Commission April 3 2006 Present Howard Lieberman chairman Phil Eastwood Jeff Johnson Larry Nelson Brent Peterson Roger Tomten Scott Zahren and Council Representative Ken Harycki Others Community Development Director Bill Turnblad Mr Lieberman called the meeting to order at 6 58 p m and welcomed new Community Development Director Bill Turnblad Approval of minutes Mr Johnson asked about his wntten comments regarding Case No DR/06-13 While not read into the record, Mr Lieberman said the points raised by Mr Johnson were covered in the discussion The minutes of March 6 2006 were approved as submitted Design Review Case No DR/06-15 Design review of signage change at 106 E Chestnut St in the CBD Central Business District Patricia Page applicant Present was Darrell Rhodes owner of the building Mr Rhodes said the spelling of the building name will be corrected The lettering will be burgundy with gold trim The sign background will be white Mr Rhodes also requested that he be allowed to continue the use of a backlit sign saying he bought the building with the sign the way it is — backlighted Mr Lieberman said he would strongly request that the applicant use lighting other than backlighting and also suggested that the use of backlighting is not a grandfathered use since the building ownership has changed Mr Rhodes asked about other backlit signs in the downtown area Mr Johnson agreed that with the change in building ownership the use of backlighting is not a gramdfathered use Mr Johnson also suggested that the use of the building — professional office space — does not provide the rational for allowing backlighted signage Mr Rhodes argued that the residential appearance of the building makes it difficult to determine the use of the building the sign contractor also pointed out that it will be costly to change the signage Mr Johnson moved to approve the layout of the proposed sign as submitted with the condition that the signage not be internally lighted and that if the applicant wishes to have the sign externally lighted a lighting plan be submitted to the HPC for approval Mr Zahren seconded the motion Mr Tomten pointed out that backlighting is not conducive to the Victorian theme of the building and surface lighting is a better approach Mr Lieberman also noted the downtown design guidelines were in place when Mr Rhodes assumed ownership of the building and also pointed out that the HPC cannot grant variances Mr Johnson's motion passed unanimously Case No DR/06-12 Continued Infill Design Review in the Neighborhood Conservation District (RB Two Family Residential District) at 1208 N William St Tom Mulcahy applicant The applicant was not present Mr Johnson reiterated his written comments submitted for the March meeting the belt line for the single unit is higher than normal and is most apparent from the side elevation more vertical elements such as more height to the first floor windows should be added to the twin home and the proposed coach lights on the front of the units should be replaced with shielded or downlit fixtures Mr Johnson also pointed out that the window shown in the plans for the duplex unit 1 City of Stillwater Heritage Preservation Commission April 3 2006 does not fit with the floor plan as shown Mr Johnson suggested that the window not be eliminated but replaced with a pair of windows Mr Harycki said during the March public hearing many neighbors expressed concern about drainage issues and wondered whether the Infill guidelines call for drainage issues to be addressed Mr Turnblad pointed out drainage issues will be addressed as part of the resubdivision permit process Two neighbors were present Joann Loer 1114 N William and Jeff Benson 1120 N William Both reiterated a concern about drainage issues Mr Benson also reiterated a concern about the proximity of the driveway to existing utility meters There was a question as to whether to table the case again due to the applicant s absence Due to the 60-day review rule it was decided to act on the case Mr Johnson moved to approve plans for both structures as conditioned with the additional conditions that the belt line for the single unit be lowered to match the floor elevation or eave line that the second -story window in the duplex unit that conflicts with the floor plan be replaced with two separate sash windows that the 5x5 picture window be replaced with a double sash window that the coach lights be replaced with shielded/recessed fixtures that vertical elements be added to the duplex unit and that the engineer review the drainage plan and proximity of the driveway to existing utility meters Mr Peterson seconded the motion motion passed unanimously Case No DR/06-17 Design review of parking lot and 25 x 50 deck at 101 Third St S (American Legion Post 48) in the CBD Central Business District David Swanson representing American Legion Post 48 Present were Dave Swanson Curt Newcomb and Post 48 Commander Robert Hart Mr Newcomb explained that rather than a deck as initially proposed plans now call for an elevated patio with block retaining wall Mr Newcomb noted the Legion had purchased the parking lot behind their building which they plan to surface with pavers Mr Newcomb addressed some of the staff comments He said there are plans to screen the access along Myrtle Street Regarding the comments about color palette he said they are looking at