Commissioner Pearce stated that she is fine too and will not mess with the corporate logo <br />or the branding. She indicated that the heights are great, super, considering what the <br />Commission just saw. <br />C. Are the proposed architecture, architectural detail, and landscaping screening <br />for the service building acceptable? <br />Chair Olson stated that he is fine. <br />Commissioner Allen emphasized the point in the staff report about the landscaping and <br />trees and finding ways to soften the appearance of the service building. She indicated that <br />it is pretty stark. <br />Commissioner Pearce stated that she is happy with the architecture. She indicated that <br />she understands the operational concerns but would like to soften it with landscaping. She <br />added that she appreciates the visuals but would like to understand what the building is <br />going to look like with additional landscaping. <br />Commissioner O'Connor stated that he would also like to see additional landscaping <br />wherever possible. He noted that it is such an expansive open area. <br />Commissioner Ritter agrees. He stated that he thinks there is some wind that blows <br />through there, so it might be a comfort to the customers to have some landscaping to block <br />that. <br />Commissioner Posson stated that there are some visual renderings looking from the <br />freeway and looking from Stoneridge Drive, but none from the west and from the current <br />residential areas looking east. He indicated that he would like to see some renderings of <br />those. <br />Commissioner Pearce agreed. <br />Commissioner O'Connor added that it would be important to make sure the visuals take <br />into account any walls that are going to be in place, just like the parking lots and the light <br />standards. <br />Mr. Dolan stated that what the Commission is mostly going to see is the proposed storage <br />building, which may have some light standards above it, because that will pretty much be <br />right along the property line and on the CLC property. He noted that there will not be too <br />many; if it is taken from the ground, the top of the service building may be visible, but <br />knowing how much of it is visible might be useful to the Commission. He added that if the <br />Commissioners really wants to see what the whole site looks like looking down, they could <br />go to the top of the apartment buildings and look down. <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, February 12, 2014 Page 33 of 38 <br />
