Those members present were Bob Marsh, Terry End, Lary Groen, and Norm Burns. Chairman Groen called the meeting to order and opened the Public Hearing on the Pre-application review of the Floradora. Pre-application Review Floradora Mr. Pielstick made the presentation to the members and went over the changes that have been made. The front wall has been moved back and the top two stories are now on brackets so that they overhang in the rear. Fifty square feet are lost in this new design, but Pielstick stated that it averages out because they have gained a few feet on the second floor. John Stanford of the Planning Office stated that it is definitely an improvement. He does recommend heavy land- scaping around the area in front of the connection between the original building and the addition. It was the general feeling of the Planning Office and the committee members that this design is more what they have been striving for in that it creates more of an open space impression, and pulls the addition back further. The rear of the building has been greatly improved. Stanford did state that Mr. Pielstick should contact the Planning Office so that a conditional use hearing can be scheduled on Tuesday. Groen asked for Public comment, and there were none. Groen closed the Public Hearing. Burns moved to approve the project as presented with the following conditions, that the commission see the final working drawings for final approval before final review to make sure that what they are seeing ends up on the final working drawings, and that this be a final approval of the plans. If there should have to be a substantial change it would have to be presented to this committee again. Marsh seconded, all in favor, motion carried. As general comments, the members felt that by pulling the addition back that additional feet, it brings the original Floradora in to a more dominant space. Marsh moved to adjourn. Ms. End seconded. The meeting adjourned at 1:15. Ellen L. Atkins, Deputy City Clerk
