ITEM SUMMARY: The applicant is requesting to reduce the amount of the brick /stone
building material requirement on the façade facing University Drive. The required minimum
amount of fired brick, natural stone, marble, granite or any similar concrete product is 30% on
a façade facing a public right-of-way of a street classified as a minor arterial or greater on the
Thoroughfare Plan. The applicant has provided a letter from a licensed professional architect
verifying that a structural alteration would be required to meet the building material
requirement. The Non-Residential Architectural Standards allow an applicant to seek relief to

require structural alteration of the existing building.

facing University Drive East. The Non-Residential Architectural Standards require this façade to
have a minimum of 30% brick/stone building materials. The proposed renovations will utilize EFIS