different tones with the paver blocks and believe the patio and paver colors can be brought together Lighting will not be intrusive he said Ambient lighting is all that is proposed the existing street light will be the primary light source he said The patio he said would provide space for a few tables with umbrellas there will be no outside bar Mr Johnson asked is there would be a walkway from the patio to the front of the main structure Mr Newcomb said the only access to the patio would be from the inside of the main building or the parking lot Mr Johnson also asked about plans for the patio railing and how it would be attached Mr Newcomb noted that the railing will have to meet code and will likely be painted treated lumber or perhaps wrought iron Mr Newcomb said they plan to do some screening of the railing such as with flower planters The railing Mr Newcomb said will be attached to the concrete slab patio Mr Newcomb also stated the Legion would like to complete the patio this summer in asking for concept approval of the plans Mr Johnson moved to approve the plans for the modular block retaining wall and concrete slab patio with details regarding the railing lighting landscaping and paver/block materials to be submitted for final review Mr Turnblad asked that a condition be added to provide a site plan 2 City of Stillwater Heritage Preservation Commission April 3 2006 for access points which Mr Johnson added to his motion Mr Eastwood seconded the motion motion passed unanimously Case No DR/06-18 Design review to replace an existing entry door at 102 S Second St (Gazette Building) in the CBD Central Business District John Harvey Harvey Woodruff LLC applicant John Harvey was present Mr Harvey explained his request to replace the existing door with an anodized aluminum door In addition to safety issues he said the existing door is very heavy and does not close properly The transom would stay, he said He said he is requesting to use metal because of the cost involved also he said metal weathers better Mr Tomten asked Mr Harvey if he had looked at maintaining the profile of a wood -width door Mr Harvey said that too would require a custom-made door and he suggested the door is not that visible to passers-by Mr Johnson and Mr Nelson spoke in favor of the use of wood as being more historically correct Mr Johnson suggested that the existing door might be rehinged to address the safety issue Mr Harvey reiterated that it would cost $3 000 to install a new metal door versus $10 000 for a new wooden door Mr Eastwood asked if Mr Harvey would consider using a wooden door if it is determined it is economically feasible Mr Harvey responded that he would not consider that option Mr Harvey former owner of the Bourdaghs Building also stated he took exception to several comments made during the discussion of Case No DR/06-15 Mr Harvey s position was duly noted for the record Mr Lieberman pointed out that the use of colored anodized aluminum is acceptable according to the downtown design guidelines Mr Eastwood seconded by Mr Peterson moved to approve the plans to replace the building door with a bronze anodized aluminum door as submitted Motion passed unanimously Other items Stillwater Mills on Main — Dave May Four Star Land Development was present Mr May acknowledged the concern regarding the roof vents as discussed at the last meeting He said the plumbing stacks can all be cut off 10-12 above the roof membrane when completed He noted the rubber boot of the roof extends 9-10 to accommodate major rain events so the plumbing vents when cut will extend only 2-3 above the boot He said all the skylights furnace vents and other roof vents were identified in the original drawings submitted to the City and said the developer is not asking for more then identified in those drawings Mr May also noted the developer was not given the opportunity to ventilate out the sides of the building with the exception of the air conditioning units And he said the HPC s directive was to have no mechanicals on the roof Mr Harycki noted that the vents are visible not just from Second Street but can be seen from areas of the South Hill as well Mr Harycki said Council Members have been receiving many calls of concern about this issue and he said screening/shrubbery as proposed in a letter from Mr May is not enough to mitigate the concerns Mr May reiterated his statement that plumbing vents will not be the issue as they can be cut off The problem Mr May said is with the exhaust vents for fireplaces dryers and bathrooms which must be 48' above the roof deck and 36 from 3 City of Stillwater Heritage Preservation Commission April 3 2006 fresh air returns Mr May said they are looking at a process of painting almost all of the vents to match the roof surface Mr Lieberman said he could not recall what the HPC originally approved and asked if it would make sense to hold a workshop on just this issue and at that workshop have all past records available so the Commission knows if fact what was approved Mr Harycki said the public wants to know what is going to be done about this issue Mr Johnson suggested that to quell some of the concern the developer cut the plumbing vents short and paint them as soon as possible and see what comments are received — change the situation and show what might work he suggested Mr Zahren asked about installing