Mr. Lieberman stated after reviewing the application, it appears the applicant met all nine steps required for the issuance of a demolition permit and moved to approve the permit. Mr. Zahren seconded the motion; motion passed unanimously. DESIGN REVIEWS Case No. DR/08-10 Design review of a paint sign band area for Enterprise Rent-a-Car at 14454 N. 60th St. in the BP-C, Business Park Commercial District. Ben Bonde, applicant. Mr. Lieberman reviewed the request and staff findings. Mr. Lieberman moved approval as conditioned. Mr. Eastwood seconded the motion; motion passed unanimously. Case No. DR/08-11 Design review for Oh-Sus-anna at 402 N. Main St. in the CBD, Central Business District. Ann Tschida, applicant. Mr. Lieberman reviewed the request and staff findings. It was noted that according to ordinance, based on the size of the applicant's retail space, the requested sign is 5.5 square feet larger than permitted. Mr. Johnson asked a representative of the applicant, if there would be a problem reducing the size of the sign to meet the ordinance requirements; the representative said they would not be opposed to doing that. Mr. Johnson moved to approve the requested sign as submitted and as conditioned, with the additional condition that there is no lighting. Mr. Zahren seconded the motion; motion passed unanimously. City of Stillwater Heritage Preservation Commission April 7, 2008 Case No. DR/08-14 Design review of exterior renovation and signage for 201 S. Main St. in the CBD, Central Business District. Joe Heinen, applicant. The applicant was present. Mr. Pogge noted the current signs would be removed and replaced with the new signage; he pointed out the sign on the Chestnut Street elevation will be smaller than the existing sign. Mr. Pogge stated at this time, the building houses just one tenant. As the new owners get into their planned renovations to house additional tenants, a sign plan will have to be developed and approved. Mr. Johnson suggested adding a condition regarding submission of a sign plan; Mr. pogge agreed that would be good to add. Mr. Johnson suggested language that this approval becomes null and void if an additional tenant comes in and requests signage, at which time a sign plan must be submitted. Mr. Lieberman moved to approve Case No. DR/04- 14 as submitted and conditioned, with the additional conditions that the signage not be lighted and if at any point in the future, one or more additional tenants lease a portion or all of this building a complete new sign package must be submitted to the Commission, which may necessitate the removal of one or more of these approved signs to accommodate the new sign package. Mr. Eastwood seconded the motion; motion passed unanimously. Case No. DR/08-1S Design review of new construction in the Neighborhood Conservation District at 1905 Second St. N. in the RA, Single Family Residential District. Boyd Knudsen, applicant. Mr. Knudsen was present. Mr. Tomten questioned the proportion of the transom/windows, saying it seemed a bit out of character with the simplicity of the original house. Mr. Knudsen noted there are higher ceilings in the new structure. Mr. Johnson asked if the applicant would be carrying some of the characteristics, such as the five-sided windows, of the original structure to the gables of the addition, to which Mr. Knudsen responded in the affirmative. Mr. Knudsen said he would be using 4" lap siding for the exterior; he also reviewed plans for the corner boards and trim details. Mr. Eastwood moved to approve as conditioned; Mr. Zahren seconded the motion. Motion passed unanimously. Case No. DR/08-16 Design review of sign age for 223 Chestnut St. in the CBD, Central Business District. Cecilia Loome, applicant. Mr. Lieberman reviewed the request and staff recommendations. Mr. Tomten asked if there was an existing bracket that would be utilized; Mr. Pogge said he did not believe so. Mr. Lieberman moved approval as conditioned with the additional condition that the sign not be lit. Mr. Tomten asked that there be an additional condition that if a new 2 . City of Stillwater Heritage Preservation Commission April 7, 2008 bracket is installed an attempt be made to utilize the existing bracket holes. Mr. Johnson suggested that the sign background be an off-white, with a paint chip submitted to staff for approval. Mr. Lieberman agreed to incorporate both Mr. Tomten's and Mr. Johnson's suggested conditions in his motion for approval. Mr. Zahren seconded the motion; motion passed unanimously. Case No. DR/08-17 Design review of four-level parking structure at 200 N. Second St. in the CBD, Central Business District. City of Stillwater, applicant. Community Development Director Turnblad reviewed the project. He noted the plans include, or will include, the seven conditions the HPC stipulated when it granted concept approval of the plans in February. He reviewed how the seven conditions have been or will be incorporated. Mr. Turnblad reviewed comments from the Council pertaining to the southern tower/elevator tower and to the industrial-look of the fa<;;ade. He also reviewed comments from Rivertown Commons primarily pertaining to the park area. He concluded by saying staff believes the design team has created a facility in keeping with the bulk of the downtown design guidelines and is sensitive to a lot of the public discourse that has been received. He said approval is recommended with 13 conditions. There was brief discussion of