DESIGN REVIEWS
Case No. 2010-45 Design review of renovation of front facade and signage at 215 Main St. S.
(The Green Room) in the CBD, Central Business District. Christopher Durant, applicant.
The applicants were present, noting this is a work in progress, even the name, which may have
to be changed to just "Green Room." It was stated the basic look of the sign won't change much
and will be reduced in size to meet the ordinance requirements. It was noted that the storefront
is being designed to fit well with the businesses on either side, so the combination of colors is
being selected to be complimentary to the existing businesses. Mr. Johnson asked about plans
to move the door. The applicants stated they believe it necessary in this climate to have a
double door and said plans are to do that as un-invasively as possible; it was noted there is
nothing structural that will be changed in order to accomplish the double door. Mr. Johnson
asked if they plan to reuse the existing door; the applicants responded that the existing door will
probably be used on the inside, with a new door, replicating the appearance of the existing door,
on the outside. Mr. Johnson asked about the transoms; the applicants stated they would remain
glass. Regarding signage, Mr. Johnson noted that it is allowable to paint up to one-third of the
area of the glass on the inside. Mr. Johnson asked if there would be a projecting sign in the
back as well as the one on the front elevation; the applicants stated there are no plans for a
projecting sign on the rear elevation. The applicants described plans for changes to the interior
of the building. Mr. Zahren asked if there had been any talk of leveling off the sidewalk in the
back of the building; the applicants stated there had been no talk of that but said they would like
to do something with that in the future. Mr. Johnson asked about lighting; the applicants said
they weren't decided on those plans at this time. Regarding the projecting sign, Mr. Johnson
suggested the applicants consider a thin border to make it stand out a bit more; the applicants
stated the sign would be on a metal frame, which should help define the border.
Mr. Johnson moved to approve the projecting sign, limited to 6 square feet as required by the
ordinance; to approve plans for moving the entry 1'7" as requested, reusing the same door or a
door that has a wider frame and taller lower portion if the door is to be replaced; and that the
lighting be approved as it currently exists on the building; and with the condition that final color
chips and samples and final color rendering be presented to staff for approval. Mr. Lieberman
noted that if the applicants decide to change the lighting, those plans will need to be submitted
to the Heritage Preservation Commission for approval. Mr. Bracht seconded the motion. Mr.
Zahren asked about plans for Dumpsters; the applicant said they might cooperate with Brine's.
Mr. Pogge noted there are three businesses using the Dumpster in question, but said the
applicants should be able to utilize the container; Mr. Pogge suggested the applicants discuss
that situation with him. Mr. Johnson noted there is a condition of approval regarding trash
Dumpsters. Mr. Zahren asked Mr. Pogge about the ownership of the sidewalk; Mr. Pogge stated
that is partially located on City property and partially outside of the City property, noting that the
portion of the walk that is in really poor condition is not located on City property. Mr. Zahren
asked whether repair of the sidewalk could be made a condition of approval; Mr. Pogge noted
the sidewalk repair would have to be a coordinated project of the building owners to address
drainage and other issues. It was clarified that Mr. Johnson's motion includes the other
conditions recommended by staff. Motion passed unanimously.
Case No. 2010-46 Design review of signage at 2200 Frontage Road (Crossings Inn and Suites)
in the BP-C, Business Park Commercial District. Scenic Sign Corp., applicant.
The applicant was not present. Mr. Johnson noted that everything is in conformance with the
regulations/ordinance and moved to approve as submitted. Mr. Bracht seconded the motion,
clarifying it included the conditions seconded by staff; motion passed unanimously.
Case No. 2010-47 Design review of signage for Avante Salon at 222 Third St. S. in the CBD,
Central Business District. Theresa Dziuk, applicant.
Mr. Pogge stated the applicant could not be present due to a conflict. Mr. Lieberman noted this
is a grandfathered situation. Mr. Johnson asked whether in a grandfathered situation, the sign in
question can continue for perpetuity or if the grandfathering right expires after the original tenant
who obtained approval leaves the location. Mr. Pogge said if the sign was approved by the City,
has been in continuous use and no changes are made to the size, it is grandfathered; he said if
the business remains vacant and the sign not used for a period of one year, the grandfathering
right expires. Mr. Johnson suggested that this situation drives home the importance of not
making exceptions to the ordinance, as an exception can potentially be in existence forever,
even if granted specifically with one applicant in mind. Mr. Krakowski moved approval as
conditioned. Mr. Zahren seconded the motion; motion passed unanimously.
