While the architecture of the lodge beilJinq itself is internally consistent, a question is raised as to how a building of this style will appear in relation to the St. Clare's church structure. which was approved by your Shard recently. The architectural styles of the two structures are completely different. The lodge however, is quite similar to she Nets Life Fellowship Church building which was recently :onstructedl at the southwest corner of the intersection of Valley Trails Drive (South) and Hopyard Road. Since approval of these two dissimilar styles has already occurred in close proximity, construction of the lodge buildings will probably not be inharmonious. No environmental assessment accompanies this case Since a negative declaration was prepared for the Masonic lodge conditional use permit and the project has not changed in the Interim. Staff Recommendation: in the staff's o,inion, the Masonic lodge building, itself, will be attractive and its architectural style should be harmonious with that of its neighborhood. For these reasons, we recommend approval of Case t- 77172, subject to the following conditionss 1. That the development be substantially as shown on the site plan, elevations and landscape plan, Exhibit A, on file with the Planning Division, except that all non - planted areas around the lodge building be planted in grass and the proposed Chinese pistachio trees replaced with Platanus Acerifolia 40 ft. on center. 2. That approval of this case is subject to all applicable condi- tions of Planning Commission Resolution No. 1562, attached hereto and made a part of this case by reference. 3. That the structure meet all site requirements of the MR -2500 District. 4. That the Fire Division emergency number be provided adjacent to all telephones on the site. 5. That the street number of the building be posted so as to be easily seen from the street at all times, day and night. 4. That all ducts, meters, air conditioning equipment, and any other mechanical equipment, whether on the structure, on the ground, or elsewhere, be effectively screened from view with materials architecturally compatible with the main structure. 7: That all mechanical equipment be constructed in snch a manner that noise emanating from it will not be perceptible at or beyond the property plane of the subject property in a normal environ- ment for that zoning district. -2-
