1 feet from grade to highest roof peak level, where 42 feet had previously <br />been approved and the Zoning Ordinance only allows 35 feet heights. <br />3 As recommended by the Planning Commission, the approval is subject to: <br />4 *platting the property as required by Ordinance; <br />5 *provision of 206 underground and 153 surface parking spaces on the <br />6 site; <br />7 *ponding for aesthetic and storm drainage purposes as indicated on <br />8 the Site Plan; <br />9 *brick exteriors with wood accents around the balconies or extended <br />10 living room areas proposed by the developer; <br />11 *a peak rather than flat roof design; <br />12 *no vehicular access from Lowry Avenue N.E.; <br />13 *landscaping, vegetation, and bermed screening as shown in the <br />14 Preliminary Landscaping Plan; <br />15 *provision of a walkway to the shopping center areas as well as <br />16 access to the site for emergency vehicles; and <br />17 *consideration given to security for the ponding areas as well as <br />18 consideration of a walking path for residents around the site <br />19 perimeters. <br />20 In approving these amendments the Council waives the required 2% bonding <br />21 and finds that neighbor concerns about the proposal appear to have been <br />22 satisfied because no one appeared to speak against the proposal during <br />23 the Council's consideration of Lang -Nelson's proposal. <br />Motion carried unanimously. <br />25 Variance Granted for New Signage on TA's Family Restaurant at 2905 <br />26 Kenzie Terrace <br />27 Councilmember Ranallo told Tom Rose, the restaurant owner's spokesman, <br />28 that he considered a 12 foot, variance to the City Sign Ordinance <br />29 requirements a good tradeoff to get rid of the "tall monstrosity" on the <br />30 roof now.
