The applicant is requesting to redesign the east façade facing Earl Rudder Freeway South and 10 percent of the north and south facades. The applicant is also request to add additional signage of 50 square feet. As the building is located in the Wolf Pen Creek zoning district, the Design Review Board is required to approve building elevations and signage.

In accordance with the UDO, the Design Review Board shall evaluate the building elevations and signage according to the following criteria: 1. Lighting: Building lighting will not project horizontally. The applicant proposes three different lighting types. Each pilaster will have a sconce as shown in detail 10. The walls will have sconces shown in detail 8. Each sign will have fixtures that direct light towards the sign. All fixtures are of neutral color. 2. Building design: The building is comprised of brick, EIFS, stone, and metal. Neutral colors are proposed for EIFS and existing brick will be cleaned and stained. Stone will be used as material for pilasters. The proposed canopy has a metal frame with vinyl canopy. In relation to the non-residential architectural standards, the building provides stone pilasters, a canopy, and wall plane projection with a four-foot in depth. 3. Signage: Total square footage of existing signage is 283 square feet. With 248 feet along the public entry façade, attached signage is limited to 500 square feet. The applicant is proposing an additional 50 square feet for a total of 333 square feet of attached signage. The additional “arcade” sign will match existing signage. SUPPORTING MATERIALS: 1. Applicable Review Criteria 2. Application 3. Proposed Building Elevations with Signage 4. Existing Elevations with Signage Page 1 Applicable Review Criteria This district is designed to promote development that is appropriate along Wolf Pen Creek, which, upon creation was a predominantly open and undeveloped area challenged by drainage, erosion, and flooding issues. Development proposals are designed to encourage the public and private use of Wolf Pen Creek and the development corridor as an active and passive recreational area while maintaining an appearance consistent with the Wolf Pen Creek Master Plan. The following supplemental standards apply to this project: 1. Lighting. a. Exterior lighting shall be part of the architectural concept. Fixtures, standards, and all exposed accessories shall be harmonious with building design. Light fixtures shall be compatible with fixtures used elsewhere in the district. 2. Building Design. a. Architectural style is not restricted. Evaluation of the appearance of a project shall be based on the quality of its design and relationship to surroundings. b. Buildings shall have good scale and be in harmonious conformance with permanent neighboring development. c. Materials shall be selected for harmony of the building with adjoining buildings. d. Materials shall be selected for suitability to the type of buildings and the design in which they are used. Buildings shall use the same materials, or those that are architecturally harmonious, for all building walls and other exterior building components wholly or partly visible from public ways. e. Materials shall be of durable quality. f. In any design in which the structural frame is exposed to view, the structural materials shall be compatible within themselves and harmonious with their surroundings. g. Building components, such as windows, doors, eaves, and parapets, shall have good proportions and relationships to one another. h. Colors shall be harmonious and shall use only compatible accents. i. Mechanical equipment or other utility hardware on roof, ground, or buildings shall be screened from public view with materials harmonious with the building, or they shall be so located as not to be visible from any public ways. j. Monotony of design in single or multiple building projects shall be avoided. Variation of detail, form, and siting shall be used to provide visual interest. In multiple building projects, variable siting or individual buildings may be used to prevent a monotonous appearance. 3. Signs. a. Sign Standards. i. Non-residential projects shall follow the requirements of allowed signage for the zoning district appropriate for the specific use in additional to meeting the standards listed below. b. Design Criteria. i. The Design Review Board shall evaluate all proposed signage according to the following criteria: 1) Every sign shall be designed as an integral architectural element of the building and site to which it principally relates. Page 2 2) Every sign shall have good scale and proportion in its design and in its visual relationship to buildings and surroundings. 3) The colors, materials, and lighting of every sign shall be restrained and harmonious with the building and site to which it principally relates. 4) The number of graphic elements on a sign shall be held to the minimum needed to convey the sign's major message and shall be composed in proportion to the area of the sign face. 5) Each sign shall be compatible with signs on adjoining premises and shall not compete for attention. 6) Identification signs of a prototype design and corporation logos shall conform to the criteria for all other signs.
