Subsequently, the City Planner granted approval of the master plan. A condition of approval requires that all future structures and buildings be subjected to Design Review Committee review and approval. Staff Comments: The design, materials and color for the fuel island, the car wash building, the carport and the shop building are consistent with the main administration building for the corporate yard.

Associated with this project is Tree Removal Permit 87-52, requesting the removal of 13 mature trees consisting of one Bottle tree, 5 Elm trees, 5 Sycamores and I Pepper tree. Design Paraeters: The Committee on November 19, 1987 reviewed the proposed project and identified many design and technical issues. Attached for your reference is a copy of the previous Design Review comments. The Committee stated that revised plans must be submitted for review again. Staff has met with the developer and went over all the identified design and technical issues. The developer will be revising the plans to address the Committee concerns. These plans will be available for your review at the meeting. Oesign Review Committee Action: Members Present: Larry McNiel, Suzanne Chitiea, Otto Kroutil Staff Planner: Nancy Fong The Committee reviewed the revised development plans and stated that most of the technical and design issues raised at last November 19, 1987 meeting were resolved. However the Commi tree stated that there are a couple more major concerns that need to be refined and resolved prior to Planning Commission meeting. The Commi tree provided directions to the applicant in preparing plans to address and resolve those major concerns as follows: 1. The activity center design is acceptable, however, the developer should consider using the same authentic river rock treatment to any proposed monument sign. 2. The applicant has provided enlargement of details and full material samples for Committee to review. Such detail s as the painted smooth finish plaster, ½ circle gutter, rough finish stucco over, roof edge detail, steel edge braces, textured pavement surface etc. However, the Commi tree is still concerned with the simpl e, clean style and stated that additional architectural elements and detailing should be provided. They are as follows: DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS CUP 87-26 - OAS Investors January 7, 1988 Page 2 a. more richness to the roof edge. b. mul ti-pane window with either wood or greyish tone aluminum mullion. c. Variation to storefront design such as "pop-out", "recess in", river rock base, etc. 3. The proposed building G architectural treatment at the corner of San Bernardi no Road and Vineyard does not meet the Commi ttee's expectation . The corner architectural treatment to the building should be substantial and bold enough to serve as a secondary focal point. It should be able to attract and draw north, south and east bound traffic to use the main access off San Bernardino Road. 4. The first driveway off San Bernardino Road should be redesigned, as the main entry way to the site by expanding the landscaping on the east side of the driveway and by softening the east elevation of building F through terracing the second story. 5. The proposed architecture for Souplantation (building A) is not consistent with the style established in the enti re center. The elevations should be designed to tie the building as part of the center especially in area of roof line, architectural element, and detailing such as color, material, window mullions, trellis, etc. The Committee al so stated that neon signs are not acceptable while the proposed light fixtures should be compatible to the one used by the center and should not be of bright lights. 6. The above items should be resolved prior to Planning Commission meeting. If these items have not been resolved by then, they would be placed as a condition of approval and to be resolved prior to plan check process.