lighting and storm water runoff/treatment. There was discussion about keeping the park open to the public, with Mr. Johnson noting that, according to the City Charter, there is a process that must be followed should the Council decide not to keep the park open to public use. Mr. Tomten pointed out that the park is shown as a pedestrian link and pedestrian amenity in the downtown and Comprehensive plans and is one of the things that make Stillwater unique. Mr. Johnson spoke of the historical significance of the site and suggested, from the HPC's perspective, it would be preferable to at least preserve the site and provide some interpretive information on the site. Mr. Eastwood asked if there is any way to make the north tower look unique. A representative of the LSA design team replied that would be possible, making it look similar to the south tower but with a little more differentiation, and he suggested possible treatments, saying these are levels of detail that will be looked at in final design. Mr. Johnson and Mr. Tomten also suggested possible treatment details. Mr. Johnson pointed out that in plans approved earlier by the HPC, the north tower was a very different shaped building than the south end, with a different color parapet and other differences. On a question by Mr. Lieberman, the design team reviewed the treatments on the Third Street, and north and south elevations. Mr. Eastwood asked about sign age. Mr. ') .) City of Stillwater Heritage Preservation Commission April 7, 2008 Turnblad noted they would come back later with a sign package. Mr. Eastwood asked whether a proposed banquet room at the Lowell Inn would require significant changes to what is being approved; the LSA spokesperson responded some changes will be required, but they are not significant changes. Mr. Turnblad briefly reviewed two options for the expansion, noting a separate design review will be required for any expansion plans. Mr. Johnson moved approval with the 13 conditions recommended by staff and the additional conditions that the north tower be very different and with no characteristics of the south tower, and that there be every effort made to preserve the park and an interpretive element denoting its significance to the City's lumbering era be included and that the park not be used for water retention. Mr. Eastwood seconded the motion; motion passed unanimously. OTHER BUSINESS Request for one-year extension of design review permit for Cub Fuel Center - Mr. Johnson, seconded by Mr. Lieberman, moved approval of the requested one-year extension. Motion passed unanimously. Request for extension of demolition permit DEM/06-04, Maple Island - Mr. Johnson, seconded by Mr. Eastwood, moved approval of the requested extension. Motion passed unanimously. Annual preservation awards - Mr. Johnson spoke of recognizing residential renovation efforts in view of the City's Heirloom and Landmark homes program. Mr. pogge noted this is the state's sesquicentennial year and he suggested giving an award recognizing the ongoing preservation efforts at the Historic Courthouse in keeping with the sesquicentennial observation. Several members spoke in favor of recognizing the mural at Pulp Fashion. Mr. Johnson moved to recognize the residential renovation efforts to the homes at 502 W. Churchill Street, 411 S. Sixth Street, and 907 Willard St., Pulp Fashion for signage, and an award recognizing the ongoing restoration efforts at the Historic Courthouse in honor of the sesquicentennial. Mr. Lieberman said he would like the three residential awards presented separately to emphasize the efforts the homeowners have put forth to meet the spirit of what is trying to be accomplished with design guidelines. Other Items: Mr. Pogge reported that 20 applications have been received for the Heirloom Homes program. He said postcards and letters have been sent out to solicit more interest in participating. 4 City of Stillwater Heritage Preservation Commission April 7, 2008 Mr. Pogge referred to a sign brochure in the agenda packet and stated staff has been directed to look at signage issues in the downtown area. He spoke briefly about sandwich boards and said any program would be intended to reduce clutter, promote pedestrian circulation and safety. He asked for Commission feedback. Mr. Johnson suggested perhaps the Chamber should develop proposed guidelines. There was discussion of the issue of enforcement of a Chamber-developed program and the need for such signage. Mr. Lieberman suggested that clutter isnt all bad and sometimes promotes a feeling of vitality in a city. Mr. Lieberman said he thought this was an issue that should be revisited and suggested a possible workshop with the Chamber. Mr. Johnson questioned how much of a stance the HPC should take on this matter. Mr. pogge noted that Mr. Johnson had suggested that the City utilize more historically correct curbing type in street projects that occur in the historic sections of the City. He said Public Works has agreed to a 12" gutter, with 6" square curb style, as opposed to a standard 45 degree curb, in the historic section included in this year's street project area. Mr. Johnson spoke of the possibility of using different color street signs to further denote the historic districts. The meeting was adjourned at 9:45 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Sharon Baker Recording Secretary 5 "1.-' , (StilJwater_, ".".. ~, : if t B I R ] !! P l 1.1. C~, a f hI: N ~i I ~. {) , I\.

