(4) Appeal. An appeal shall only be applicable to an administrative permit, order, <br />requirement or interpretation of intent of provisions of this ordinance. Opinions and <br />evaluations as they pertain to the impact or result of a request are not subject to the <br />appeal procedure. <br /> <br />General Building and Use Provisions <br /> <br />The existing building is tan CMU block with red band accents. The applicant is proposing to use <br />pre-engineered Kingspan Granitstone Insulated Metal Panels (IMP’s) for the building addition. A <br />rock face CMU base is also proposed. See attached for the Applicant’s Narrative, Product <br />Details, Other Building examples, and Architectural Plan Set. <br /> <br />City Code Section 1007.043(2)(d) details building type and construction standards for <br />commercial, industrial, and institutional buildings. See attached for complete zoning code <br />language. <br /> <br />The following are code sections, intent, and staff’s interpretation. <br /> <br />• City Code Section 1007.043(2)(d)1. Definitions. <br /> <br />Architectural metal cladding. Refers to decorative, metal cladding systems such as copper, <br />zinc, titanium, stainless steel and painted steel components fixed to the outside of the primary <br />wall system. <br /> <br />Intent: The intent is to allow for decorative, metal cladding systems of high quality materials <br />and aesthetics. The architectural metal cladding could be an accent or is allowed as Class II <br />material up to 75%. The key words architectural and decorative emphasis the intent. For <br />example, the copper metal panels on the SMW Credit Union building (700 Apollo Drive) are an <br />example of architectural metal cladding. The vertical painted, corrugated metal sheets seen on <br />the applicant’s Kokoro Volleyball building example do not meet the intent of architectural <br />metal cladding. <br /> <br />At the June 22, 2022 and August 10, 2022 Planning & Zoning Board Meetings during the 2022 <br />zoning ordinance update, examples of architectural metal cladding were provided which <br />support intent. See attached. <br /> <br />Staff’s Interpretation: The proposed Insulated Metal Panels (IMP’s) are not architectural metal <br />cladding. <br /> <br />• City Code Section 1007.043(2)(d)2: All sides of the principal and accessory structures are to <br />have essentially the same or a coordinated harmonious finish treatment. <br /> <br />Intent: The intent is that an existing principal building and any proposed addition would have <br />the same or a coordinated harmonious finish treatment. <br />4