NEW BUSINESS
Discussion of solar panels — Mr. Pogge briefly reviewed the proposed guidelines, which would
apply specifically to the Neighborhood Conservation District (NCD). There was discussion as to
the guidelines impact on the effectiveness of the solar panels; it was noted that the impacts
could be dramatic, depending on the specifics of a property and orientation of structures on that
property. Mr. Lieberman asked about regulations of TV antenna dishes; Mr. Pogge said in
theory those would have to be painted as no advertising is allowed facing the street, but that
has not really been enforced. It was noted that technology has greatly reduced the size of the
dishes and FCC regulations would supersede any regulations the City passed. Mr. Bracht noted
there is solar technology now that basically makes shingles the energy collectors and asked
whether those would be allowed under this proposal. Mr. Pogge noted that is addressed in this
proposal and would be allowed unless it would require removal of a significant element of a
home, such as a time or slate roof. Regarding residential properties outside of the
Neighborhood Conservation District, Mr. Pogge said the proposal would require that solar
collectors be placed in a side or rear yard and not on a front elevation, with no other restrictions.
There was a question as to whether the proposal for the NCD would allow collectors in an
exterior side yard; Mr. Pogge stated the intent is not to allow that. Mr. Lieberman asked about
the requirement that solar panels be flush mounted on a roof "to the extent feasible;" Mr. Pogge
said any disagreement regarding the feasibility of flush mounting in the NCD would come before
the HPC. Mr. Tomten asked whether the proposal was an ordinance or guideline; Mr. Pogge
noted these are similar to the design guidelines for the downtown historic district and the
Neighborhood Conservation District. Mr. Tomten asked what would happen if someone can't
meet the guidelines, whether the property owner could appeal to the HPC and Council; Mr.
Pogge responded in the affirmative. Ms. Cook asked about a requirement to screen collectors
placed in a back yard; Mr. Pogge said there is a requirement to screen panels not attached to a
building with landscaping elements. Ms. Cook expressed concern about the visibility of systems
placed in a backyard, suggesting in some instances it might be preferable to have a collector
system installed on the primary structure; Mr. Lieberman suggested broader wording to state
that there be an attempt, wherever feasible, to install the panels in a way to be the least visible
from the street. Mr. Pogge noted that the concern, from a preservation standpoint, is that
whenever penetrations are made to a structure there is a potential for water damage, thus the
proposal to regulate against placing the systems on the primary structures or accessory
structures in the NCD. Mr. Lieberman spoke of the conflict of weighing energy efficiency against
historical preservation. Mr. Tomten spoke of the likelihood of technology changing so rapidly
that the regulations will have to be modified frequently. Mr. Bracht asked about plans for getting
public input. Mr. Pogge said the regular ordinance public hearing process would be followed,
with public hearings at the Planning Commission and City Council. Mr. Bracht said he thought it
was important for the City to have guidelines such as proposed so problems, such as the one
that prompted the Council to ask staff to look at regulating solar collectors, don't start showing
up in historic neighborhoods. Mr. Tomten said he would have less a problem with the proposal
for guidelines in the historic district, than creating an ordinance for regulating those outside of
the NCD. Mr. Pogge said staff's recommendation for outside of the NCD is not to regulate
collectors on the principal structure and require any freestanding units to meet required
setbacks and not be located in a front yard or street -facing side yard. Ms. Cook asked about
size restrictions; Mr. Pogge said there are no size restrictions other than the requirement that it
cannot be taller than what is allowed for an accessory structure in a particular zoning district.
Mr. Tomten noted that cities can no longer grant variances so it is important that what is
enacted as an ordinance won't have unforeseen consequences, such as banning solar
collectors in some circumstances. Ms. Cook said she support energy conservation, but
expressed concern about visual impacts; she agreed this is likely more important for the NCD.
