A. Prior to building permit submission, the applicant will provide staff with additional
options where the metal "parapet" wraps around the south west corner of the building.
Staff may approve a final design prior to building submission. The applicant will work on
additional materials and colors for the roof as an alternative as to what was proposed.
B. Prior to building permit submission, the applicant will provide a management plan for
the perimeter of the building to be approved by staff. Further study of what features can
be removed from the perimeter of the building, plans For permanent display of wares,
further protection for the pedestrian, and maintenance of fire access shall be addressed.
A better solution for bicycle parking will be considered which we recommend would
consist of moving the bike parking area to the east adjacent to the building and moving
the curb cut to the west along Cooper to improve pedestrian safety. The applicant will
study the placement of bollards, both style and type (such as removable), along the front
facade of the building to provide a pedestrian refuge and maintain fire access.

can display wares or artwork representative of the products available within the store and

vertical height of the windows on the front facade.

but not limited to, requirements for a construction management plan, stormwater
development fees, and encroachment licenses and right-of way permits. Specific to this
project, the abandoned grease trap in the alley will need to be removed and any unused
pedestals shall be removed. Additionally, with the reroofing of the building, the roof
drains will not be allowed to drain into the sanitary sewer line.
