Planning Commission Staff Report March 13, 2025 17.20.080, considering the parking needs of non -dwelling users and expected variations in usage periods. Architecture The existing split -face CMU material will be painted a muted color in accordance with CDDSG standards, while modification to the building facade will include architecturally enhanced pilasters on the south and east elevations, and a new, prominent entry feature and storefront system concurrent with the existing building entrance that provides contrast with the surrounding wall plane.
