INTRODUCTION:
The applicant appeared before the Commission on August 4, 1993 to present the
Conceptual Design for a single-family residence on Lot 8, Block 4, Wildridge Subdivision.
The following suggestions were made:
1. The driveway grade needs to be reviewed, with attention to the grade as it meets the
street.
2. The siding and stucco differentiation between those materials needs to be clearly
indicated.
3. The street front elevation needs to be colored and submitted at Final.
4. All of the retaining wall finishes need to be detailed and delineated clearly; what are
the wall materials; how does the wall relate to the building
5. Provide color and material samples at Final.
6. Provide more detail on the elevations and floor plans.
The applicant has addressed these suggestions and is now requesting Final Design Review
of his residence.

Condition Submittal, Final Design Review
PROJECT TYPE: Single Family Residence
ZONING: PUD, Duplex COMPLIES WITH ZONING? YES
INTRODUCTION:
At the July 20, 1993 meeting, the Commission approved the Final Design for the
Klein/Sherwood single-family residence with the condition that the applicant return with a
landscape plan.
SITE:
The average slope of the. lot is approximately 20%, falling away from the street. The
driveway grades have been re -worked to improve the transition between the street and
driveway, resulting in a 41/6 slope for the first 20 feet. The existing plant materials on the
site are sage and native grasses.
Because of the slope of the site, a step foundation is being used.
LANDSCAPE PLAN:
The submitted landscape plan provides for four clusters of plant materials and the re -
vegetation of all disturbed areas with a native grass mix. In addition, snow storage areas
have been designated and a 3 foot rock retaining wall is proposed along the inside curve of
the driveway.
The landscape plan shows a reasonable variety of adequate sized trees and shrubs.
Irrigation is proposed to be by hand.
STAFF COMMENTS:
Staff feels that the proposed plant materials meet the minimum size criteria. Species are
acceptable and their location in clusters provides maximum effect. The re -vegetation area
shown on the landscape plan must cover the total area of disturbance.
The landscape plan shows a 3 foot high rock wall.

Request for Approval of Storage Shed and Storage/Loading Area Fencing
PROJECT TYPE: Storage Shed and Storage Area Fencing
ZONING: TC, Town Center COMPLIES WITH ZONING? YES, NON-
CONFORMING USE
The Commission reviewed a new sign for Slifer Designs on July 20, 1993, and approved
the sign with the condition that the applicant return with a request for approval of the
storage shed located at the rear of the building.
The applicant, Slifer Designs, has submitted a request to utilize a "Tuff' Shed" on their
property to store material (previously stored along the south wall, which gave an untidy
appearance to this area of the building).
In addition, they would like to construct a six foot wood fence along the east and south
property line to prevent trespassing in this area. The proposed fence does not completely
enclose the property, rather is intended to deter people from cutting through this area.
The fence would also screen their loadingistorage area from surrounding properties.
SITE PLAN:
An overall site plan has been submitted by the applicant (see enclosed) which shows the
location of the existing building, the required overall parking spaces, the existing dumpster
and the storage shed.
A detailed site plan has also been submitted showing the proposed location of the fence.
The loading/storage area is located on the south side of the Slifer Designs building. The
site is currently used for truck parking and loading. This area also has four designated
parking spaces and a dumpster enclosure. The area is flat and pa•,ed. Adjacent land uses
include WalMart to the east and the railroad right-of-way to the south.
DISCUSSION:
Building:
The applicant is requesting an accessory building to be used for storage. The shed is
approximately 8'X 10' and is 8'-8" at its maximum height Accessory buildings are allowed
in this zoning district. However, the location, materials and color of the storage shed must
be approved by the Commission.

Request for Approval of Storage Shed and Storage/Loading Area Fencing
The proposed location would be adjacent to the dumpster enclosure. The exterior is T1-
11 rough -sawn siding with similar trim. The color is light brown. Roof material is asphalt
shingle in dark gray.
Fencing:
The applicant proposes a six foot high closed vertical -slat wood fence along the south and
east limit of the paved loading/storage area. The fence would be visible from the WalMart
west parking lot and from the railroad right-of-way to the south. No specifications have
been provided.
STAFF COMMENTS OR CONCERNS:
Overall Parking:
This property was granted a parking variance by the Town Council in 1991. The variance
allows for 45 parking spaces, with two being compact spaces. The attached site plan
shows 45 parking spaces on the property. The variance approvdl showed 4 spaces in the
loading area; however, the applicant states that only two spaces are now needed in the
loading area to meet their site parking requirements because of pavement improvements
along the west property line.
Storage Shed:
The proposed location of the shed will retain two parking spaces in the loading dock area
(see above). The shed will also clean up the area by allowing enclosed storage of
materials presently being stored along the back of the building.
Fencing:
Under Miscellaneous Provisions in the Zoning Code, commercial service yards shall be
fenced or screened so as not to be visible from the street, and such screening shall be a
maximum six feet high.

To the Board:
Slifer Designs would like your permission to have a "Tuff Shed" on
our property to use as storage. In the past we have stacked
material outside our building along the south wall, which does not
look very tidy - the "Tuff Shed" eliminates the mess.
Additionally, we would like permission to install cyclone fencing
(see drawing) to prevent trespassing through our property.
Presently people walk from the trailer park through our property to
Walmart. They have the opportunity to observe our operation up
close. We feel this activity contributed to Slifer Designs
delivery trucks being robbed last week. While the fence will not
enclose our property, it will at least require people to walk
around our loading area, rather then through the middle of it.
