<br />r <br /> <br />In response to Commissioner Arkin's question regarding the type of architecture and <br />materials to be used, Mr. Dominy replied that they were working on that item. He noted <br />that there would be a lot of transparent glass, stone, and steep roofs to connote <br />permanence, durability, openness, and welcoming to the community. He displayed an <br />example of the roof forms that they were considering that would define the heritage of <br />the Presbyterian Church. <br /> <br />Commissioner Arkin noted that he was not comfortable with the description of the <br />architecture, and noted that another nearby religious facility was recently approved. That <br />building was designed in the Craftsman style that he believed fit more into the housing <br />area, and added that it was very attractive. He was concerned whether the materials, <br />especially a lot of glass, would fit into the residential area. <br /> <br />Mr. Dominy noted that one of the Church's main goals was to fit into the community, and <br />added that they would pick up on some of the design themes in the community. <br /> <br />Commissioner Roberts noted that the designs would come through in the PUD. <br /> <br />In response to Commissioner Sullivan's question regarding the approval process for the <br />church. Mr. Iserson replied that they would come back with a conditional use permit and <br />a design review for the church. The PUD development plan process will establish the <br />land use. <br /> <br />r- <br /> <br />Commissioner Sullivan inquired whether the PUD would establish the square footage for <br />the different buildings. Mr. Iserson replied that it would focus on the site acreage, and <br />would outline some general parameters of the site. He added that there would leave a lot <br />open for further review for the applicants upon their return. <br /> <br />Pastor Barris advised that they were intent upon working with the whole neighborhood, <br />and would like to bring the residential areas, the senior residences, the church, and the <br />schools together as a community, not as separate elements of the City. <br /> <br />In response to Commissioner Sullivan's question regarding the number of enrolled <br />students, Pastor Barris noted that the current preschool had an enrollment of 125 students, <br />and they would like to accommodate a maximum of 200 students. Pastor Barris added <br />that they also conducted a summer sports camp, as well as a vacation Bible school. <br /> <br />Mike Goldsworthy, architect, Ponderosa Homes, noted that they held their first workshop <br />with the Housing Commission on May 16 to obtain the Commission's input on the <br />original plans. The first plans had 150 two-story units, higher parking ratios, and a <br />smaller community building. Based on the input from the workshop, they represented the <br />project on June 20, which included five buildings, with an additional 32 to 44 units per <br />building. The original two-story element was similar to the current project. They <br />determined that more affordability should be achieved. They added some three story <br />elements, which increased the number of units from 150 to 172. <br /> <br />,'-- <br /> <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES <br /> <br />June 26, 2002 <br /> <br />Page 6 <br />
