Honorable Chairman & Members of the Redevelopment Agency
Community Development Department
Design Review, Building Elevation Modification
Applicant: Lewis Properties, Inc.
Location: 14772 Plaza Drive
Background & atscussion
Variance 83-9 authorizing the development of an office project at 14772 Plaza
Drive was approved by the Planning Commission on November 28, 1983.
Subsequently the Redevelopment Agency approved the design of the proposed
building on December 19, 1983. Action by the Redevelopment Agency is required
· on all projects withih the area boundaries.
After receiving all' ne6essary approvals, construction documents were submitted
to the Community Development Department for structural plan check. A review of
the drawings indicated that the elevations submitted were slightly different
from those viewed and approved by the Planning Commission and Redevelopment
Agency. The proposed modifications were reviewed by the Planning Commission and
approved on January 23, 1984. Final approval must be granted by the
Redevelopment Agency prior to commencement of construction.
Analysis
The original elevations incorporated a pitched, dark gray wood shingle roof with
a lighter gray stucco building. The top of the building would have been 29'6'
high. The roof would have acted as a screen to obscure roof top mechanical
equipment, and no additional screening devices would have been necessary.
As submitted, the revised elevations call for a flat roof above the second
floor, with a sloping metal roof from the second story down. The overall height
of'.the building has been reduced to 28'10". A metal equipment screen will be
utilized on top of the building to block the roof top equipment from view. The
building materials to be used will still be a light gray stucco, and the metal
roof will be a "Bristol Blue" with a matte finish. The applicant's architect
will have a color board at the meeting for Agency review.
The new design of the building departs from the residential characteristic of
the original plan; however, even with the proposed alternative materials, the
structure will still be a positive addition to the area and retain the general
theme of the original design concept.
