The only portion of the new design guidelines that are not being completely met is the following requirement: <br />• <br />Buildings shall have a well- defined base, middle and top. The base should appear visually <br />distinct from the middle and top part (cornice) of the building through the use of a change in <br />building materials, color, window shape or size, an intermediate cornice line, sign band, an <br />awning, or similar techniques. <br />The project lacks a significant top, staff is including a condition of approval that would require the inclusion of <br />a cornice element sufficient in size and constructed of durable materials. <br />Building Height <br />According to the Zoning Ordinance, no building within the LI (Light Industrial) zoning district may exceed 45 <br />feet in height. At approximately 22 feet in height, the proposed facility complies with the ordinance. <br />Landscaping <br />The landscaping plan is generally compliant with city requirements with the exception of some material <br />changes, boulevard trees, and the required buffer. <br />The LI (Light Industrial) district requires side and rear lot lines adjacent to residential or commercial districts, <br />public right -of -way, a landscape buffer area not less than 40 feet in depth containing an effective mix of <br />screening including landscaping, planting, berming, or fencing. <br />The submitted plans indicate a berm along the southern half of the west property line that along with the <br />proposed landscaping should provide a substantial screen to the west, but the northern half of the west property <br />line and the north property line appear to be lacking in appropriate screening. <br />Staff notes that this berm was part of the mass grading plan that was approved for this entire industrial <br />development by Conditional Use Permit. Each individual property within the project has been reviewed based <br />on that grading plan as they have developed, so not all of those improvements have been completed until such <br />time that development occurs. In this case there is not berm on the western property line at this time and it <br />would need to be completed as part of this project not only for the purposes of grading and drainage, but also <br />for the screening it will provide. <br />An inspection of the existing site by staff proved that there are a number of existing trees that might provide <br />some screening of the building, but their location must be verified. If they are located on the property and not <br />within the roadway easement, staff can consider them as part of the buffer. The applicant will need to submit a <br />revised landscape plan (and if necessary a grading plan) that addresses the need for a 40 foot wide screening <br />buffer. This will need to be submitted prior to the item being heard by the City Council. <br />• <br />This application has drawn the attention of neighboring property owners and has brought to light issues with the <br />screening of the Summit Fire building to the south. Staff is working towards addressing that issue at this time. <br />As always, all sodded and landscaped areas shall require irrigation. The environmental board has specifically <br />requested that all berms be irrigated as well to ensure survival of planting materials. <br />
