Mr. Malone said that the plans did not provide any detail of the planting areas. 1V4r. Hockman said that HH Gregg would match the plantings for Va1ue City Furniture. As the types of plantings for VCF were not reviewed by the ARB, Ms. Wenger said that the Board should make specific recommendations for the planting areas for HH Gregg. Mr. Malone suggested altematfng groupings of evergreens, such as junipers, along with Stella d'Oro da.ylilies, which would bloom yellow to accent the gold building trim. It was also discussed that there may be an existing tree in the side planting area which would be preserved. The,Board discussed options for barriers in lieu of steel bollards. They felt that planters should be fiarther explored, but also felt that decorative brick piers matching the building materials would be an acceptable alternative. The Board discussed the proposed wall sign. Ms. Nader asked the applicant if the sign was the store's typical proportion. Mr. Hockman said it was compazable, and that standard letters aze 88". Generally, the Board felt the sign looked more massive than the VCF sign because it was a single row and resulted in more square footage of sign. NIs. Nader moved to approve the proposal for HH Gregg with the following recommenaiations: 1. The lbrick and EIFS materials will matcln Value City Furniture. 2. In lieu of bollard, the applicant may install planters or decorative brick piers. 3. Roof top units will not be visible or will be screened. 4. The decorative lights fiztures will be of a darker accent colox to match the brick or similar. 5. A rowlock on top of the upper soldier course of brick will be addesi to create a projection. 6. The plsnter areas will have an alternating mix of evergreens and Stella d'Oro daylilies with premium grade ground cover muleh (not cypress). 7. The height of the wall sign will be less than the Value City Furniture sign Mr. Malone seconded tlhe ffiotion, which was unanimously approved. ADJOURNMENT: The meeting adjourned at 6:15 p.m. ?
