Commissioner Allen: It's mainly the mixed use building, one foot on Bernal. You know, <br /> and Bernal homes have setbacks; even the business building does, and I believe also <br /> Augustine I think has a pretty narrow setback. All the other homes on Augustine are <br /> required to have 15 feet. The building next door is 16 feet and I think this is less than <br /> that. <br /> Beaudin: I'm not going to dispute the ground level setback, but on Sheet A-1, there is a <br /> one-foot setback and the first floor of the building is at that setback. The building <br /> changes angles on the second floor and actually does step back and the roof does <br /> come down at that corner and so where it does get taller there is the setback from the <br /> Augustine frontage. So I wanted to share that corner with you so it's clear that it's not <br /> 30 feet straight up. <br /> Commissioner Allen: I knew it wasn't straight up but I'm just still thinking it's still a big <br /> thing and it starts at one foot. <br /> Beaudin: And I think that was by design from staffs perspective to bring the building <br /> that's supposed to have more of an office flexible use character over time closer to the <br /> street so it does set itself apart from what might be more traditional residential <br /> character. <br /> Commissioner Allen: And I can see part of that, but we're in an Office district which says <br /> 20-foot setbacks, and you know, Mike and I had this discussion today—we have <br /> different points of view. But, we were talking about setbacks and it's like what will the <br /> library look like one day? And I don't know the answer because it's not done, but I <br /> would hope it's not a one foot setback to the sidewalk. I would hope there's some <br /> greenery, some kind of greenery and softening area. <br /> Commissioner Nagler: There's going to be greenery and parking between the street and <br /> the building. <br /> Commissioner Allen: Well, something. <br /> Commissioner Balch: No, there's going to be. <br /> Commissioner Allen: I mean that's great! I would hope there would be something that <br /> you can feel great about walking down that area and feeling like it's a community and to <br /> me right now, there's nothing that's right on the curb, or right on the sidewalk. <br /> Commissioner Balch: If I may though, downtown, when you walk down Main Street, <br /> what are the setbacks of any of those? <br /> Commissioner Allen: So in the guidelines, and that's right on, the guidelines say in <br /> downtown you can do that. I mean that's the objective. They're big buildings, big <br /> windows. This is not that. I mean, it's only 10% commercial and it's only 1,000 square <br /> feet. It's small and it's really a residence. I mean, it's kind of soft; it's a soft one or two <br /> person firm. It's not some big office building, but I mean, this says retail, Main Street <br /> and even Peters in some cases you can be right on, but it clearly says and has different <br /> rules when getting into these neighborhoods. <br /> EXCERPT: DRAFT PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, July 13, 2016 Page 14 of 21 <br />
