rf . <br />mounts, shall be the wash type, they will not project the lighting out; the three bollard type lights in front <br />are accepted as presented. The motion was seconded by D. Cameron Alston, and unauunously approved. <br />3) Lone Star Steakhouse and Saloon of Ohio, located on the south side of Country Club <br />Boulevard, east of Great Northern Blvd. and west of Columbia Road. <br />Proposal to construct restaurant. ' <br />Heard by architectural review board July 19, 1995. <br />Mr. Newberry, engineer, presented revised plans and introduced Mr. Colson, of Lone Star, and Mr. <br />Kaufmann, sign cousultaut. He explained that sidewalks have been added along Cou.ntry Club Boulevard, <br />from Country Club into the site, and then across the front of the building; there will be a sidewalk on the <br />west side of the site toward the Macaroni Grill Restaurant. He advised that previously they had presented <br />a photometric design of the lighting, and tonight he presented cuts of the actual fi}ctures. They will be <br />using 400 watt metal halide on 25 foot poles with cut offfixtures similar to the others in this development <br />and there will be no spillage. By rotatiug the building ou the site (presented at the July l lth meeting) <br />there will be no need for variances even if the expansion is constructed. Mr. Zergott has talked with their <br />laudscapers who had presented a revised landscape plan wluch will be submitted to Mr. Zergott for his <br />final approval. The trash enclosure has been moved since the original location would not have been <br />accessible to the truck. It will now be opposite the first drive, however the architectural review board had <br />requested that it be moved further south, but they are concemed this would be too far away from the <br />door and eould cause problems. Mr. Newberry clarified that the trash enclosure would be a masonry <br />enclosure to match the brick on the building, and the gate will be steel with a wood siding painted to <br />match the brick. The colors and materials of the building are the same as originally presented. The <br />architectural review board had recommended two sigus on the building, instead of three, with one <br />grouud sign. The review board had no preference as to which elevations the two wall signs should be on. <br />They had also had a problem with mounting the wall signs on the raceway. Mr. Colson stated that <br />catclung suow was their main argument against it. Mr. Kaufinauu, their sign consultant, advised that the <br />raceway is a safety factor because all the wiriug and transformers are housed within the raceways which <br />will be painted to match the buildiug. He also noted that affixing the letters to the raceway reduces the <br />penetrations that must be made in the wall. To secure the individual letters they would need to drill two <br />holes through the wall for each "and put all the wiring, etc. inside the parapet wall. He believed that the <br />raceway was much safer. They have agreed to drop the "open" sign on the monument sign_ Mr. Herbster <br />questioned the height of the poles since he thought the commission had requested 18 foot poles. Mr. <br />Newberry advised that the 25 foot poles matclf those now on the property. Regarding the wind strut that <br />was noticed by the A.R.B. in the photograph, tlie developers stated that if there had to be one it would be <br />relocated or concealed. They have no intention of having any of the mechanical equipment visible on the <br />roof? even if they had to raise the parapets. Mr. Colson explained the problems that Mr. Zergott had seen <br />with the laudscape plan, since he was concemed that there would not be enough green in the winter, that <br />some of the materials would not survive in this climate and that the plantings were too dense. He had also <br />asked that they arrange the outer perimeter plantings in beds wluch they have done and they have <br />included some additional shrubs there. It was noted that the forester had advised that the only trees that <br />would be saved were along the south. Vice Chau7nau Manning believed that the recommendation should <br />be that there be no sign on the south side, only the on the north and west side. The architectural review <br />board had left it up to them where the signs would go. Mr. Colson stated that, if they have to choose, <br />they would choose to have it on the south. Mr. Brennan did not believe that it could be seen from the <br />3 <br />_?
