CC: Carol Cotter
As I'm sure you know, they have issues. This is what I saw:
• Not all curbing is installed.
• Landscaping is not completed.
• Need to seed /sod islands.
• Site not clear of construction debris.
• Development/construction /finance signs need to be removed.
• Adjacent lot needs to be cleaned.
• Awning supports non - existent.
• Awning tiling not complete.
• Old sign pole at the corner needs to be removed.
• Area for electric service was supposed to be improved.
• No dumpster screening.
• 8.5 -ft. sidewalks across front not that wide.
• No simulated windows on back as required by DRB.
• HVAC not placed according to site plan. DRB comment was to screen with masonry wall. They screened
old units but not the new.
le entry area was bricked, which was not according to DRB approved elevations.
• Doors not painted as shown to DRB.
• Window on side as shown to DRB not there.
• North elevation not painted( ?) as shown to DRB.
• There are two doors instead of one on the north elevation.
• I'm still checking on the signage.
I'm not comfortable with a conditional CO with so much not built according to what the DRB approved. I will
call Mr. Warren, but I think he's going to want to talk to someone "in charge ".

MEMORANDUM
TO: Design Review Board Members
FROM: Kim Foutz, Director of Economic Development -
DATE: November 12, 2003
RE: Cavender's Design Submittal
The Economic Development staff is writing this letter to urge the DRB to give special
consideration to the north and west facades of the Cavender's project. This development
is a gateway to the district and will set the tone for future development in the area.
As the DRB may be aware, the City's Strategic Plan includes promotion of the WPC
Entertainment District (see attached strategies). The Department of Economic
Development would like to make the DRB aware of current development activities
proposed in the District as a result of this plan. We believe these possible developments
and city established goals are relevant to the Cavender's submittal.
Staff has recently begun discussions with Paul Clarke, with Clarke & Wyndham to jointly
develop a commercial development along the southside of Holleman Drive adjacent to
the proposed Cavender's development. Under this proposal, the City would be
responsible for constructing a substantial water feature /venue(s) and Mr. Clarke and/or
his investors would be responsible for developing and orienting a retail commercial
development around the water feature. Also being discussed is a smaller water feature
along Highway 6 to visually attract people to the district.
The second project is an economic development prospect which plans to develop a
commercial recreational facility on the City -owned tract in WPC. This is a destination -
oriented development which should also attract people to the District.
These significant developments could represent the anchors needed to attract new, high
quality restaurant and entertainment development to the district. As such, the front tract
which is the entryway to the district is extremely important to accomplishing this goal. It
will set the tone for all further development.
With this in mind, please consider how the Cavender's project could be improved to
reflect the proposed character of the district and establish a gateway which will facilitate
future development.

Subject: Memorandum dated November 7, 2003
The following information is submitted by Item No. for staff review.
1. We plan to use the existing exterior lighting that is in place along
Holleman and the frontage road.
2. Yes, the future building will be next to our South wall, allowing for roof
drainage only.
3. Black and white elevation will be used. We decided that North and West
Elevations needed more POP, therefore, we have added stars and coping
at top. Northern color elevation is for colors only.
4. Please call me at 979 - 764 -1234, I'm not sure where the edging you refer
to is.
5. Attached signage will have red CAVENDER'S, black BOOT CITY; I
believe you have Mexican tile roof color sample; stars will be brown;
Austin stone is typically white. If the Austin stone does not have enough
tile color in it, we sometimes use Oklahoma sand stone; rough cedar
wood or steel painted to match; Dryvit wall sample color has been
submitted, Amarillo White; concrete block will be painted to match Dryvit
color, even though it will not show.
Please call should you have further questions. I can be reached by phone at
979 - 764 -1234 or email at oldawg(a�camalott.com.

I met with Lance and Tony M. today. 4 hour fire wall constitutes a separate bldg. so that each can have a
