ARCHITECTURAL BOARD OF REVIEW JULY 16, 1986 2) Carter Plaza, 24749 Lorain Road Proposal to construct two retail buildings (one to be to existing building at 24749 Lorai:n Road, (Heard by July 8, 1986). PAGE 3 immediately adjacent Planning Commission Mr. G. Draeger, architect, presented plan which reflects the recommenda- tions of Planning Commission: 5' board on board fence will be installed on east and west property lines; dumpster which serves building "A" has been relocated between the existing building and building "A"; dumpster for building "B" is enclosed with a board on board fence. Building will be white split face block with a yellow band trim; mansard will be brown asphalt shake shingles; windows will be clear glass with dark bronze frames; coping wi11 be dark bronze. All lights will be on dark bronze poles. Mansard will be carried out on the existing building so that it will match the rest of the complex. Electrical service will be under- ground, but there is no definite location for the transformer. Mr. Pattison had sent word that he believed that the number of handicapped spaces should be reduced and perhaps relocated closer to the ramps. Mr. Draeger explained that 7 spaces were required for the first 100 spaces; that he had distributed the spaces so that they would service all portions of the building; but he would restudy them and agreed that he could possibly rearrange the ramps so that they would be closer to the spaces. The residentially zoned property at the rear of this 1ot is a natural buffer. Roof top equipment will be totally screened with a brown board on board fence to match the roof. No signage is proposed at present, Mr. Ebin questioned if the signs would be on the mansard. Mr. Carter, the owner, stated they he would develop a criteria.for signs on the mansa'rd and that he would require a can type sign. Since the slope on the roof is steep, signs will be closed in; no brackets will be extending out from the roof. S. Ebin moved to approve the plans with the recommendation that placement of the handicapped spaces be studied and with the understanding that an acceptable sign criteria package wi11 be developed and presented to the City, seconded by J. Britton, and unanimously approved. 3) Ponderosa, Inc., 25779 Lorain Rd. Proposal to construct an addition to front of building. (Heard by Planning Commission July 8, 1986). Mr. T. Jenk submitted revised site plan and explained that when restau- rant originally opened there were 200 seats and parking spaces had been approved, but apparently no variance had been granted. In order to con- form to code they wi11 be relocating the existing dumpster; re-working curbs to pick up. 4 spaces and will be eliminating 3 tables. He also advised that they had never had a problem with parking as it is now. Building Commissioner Spino stated that in many cases where there are large parking.lots experience has shown that there is more parking than needed. Mr. Ebin was concerned that in order to gain these spaces some of the landscaping wi11 be removed. Mr. Jenk presented photographs of a restaurant which has been remodeled. The new addition will replace the existing porch to install an 8' by 49' addition. Existing brick will remain on sides and rear of building, new facade will have'an a1u-= minium standing seam roof (baked on burgandy paint) with cream colored stenni panels below (material is similar to masonite with an aggregate