Mr. Johnson moved to approve the proposal as it relates to the Neighborhood Conservation
District. Mr. Bracht seconded the motion. Mr. Tomten said he would support the motion, but still
would have some trepidation about moving outside of the NCD as an ordinance. Motion passed
unanimously.
Mr. Zahren asked for input regarding a graffiti art project. He said he had talked to people from
the Franconia Sculpture Garden about a graffiti art project being done there. He said one
possibility is to place 4x8 removable panels along the eastern side of his building, utilizing the
panels for 90 days as allowed for temporary signs; he said graffiti artists from Minneapolis would
put together a mural, utilizing historical content, but done in graffiti style. Mr. Zahren said graffiti
art is a culture that is becoming more popular for serious artists and becoming a legitimate art
form. He said the art department at the high school and the Perpich Center for the Arts High
School are very interested in the project. He noted that a similar project was done at Fargo and
folks in the community are supportive. He spoke of the importance of an educational component
to the project, letting kids know it is not OK to tag a building, but that graffiti is a legitimate art
form. Mr. Johnson said he thought it would work as an event in conjunction with the Art Festival,
but expressed concern about using the building in question as it is a prominent feature of the
viewshed and the panels will appear to be actually painted on the building, even though it is a
removable board; he also spoke of the possible negative view of the community in light of the
vandalism tagging that has been going on. Mr. Zahren spoke of being more creative and more
diverse and the opportunity to add the educational piece for students. Mr. Johnson again
suggested that, at least for the first year, have this an event in the park and see what the
response is before making it a semi -permanent project. Ms. Cook said she was open to new
ideas, but spoke of her frustration in dealing with the non -legal aspect of graffiti and said she
agreed with Mr. Johnson that it would make sense to do this as part of the Art Festival. Mr.
Lieberman said he would not be afraid to try this and said he thought it might be a way of
channeling young people's artistic talent. Mr. Lieberman invited several students in the audience
to take part in the discussion. One of the students said she liked the idea of providing a different
view of art and displaying that where everyone can see it. Another student stated he wouldn't
see anything wrong if an historical context is used in the project; another student said he
thought it would be interesting and said he would go to see what it was all about. Mr. Johnson
reiterated his position. Mr. Tomten said he thought the space might be conducive to a project,
emphasizing the educational aspect and promoting a moving art in -progress event. Mr.
Lieberman spoke in favor of taking art out of stuffy little rooms and opening it up to other
perspectives. Mr. Zahren said he wasn't looking to do something permanent on the building. He
said the artists would come and give a presentation, with a visual of what the project will look
like. Mr. Bracht also spoke of emphasizing the educational component of how damaging tagging
can be to the masonry of historic buildings. No action was taken.
Mr. Lieberman, seconded by Mr. Johnson, moved to adjourn at 8:35 p.m.

Heritage Preservation Commission
DATE: December 28, 2010
PROPERTY OWNER: Tim and Amy McKee
APPLICANT: Mark Balay
REQUEST: Demolition Permit for a residential duplex
LOCATION: 607 4th St S
HPC PUBLIC HEARING DATE: January 3, 2011
REVIEWED BY: Community Development Director
PREPARED BY: Michel Pogge, City Planned
CASE NO.: 11-04
BACKGROUND
Tim and Amy McKee, property
owners of 607 4th St S, are
requesting a demolition permit
for the existing residential
duplex on the property.
The property is in the
Neighborhood Conservation
Design District. In the future,
any new structure would require
a NCD design review permit.
The current structure was built in
1880 according to the
Washington County Assessor's
office. Currently the McKee's
own the home immediately north
of this site at 601 4th St S. The
intent of the property owner is to
use the property at 607 4th St S to
expand their current yard.
Subject
House
607 4th St S
Demolition Permit
Page 2
Additionally, city code does not permit an accessory structure on a lot without a
primary structure. The RB zoning district permits only one garage over 120 square feet
and one shed 120 square feet in size or smaller per property. Therefore the garage will
need to be demolished. The garage was built in 1982 and later expanded in 1986; thus the
garage is not subject to demolition review.
