Sign (Wall & Projecting)
Submitted by Marie Cipolletta, Signarama
a) Staff notes the applicant is proposing a wall and projecting signs.
b) The Architectural Design Standards state signs shall have a matte finish. Revise plans to depict a matte finish.
c) Question if the signs will be illuminated. Staff notes internal illumination is prohibited per the Land Development Code.
d) The Architectural Design Standards state “Storefronts with common architectural elements should have signs that share continuity of design so that the placement and design of individual signs contribute to the cohesive appearance created by the common architectural elements. Elements of the sign should create an overall cohesive design, reflect simplicity, avoid visual clutter and ensure legibility.” Staff suggests the projecting sign to depict raised letters and a raised boarder in order to create a more cohesive design with neighboring storefronts. | | |

Fence (4’ & 6’ Vinyl)
Submitted by Vicki Marshall
a) The Architectural Design Standards state fence heights and materials shall be compatible with their site location and surrounding development. Fences in the front yard shall be more formal in design and lower in height when sited close to the street or sidewalk. Fences in the rear yard offer more flexibility with greater allowance for height and design. Staff notes the applicant is proposing a 6 foot & 4-foot three rail wood fence that will incorporate a vinyl lattice system at the bottom. Question the overall design and the transition of the 4-foot fence to the 6-foot fence.
b) The Land Development Code has the following code sections relative to fence height:
- The maximum height (excluding incidental decorative items) at any point shall not exceed four feet above the elevation of the surface of the ground.
- To the rear of the main mass of the principal structure, the maximum height shall not exceed at any point six feet above the elevation of the surface of the ground

Alteration (Windows)
Submitted by Greg Chaplin

Replacement of missing features shall be substantiated by documentary, physical, or pictorial evidence. Staff notes the applicant is proposing to replace a pair of double hung windows on the north and south elevations and a casement window on the east elevation.

Addition (Attached Garage)
Submitted by Nate Bailey, Hara Architects
a) The Architectural Design Standards state wings may not be larger or taller than the main body of the structure, but they may be the same height. Revise the plans to depict the addition as being the same height or lower than the main body.
b) The Architectural Design Standards state large expanses of blank wall are to be avoided. Fenestration placement should be at a maximum of approximately every 12 feet. Revise plans to depict fenestration on the left side of house elevation. Additionally, suggest adding a window to the first-floor garage addition on the right-side elevation.
c) The Architectural Design Standards state the materials used in any mass must be applied consistently on that mass on all sides of the structure. Staff notes the right-side elevation depicts board & batten siding on the same wall plane as horizontal lap siding with a trim board to separate the two materials on the right-side elevation. Revise the plans to depict a more consistent siding material.

New Residential Construction (Two-story single-family dwelling)
Submitted by Tony Lunardi, LDA Builders
a) The Architectural Design Standards state projections which extend out from the mass to which they are attached more than five feel will be treated as wings. The front face of the main body must sit forward at least 18" from the front face of wings. Staff notes the master bedroom projects approximately 6 feet from the main mass. Revise the plans (elevations, floor plan, site plan) to reduce this projection to meet this requirement.
b) The Architectural Design Standards state All chimneys must match the foundation material. Fireplace vents, when incorporated, shall be located at the rear elevation. Revise the elevations to show the foundation material and chimney material to match to meet this requirement.
c) Revise rear elevation to reduce the size of the three windows to provide additional separation between the windows and the corner/trim.
d) Question the left elevation and approximate 60-foot wall span without a break in the massing. | | |
