Motion seconded by Pechmann. Motion carried 5 — 0. Carl Johnson, Drywall Supply, appeared before the Commission requesting approval of an Amendment to PUD Permit allowing for the expansion of an existing metal building using similar materials to provide for new office and restrooms as well as increase warehouse space at 3225 Country Drive. Johnson reported that he presently has office space in the front building along Country Drive. That building has been sold to Midwest Gymnastics, and he has to relocate his offices within the next few months. Johnson noted the there are two buildings behind the front one, and the improvements he is proposing are for the furthest building to the back. That building currently has no office or restroom facilities. Johnson reported that his plan is to renovate the building adding the office and restroom space right away. The two additions of the warehouse space will occur later. Duray asked about the materials that would be used on the building, noting the City Planner's comments that the lap siding proposed is more residential or business in character. The Planner recommended masonry and EIFS /stucco as being more typical of an industrial installation. Johnson reviewed the materials proposed for the front of the building that will be the office area. Johnson indicated that the lower band is a hardy - board lap siding, however, that could be replaced with a brick veneer. The second and third band of siding is a vertical hardy -board siding, and the gable area is shakes. Barraclough asked about the hardy board siding. The Planner indicated that it was a durable material, but indicated that the lap siding has a residential or commercial look. The Planner felt that vertical panels of this same material would have a more industrial look. The Planner stated that he did not have a problem with the material, just the look of the lap siding. - 3 -
