MINUTES <br />PLANNING COMMISSION <br />NOVEMBER 12, 1998 <br />Huebscher explained that the wood exterior of the building will be <br />covered with a block facing or overblock. The block on the west side of <br />the building will be rough -face block. The block added on the east and <br />south elevation will have a brick appearance. Also a metal roof will be <br />installed on the addition which will wrap around to the front of the <br />building. The proposed construction will blend the original and addition <br />together. <br />Ray Thul and Rus Boogren of Cobblestone Village appeared before the <br />Commission to find out more about the proposal. <br />Huebscher explained the addition proposed, again noting that it will go out <br />on the west side of the building. <br />The City Planner asked about the building materials that will be used on <br />the front of the building. Huebscher replied that the front would remain <br />glass. All areas of the front which are not glass will be covered in the <br />overbrick material. Huebscher again indicated that the west side of the <br />building would have a concrete block appearance matching the back of the <br />building. The front and east sides will be covered in the overbrick. There <br />will be no wood on the exterior of the building. The metal roof will <br />extend around to the front of the building. <br />Huebscher submitted a memo dated November 10th from his architect that <br />addresses the concerns raised in the City Engineer's report. Huebscher <br />explained that the diagram submitted to the Commission does not depict <br />the entrance drive to the site in the correct location. The building itself <br />actually has two entrances. Customers use the side (east) entrance, and the <br />improvements proposed will make the front door less appealing to <br />customers. <br />The City Planner commented that the correction of the driveway location <br />addresses the Engineer's concerns. <br />Mr. Huebscher was asked to provide staff a drawing showing the correct <br />driveway location. He was also asked to bring samples of the brick <br />treatments that are proposed to be used to the City Council meeting for <br />their review. <br />Mr. Montour recommended approval of the amendment to the Conditional <br />Use Permit requested by St. Croix Screenprinting allowing the expansion <br />of their building subject to compliance with the recommendations of the <br />City Planner as outlined in his report dated November 9, 1998, subject to <br />compliance with the recommendations of the City Engineer as outlined in <br />Page 17 <br />
