Staff presented the item to the Design Review Committee. Conversation ensued between
Committee members, staff, and the applicant. The Committee members commented on various
topics: Inquired how on-site circulation and gates would work in between the three proposed
buildings/properties and future tenants. Also recommended that the developer consider
widening the north-south on-site driveway off 9th Street to accommodate multiple lanes of traffic
in an effort to avoid adverse on-site queueing between tenants. The applicant agreed that they
would further analyze this idea.
Committee members asked about the wall height along the northerly property line, in between
the proposed project and existing residences, relative to screening, and elevations in between
the project site and adjacent residential properties. The developer provided additional context
relative to their conversations with adjacent residents, and staff noted that the applicant could
apply for an increase in wall height at a later date, depending on any additional conversations
with the neighbors. Committee members also inquired as to what options might be available
for the layout of the parcel upon which the Baker House is located. Staff informed the
Committee members that these details were part of ongoing discussions between City staff
and the applicant relative to the Development Agreement proposed as part of the project, and
that more information will be made available for the full Planning Commission’s review at the
appropriate time. Lastly, Committee members also recommended that staff incorporate historic
photos of the Baker House into the project review material for additional context.
Recommended approval to PC. 2-0 Vote.