some type of screening over the entire roof Mr May said that creates a problem with roof point Toads and ventilation issues Mr May said he would like to do as Mr Johnson suggested cut the public vents and paint and see what input is received Brian Larson 2008 Hazel Court offered comments He said given the geography of the area the roof should have been the design starting point the primary design element He suggested that either the developer knew what the roof would look like and felt it would be acceptable or had no idea of what it would look like Mr Larson also stated that the City should ask for more than landscaping and paint and he noted that the more time that goes by the more expensive any solution will be for the developer Mr Larson called for the developer to offer a real significant compromise and reduce the number of stacks by consolidating the stacks or some venting through the sides of units Mr May pointed out that 2/3 of the building is dry walled and said he wasn t sure if the vents can be consolidated at this point Mr Larson asked that the developer investigate the possibility of consolidating/reducing vents to determine if it is feasible Mr Harycki noted this issue will be a Council Request Item at the April 4 Council meeting to let the public know what s going on The public needs input, he said Mr Eastwood wondered if this issue had moved past the HPC and become more of a Council issue Mr Lieberman said the HPC has an obligation to push forward If an impasse is reached then the matter goes to the Council he said And Mr Lieberman again said the HPC needs to see the record pertaining to the issue Mr Lieberman suggested holding a joint workshop with the Council and have the developer present three different concrete alternatives with cost options for mitigating the venting Mr Turnblad was asked to provide a record of the past actions for the Commission Mr May said he was not sure if he could get definitive costs should the workshop be scheduled within two weeks as was mentioned It was agreed that the developer could proceed with cutting/painting/removing bags from a portion of the roof Mr Tomten pointed out that the Commission and others should not forget the height allowance If the developer had been allowed to step the building up along Second Street the structure could have been 35' higher than the existing building Maybe the Commission paid too much attention to the view of the structure from Main Street he said but he pointed out that folks still have a view of the River from Pioneer Park, which is better than no view at all 4 City of Stillwater Heritage Preservation Commission April 3 2006 Regarding scheduling a joint workshop it was decided that if the Council is amenable to such a joint meeting the HPC will be available Mr Lieberman moved to refer the decision regarding the workshop to the Council and await its recommendation with the issue to be on the HPC s May agenda for further discussion Mr Eastwood seconded the motion motion passed unanimously Mr Eastwood seconded by Mr Johnson moved to adjourn at 9 p m Respectfully submitted Sharon Baker Recording Secretary 5 City of Stillwater Heritage Preservation Commission April 19, 2006 Present Howard Lieberman, Chairman, Jeff Johnson, Phil Eastwood and Scott Zahren Others Bob Lockyear and Bob May, representing Mills on Main The meeting was convened at 6 p m at the Stillwater City Hall The Chair moved the meeting to the "Mills on Main" location for color review Mr May explained his color choices on the roof vents and then went on to explain the proposed choices on the garage entry doors on the Mulberry Street side of the building He then explained the color choices for the various facades between the brick work After much discussion the four members present offered suggestions as to the final colors however there were no decisions made on color choice Mr May indicated that he will provide an updated set of colors choices in line with the suggestions of the Heritage Preservation Commission at their May 1, 2006 meeting The meeting was adjourned at 7 10 PM Respectfully submitted Bob Lockyear Memorandum City of Stillwater Community Development Department To Hentage Preservation Commission From Bill Turnblad, Community Development Director Date Apnl 27, 2006 Re Stillwater Medical Group Clinic Sign Permit Design Review Case DR/06-21 BACKGROUND The Stillwater Medical Group Clinic at 1500 Curve Crest Boulevard is neanng completion of its expansion project Consequently, Designer Sign Systems has submitted a signage permit application in hopes of having signs in place before the new facilities open ANALYSIS The clinic is proposing to remove the existing freestanding sign at its current main entrance The new main entrance will be further to the west At this entrance will be a new freestanding sign The base and pillar matenals will be similar to those found on the clinic's extenor elevations Also, in order to direct users of the facility to the correct areas of the campus, five directional signs are proposed A Freestanding Sign Twd; JG/ a J r 14c-ai,4 444,11.4 c m�h a Details i As seen in the attached drawings, the freestanding sign will be 6 feet tall and include a sign face of 37 2 square feet The aluminum faces will be painted navy blue with lettenng that will be translucent white and illuminated internally The sign will maintain