/"- c. Actions of the Zoning Administrator No action was taken. 9. COMMUNICATIONS Commissioner Maas noted that the new date for the joint workshop with the City Council is July 30 at 8:30 p.m. 10. REFERRALS (continued) /- Mr. Iserson reported that staff has looked into the issue related to the Planning Commission's direction to explore the feasibility of replacing the spandrel windows on the second floor addition at 350 Main Street with trellises. He advised that staff spoke with Mr. Cannon and the property owner, Mr. McColm, regarding this matter and staff determined that the spandrel glass windows are probably the best solution. He noted that staff tries to discourage anything in the Downtown that is fake because everything is so highly visible, but they feel that because the options in this case are limited and because of the location of the windows and the proposed trim, it would not appear to the passerby that the windows are not real. He noted that there a couple of fake windows on the Gay 90's building and it is not apparent that they are not real. Mr.Iserson reported that Mr. McColm expressed a preference to install the trellises and was advised that this item would be presented this evening to the Planning Commission, but that Mr. McColm is not present this evening. Mr. Iserson also reported that Mr. Cannon does not like fake windows, but did agree that it would not be very visually apparent. The Planning Commission noted support for staff's decision. 11. MATTERS FOR COMMISSION'S INFORMATION There were none. 12. ADJOURNMENT Chairperson Maas adjourned the Planning Commission meeting at 9:00 p.m. Respectfully Submitted, JERRY ISERSON Secretary --- PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES May 22, 2002 Page 13
