The applicant is now requesting design review approval for some modifications to the previously approved design. In general these modifications consist of: 1. Reduction in building size by approximately 300 sq. ft. 2. Eliminate deck from west elevation and add bay window. 3. Eliminate garage projection beyond building as shown on south elevation. 4. Revised windows and window treatment. 5. Fireplace changed from stone to stucco. 6. Roofing material changed from cedar shake to asphalt shingles. In addition, the retaining walls along the cut side of the driveway will no longer be required. The solid rock encountered in the driveway excavation has eliminated the need for these retaining walls. This change is not reflected on the revised drawings. STAFF COMMENTS The revised plans seem to retain the general appearance and design characteristics of the original approved design. The most significant changes appear to be to the west elevation with the elimination of the porch and the change in roofing materials from cedar shake to asphalt shingles. The previous approval contained two conditions: 1. A more thoroughly developed landscape plan be submitted for the staff to review and approve, prior to issuance of a building permit; and 2. Engineered drawings for the retainage be submitted with the building permit application. ---N Staff Report to the Planning and Zoning Commission July 18, 1989 Lot 53, Block 3, Wild -dge Tom Ptach Residence Design Review Modifications Page 2 of 3 Condition Number 2 is no longer necessary with the rock encountered in the driveway excavation.

The proposed development consists of an approximately 10,500 sq. ft. masonry building with a metal roof and matching metal trim.

Allowed uses in the I/C Zone District include warehouse, laboratories, electrical substations, light manufacturing plants, wholesale sales outlets, showrooms, industrial, construction and wholesale offices and accessory buildings. General commercial offices are allowed only as a special review use.