Fourth St. Stillwater, MN 55082 Dear Mr. Pogge: Attached are all submittal materials requested to apply for the Design Review of fac;ade treatments at 132 S. Main St. The owner is proceeding with the renovations ofthe retail commercial spaces after the roof collapse. As you know, this property is a previous spatial conglomeration of three original buildings facing Main St. and two buildings facing Union Alley. We request your review and approve of the following alterations: 1) Phased Re- opening of all existing second floor window openings in their existing dimensions with double hung windows and transoms where applicable. This involves 12 openings on both streets and will be done as phases of the buildings are completed. You can observe, from the photographs attached, all openings are currently bricked up and only the rough perimeter frame boards of the original windows remain inside. This however facilitates the use of custom built replacement windows in similar manner to the old Simonet furniture store, now antique mall, on south Main Street. The Planning staff will have the opportunity to review the final configuration of the windows as the building permits are applied for. 2) Replacement of the existing storefront system on Main S1. Three separate lease spaces are now planned for the main street fac;ade as illustrated: A) The height of the storefront will not be altered any further than it already has been in previous modern renovations. Structural installations from that period, unfortunately make it infeasible to increase the height of the glass. B) The individual appearance of the three separate building facades involved shall be further redefined with the storefront alterations we propose as illustrated. This is in compliance with the downtown guidelines. . ' 132 S. Main St. page 2 C) The space under the windows is currently brick veneer in front of block. This brick shall be removed and replaced with wood spandrel panels to match the character of the existing wood on the building as shown. The north and south lease space doorways shall be recessed to allow outward door swings and appear more traditional in appearance. Storefront glass in at the entry doors and side lights shall be full ht. glass with transoms above. D) The storefront glass and door systems shall be similar to those recently approved by the HPC for Whitey's Bar on South Main St. The mullion configuration is illustrated in elevation and plan attached. The glazing shall be clear and the metal shall be dark bronze anodized. Signage shall be applied for by individual tenants, with the city and HPC by future submittal We look forward to meeting with you at your May 5th meeting. Please do not hesitate calling if you require additional information or have questions. -Mark S. Balay Mark S.