a setback of 15 feet from the front property line b Performance Standards i City Code Section 31, Subd 26 (Zoning Code, Sign Regulations), Paragraph (9)b includes performance standards for freestanding signs in the BP zoning distncts The clinic is located within a BP zoning distnct 1 Surface area may not exceed 100 square feet The proposed 37 2 square foot sign does not exceed this maximum standard 2 Only one freestanding sign is allowed per development Only one is proposed for the clinic Clinic sign permit Page 2 3 The sign must maintain at least a 15 foot setback from front and side property lines The side property line is well over 15 feet away from the proposed sign location, and the sign will built at the 15 foot front setback line 4 City Code Section 31, Subd 26 (Zoning Code, Sign Regulations), Paragraph (12) a states that freestanding signs along Curve Crest Boulevard between Greeley and Washington Avenue may not exceed a height of six feet The proposed freestanding sign has a height of six feet ii The West Business Park Design Guidelines, which the clinic property is subject to, states on Page 20, Paragraph 4 that freestanding signs are required to have a landscaped area of shrubs or flowers around the base of the sign This landscaping area is to have twice the square footage of the sign Therefore, the proposed 37 2 square foot sign face requires at least a 74 4 square foot landscaped bed around the sign base B Directional signs a Details i As seen in the attached drawings, there are five proposed directional signs All of these signs share the same shape, navy blue and white color scheme, and aluminum matenals Each sign will be under six feet in height The sign faces will be either 5 6 square feet in area or 8 3 square feet in area, depending upon the directions given and motonst visibility Location of the signs can be seen in the attached site plan b Performance standards i The City Code defines a directional sign (Ch 31, Subd 26(3)) as "an official sign that contains no advertising and provides direction or instruction to guide persons or vehicles " Unfortunately, the term "official sign" is not defined anywhere Moreover, except for the defimtion of a directional sign, the ordinance never mentions where they are allowed and gives no performance standards for them Therefore, the City Code gives no clear standards to review the proposed directional signs against ii It is reasonable to expect that a campus setting such as the expanded clinic needs to direct motonsts to vanous areas on the campus Moreover, the five proposed directional signs seem to be reasonably proportioned and designed ALTERNATIVES The Heritage Preservation Commission has several options 1 Approve the sign permit design review 2 Approve the sign permit design review with modifications or conditions 3 Deny the sign permit review Clinic sign permit Page 3 RECOMMENDATION Staff finds that the signage package meets all Code specific performance standards except that landscaping must be provided around the base of the sign Therefore, we recommend Alternative 2, with the condition that a landscape plan must be submitted and approved by the Community Development Director pnor to issuance of a sign permit

comnmtment to prowling a place for sty oriented services that improve the felon of down loam Sblhvater This development will complete an eight year process that transformed two blocks of unoccupied blight into over 80 000 gsf of community oriented mixed use space Project Goals The development was the impetus for improvements to the nver front City parking lots, over 110 spaces Mulberry Point, Water Street Improvements and development on North Main Street The conmplebon of the Maple Island project provides an increase parcel valuation from $600 000 in 1997 to over $12M It will also provide over 120 new full time jobs downtown We feel this project exemplifies a process that incorporates Met Council incentives City of Stilhvater goals and pirate development ambitions that contribute to the future of Stillwater Project Scope MDP is proposing removing the Maple Island Hardware building and surface parking lot Replacmg it will be 14 000 gsf of ground floor community serviaehetail space (committed tenant) that is accessible to street level at Main Street with seance and pedestnan access from Water Street The second floor provides 14 000 gsf of Bass A office space (committed tenant) with access from Mann Street The third and fourth floor loft provides seven 2000 gsf residential units The development is served by private underground parking for 31wdh enclosed trash sernce Project Design The architectural design is sympathetic to the current complaints regarding busking heights The bolting massing and material use draws insprabon from neighboring bu ikbngs both tnstonc and contemporary Bulking massing is broken into three masses on Main Street The taller mass (center containing the loft units) is stepped back from the bulling face to reduce the impact of the 43' height and includes architectural features, balcony structure and bay window to reduce scale The north and south masses include copper dad box bays and cybnxtncai tower elements that reduce scale and provide pedestrian shelter Main Street pedestnan level uses storefront glazing with transom panels, steel posts and lintels and detailed base panels. Mulberry elevation