Dingwell felt that the roof should be revisr:d to match rest of the Town and didn't
feel that it would fit in with the rest of the community.
Donaldson felt if Master Plan were complete, there would be a better direction
.r► for some of the comments made. Avon is a neighborhood community with middle of
the line commercial and a red roof should be addressed within the community Master
Plan. He felt that in the future, Avon would have more residential and commercial
araac and agreed with Landauer on impact at the intersection and how future
businesses could be treated in that area.
Cuny stated that she did not like the red roof, but did not want to jeopardize
the project by denying a red roof. She felt that applicants had worked very hard
to make the building and landscaping match the community. She firther stated
that an important consideration is the international reputation Pizza Hut has.
You know what you're getting in the way of service, quality, and the operation
as a whole. She felt that Avon is a growing community and needs restaurants and
businesses within the Town.
Kumpost stated he would rather see a more neutral red. The Commission may be
setting a precedent regarding colors which may help in review of other projects
that could come in and where they do fit within the Town. Kumpost asked if the
color of the roof would be the same red when repainted.
Lawrence stated that they are restricted by their franchise agreement and it must
be the same color until the franchisor says it can be changed. He reiterated that
if everyone is doing their job right in operating any kind of chain operation, you
know what you're going to get in the way of service and quality.
Lamont asked if a 5 year appro✓al were given on roof, could discussion continue
on changing the color of the roof.
Lawrence answered yes.
Concerns were mentioned regarding the pro%rsed information center to be located
on Phase II.