Director Michel Pogge, City Planner tM if PREPARED BY: DISCUSSION The applicant is requesting design review and approval for new signage and exterior building fa<;ade changes. Building sign The building wall sign is proposed to be located on the south wall and replaces the BT Doyle's Rib Joint sign. The sign will contain the business name Smalley's Caribbean Barbeque. The coloring for the signs lettering will be orange for Smalley's, brown for Caribbean, and faded red for Barbeque. The proposed sign is 8 feet wide and 3 feet tall for a total area of 24 square feet. A sign is technically not permitted on this side of the building under the current sign code. Since there has been a sign in this location historically prior to the current code the site is' grand-fathered' thus this sign is permitted. For retail storefront signs the Commercial Historic District Design Manual provides the size of signs shall be consistent with the Sign Ordinance. The zoning ordinance states building signs in the CBD '.. .may have an aggregate area not exceeding one square foot for each foot of building face...'. The applicant's retail space facing Main Street is 40 423 Main St S Page 2 feet long. The total sign area of the proposed sign is 24 square feet, which is smaller than the square footage allowed by the ordinance. Projection signage A new projection sign is proposed to replace the previous B.T. Doyle's projection sign along Main Street. The proposed sign is 44-inches by 26-inches for a total of 7.94 square feet. The sign is proposed to contain the business name "Smalley's Caribbean Barbeque". The color of the letter will be the same as the building sign. The background will be tan. For retail storefront signs the Commercial Historic District Design Manual provides the size of signs shall be consistent with the Sign Ordinance. The zoning ordinance allows projecting signs of up to six square feet in size. The total sign of 7.94 square feet is larger than what permit by the zoning ordinance. The previous B.T. Doyles sign was approved 2' x 3'. The proposed sign should be reduced in size in order to meet the requirements of the zoning ordinance. New exterior French doors The applicant is also seeking approval to install new French doors that exit from the banquet area to the back patio. The doors will replace the windows that currently overlook the patio area. This area is on the east elevation of the building and is not viable from Main Street. Air handling Finally, the applicant is requests approval to install an additional air handling unit related to improvements being made to the kitchen. They propose to install the vent adjacent (south) of existing roof-top vents on the east side of the building. This vent will be similar to existing vents on the building and will be visible from Main Street. ALTERNATIVES The Heritage Preservation Commission has the following options: 1. Approve the requests in whole or in part. 2. Deny the requests. 3. Continue the request for more information. The 60 day decision deadline for the request is June 17, 2008 and the next Heritage Preservation Commission meeting is scheduled for June 2, 2008. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Approval as conditioned. 423 Main St S Page 3 CONDITIONS FOR APPROVAL 1. The projection sign be reduced to be no more than six square feet or secure a variance from the Planning Commission to allow the sign area to exceed the allowable square footage. If the sign is reduced in size the new sign design shall be reviewed by City Staff before installation. 2. All revisions to the approved plan shall be reviewed and approved by the Heritage Preservation Commission. 3.

The metal letters will be affixed to the wood using 3" pegs that would set the letter out slightly from the sign. A gooseneck fixture, as similar to the existing fixtures as we can find, will illuminate the sign. The accompanying rendering shows several sign placement options. The image in the lower right-hand comer shows the proposed sign in the space that B.T. Doyles sign was formerly located. The image in the lower left-hand comer shows the proposed sign that would be located on the Main St. side of the building. The lower center image shows the proposed temporary sign. This would be in place for the first 30 days of business. The south facing sign will be affixed to the building using masonry anchors. We would install as few anchors as possible. The south facing sign will be hung at the same elevation as the former B.T. Doyle's sign, which is approximately 18' from ground. The Main Street sign would be constructed out of painted wood, with the logo painted in aged lettering in warm orange and faded red. The dimensions of the sign will be approximately 44"x 26" (these were the dimensions if the B.T. Doyle's sign that would be replaced), This sign will attached to the existing metal brackets on the building. The temporary sign will constructed of painted canvas or vinyl and would have the same placement as the permanent signage. Patio Doors Smalley's Caribbean Barbeque would like to add in two sets of new french doors into the exterior fayade of the back patio space. The historical nature will be maintained by bringing in the same design elements that are used on the surrounding exterior and interior finishes of the 423 Main St. South building. The typical mullion style that is featured on the existing windows will be incorporated onto these doors. The doors will recreate the same shape of square glass that is formed by these mullions. The mullions, doors, and door frames will match the existing wood finish that is used throughout the interior of the building. The design that will be used for the doors will be modeled after the original garage-type doors that were originally used on the Main Street side of the building. The size of the doors will fit into the existing opening size of the windows so the existing CMU block of the exterior fayade will not be altered. Ventilation The additional ventilation fan would be placed on the roof along with the existing ventilation. It should not be any more distracting, aesthetically, than the existing mechanicals. , ~LP..~ ..,r.r--:-t~-~.'a'::';"-.,.-~.."<:..~ o'~i,t'l' p~.-~.. ~. _~:.~~.._r~!&..._~, ~...~"~~~ ~ ,e.:", .~Ih ..;ji,.....Go- "t':,";~ ~... ~ ..' ,."

