Option A echoed the materials and colors from the adjacent <br />neighborhood. Option B had a more traditional fire station design. <br />Kirk van Cleeve, project architect, RRN Design Group, Oakdale, discussed the redesign <br />process that had occurred since the last Planning Commission meeting. He noted that <br />approximately 12 residents attended the neighborhood meeting, and that they were shown <br />various design examples and elements. The residents wished to see a residential scale, but <br />did not want to hide the fact that it was a fire station_ They wanted a defined entry and <br />materials similar to the homes. He described the design features of the two options_ <br />Commissioner Roberts noted that the original designs had more pop-up glazing and glass <br />features to enhance the LEEDTM rating. <br />Mr. Van Cleeve noted that the apparatus bay doors would be mostly glass, and that 9t did <br />not have as many LEEDTM features as the original design. <br />A discussion of the roof and skylights ensued. <br />In response to an inquiry by Commissioner Roberts, Mr. Van Cleeve noted that the bolder <br />colors were chosen to blend with the nearby gas station, and to separate it from the <br />neighboring homes and highlight it as a fire station. <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES February 12, 2003 Page 6 <br />
