DESIGN REVIEW
VI. Minor Project
Saltwater Cowboy
Property Location: Lot 20, Block 2, Benchmark at Beaver Creek Subdivision
Applicant: Stephen Bullock/ Owner: Mistral, Inc.
Description: A proposal to physically delineate the liquor license boundary and outdoor
seating area for the serving of food and beverages. The proposed modifications would be
assembled using cedar planters and planks. The proposed modifications are proposed to
enclose approximately 1,500 square feet.
Discussion:
Jared Barnes gave an overview of the Staff Report for this item. The Commission asked staff
about the legal requirements regarding proper delineation of liquor license boundaries and
whether minimum requirements exist. Staff answered in the affirmative with a description of
what constitutes the minimum requirement for such. Mr. Bullock presented his idea and
rationale for his proposed method for liquor license boundary delineation. He also went on to
discuss other options he is willing to do. The Commission had further questions related to the
details of the proposal and other available options.
Struve: the idea of outdoor dining is positive but the material specs (metal railings of same
dimensions but not necessarily color) of the enclosure should match those of Vin48.
Anderson: agrees with other Commissioners, likes the idea behind proposed planters but the
steel railings (Vin48) should be incorporated as well to alleviate concerns of stability and
containment.
Lane: agrees with other Commissioners but would not want to see the shade of blue on the
existing sign used on the new railings.
Roubos: the idea is good but not the execution of the design concept, with the "knee-high (2)
planks", but flower planters would be nice. Does not agree this should match/compliment
Vin48's metal fencing.
Green: can see the planters working but the concept must be refined: planters need to be
more compatible with the building; doesn't have to match/compliment Vin48 but must be
designed to compliment the building and its surroundings and as submitted does not meet the
intent/purpose of the guidelines. Agrees with staff that a better site plan is needed and the
accurate extent of the seating area must be depicted.
Prince: supportive of outdoor seating but it has to be in conformance with design guidelines.
Doesn't necessarily have to be complimentary of Vin48 and perhaps play off the cowboy
theme; however, cannot approve as submitted.
Goulding: try to balance what Vin48 came up with since they were first in the door but still
make the applicant's business visually distinct with the brand identity. Do something different
but complimentary and in keeping with the rest of the building/surroundings. Perhaps
something like wooden wine cask/barrels would work well here.
Motion: Commissioner Green motioned to Table the item and Commissioner Prince
Seconded, motion passed unanimously.
