Proposed uses consist of restaurant, retail shops, personal service shops and offices. The building will have a flat roof with a small area near the west end having a peaked standing seam metal roof. The remainder of the building will be stucco. Proposed colors are Heritage Grey with Villager Red trim, with forest green roof and columns. Staff feels that the project does meet the minimum requirements for the proposed uses as shown on the floor plans. Wood then reviewed Staff recommendations with Commission. Buff Arnold, architect of project stated that the sign program materials would be reviewed by the owners first before being presented for Commission approval. The site plan shows the grading on the entire site along with the proposed retaining walls. He stated that the loading zone has been moved right next to the building and the easement has been moved 4 feet to the east, thus enough space to incorporate a pedestrian grade transition. There is a 4-5' grade differential between properties, and are proposing to make up that differential with a ramp or stairway to run north and south. Arnold explained concept of access and retaining wall from plans submitted. Wood then reviewed list of acceptable materials for the sign program which include, but are not limited to aluminum or brass metal letters, neon, solid sandblasted redwood signs either painted or natural; not to include individual wood letters. Signs may also contain the business logo. Some acceptable letter styles are American typewriter, futura, helvetica, and korinna. Each individual sign must be approved by the building owners in order to maintain consistency throughout the sign program. Each sign shall be limited to an area of l' 4" x 10' O", or 13.3 square feet. Discussion followed on sign program. Blair suggested that applicant bring in detailed examples of the sign program. Blair then reviewed Staff recommendations with Commission. Lamont addressed the issue of joint pedestrian access and was disappointed that applicant and Yacht Club had not come to an agreement or conclusion to the joint access. He felt that because Riverside Center was first in line, it was not fair to hold them up because the adjoining property was still in conceptual stages. He stated that both projects would suffer if they are not tied together. He felt that Arnold had gone as far as he could and suggested that project is acceptable except that if project does not proceed within the next 90 days or the beginning of the next construction season, that there has to be another solution to the joint access. Both parties need to formulate an acceptable solution for the Commission. Discussion followed.
