Referred from Planning Commission July 12, 1988. Mr. Bradshaw presented revised site plan which shows the building re- located to the west side of the property as recommended by the Planning Commission and pictures of the adjacent properties, •Building Commissioner Conway reminded him that the Commission had requested an expanded site plan showing the adjacent,drives. He will present this to the Planning Commission. Canopy will be a"Sohiol' red fabric laminated with plexiglass, and since the Commission had advised that it could not be backlighted, they will illuminate the letters if possible. The pole sign will be approximately 39 square feet. The building will be split face block in a gray with white specks and trimmed with a blue stripe; overhead doors will be glass with mill finished aluminium bottom panels and frames; mechanical units will be inside the building; dumpster will be enclosed with a wall on three sides and a chain link gate; and because the location of the building was changed, a retaining wall will be constructed on the east property line, Mr, Zergott believed that the gray block looks too much like concrete block and would prefer a white block. Mr. Bradshaw presented a sa.mple of another block from Alcron Brick and Block Company in which the white was a bit more predominate and explained that most of their buildings are gray, but they could go to the white. The Board prefers the white. Mr. Zergott suggested a board on board gate on the dumpster enclosure instead of chain link and also that three shade trees be planted on either side of the building (pin oaks were shown on original plan) and further that they change the.emerald gaiety to juniper or taxus. There are no lights on the building since the interior is we11.].igPited, but the Board recommendecl that an additional pole light be installed in the landscaped bed on the north east corner of the parking lot. B. Zergott moved to approve the Valvoline proposal with the following recommendations: that the light pole be installed on the north east corner of the parking lot (in landscaped area); adding 6 shade trees on both the east and west sides of the property (as indicated on signed plans); changing the euonymus gaiety to a.variety of juniper or taxus; wooden board on board gates are to be ins,taXled on dumpster enclosure; block on building should be changed from gray to white, and to accept the pole sign and canopy sign as presented, seconded by T. Gallagher, and unanimously approved. V, ADJOURNMENT: The meeting was adjourned at 5:55 p,m, B. Zergottt Acting Cha.irman B. Oring, Clerk of Commissions
