.,.? this wall matters as long as they reface it to match the C. V. S. building. Mr. Yager accepted the brick as well as the stucco in the sign band area but had some concerns regard.ing the plexiglass materiaL The clerk questioned if there was a print out available showing the style, colors, and manufacturors of the materials. Although Mr. Petros did not have a colored rendering of the building, he assured the board all materials will match the C. V. S. building and agreed to provide the clerk with a listing of materials for the file. Mr. Yager noted the proportions of the sign facia takes away from the columns, as it appears as if the facia is pushing down the columns rather than the columns supporting the building. He suggested taking eight to ten inches off the sign band area to allow for the enlargement of the columns. Mr. Zergott suggested incorporating brick along the bottom 2 or three feet of the building as the E.F.I. S. system will deteriorate over time. Mr. Petros agreed to raise the columns accordingly and incorporate the brick along the bottom two feet of the building as suggested. Mr. Yager noted there are to be no visible mechanical units and questioned the height of the parapet. Mr. Petros stated the parapet is approximately 18 inches high and he agreed to hide the roof top equipment. It was noted the doors in the back will be painted to match the brick. M. Yager motioned to recommend approval of the Retail Today (Former Krogars Supermarket) located on the East side of Clague Road, South adjacent to the proposed CVS Pharmacy, a proposal consisting of renovations and reduction of existing structure, with the following comments: that the columns grow to be more in porportion and reduce the phyisical size of the sign band to accomodate it; that the brick base be high enough to absorb any punishment from the carts and such; and that there be no visible mechanical units. The motion was seconded by B. Zergott and unanimously approved. It was noted final approval on this submission may be delayed until August, as council has taken a vacation for the entire month of July. 2) Bakers Square 24025 Lorain Road: Proposal consists of exterior re-imaging, lighting, and signage. Refened by planning commission May 26, 1998. Mr. Forester, architect presented the proposal and introduced W. Tapanic, local general manager and Mr. Bateman, local associate manager. Mr. Forester explained the proposal includes: adding one pole light with fixture on the north side of the building; adding an extra fixtu.re to the existing pole lights that are directed toward the restaurant; painting the outside ofthe building; replacing the front entry doors; replacing the roof with a new standing seam metal roof in lieu of concrete tile; a new gable dormer on the front elevation to allow an area for wall signage; incoiporating roof lights to match other Baker's Square buildings in the area; adding some accent lighting to the front to outline the roof; and the overhead soffit lights will be replaced with directional down light only. Photographs were presented showing what the building is to look like during different times of the day and iught. Mr. Yager questioned if there is any overIlow from the street light at the front of the building onto this lot. Mr. Forester responded generally the street lights would have little illumination on the lot as they are d.irected towards the street. He noted the amount of illumination from the existing street lights were not included in the photometric plan presented. In response to a question from Mr. Yager, Mr. Forester agreed the style of the lights would match the existing. He stated the pole lights will have both a rear integral cut-off shield as well as an external and side mounted shield. The intent of using the shields was to reduce the amount of lighting to zero foot candles at the property line: Pictures were presented showing the lights mounted on the roof top. In reviewing the drawings, Mr. Yager noted the fixhue style for the roof lights will detract from the appearance of the building. He
