don't have to add extra space. I think that should be left alone too and we're working with the studios. We don't want to move them. We want to keep them 300 square feet and we think they're satisfied with one like the other properties would be allowed one. So that's it. Thank you guys. Tim Ward, Architect: A couple of things—and I kind of apologize that we made this vision of adding more space to the Residence 1, and I'm not sure if you have that aerial view of the revised residence? It was kind of a 3-D thing. Okay, and I think that's a great improvement. The two fit together really well, and so from that perspective I think it was really constructive that Natalie kind of bugged us about this and you mentioned it in your workshop and we appreciate that. In regards to the materials, I think the key thing that I was trying to do and I think is important is to get a variety of materials there so we don't get a monolithic sort of block. And whether its asphalt shingles or metal roof or different colored asphalt, it needs to be broken up, and likewise with the bays that we use some metal on. I think there are other materials that are optional that probably do fit into the guidelines so I don't think that's a real problem. We've always tried to keep this curb cut over here. I told Mike this, if I could go straight in here, I could get another space there, you know, a conventional—you come in and have parking on both sides. From the tree, it'd actually line up and the drive would come in here. And I think it would be very easy to then pick up that seventh space if that was what the Commission felt was necessary. Commissioner Nagler: I was thinking of something similar. If we were to allow that tree to be removed, what kind of tree is it? Ward: We wouldn't take it out. It's a big one and it really does some screening there that's really pretty sweet. The arborist said it is really about how we handle the pavement out in that area and that it's pervious and we don't excavate a lot to do it. It would be easy to add a space to the right and still get a generous area around that tree. Chair Ritter: Without removing the tree? Ward: Yes, without taking it out. And then as far as the setbacks, I mean, we started this with a PUD in mind where we could establish the setbacks. I know if we have to go to a 20-foot setback, we became sort of a block building with parking in front. That's kind of what started to happen in the first studies with Mike, and this corner is way too special for that. Commissioner Balch: So the metal is on two parts; the siding and the roof itself. Is there an alternative siding you would propose that could still cause it to be broken up as you were saying is needed? Ward: On the base we might go from the metal siding to some kind of a Craftsmen shingle, you know, where they do the wide and then the narrow. It's sort of a patterned shape. It's a little more precise than putting a bunch of shingles on it, but it has a nice look to it. I think that would fit well. I think we would still stain it so you go into the white mode so it's not quite so you know, I'm not trying to make it cartoonish....