provides covered bulking access/egress highlighted with capper nvdpant, dividing the braking mass m half This etevabon takes up a 6 grade dfference that starts at the comer entrance at Main to service access at Water Water Street elevation continues the pattern of service access that occurs on both south and north Water Street Access to the underground parking and trash occur at grade level Semi trailer access oocxrs off street, screened by a low bnck retaining wall Service and access are protected by a sloped metal shed roof Above the service roof are copper box bays and comer towers that break up the bnck mass. Roof design includes architectural features enclosing vent pipes (trellis and planters) screened HVAC units and a elegant awed metal roof The remaining flat roof will have a pool with deicing gray trap rock ballast and gray access pavers. Details incorporated in the deign will be fish and water oriented Some of these details mdude copper 'fish scale' shingles fish embossed copper base panels, fish and waves cast m the concrete base and wavy wrought iron fencing and balustrades This final phase requires resolution to three issues to make it a success, 1 Development in the FEMA flood plain, MDP has initiated the MT 1 elevation based on fill map revision application seeking the FEMA elevation certificate 2 MDP LLC is requesting the city vacate the parking easement on the property 3 Preliminary parking requirement totals for the project are 63 stalls, the project provides 31 NDNi ARA S N� 1389) KW.

V Stefan --N.C€,Z15-1 Design Guidelines o Dependent on building design, no setback may be required along Main Street o Required parking shall be provided on site. o Access to parking areas shall be limited to Mulberry and Main Street for commercial uses. o The project design and landscape plan should complement the new streetscape design for the North Main Street area. o A landscaped buffer or residential use shall be located along Second Street o The Central Business District and Downtown Design Guidelines shall be met. Special Site #6 The Maple Island site includes the Maple Island Plant, Water Street and existing railroad spur to the east. The full potential of the approximately two acre site is dependent on the vacation of Water Street and removal of railroad storage tracks. Without railroad tracks removed, visual as well as pedestrian access to the river is limited. The site is cri- tical to the Downtown because it provides a link between the South Main Street existing historic retail/office area and the North Main Street activity area The site could connect the river and Mulberry Point to Main Street and has the potential to create a central major focal point for Downtown The site presents an opportunity to retain the zero setback Main Street edge while providing a more contem- porary site development design The design plan calls for a mixed use, office/retail/housing complex with market plaza and arcade opening up to the river. The site also has potential for a hotel/mixed use project with its proximity 48-A D),,,o, r-p r(/.c Fu C c-7t r3 ) ILA N to Downtown, the marina and river. Lands to the south, west or east of the site could be included in the project depending on the development concept. Preferred Land Use Mixed use, retail/office/residential or hotel/retail. Design Guidelines. o The project design should take full advantage of the river by providing views and pedestrian access. o Main Street building setback shall be determined by building design, provision of pedestrian amenities, and sensitivity to Main Street. o A market plaza or similar public open space pedestrian amenity, connecting Main Street to the river, should be incorporated into the design of the site. o The project landscape plan and design shall complement the new streetscape plan for Mulberry Boulevard and North Main Street. o Adequate right-of-way shall be provided for Mulberry Boulevard improvements. o The project shall meet the Central Business District and Floodplain regulations and the Downtown Design Guidelines. South Riverfront Property, Site #7 This City -owned site runs from the parking lot just south of Brick Alley and the southern boundaries of Lowell Park to Sunnyside Marina to the south as shown on Figure 6. The site represents tremendous opportunity for addition to the City riverfront parks and open space system The site is currently leased from the City for river barge operations. 49 1 Overview of Design Manual Design Principles for New Construction New infill buildings should fit into the fabnc of existing buildings and the overall streetscape and not present a jarring cohtrast with what is already there Therefore, design guidelines for existing storefronts also hold true for new construction The basic principle for new construction in histonc Downtown Stillwater is to maintain the scale and character of present buildings Generally new structures should provide height, massing, setback, materials and rhythm compatibility to surrounding structures The reproduction of histonc design and details is expensive, artificial and is recommended only in some special cases of infill or small-scale construction Design Principles for Restoration and Rehabilitation Many buildings in Downtown Stillwater retain their original character, there are also many buildings that have been altered so drastically