APPROVAL OF AGENDA Boardmember Anitzberger moved approval of the agenda as submitted. Boardmember Holder seconded Ayes - -all 5. UNFINISHED BUSINESS A. Proposed Building Colors - Englewood Shops, Northwest Corner of English Street and Cope Avenue Tom Raymond was present representing the applicant. Mr. Raymond proposed a brown /beige combination of brick and rock -face concrete block with gold flecks for the Englewood Shops at Cope Avenue and English Street. A board member said that this proposal has more brick than is generally proposed at this time and that it was an attractive design. Another board member said he felt it would be attractive if some brick could be added to the back side of the proposed building since it is all one plane, without any part of the building being offset. Mr. Raymond said the back side of the building would be partly hidden because of the hill and the racquetball building to the west. Community Design Review Board -2- . Minutes 12 -12 -89 A board member asked if brick could be added to the sign proposed to be built of block. Mr. Raymond said the sign is proposed to be brick on the bottom and he felt if the entire sign was brick it would have a flat look. Mr. Raymond said the sign would be on a timer to turn off at night. Secretary Ekstrand said the original approval of this proposed center stipulated that the signage criteria for the tenant signage, including the pylon signs, must be submitted to the Review Board for approval. Mr. Raymond asked if the Board would act on the signage for the center at this time also. Boardmember Deans moved: 1. Approval of the proposed brown /beige combination of brick for the Englewood Shops at Cope Avenue and English Street. The proposed rock -face concrete block with gold flecks is approved on the west side provided a minimum of an 8 -inch course of brick be provided on the length of the west side. 2. Approval of the proposed sign, subject to the • addition of an 8 -inch course of brick along the top to match the building. Boardmember Erickson seconded Ayes - -all 6. DESIGN REVIEW A. Building Addition, Setback Variance and CUP - Sarrack's International Wines and Spirits, 2305 Stillwater Road Guy Reithmeyer, Con /Spec Corporation, was present representing the applicant. Mr. Reithmeyer said, regarding staff's recommendation to eliminate the two parking stalls south of the proposed loading dock addition, he would like to revise the site plan to allow one parallel parking space. Staff responded that if the site plan is revised it must meet all development requirements and receive staff approval. Mr. Reithmeyer said he disagreed with the recommended condition which requires building elevations be revised for Board approval incorporating brick into the exterior for aesthetics and compatibility with the adjacent Cardinal Realty offices. Mr. Reithmeyer said the realty office building is a residential design and . this requested addition is a commercial design and he asked the Board for flexibility to design the building 4 Community Design Review Board -3- • Minutes 12 -12 -89 as proposed without brick, but with natural grey tone rock -face block with maroon accent bands and a maroon canopy. The Board seemed to be in agreement that this proposal by Mr. Reithmeyer would be acceptable for the front of the building since the maroon bands and canopy would break up the grey block, but they still found the rock -face block alone for the two -story back of the building unacceptable. Boardmember Deans said he would like to have accurate building elevations resubmitted for Board approval and proposals for the exterior of the building which would help to break up the linearity of the building. Mr. Reithmeyer said the remainder of the conditions of recommendation were reasonable and acceptable. Boardmember Deans moved the Review Board recommend adoption of the resolution approving a conditional use permit for an indefinite period of time for a 20 -foot building addition encroachment into the required 50- foot rear setback area. Approval is based on the findings required by code and due to the addition maintaining the established building setback. Approval is subject to the proposed addition being at least 80% • screened from the abutting residential district. Boardmember Anitzberger seconded Ayes - -all Boardmember Anitzberger moved the Review Board recommend adoption of the resolution approving a 15- foot parking lot setback variance from the north lot line, based on: a. The intent of the ordinance would be met if screening is provided. b. There is an existing grade elevation and some existing landscaping that already partially screens the site. c. Adherence to setback requirements would cause the applicant undue hardship because the taking of right -of -way has left the property unusually shaped, therefore, making complying with setbacks difficult and reducing the area available for parking space. d. The adjacent property is the deep rear yard of an unoccupied property recently purchased by the • State of Minnesota during the widening of Stillwater Road. Community Design Review Board -4- Minutes 12 -12 -89 Approval is subject to screening along the northerly lot line that complies with Section 36 -27 of the City code. Boardmember Deans seconded Ayes - -all Boardmember Deans moved the Review Board recommend approval of site plans date stamped November 17, 1989, for the building addition for Sarrack's at 2305 Stillwater Road, subject to the following conditions: a. Approval by the City Council for a 15 -foot parking lot setback variance from the northerly lot line and approval of a conditional use permit for a 30- foot building setback for the addition from the rear lot line, rather than 50 feet as required by code. b. The site plan shall be revised for staff approval by eliminating the two parking stalls south of the proposed loading dock addition and omitting the paving into the right -of -way north of the intersection of Reaney Avenue and Stillwater Road. Omitting these two parking stalls will require the • office or retail portion of the addition to be reduced by 400 square feet to meet parking regulations. As an alternate, the site plan can be revised and submitted for staff approval by adding two spaces, complying with parking requirements. c. All trash dumpsters shall be stored in screening enclosures with a 100% opaque wooden gate and shall be a color and material compatible with the building. Enclosures shall be protected by concrete - filled steel posts, or the equivalent, anchored in the ground at the front corners of the structure. If the enclosure is masonry, the protective posts may be omitted. d. Any exterior building or roof - mounted equipment shall be decoratively screened and hidden from view. Screening is subject to Board approval. e. Parking areas shall be striped in a double- stripe "hairpin" design and all bituminous areas shall have continuous concrete curbing. Parking lots shall be kept in a continual state of repair. f. If construction has not begun within two years of • approval, Board review shall be repeated. Community Design Review Board -5- • Minutes 12 -12 -89 • g. Site security lighting shall be provided and shall be directed or shielded so not to cause any undue glare onto adjacent properties or roadways. h. If any adjacent property is disturbed or property irons removed due to construction of the site, that property shall be restored and irons replaced by the applicant. i. Grading, drainage, erosion control and utility plans shall be subject to the City Engineer's approval. j. A landscape plan shall be submitted to the Design Review Board for approval. This plan shall include screening along the westerly and northerly property lines that comply with Section 36 -27 of the City code. k. Reflectorized stop signs and handicap parking signs shall be provided. 1. All public boulevard that is disturbed due to this construction shall be restored and resodded. • m.

