveed Kapoor was present to discuss the project.

One chit was submitted, Mr. Nicholas Ree.

Chairperson Folonis closed the public hearing.

Board members stated that this application is unclear as two sets of plans have been submitted, the elevations are not clearly labeled, the material board is lacking detail, and the landscaping submittal is minimal and incomplete, with no irrigation detail. The Board also suggested that the applicant revisit the north and south elevations.

The Board stated that any future submittal contain floor plans, parking plans, integration of the solar plans into the design of the building, and redesigning the pedestrian ground level retail to meet the current City Zoning requirements.

Mr. Kapoor asked for a continuance.

Chairperson Folonis made the motion to continue the project that was seconded by Board member Mimieux and continued by roll call vote 5-0.