Long term, the applicant plans to complete some renovations to their home at 601 4th St S
and would like to use the garage as storage during the renovation. The City has permitted
property owners to keep noncompliant accessory structures for a limited amount of time in
cases like this as so long as they provide an escrow that will cover the structures
demolition. In this case, the applicant needs to provide an escrow of $1,500 to cover the
structure's demolition based on the quote from their demolition contractor.
SPECIFIC REQUEST
The applicant is requesting consideration of a demolition permit for the existing duplex on
the site.
EVALUATION
Chapter 34, Section 34-4 of the City Code states that "if buildings or structures are
determined by the community development director to be historic or potentially historic,
the application must be sent to the [heritage preservation] commission for review.
Buildings or structures determined nonhistoric must be referred to the building official for
issuance of a demolition permit."
A "nonhistoric structure or building" is defined by Chapter 34, Section 34-2 as a structure or
building less than 50 years old... This structure was built in 1880 according to the Washington
County Assessor's office making it more than 50 years old, which makes it potentially
historically significant and requires review by the Heritage Preservation Commission
before it can be demolished.
Section 34-5 of the City Code lists nine items that must be considered prior to approval of a
demolition permit by the Commission.
(1) A map showing the location of the building or structure to be demolished on its
property and with reference to neighborhood properties;
This information is included in the attached application.
(2) A legal description of property and owner of record;
This information is included and is attached at Exhibit "A".
(3) Photographs of all building elevations;
This information is included in the attached application.
607 4th St S
Demolition Permit
Page 3
(4) A description of the building or structure or portion of building or structure to be
demolished;
The entire structure is proposed to be demolished.
(5) The reason for the proposed demolition and data supporting the reason, including,
where applicable, data sufficient to establish any economic justification for demolition;
The applicant included a bid from Mark Wendt Construction to renovate the structure. The
scope of work in the quote lists a number of items to be addressed including gutting the entire
home, installing a new foundation, addition new appliances and new fixtures. The total cost
to complete the renovation is estimated to be $237,000. The home at 607 4th St S is 2,032
square feet of living space according to the Washington County Assessor's office.
It is difficult to evaluate the economic justification criteria for any demolition. In most cases,
a historic renovation will cost more than a demolition and new construction. Additionally it
is impossible to set the value a demolished structure has on the fabric of a neighborhood once
it is lost.
With that said, a similar sized home (2,109 square feet) that was rebuilt at 702 Churchill St
W was sold on December 3, 2010 for $330,000. The property at 607 4th St S was purchased
for $82,000 by the McKee's on December 14, 2010. With repairs estimated to be $237,000
the total investment in the property would be $319,000. There would appear to be a market
for the home with that value therefore the data supplied by the McKee's may not support the
economic justification criteria for a demolition at this time.
(6) Proposed plans and schedule for reuse of the property on which the building or
structure to be demolished is located;
The applicant stated in their application that they plan to incorporate the vacant lot as green
space as part of their home at 601 4th St S.
(7) Relation of demolition and future site use to the comprehensive plan and zoning
requirements;
The current comprehensive plan land use designation for the property is Low/Medium
Density Residential and is zoned RB, two-family residential. Using the site as green space
the site would have 2.7 units per acre and thus would not met the density requirements of 4.4
to 9.7 units per acre outlines in the City's comprehensive plan for area designated as LMDR.
Using the site as green space the site would met the requirements of the RB zoning district.
This site is in the Neighborhood Conservation Design District. Any new structure in the
future would be subject to the infill design criteria.
(8) A description of alternatives to the demolition;
The applicant includes a number of alternatives to demolition; however, they generally note
that none of the alternatives are feasible.
607 4th St S
Demolition Permit
Page 4
(9) Evidence that the building or structure has been advertised for sale for restoration or
reuse and that sale for restoration or reuse is not economically feasible.
The structure was listed for sale on Craig's List, Ebay and Stillwater Gazette. Copies of these
ads are included in the packet.
The applicant has included a report from Mr. Mark Balay. A copy has been included in the
packet. Mr. Balay noted that the building would not be eligible for the National Register of
Historic Places nor the City's Landmark Homes Program. Staff is agreement with these
findings. Mr. Balay also noted that he could not find any cultural significance for the
structure.
Staff does believe that the home could be eligible for listing on the City's Heirloom Home
program which follows a lower standard than the National register of Historic Places and
the Landmark Homes program.
