ARCHITECTURAL BOARD OF REVIEW JUNE 18, 1986 PAGE 5 not legal, and also agreed that this type sign is not attractive. Mr. Hayden is willing to install a ground sign and, if necessary, install small signs under the roof 1ine. Mr. Pattison suggested that ground sign be installed at westerly end of parking area with a landscaped area around it. This will allow for the required 7' set back. Dumpster is not shown on p1an, but Mr. Draeger explained that it would be in the rear and would not be visible and suggested that they might screen it with landscaping. Board suggested that trash could be kept inside or else the dumpster must be screened, not only for sight but to keep trash con- tained in one area, Mr. Draeger advised that there were no storm sewers in the area, and after consulting with the City Engineer, they are plan- ning to install a french drain in the rear of the property which is not to be developed. Board would like the area covered over with grass and the developers will check this out with the City Engineer to see if that would be workable. It has not been decided if there will be roof top equipment, they may put the condenser on the ground. If it is on the roof, Mr. Ebin want it screened in all directions. The architect is not sure if elect'rical service will be brought into each unit or if a trans- former will be used. Mr. Ebin would like the plans to be more complete. D. Pattison moved to approve the plans with the following recommendations: taking intb account that the green area west of the driveway be amended to incorporate the ground sign with the 7' set back as per ordinance, that no signage occur on the roofs; that mechanical equipment not occur on the roof; or b.e resubmitted to this Board, if it is later decided that it will; that trash either be contained within the building or be screened adjacent to the building or in a parking space at the rear of the property, and that this screening be both a visual screening from all directions, as well as, containing wind blown trash; more over, we feel that the driveways at 13' are tight but adequate in that there are two provided and that two wi.11 always be provided even in the future expansion; and with the under- standing that electric service is being brought to the building and to the sign from underground, seconded by J. Britton, and unanimously approved. II. OLD BUSINESS: (Continued at this point) For the fourth time Mr. Ebin mentioned the ground sign on Plaza West which still has overhead wires. A letter stating these would be placed underground had been presented at the last meeting, however,wi`res have . not been relocated. Mr. Ebin requests that the sign be disconnected until this is accomplished. Mrs. Case also complained about the debris behind this same shopping center and mentioned that there is also a rusty pipe showing. The Building De- partment will check on this. Mr. Pattison is requesting that the Building Department have signs brought upto code when sign faces are changed. Mr. Pattison would like the building Department to check on the Ton.y.'s Barber Shop addition, they are building right up to the property line.and there are openings in the wa11 adjacent to tha.t line which is against the code.
