<br />flexibility. <br /> <br />Kathy Sacco agrees with Mr. Lanternman in that there are some conflicts in the guidelines. Ms. Sacco <br />believes that if there is some type of ranking or prioritizing of the guidelines, it would be easier for the <br />Landscape Architects to follow. Ms. Sacco has noticed that these guidelines make it sound more like <br />an office zone instead of an industrial zone area. They have to make sure that trucks can make it in <br />and out of the area more easily. Ms. Sacco would like to see some flexibility in the line of street trees <br />for future aesthetics. Ms. Sacco would also suggest only using Buffalo grass where it can be <br />contained so it will not shoot off into other areas which would cause maintenance headaches. <br /> <br />Garth Braun agrees that by prioritizing the important standards, it would make it easier to make <br />decisions in the design process. He would like to see some type of checklist to make it easier for <br />applicants and for staff. Mr. Braun also pointed out that the users of the building are industrial users <br />and will have to have long straight walls most of the time for what they are using the buildings for in <br />an industrial park. <br /> <br />Commission Comments/Questions: <br /> <br />Commissioner Lipton explained to the PC the process that they went through to come up with these <br />guidelines. This is a document that a lot of people came to agreement on and hopes that the Planning <br />Commission will keep that in mind and not suggest a whole lot of changes. Mr. Lipton supports the <br />document presented at this time. <br /> <br />Chairman Boulet would like to see a couple of things “tightened up” a little bit. <br /> <br />Commissioner Solek would like to see some way of tracking the conflicts or changes that they see <br />needed as they apply these standards. <br /> <br />Commissioner McAvinew would like this to be looked at twice in the first year and then once a year <br />thereafter. <br /> <br />Mr. Kitzman went through his memorandum regarding suggested Industrial Drainage Design <br />Guidelines and discussed it with the Planning Commission. <br /> <br />The Commissioners went through comments regarding typographical errors, specific language and <br />modifications to the guidelines. <br /> <br />Motion and Vote: <br /> <br />Motion made by Bill Boulet to approve the Industrial Design Standards and Guidelines and <br />recommend that the City Council adopt them with the typographical changes as noted during Planning <br />Commission discussion and with the substantive changes on which the PC has reached consensus. <br />Seconded by Jeff Lipton. <br /> <br />Friendly amendment made by Jeff Lipton to approve Resolution No. 47, Series 1999 at the beginning <br /> <br /> 11 <br /> <br />
