PR 86-19 - FORECAST Review of Site Plan and Architecture for (Debra) proposed office building Committee Action: The Committee would prefer a multi-story building with architecture exemplary of the Haven Avenue Overlay concept. This approach would provide additional land area for parking and a pedestrian/employee plaza. Previous approval of the driveway between parcels 2 and 3 could be reconsidered since this is not intended to be a restaurant as applicant had indicated to Planning Commission on 1/11/86. DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 6:00 - 6:30 Dino March 20, 1986 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FOR DEVELOPMENT REVIEW 86-02 DARLING The development of a 189,640 square foot warehouse addition to an existing warehouse building on 11.74 acres of land in the General Industrial (Subarea 1) District located on the east side of Baker Avenue and the north side of the AT & SF Railroad right-of-way - APN: 207-27-25. Oesign Parameters: The project site is currently being used as a warehouse facility for Patrini Shoes. The properties to the north and east are vacant industrially zoned lots. South of the project site is the AT & SF Railroad right-of-way, and on the west side of the site, across Baker Avenue, are single-family homes. The northwest corner of the project site abutts two non-conforming single- family residences. It is important that a reasonable buffer be created at the boundary line between the residential uses and the project site. Staff Co~l)ents: Site Plan: 1. Provide for open spaces equiped with benches or other furniture, to create an outdoor eating plaza. 2. Provide a 10 foot landscape buffer along the north/south property lines between the project site (northwest corner) and the adjacent residential lot. Architecture: 1. Provide typical concrete fin walls along the projects south elevation, similar to the north elevation design, to break-up the long expanses of blank wall. 2. Create a stronger architectural statement along the Baker Avenue and Feron Boulevard building elevations. 3. Provide architectural variation in order to break up the long expanses of blank wall. 4. The proposed orange building accent band color is too intense. A subtle color should be used. 5. Change accent band directions in various locations around the proposed and existing buildings. Landscaping: Provide a continuous and dense landscaping, such as increased number of 'trees, specimen size trees and hedgerow, along the south property line at the truck parking area with shrubs and ground cover.
