Per PMC 20.26.300 (1)(c), for continuous rooflines that exceed 50 feet in length on buildings with a flat, gabled, hopped, or similar roof, or on a roofline with slopes of less than three feet vertical to 12 feet horizontal, the following methods shall be used:
(i) The height of the visible roofline must change at least four feet if the adjacent roof segments are less than 50 feet in length.
(ii) The height of the visible roofline must change at least eight feet if the adjacent roof segments are 50 feet or more in length.
The roof line is proposed to be 70 and the visible roof line only changes 6'6" rather than the required 8' minimum for a 50'+ roof line.
Please adjust plans accordingly. [elevations, A3.0]

The north elevation is required to have no less than 60% of the surface area of the surface area of the wall consist of windows and/or transparent doorways (PMC 20.26.300 (3)(d)). Please update the elevations to meet this requirement and provide calculations on the elevation plans proving that the 60% requirement is being met.
The calculation was not provided on the elevation plan drawings. You noted that 750 SF of the northern facade would be made up of glass, but did not include the calculation on the elevations. Please provide the calculation that proves the 60% requirement is being met. [elevations, A3.0]

As noted in the previous review and in an e-mail from 05/10/2023, there needs to be 8' of landscaping followed by 8' of plaza measured from the dedicated property line interior to the site in the three areas between the driveways. This means that the building will need to be setback 16' from the dedicated property line interior to the site. [site and landscape plan, EN-04]

The wall plane for buildings which contain two or more stories and that will be visible from a public street shall not be wider than two and one-half times the height of the wall plane per PMC 20.26.300 (1)(a).
Please confirm whether this area is inset from the garages or if it is all one continuous facade. The 2dimensional plans and elevations make it difficult to determine whether it is continuous or not.

The south elevation of the building is visible from a public street and contains 400 square feet of surface area without windows, doors, building wall modulation, or other architectural features. Two screen or treat the wall, please choose two of the following methods or techniques to address this blank wall per PMC 20.26.300 (2)(a):
(i) Installation of a vertical trellis with climbing vines or plant material in front of the blank wall;
(ii) Providing a landscaped strip at least 10 feet in width in front of the blank wall and planted with plant materials which will obscure or screen at least 50 percent of the blank wall within three years;
(iii) Use of alternate building materials or wall textures in the exterior treatment of the blank wall; or
(iv) Use of functional or nonfunctional architectural features such as windows, doors, pillars, columns, awnings, roofs, etc., which cover at least 25 percent of the wall surface.
The trellis is shown on the elevations, but the 10' landscape strip abutting the southern facade is not shown on the site plan - though it was noted in the nonresidential design review form. Please show the 10' landscape strip abutting the southern facade as well as the required 6' perimeter landscaping along the southern property line on the site plan.

In the conditional use permit application, it is stated that the intent for the pedestrian plaza space is to have a "woonerf" feel and characteristics. It is stated that city-standard landscape buffer for the parking will be required and that a plaza will be provided along the building frontage and is proposed to double as access to roll-up garage entries to each unit. Decorative hard surfacing is proposed to be in the area along with streetscape features such as planters and small seating areas located in non-travel areas between the units. The city is still generally receptive to this "woonerf"-type proposal. However, additional detailed plans for this "woonerf" concept are required in your re-submittal to better understand the concept, conduct review, and make the CUP findings. Staff will need to discuss the process and criteria for this requested deviation from the design standards. Please provide scaled elevations and plans that reflect this design intent.

Per PMC 20.26.300 (3)(b)(i) the 8' plaza area shall be covered by awnings covering at least six feet of the plaza space in depth. Right now, the proposed awning only covers about three feet of the plaza space and is only proposed above the entry doors, but not of the roll up garages. Please amend this awning space to cover at least 6' of the depth of the plaza space and cover all doors along the northern facade. [elevations, A3.0]

In the conditional use permit application, it is stated that the intent for the pedestrian plaza space is to have a "woonerf" feel and characteristics. It is stated that city-standard landscape buffer for the parking will be required and that a plaza will be provided along the building frontage and is proposed to double as access to roll-up garage entries to each unit. Decorative hard surfacing is proposed to be in the area along with streetscape features such as planters and small seating areas located in non-travel areas between the units. The city is still generally receptive to this "woonerf"-type proposal. However, additional detailed plans for this "woonerf" concept are required in your re-submittal to better understand the concept, conduct review, and make the CUP findings. Staff will need to discuss the process and criteria for this requested deviation from the design standards. Please provide scaled elevations and plans that reflect this design intent.
If the "woonerf" design is not intended to be pursued, please adjust plans and note that perimeter landscaping is required along the front property line in addition to the pedestrian plaza. Per PMC 20.26.300 (3)(b)(iii)(B), you could propose 8' front yard perimeter landscaping with an 8' pedestrian plaza space. [landscape plan, EN-03]
