Ken Johnstone, Acting Planning Director, explained this is in the same business park as Lot 2, with this Lot being the one closer to Dillon Road. This proposal is generally consistent with the sight and conceptual plans previously presented to Council. Johnstone outlined the outstanding conditions and exceptions, and then continued his presentation (see attached Council Communication). Davidson called for the applicant's presentation. Greg Armstrong, TrammellCrow, explained the adjustments that have been made to the building to satisfy the Planning Commission's conditions. He then addressed the outstanding issues. He stated the Coal Creek Trail connection will be continued onto the easement versus stopping at the property line. The lighting decisions made to the signature building in Resolution No. 24 will also be applied to this building and the number of fixtures will be reduced from twenty-four to twenty. They will include some boulders and xeriscape principles in the buffer around the building. The wall signage decisions made to the signature building in Resolution No. 24 will also be applied to this building. He was then available to answer any questions. Davidson called for Council questions and comments. Davidson stated that he would not support changing the landscape setback. Mayer felt that continuing the Coal Creek Trail connection in exchange for four fewer trees is a reasonable trade off. Sisk asked the applicant if they had any objections to a requirement that they obtain permission from CDOT to increase their setback by landscaping an additional ten feet. Armstrong offered an alternative to shift the drive lane to the north and eliminate some onsite parking to accommodate the additional ten feet. Sisk and Davidson agreed that either alternative would be acceptable to them. Armstrong agreed to approach CDOT first and then pursue the second option. Sam Light, City Attorney, asked for clarification that the representation being made is that TrammellCrow, as the owner of Tract B, would agree to extend the Coal Creek Trail connection across Tract B. Armstrong replied yes, they would grant that easement. Howard moved that Council accept Resolution No. 25, Series 1998 - Final PUD Development Plan for an Office Building on Lot 2, Coal Creek Business Park, with the following amendments: 1. That a recordable, legal document be forwarded from TrammellCrow to the City Attorney agreeing to the extension to the Coal Creek Trail through their Tract B; 2. That wall-mounted exterior lighting be down lit only; 10