Signage is not part of this approval. Sign proposals shall be approved by staff, unless City Council or Review Board approval is required. p. The building exterior shall be continually and properly maintained. q. The building elevations shall be revised for Board approval showing accurate elevations with accurate colors. The applicant shall attempt to add additional features to the building exterior using either the same materials or others. The intent is to break up the linearity of the west elevations and the second level. r. Signs shall be provided which designate the access drive to the loading dock for employees and deliveries only and also for one -way customer traffic around the building for use of the • parallel parking spaces. Community Design Review Board -6- Minutes 12 -12 -89 • s. The applicant shall provide a monetary guarantee, in a form acceptable to staff, in the amount of 150% of the estimated cost of any site improvements that are not completed by occupancy. The applicant shall also provide staff with proper documentation, to be approved by the City Attorney, which allows staff access onto the property to finish work that may not be completed. Boardmember Molin seconded Ayes - -all B. Plan Review - Burger King, Rice Street and Larpenteur Avenue Mike Nordstrom was present representing the applicant. Mr. Nordstrom said this proposal is to construct a 2,900- square -foot Burger King restaurant with a cream colored brick and T -1 -11 cedar siding exterior. The board members discussed with staff the circumstances under which sidewalks could be required. Staff said more information on when sidewalks could be required should be available when the comprehensive plan revision is completed. . Boardmember Molin moved approval of plans date stamped November 27, 1989, for Burger King at Rice Street and Larpenteur Avenue, subject to the following conditions: 1. Approval of plans by the Community Design Review Board does not constitute approval of a building permit. 2. All trash dumpsters shall be stored in screening enclosures with a 100% opaque wooden gate and shall be a color and material compatible with the building. Enclosures shall be protected by concrete - filled steel posts, or the equivalent, anchored in the ground at the front corners of the structure.

BACKGROUND On December 9, 1986, the Design Review Board approved the plans for the Salvation Army Church. On December 22, 1986, the City Council accepted the Board's motion and required that "landscaping and screening shall be required on the east and south sides of the parking lot to prevent headlight glare and to provide a buffer. Screening shall be done in accordance with City ordinance and will provide a buffer consisting of a berm on the east and south • property lines and as far as the berm, the CDRB will specify the actual height and screening plantings on the berm." The landscaping has been installed without the Review Board having first reviewing the plan. Staff is holding $5,000 in escrow to cover the additional screening that may be required. SCREENING REQUIREMENTS Section 36 -27 requires that a six - foot -tall, 80% opaque buffer be provided when the light from automobile headlights and other sources would be directed onto residential windows. Screening shall consist of evergreen plantings, berming, decorative fencing or a combination of these. DISCUSSION In general, the site is landscaped very nicely. The berm south of the parking lot provides an adequate screen; no additional plantings are needed there. The only area in need of additional screening materials is east of the parking lot adjacent to the Cottages of Maplewood, where the berm is low and headlight glare would be a nuisance. To meet the screening requirement, the landscape plan should be further developed by providing enough additional evergreens and possibly intermittent sections of decorative -wood fencing to meet code. • 4 • RECOMMENDATION Approval of the landscape plan date stamped December 26, 1989, for the Salvation Army Church, subject to the condition that the screening along the easterly lot line shall be increased with evergreens and decorative -wood fencing ( optional) to provide a buffer /screen that is six - feet -tall, 80% opaque upon installation. This revised plan shall be submitted for Board approval. TESALVARMY Attachments 1. Location Map 2. Property Line /Zoning Map 3. Site Plan 4.
