ELEVATIONS:
1. On March 19, 2002 City Council adopted an ordinance which revised the
development standards for industrial Buildings, based on the C.I.V.I.C. report
recommendations. The provisions applicable to this project are as follows:
· Exterior wall surfaces should consist of no more than three earthen colors.
The base color may be utilized on up to 80 % of the surface area of any one
fagade of a building. An accent color may be used on up to 1% of the
surface area of any one fagade. For calculation purposes, wall surfaces
should include eaves, gables and parapets, but should exclude roofs,
awnings or signs.
· Where walls exceed 100 feet in length, additional architectural accents must be
included to break up the expanse of the wall. These may include items such as
reveals, windows, and wall articulations, among others.
Revise the elevations as necessary to comply with these provisions of this
ordinance.
2. Consider alternative for standing seam metal roof for office area which is more
compatible with rooflines and architectural features of buildings in this immediate
area.