ALTERNATIVES
The HPC has several alternatives related to this request:
A. Approve. If the proposed demolition request is found acceptable to the HPC,
they should be approved. Staff would recommend the following minimum
condition for approval.
1. Prior to demolition of the principal structure, the applicant shall establish an
escrow in the amount of $1,500 to cover the demolition of the existing garage.
The garage shall be demolished within two years of the demolition of the
primary structure.
B. Approve in part.
C. Deny. If the HPC finds that the proposal is not consistent with the demolition
rules then the Commission could deny the request. With a denial, the basis of
the action is required to be given.
D. Table. If the HPC needs additional information to make a decision, the requests
could be tabled until your February 7, 2011 meeting so that additional
information could be submitted. The 60 day decision deadline for the request is
February 14, 2011.

City of Stillwater
Attn: Michel Pogge
216 N. Fourth St.
Stillwater, MN 55082
Dear Mr. Pogge and Heritage Preservation Commission Members:
Attached are your requested application materials for demolition of the residence at 607
Fourth St. South, which was constructed , according to the tax assessors records, in 1880.
We intend to remove only the house structure from the property. The garage and
driveway will remain.
The house at 607 Fourth St. South has been rental property for all of the 14 years we have
owned our home next door. We were able to purchase the property after the completion
of the foreclosure process earlier this year. Well before, and during, the foreclosure
process the condition of the house deteriorated, because it was unoccupied and
vandalized. Our house, at its closest point, is separated by only 4 feet from this structure.
While we were concerned about the deterioration, we were without a means to control
the ongoing actions of others on this adjacent property.
We are somewhat disappointed that our efforts to find a reuse for the existing house on
another property met with failure, but the existing condition of the house, potential cost
of renovation, and moving costs have not been desirable enough, in this current economy,
to attract a buyer.
We have complied fully with the requirements to obtain a demolition permit per section
34-5.1 from the City of Stillwater Building Demolition Section of the City Code as
follows:
1) please see attached maps labeled 'A'
2) see attached Legal description labeled `B'
3) see photos attached
4) The entire house and foundation will be removed
5) It is not economically feasible to relocate or renovate the structure from its
existing deteriorated condition. Please see the attached renovation cost estimate
from Mark Wendt Construction (labeled `C") which greatly exceeds the potential
market value of a 2,000 square foot home, be it on this property or any other.
page 2
6) The re -use plan is to utilize the separate property as additional landscape, yard
and service space for our current home next door. As you know, we successfully
renovated the historic carriage house with your assistance and guidance, avoiding
demolition of that historic accessory structure. We plan to remove the house
before spring and fully redevelop the yard next summer.
7) Our neighborhood block is entirely residential and shall remain so with this
project. This fully supports the current comprehensive plan and zoning
requirements.
8) We examined the possibilities of re -locating this house further south on the lot to
provide more yard to our house. We also looked for any individual willing to
remove the house from our property to another lot for $150.00. Based upon
current economic conditions neither turned out to be desirable.
9) The property has been advertised on Craig's List , local Ebay, and in the
Stillwater Gazette for removal.
In addition, as your application packet suggests, we have had our architect examine and
research all historical aspects for the house to determine any architectural significance in
regards to architectural style, occupancy, or occurrence and have found very little. A
report of his research efforts are attached for your review.
We request that you review these materials, and issue our permit. Please do not hesitate
contacting us prior to your meeting if you have any questions, You are welcome to come
and observe the existing conditions of both our properties at 601 and 607 Fourth St.
South.
