Zoning District: NG-1, Historic Northgate
Location: 409 University Dr. #A
Applicant: Grant Barnby
Item Summary: The applicant is requesting approval of the signage and of the
screening of the mechanical equipment on the roof.
Item Background: This item first came before the Board in September of this year
requesting approval of the changes to the building exterior, including new doorways and
additional equipment on the roof, as well as, approval of the proposed signage.
Meeting minutes are attached.
After the meeting the developer proceeded with project development. As site
inspections occurred staff became aware that the signage on the front of the building
had blue cans (the sides or edges of the letters) with the letters being red. Staff
understood from the previous meeting that the intent of the motion was that all surfaces
of the lettering Dominoes should be either red or maroon. Also, as discussed at the
previous meeting, since the mechanical equipment extends more than a foot above the
existing parapet wall, additional screening is required. The applicants proposal for
screening does not appear to be opaque enough to satisfy the intent of a screening
requirement.
Staff has issued a temporary certificate of occupancy, conditional upon the outcome of
this meeting. The applicant will be given a reasonable amount of time to comply with
any requirements.
Issues/Items for Review:
