The site is landmark designated and located within the Main Street Historic District. The applicant requests HPC approval to attach a seventeen (17) foot tall temporary barricade on the front facade of the building while the interior construction is completed. The barricade would include a sign with approximately 10" lettering that would say "Prada". Awrov €4 1965 -) APPLICANT: Arcades Associates LTD, owner. 6063'11\0~3_.-FAN/€12 LOCATION: 312 S.

The proposed development is compatible in general design, scale, site plan, massing and volume with designated historic structures located on the parcel and with development on adjacent parcels when the subject site is in an "H," Historic Overlay District, or is adjacent to an historic landmark. For historic landmarks where proposed development would extend into front yard, side yard and rear yard setbacks, extend into the minimum distance between buildings on the lot, exceed the allowed floor area by up to five hundred (500) square feet, or exceed the allowed site coverage by up to five (5) percent, the 1 Historic Preservation Commission may grant necessary variances after making a finding that such variation is more compatible in character with the historic landmark and the neighborhood than would be development in accord with dimensional requirements. In no event shall variations pursuant to this Section exceed those variations allowed under Section 26.520.040(B)(2),for detached accessory dwelling units. Response: The proposed changes would not affect the design, scale, and massing of the building. However, the temporary facade would hide the architectural characteristics of the front facade for three months. Staff feels that there are other option such as papering the windows from the interior. b. The proposed development reflects and is consistent with the character of the ! neighborhood of the parcel proposed for development. Response: Staff does not feel that proposed temporary changes are compatible with the character of the neighborhood in which all the storefronts contain visible windows. Staff is concerned that the barricade will become a bulletin board for fliers and graffiti. The barricade also gives the perception of a decrepit, boarded up store that might be found in a larger metropolitan area. c. The proposed development enhances or does not detract from the historic significance of designated historic structures located on the parcel proposed for development or adjacent pareels. Response: The proposal would not affect the permanent significance of the building because it is only a temporary facade, but staff is concerned that it would temporarily be an eyesore in the Historic District and may set a precedence for other interior remodels in the downtown area. Staff also has concerns about whether the Historic Preservation Officer and HPC Project Monitor's will be able to determine if anything is being changed on the exterior with the building. d. The proposed development enhances or does not diminish or detract from the architectural character and integrity of a designated historic structure or part thereo£ Response: Staff feels that the proposed barricade would detract from the architectural character of the historic structure while it is in place. Staff is also concerned with the fact that the applicant is proposing to attach the temporary facade to the face of the building with the possibility that the adhesive could damage the facade of the building. ALTERNATIVES: The HPC may consider any ofthe following alternatives: • Approve the application as submitted. 2 • Approve the application with conditions to be met prior to issuance of a building permit. • Table action to allow the applicant further time for restudy. (Specific recommendations should be offered.) • Deny approval finding that the application does not meet the Development Review Standards. RECOMMENDATION AND RECOMMENDED MOTION: Staff recommends that the HPC deny the request to construct and attach the temporary facade to the building as proposed. Exhibits: A. Resolution B.

The proposed temporary barricade is compatible in general design, scale, site plan, massing and volume with the historic Andre's Building and with the historic structures on adjacent parcels. The barricade is only temporary, will be in place for less than three months and will serve to protect the public from the visual and noise Impacts resulting from the approved remodel work, thereby enhancing the neighborhood. 2. The proposed temporary barricade is consistent with the character of tile neighborhood because construction barricades are an expected and natural element of building renovation. If an historic neighborhood wants to preserve its character then buildings have to be renovated occasionally, otherwise they will fall down. When you renovate a building the prudent owner will typically erect barricades to protect the public and limit unauthorized access. You see them h every city, historic structure or not. 3, The proposed temporary barricade enhances the historic significance and architectural character of the Andre's Building by screening from view what takes place during the renovation. When the queen mother is getting ready for the ball, she certainly doesn't want the public to see her foundation (or her plastic surgeon). Also, anything that hides a messy construction site should help enhance a neighborhood. 1 The proposed barricade is ver'y temporary and should be viewed as a positive thing, put in place to *:res*::*~~~104 peace and sanity of the community.
