No. 2257.973.001 / S98 W12575 Loomis Court). This resolution was on the floor and deferred. Petitioner has made some changes based on recommendations from staff and Plan Commission. Overall, the newly submitted site plan meets most of the requested requirements. Discussion ensued regarding the proposed berm. Staff recommends that landscape berm should be expanded and heightened. The intent of the berm was to adequately screen the nine foot overhead doors. The City Forester has requested that the plantings on the berm must be the tree forms of arborvitaes and not the shrub form. Petitioner’s architect, Mark Freding, addressed the Commission agreeing that the berm could be expanded, however had a concern with the proposed height of the berm. Mr. Freding stated that the berm will be three feet above the base floor elevation of the building. Commissioner Hulbert would like to see a two year replacement guarantee especially with the trees on the berm. Additional discussion took place regarding the brick. Mr. Freding said that the material would be a full four inch brick. Consensus of the Commission requested that the brick be extended all the way to the soffit and above the doorways on the West elevation giving an illusion of brick columns. Alderman Buckmaster questioned why there are bathroom facilities in Unit 20. What is the use of this unit? Mr. Alex answered that Unit 20 would be used for storage and that the facilities were there if needed. Interim Plan Director Muenkel stated that an Amended Building Site and Operation Plan will be needed for more parking stalls if the use changes to be more intense. Mr. Alex said that there are no significant uses other than storage for this unit. A yearly annual review for the month of March has been incorporated into the resolution. This property is currently zoned B-4 which already allows for the use and operation that is being requested. Commissioner Hulbert made a motion to amend Resolution #P.C. 067-2004 on page 3 in the fourth BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED to read….. landscape berm should be expanded and will utilize more of the open space and be at least three feet above the building elevation.