since they were first constructed that little remains of their original design Rear walls and upper floors of older buildings sometimes show their ongmal character and from these areas one can imagine the ongmal appearance of the fronts of these buildings Of course, old photos are also helpful, and an abundance of photographic evidence is available at the State Histonc Preservation Office, the Washington County Histoncal Society and the John Runk photo collection at the Stillwater Public Library To the extent possible, modification to storefronts and building facades should seek to remove inconsistent present layers of siding and signage to emphasize the design and matenals of the ongmal building New designs may be appropriate if the building has been altered to the point that the ongmal design has been destroyed Any new design should respect the proportions as well as the detailing of the ongmal design and should use matenals, which are consistent with those used in the ongmal buildings New design elements such cloth awnings, flower boxes or signage which did not exist at previous times may be appropriate to give the building both color and character Care must be taken so design elements are not applied which attempt to make a building appear as if it is from a period or style other than it really is General pnncipals for restoration and rehabilitation are taken from the Secretary of Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation All work should be of a character and quality that maintains the distinguishing features of the building and environment The removal of architectural features is not permitted Detenorated architectural features should be repaired rather than replaced whenever possible In the event of replacement, new materials should match the ongmal in composition, design color, texture and appearance Duplication of ongmal design based on physical or pictorial evidence is preferable to using conjectural of "penod" designs or using parts of other buildings Distinctive stylistic features or examples of skilled craftsmanship charactenstic of structures of a penod should be treated sensitively Furthermore, if changes m use of a building are contemplated, they should be accomplished with minimum alteration to the structure and fabnc In general, it is expected that buildings will be restored to their ongmal appearance However, alterations to buildings are significant because they reflect the history of the building and the distnct This significance should be respected and restoration to an �ongmal appearance may not always be desirable All buildings should be recognized as products of their own time (Example A building that was constructed in 1890 should resemble a building from 1890 ) DESIGN MANUAL, COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT STILLWATER, MINNESOTA 5 Overview of Design Manual Pedestrian -Oriented Design Background Throughout history there have been places m the city where people could go to see people, and be seen Downtown Main Street Stillwater has played its traditional role as a place where people can meet, see others, and be seen themselves This is part of what makes it so special It is often the downtown main street that identifies an independent small town from genenc suburban environments Maintaining the pedestnan quality of the main street through the use of "pedestrian -oriented design" is critical We know that this design works because it is this 'promenade' model of a traditional main street that has been copied m every regional shopping mall ever created Guidelwes • The design of the building should help make the street enjoyable, visually interesting and comfortable Individual buildings should be integrated with the streetscape to bang activity in the building in direct contact with the people on the street • Avoid blank walls, closed curtains, and neglected storefronts These are all pedestrian turn-offs Put two or three in a row and you've killed the attraction to pedestrians It doesn't work in a mall and it doesn't work downtown • Natural light should be allowed to penetrate into the store interior • Displays should allow the customer a full view of the store intenor • Window displays should be attractive when viewed from both the sidewalk and the store mtenor • Light fixtures should be hidden from view • Window displays should allow people in the store to see out • Existing uninteresting street facades can be enhanced with detailing, artwork, landscaping or other visually interesting features DESIGN MANUAL COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT, STILLWATER MINNESOTA 1 i Overview of Design Manual Trademark Building Design Background Trademark buildings have been designed in such a way as to make the services or goods sold immediately recognizable through the use of a specific architectural design, materials and colors of the building These were first developed on or near high-speed freeways where taking the time to read a sign would be too difficult Such designs are generally in conflict wilh the charactenstics of pedestnan oriented commercial storefronts Guidelines • Trademark buildings are prohibited DESIGN MANUAL, COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT STILLWATER, MINNESOTA 7 Design Criteria Design Guidehnes The following guidelines, for the most part, deal with general rather than specific