i--?I _.%? 2) Chuck E. Cheese, 26104 Cneat Northern Shopping Center. Revised proposal to install awilings on existing building. Heard by planning commission October 8, 1996. Heard by arclutectural review board November 20, 1996. 1VIr. Wagner, sign contractor, presented the proposal and asked that it- be approved as recommended by the architectural review board. He was not at that meeting, but he understood that one of the recommendations was to eluninate the awuiiigs from the side elevation that was shared with Tony Roma's so the awnings would only be on the front, or entrance, elevation. Mrs. O'Rourke read the others conditions: that the paint should be coordiuated with Tony Roma's, and that the goose ueck lighting be used. Chuck E. Cheese has agreed to paint the building, but he does not know what color they intend to paint it. Mr. Corsi, representing the owner of the building, stated that he believed that they had agreed to match the color of the Tony Roma's area and they would have the color samples or chips on file. The inembers noted that the arclutectural review board has recommended that instead of using a gloss finish, they go with the stucco. Mr. Corsi noted that there are two beige colors on Touy Roma's but they would use the color that was ou the larger mass of the building. Mr. Tallon advised that he wanted both sections of the building painted identically. The meinbers studied the plans. The motion stated that the canopies be removed from the vast majority of the right (south) elevation, and Mr. Koeth asked if all of the canopies on the south would be eliminated. Mr. Wagner brought in a sample of the awning aud advised that they would only install them on the elevation facing Finast. Mr. Brennan believed that lighting it over the top was the same as illumiuating it thus making it a sign. Building Commissioner Conway advised that his determination was, with the overhead lighting it would be considered an arclutectural feature; but back lit awnings would be considered a sign. Fictures were presented of other avvniug with goose neck lighting. The members studied the pictures of similar awnings. 1VIrs. O'Rourke believed that the single lights on this proposal were more attractive than the lights over tlie Boston Market awning wluch were on a strip. The members had no further questions. R. Tallon moved to approve the revised proposal to install awning ou an existing building for Chuck E. Cheese, 26104 Great Northern Shopping Center with all the recommendations of the architectural review board included and also with the stipulations that: there will be no awuings on tlie south side facing the plaza; the wattage of the lights will be the same or less than Tony Roma's; the goose neck lights will be individual as shown; there will be no back lighting of the awnings; there will be a matte finish placed on the awuings to cut down on the reflection. The motion was seconded by A. Manning, and unanimously approved. N. NEW DEVELOPIVIENTS AND SUBDIVISIONS: 1) Cneat Northem Properties Rezoning Request.
