5. UNFINISHED BUSINESS
A. United Artists - Landscaping Plan
Angelo Corva, architect, was present at the meeting and said he would
be glad to answer questions. He said the reason he did not put landscaping
at the north end was for visibility. Also because of the elevation on the
south end of the property, he thought it may be difficult to berm that
location. He presented a revised landscaping plan for the Board to consider.
Secretary Ekstrand suggested some kind of shrubs be planted at the
north end of the site. This would give a nice appearance but not block
visibility of drivers.
Board Member Sjolander moved the Board recommend approval of the
proposed landscaping plan for United Artists Theater subject to the
following conditions:
Mk
