DR88-24 - DICKER-WAR)IINGTON (Brett) Storefront revisions to Pad "D".

A solution to the applicants concerns and the Committee's concerns was agreed upon and will be forwarded to the Planning Commission for review and approval at the October 26, 1988 meeting. DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 6:00 - 6:30 Debra October 6, 1988 DEVELOPMENT REVIEW 88-01 - SAN ANTONIO COMMUNITY HOSPITAL Design review of various items for the previously approved ambulatory care center located at the southeast corner of Milliken Avenue and Church Street within the Terra Vista Planned Community - APN: Staff Comments: 1. Final design of the project monumentation at the intersection of Milliken and Church Streets. This item is required to be reviewed by the Committee as a condition of approval. 2. Building elevations for Phase One of the ambulatory care building. The architecture of this building as approved indicated full buildout (Phase 2 expansion) of the facility. Construction of the first phase does make adjustments for future expansion in certain areas of the building. The phase one only construction should be reviewed by the Committee. 3. Revised entry plaza at north entrance. The drive aisle has been expanded directly in front of the entrance to allow vehicles to pull out of the way of moving traffic. this design also allows the overhead canopy to extend to the drive aisle without obstructing movement of fire vehicles. This has reduced the amount of hardscape directly in front of the entry, however, adequate seating and pedestrian area is maintained in the alternate design. 4. As a condition of approval all sidewalk and hardscape areas were required to be exposed aggregate with a smooth finish band pattern. The applicant is requesting that this condition be modified to allow an alternate decorative pavement. Details of the four issues will be available to review at the meeting. Additional information can also be explained by the applicant at that time. Design Review Committee A~tion: Members Present: Peter Tolstoy, Larry McNiel, Dan Coleman Staff Planner: Debra Meier DESIGN'REVIEW COMMENTS DR 88-01 - San Antonio Community Hospital October 6, lg88 Page 2 1. Final design of project monumentation at the intersection of Milliken and Church Streets approved as presented by the applicant. 2. Building elevations of Phase One of the ambulatory care building. The Committee suggested that the applicant reconsider critical elevations of the building, particularly the west elevation, and return to Design Review Committee for a final recommendation to the full commission. 3. Revised entry plaza at north entrance approved as presented by the applicant. 4. Sidewalk/Hardscape area: The Committee recommended a compromise regarding the exposed aggregate treatment as follows: a) Exposed aggregate with smooth finish band shall be used in the plaza area at Milliken and Church and on the pedestrian spine connecting the corner monumentation to the north building entrance. b) Heavy salt finish to be used on all other sidewalks throughout the project. c) The applicant explained that paver tiles are to be used within the north building entrance plaza. At the south entrance the salt finish may be used for the development of Phase One. When Phase Two is developed and the overhead canopy is built the salt-finish shall be replaced with tile pavers or exposed aggregate.

The future building at the southeast corner of the site portrays a drive-thru concept which must comply with Planning Commission policy at time of design review for the structure. 3. Delivery truck routing should arrive via Base Line Road, not Victoria Park Lane. 4. Relocation of median island break on Victoria Park Lane has not been supported by Engineering staff. B. Phase One Site Plan Staff has identified the following general areas of concern regarding Phase One: 1. Circulation conflicts in front of the proposed service station. 2. Adequate tree planting within main plaza area. 3. Project entry statements from Victoria Park Lane and Base Line Road. C. Architecture 1.
