• • • Main Street Village page 9 •Lot 2, Block 1, McDonald's: The proposed McDonald's building has face brick and EIFS. The brick colors are brownish grey with red brown brick setting off the drive- through window area. Modernized golden arch elements rest over west entrances and large windows and on the taller "tower" feature. The majority of the building is 18' 3" high. The "tower" element rises up to 21' 4" with an arch that rises another 2'. The restaurant building footprint is 4590 sf with the trash area and cold storage connected to the south end of the building. A drive through window is a permitted use in the GB zone. Plans show access to the door on the north end of the building is past an outdoor seating area. The drive -throe • h lane is immediately next to the door location and we will want to ensure there is an adequate barrier for safety reasons. The P & Z decided in December that in its view the City should not require Conditional Use Permits for the outdoor seating unless there is waiter /waitress service. •Lot 1, Block 2, Kwik Trip With Car Wash: The building has red brick walls with tan brick courses for visual variety. The metal peaks are green. The store is 21' high with 31' peaks. The store has base- middle -top features in varying degrees on different walls. Earlier submittals showed the car wash in a separate building, but the newest elevations have them joined into one building. A motor fuel station requires a CUP, which includes standards for the canopy. A car wash also requires a CUP. These are discussed below. *Lot 2, Block 2, Retail: The large retail building has 4" precolored block, rock face block in two colors, and EIFS of several colors. It includes the base - middle -top design elements. This building is 22' high with arched features several feet higher. There is a drive - through window on the north elevation intended for a coffee shop. A drive through window is a permitted use in a GB zone. A patio behind this building shown on a previous plan has been removed. Our understanding is that table seating for a coffee shop would be on the sidewalk on the east side. The P & Z decided in December that in its view the City should not require Conditional Use Permits for the outdoor seating for a coffee shop that does not include waiter /waitress service. Signage: The City's sign ordinance requires a comprehensive sign plan for multi-user buildings. We can require this for site plan reviews as well. We always require a comprehensive sign plan for a commercial PUD, which typically includes multi-user buildings as well as multiple buildings. Signage should be consistent and planned out in a shopping center. The comprehensive sign plan for the site includes signage specifications and sign drawings that have been submitted on several documents. A number of elements have been amended to eliminate inconsistencies with the City's sign ordinance There are only two outstanding issues. One: a slight modification of the tall pylon sign for the gas station will make it visually consistent with other ground signage —as called for in the project's signage specifications by removing the peak on the top of the sign. Two: the sign plan information