Sincerely,
Amy and im McKee

Research and Report on the Cultural and
Architectuctural Significance of
607 S. Fourth St., Stillwater
Sources 1/ Stillwater Library St. Croix Collection materials and files
2/ Historical Sanborn Insurance Maps
3) Stillwater City Directories
4) various biographical references
Architectural Significance Analysis
This house is balloon framed in circular saw cut wood, with square nails and
a local limestone foundation( in need of repair). This supports the
approximate 1880 date from the tax record for the date of construction. The
historical Sanborn insurance maps in the St. Croix collection provided
snapshots of the property during its entire life span. We have attached a
partial copy of the 1898 map for your reference. While neighboring houses,
porches, and accessory structures have changed periodically the main body
of the house has remained the same since it was constructed. The general
three dimensional shape of the house indicates it was conservative in quality
for the time it was built. There is very little historical fabric of
ornamentation and detail remaining in and outside the house, to further a
design style description. Most of the detail has been either removed leaving
some indication of where it was, or replaced with simpler functional
materials in the life of the house. The National Register requires that a
property be a distinct and stand out existing example of a historical
architectural style to be considered under this category. Unfortunately, the
surviving architectural signature of this house will not even be of interest for
the recently established, local designation of "Landmark Home"
page 2
Cultural Significance Analysis
There are three main ways to look for the cultural significance of this home
based upon occurrence or occupant, deed records, city directories, and
historical archives. We have examined two of the three. In the context period
of Stillwater History we were able to attach the surnames of Lohmer,
Kuhlman and Whalen to the house. In referring to historical archives we
found this houses image in one picture involving a courthouse function, but
nothing close enough to give us a confirmation of a significant resident or
occurrence , or add to our knowledge of the original architectrual detail of
this housel. This house will not qualify for the national register based upon
these contexts.
The loss of any part of the "whole", being the entire 19th and early 20th
century housing stock in Stillwater, is a point that needs to be looked at
carefully in a town like Stillwater, where it is important to maintain that
critical mass of historic housing that makes Stillwater an important
remaining icon of the 19th century in Minnesota.
In historical appraisal of this house, I can see very little to justify the
historical preservation value that would be necessary to offset the extreme
costs of an overall historical renovation of this house. There is also very
little to base restorative practices on because of little detailed historic fabric
remains of what was there.

Atlas Pet Store
LOCATION: 1798 Market Drive

ZONING: C - Commercial
HPC DATE: January 3, 2011
REVIEWED BY: Community Dev. Director
PREPARED BY: Michel Pogge, City Planner MY
DISCUSSION
Building Signage
The applicant is requesting design review and approval for a new wall sign for Atlas
Pet at 1979 Market Drive. Building signage is proposed to be on both the Market Drive
and Curve Crest Drive sides of the building. On Curve Crest Drive, the sign will
comprise of red "Atlas Pet" channel letters that are proposed to be internally lit. This
sign will be 5 feet tall by 10.88 feet wide for a total of 54.4 square feet in size. Adjacent
to it will be red non -internally lit channel letters that read "Food Supplies Pets" This set
of lettering is proposed to be a total of 1 foot tall by 19.4 feet wide total area of 19.4
square feet. The total signage along curve crest is 73.8 square feet and Atlas Pets
occupies a total of 77 feet facing Curve Crest Drive.
Along Market Drive, they are proposing red non -internally lit channel letters that read
"Atlas Pets Wild Bird Self Pet Wash Fish Pets Food Supplies". These signs will be a
total of 1.25 foot tall by 62.33 feet wide total area of 77.9 feet of signage. Atlas Pets
occupies 78 feet facing Market Drive.
1798 Market Drive
Page 2
For retail wall signage the West Business Park design standards provide that the
signage shall be consistent with the Sign Ordinance. The zoning ordinance states that
for a wall sign, 'the gross surface area of a wall sign may not exceed one square foot for
each foot of building, parallel to the front lot line' The proposed signage meeting this
requirement.
s�
Overhead Joor
During a review of the signage, staff noticed an overhead door that was recently
installed on the building facing Market Drive without design review approval. Staff
contacted the building owner who explained that they plan to paint overhead door and
block to match the adjacent building color. It would have been appropriate to have
reused the old block to fill in around the door; however, it has already been disposed of.
At this point painting the brick and door to match is the best alternative available.
RECOMMENDATION
Approval as conditioned.
CONDITIONS FOR APPROVAL
1. All revisions to the approved plan shall be reviewed and approved by the Heritage
Preservation Commission.
2. No additional signage without HPC approval.
3. The brick and overhead door shall be painted to match the adjacent building colors.
4. All future exterior building changes requires HPC approval prior to any work being
completed.
FINDINGS
The proposed signs and overhead door as conditioned meet the requirements of the
zoning ordinance and meet the intent of the West Business Park Design Manual.

