AGENDA ITEM NO.3: Discussion, consideration and possible action on a site
plan for Cavendar's Boot City located at 2300 Earl Rudder Freeway South.
(02-264).
The applicant is planning to redevelop the old Wolfe Nursery site, expanding the existing
building and eventually adding on to create multiple lease spaces. The property is also in
the process of being replatted into two lots, which will be viewed as a building plot. The
proposed Cavendar'ssite plan on lot 2-R block 1 of the Sutton Place Subdivision may be
approved separately from future building additions on lot l-R, which will have to return
to the DRB for consideration when they are ready for development.
Ms. Hitchcock went over the proposed site plan.
Mr. Shafer expressed his concern is the lack of interesting features on some facades that
would be very visible to motorist or trail users as the area develops in the future. There
will be more of a visual connection needed to what we now think of as the rear of this
building.
Mr. Trainor made the motion approve the site plan with the following
recommendations:
- Clean up the reserve area at the corner of Holleman and the Feeder Road.
- Place masonry walls around the rear AlC units and on three sides of the
dumpster area. Gates should also be installed on the dumpster enclosure and
painted to match the building
- Extend wainscoting around to include back of the building.
- Add more polestars to the back of the building to duplicate thefrontfacade.
- Add overhead awning to rear door similar to the front door awning.
- Add simulated windows along the back of building.
Mr. King seconded the motion. As part of the approval the Board asked that city staff
review the. res ubmitted site plan with the D RB recommendations. If the res ubmittal is
not what the DRB proposed, it would then come back before the Board at a future
meeting. The Board voted (5-0).
AGENDA ITEM NO; 4: Discussion, consideration and possible action on a
concept plan for Castlegate Section 5 located north of Green's Prairie, west of
proposed State Highway 40.
The Developer wishes to continue the development as it was originally envisioned and
implemented in the previous Section 1-4 of the Castlegate Subdivision. The Planned
Development District is the only available district that provides for the meritorious
modifications of the regulations.
Mr. King made the motion to approve the site plan as submitted. Mr. Trainor seconded
the motion, which passed (4-0-1). Mr. McLean abstainingfrom voting.
