Yes garage door can encroach on the 4ft minimum floor height requirement as long as the main floor of the building itself remains at least 14ft tall. [Pg. 30]

Other/Miscellaneous

The building footprint has expanded substantially replacing a surface parking lot and onsite stormwater detention in favor of off site direct discharge to the City’s stormwater system. It is our understanding that this direct discharge is contingent on the City’s capital improvement project of the storm water system that serves this site and that a meeting is scheduled next week to discuss this project’s participation in that capital improvement project. Should the project later be revised to again include onsite stormwater treatment, would you anticipate re-designing the building once more in order to include a surface parking lot?

Other/Miscellaneous

How are you accounting for modification of the shape of the plaza space to accommodate the required dedication of the 25ft radius on the SW corner of 3rd St and Pioneer? Will this modification require changes to the building shape or design? If so, this would either delay the official meeting with the Design Review Board or we could proceed with the design review board meeting with your understanding that significant alterations to the approved design would have to be re-evaluated by the Board.

Other/Miscellaneous

The requested Auto Turn analysis was not provided in this last resubmittal for the preliminary site plan permit. How are you accounting for any changes that may need to be made to the building once that sight distance analysis is completed? Again any significant changes made to the building after the Board has issued a decision will have to be re-evaluated by the Board.

Add Submittal Item: Misc

Additional Submittal Item Required: The design review documents submitted were exceptionally thorough which is much appreciated. There was one item that we need a little more information on however in order to get this project on the earliest possible design review meeting. For the calculations for the percentages of the materials for each façade (pg. 29 of the submittal, section 4.B.6 Façade Materials). It was difficult to tell what material was being counted as high quality material exactly. Our concern is that the windows may be being counted toward the high quality material calculations but it is impossible to tell one way or the other from the submitted information. A color key would be helpful to help distinguish each material on the graphics and a breakdown of the square footage of each material that is being counted toward the percent calculation. Please resubmit a revised package that includes this updated information to the online permits portal at your earliest convenience.