APPLICANT: Kurt Klitzke, Airmed Biologics, Inc
REQUEST: Design Review of proposed signage for Airmed Biologics, Inc
LOCATION: 1815 Greeley St S
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DISTRICT: I - Industrial
ZONING: BP -I Business Park Industrial
HPC DATE: January 3, 2011
REVIEWED BY: Community Dev. Director
PREPARED BY: Michel Pogge, City Planner 14
DISCUSSION
The applicant is requesting design review and approval for two new wall signs for
Airmed Biologics, Inc at 1815 Greeley St S. The signs are proposed to be located above
the main entrance and above their delivery area. The signs are proposed to be a flat
wall sign made of aluminum with vinyl coating and lettering. The sign will contain the
words "Airmed" in blue, "Biologics, Inc." in red on a white background with a black
boarder. Each sign is 6 feet wide by 2 feet tall for a total of 12 square feet. The sign is
not proposed to be lit.
For wall signage the West Business Park design standards provide that signage shall be
consistent with the Sign Ordinance. The zoning ordinance states that for a wall sign,
'the gross surface area of a wall sign may not exceed one square foot for each foot of
building, parallel to the front lot line'. The applicant has 78 feet facing Greeley St S,
which allows a 78 square foot wall sign on the front of the building facing Greeley St S.
The two signs are below this threshold. Generally properties are limited to one wall
sign; however, in planning case 1999-46, a variance was granted to permit two signs for
this space.

DISCUSSION
The applicant is requesting design review and approval for a sign at 450 Main St N for
Uncommon Age. The sign is proposed to contain the words "Uncommon Age Neural
Training Studio" in white letters on a black background. The "U" logo is white on a
light blue background. The sign will have a light blue border. The sign is 8 feet wide
by 2.5 feet tall for a total of 20 square feet in area. The sign will be non -illuminated.
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

for each foot of building face...'. The applicant's retail space is 70 feet long facing Main
St N. The total sign area of the proposed sign is 20 square feet, which is smaller than
allowed under the zoning ordinance.

Just a quick note asking if Trinity Lutheran Church could come and visit with the
HPC at its next meeting, January 3.
Trinity is working with Hammel, Green and Abrahamson in the preliminary stages
of designing an expansion of Trinity's current facility. It is a significant project
for Trinity, and will take place on the site of the current USPS facility. It will have
a great impact on Stillwater as well.
Because of the importance of this project, we would like to visit with the HPC
early in the design process — we are currently done with needs analysis,
programming and block planning, but have stopped short of massing and
exterior design.
This expansion will be of significant size, possibly up to 15,000 square feet, and
will put a new public face on Trinity, a new major entrance, learning spaces,
gathering spaces and a new "black box" type venue that will be open for
community theatre and other fine arts purposes. We think that Trinity will
continue to be a major host of the arts in Stillwater (over 30 community
performances in 2010) as we add this state of the art performance venue.
Trinity's greatest need is to express the nature and mission of the church in a
way that is transparent, open, welcoming and engaging to the community at
large. Trinity, as a faith community, is open and engaging — we will be striving to
find design options that express that nature.
That is why we would truly appreciate an early and open conversation with the
HPC to see what counsel might be provided by the HPC to pursue design
approaches that are not predictable extensions of the existing church
architecture, but would instead better reflect Trinity's openness, welcome, and
relevance.
• I look forward to visiting with you and having a great conversation. I had coffee
with Roger Tomten recently, and he suggested this way of moving forward
together. I am grateful for this possibility.
Peace,
Pastor Dan Poffenberger

Re: Demolition ordinance review
Message:
As planned at the HPC's retreats this summer, staff is beginning a review of the City's
demolition ordinance over the winter months as requested by the Commission. Staff is
working with volunteer and law student James Hanneman on compiling information
on various demolition codes that are seen throughout the state as part of this
discussion.
To get the work underway, Staff would like the HPC to form a small working
committee that would review the material developed by Mr. Hanneman & City Staff
and ultimately formulate a set of proposed changes, if any, the committee would
recommend to the full HPC and City Council.
Staff Recommendation
Appoint up to three members to serve on a committee charged with reviewing the
City's demolition ordinance.