Director PREPARED BY: Michel Pogge, City Planner rvt1P DISCUSSION The applicant is requesting design review and approval to paint a portion of the brick exterior wall, a new building wall sign, a new awning along Main Street, and to add additional column features and paint both the new and existing columns in order for them to ma tch. Building signage The sign is proposed to contain the business name "Savories bistro". The Savories lettering is proposed to be a copper orange color with a white outline on a black background. Bistro is proposed to be white lettering on a copper orange background. Under the Savories letter is proposed to be a sculpted fork. The proposed sign is 4'1- 1/4" tall by 9'9" wide for a total area of 40 square feet. For retail storefront signs the Commercial Historic District Design Manual provides the size of signs shall be consistent with the Sign Ordinance. The zoning ordinance states building signs in the CBD '.. .may have an aggregate area not exceeding one square foot for each foot of building face...'. The applicant's retail space is 46 feet long facing Main St. The total sign area of the proposed sign is 40 square feet, which is smaller than the square footage allowed by the ordinance. f 108/102 Main Street N Page 2 Brick Painting The applicant is also seeking approval to paint the brick of the infill building at 108 Main St N black. The infill building at 108 Main St N is a modern infill building that was built in within the last 50 years. The building is located in the core Stillwater Commercial Historic District as listed on the National Registry of Historic Districts. The building itself is a non-contributing building to the Historic District. The Downtown Design Manual Guidelines provide that the painting of buildings and specifically masonry is prohibited. This requirement is in place for two fold. First the long term durability of masonry is far superior to paint. The second reason is once brick is painted, brick itself becomes susceptible to moisture damage through spalling. Brick spall occurs when the brick absorbs and retains water which then can freeze and expand breaking away the brick surface. When painted moisture will became trapped winthin the brick and over the long term damage will occur. An example of this is the building which Whitey's is located in. For these reasons staff would recommend denying the request to paint the building. Awning The applicant is also proposing to add awnings on the front fa<;ade that also ties together to space they lease in the former bank building and the infill building at 108 Main St N. The proposed awning is similar in style to those recently added to the building by Pulp Fashion. The colors are proposed to be terracotta and beige. The applicant's representative has indicated to staff that the proposed valance will continue the terracotta and beige strip as the main awning contains. The applicant has not indicated the type of material that will be used. The guidelines recommend that water- repellent or vinyl-coated canvas be used in order to keep with the awning of the time. Staff would also recommend that the awning be the same shape and have the same projection as the existing Pulp Fashion in order for the new awning to aesthetically tie into the existing awnings on the building. Columns The final proposed change is to repaint the existing column features and to add others to the front of the building. The aim of this by the applicant is to tie together the space in the two different buildings. The proposed colors are copper orange and terracotta. The building as 102 Main St N has lost much of its historic character with the addition of the limestone fa<;ade and the loss of the third floor the building. However, the proposed columns caused the lower right corner of the building to become disconnected from the remaining portions of the building. Staff believes this would make a bad situation worse. A better alternative would be to pull elements from the 102 Main St N building and incorporate them into the 108 Main St N building, Staff believes that the proposed columns should be denied. 108/102 Main Street N Page 3 ALTERNATIVES The Heritage Preservation Commission has the following options: 1. Approve the requests in whole or in part. 2. Deny the requests. 3. Continue the request for more information. The 60 day decision deadline for the request is June 17, 2008 and the next Heritage Preservation Commission meeting is scheduled for June 2, 2008. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Approve the requested building signs and awning as conditioned. Deny the requested brick painting and column changes. CONDITIONS FOR APPROVAL 1. All revisions to the approved plan shall be reviewed and approved by the Heritage Preservation Commission. 2. The awnings shall use a water-repellent or vinyl-coated canvas. The awnings shall also be similar shape, height and projection as the existing Pulp Fashion awnings. The awnings shall not have a valance. 3. No additional signage. FINDINGS The proposed building signs and awnings meet the intent of the Downtown Design Guidelines and the zoning ordinance, as conditioned. The proposed building painting and would impact the integrity of the overall historic district and is inappropriate. attachments: Applicant's Form Applicant's Sign Package , Case No: ~ Date Filed: Receipt No.: Fee: $25.00 DESIGN REVIEW APPLICATION FORM COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT CITY OF STILLWATER 216 NORTH FOURTH STREET STILLWATER, MN 55082 The applicant is responsible for the completeness and accuracy of all forms and supporting material submitted in connection with any application.