design elements in order to provide direction yet stimulate and encourage architectural innovation • Setback • Proportion • Height • Parking • Rear Entrances • Roofs • Utility Areas and Mechanical Equipment • Detailing • Facade Openings • Matenals • Color • Lighting • Awnings • Signs and Graphics • Architectural Signs • Storefront Signs • Window Signs • Projecting Signs • Painted Wall Signs and Murals • Landscaping DESIGN MANUAL COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT STILLWATER, MINNESOTA 1 Setback Background Nothing does more to negatively change the social space of a small downtown street than the front building setback The recent emphasis onthe automobile and parking lots in front of commercial structures can effectively destroy a pedestrian expinence It is far better to build nght up to the sidewalk and facilitate the chances for browsing social interaction and people watching On occasion creating public space with a larger building setback can be successful, if the emphasis remains on creating a space that complements and enhances the streetscape Guidelines • Infill buildings shall be built to the Main Street front property line, flush to adjacent buildings Exceptions may be granted if the setback is pedestrian onented and contnbutes to the quality and character of Main Street • Arcades adjacent to Main Street sidewalks are encouraged to increase the effective width of the narrow sidewalks and provide a sheltered pedestnan path along store display windows • No side setbacks are allowed unless next to a public pedestnan way AVOID SETBACK FROM ADJACENT BUILDINGS BUILD IN LINE WITH ADJACENT BUILDINGS DESIGN MANUAL COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT STILLWATER, MINNESOTA 10 1 J Proportion Backround On Main Street new building with wide disproportionate dimensions can easily disrupt the existing pattern of narrow lots and reletively high and narrow individual facades Also, wide undifferentiated walls or windows can drastically impact the existing pattern of narrow, high facade openings such as windows and doorways Guideknes • The proportion of infill buildings should be sympathetic to the proportion of their neighbors • Break up building masses into units of scale that relate to adjacent structures • Design facade details, window openings and entries to conform to approximately the same proportional patterns of adjacent structures I L DESIGN MANUAL, COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT STILLWATER MINNESOTA 11 Height Background This is one of the important elements to consider when designing new structures or additions to existing structures While vaned heights can mix with each other in visually interesting ways, a building, which is significantly taller than adjacent development, will senously disrupt the existing scale of the downtown area Guideknes • The heights of new buildings shall conform to the average height of buildings on the block street face • The height of new buildings shall be four (4) stones and fifty -feet (50') maximum or two (2) stones minimum, and within ten percent (10%) of existing adjacent buildings • Proposals should stnve to maintain compatibility with adjacent cornice lines, floor to floor heights where these are strongly expressed, sign bands, and any other elements which serve to unify the street elevation as a whole

important factors in ensuring commercial success and maintaining a unique pedestrian expenence Guidelines • Every effort should be made to maximize the retail space directly on Main Street and locate parking areas behind the buildings • Parking lots should be screened from the street and the sidewalk either by walls or plantings or both If walls are used, their matenal should be compatible with the walls of existing adjacent buildings Walls should be at least eighteen inches (18") high • Parking structures should take advantage of the topography of the site to conceal the structure to the extent possible from public view The same care should be taken in the design of the parking as with any other building regarding setbacks, height, proportions facade openings, detailing and matenals The structure should complement the streetscape through the accent landscaping or other pedestrian amenities • Parking structures shall be designed to minimize the use of blank facades directly on the street DESIGN MANUAL, COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT STILLWATER MINNESOTA 13 Rear Entrances Background In the past, rear entrances served as service entrances only and were not intended for public use Today, with the emphasis on automobile parking taking place behind businesses, the rear entrance is an important public access Guidelines • The rear facade entrance should be clean and well maintained and present a welcome appearance A small sign, awnings, display DESIGN MANUAL COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT, STILLWATER, MINNESOTA 14 1 _p windows and planter boxes can improve the appearance DESIGN MANUAL COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT STILLWATER MINNESOTA 15 Roofs Background One of the major differences between residential and commercial buildings is the roof pitch form of slopmg or pitched roof whereas commercial structures are known for their reletivly wall plane If this vertical extension is low, it is known as a parapet, if the extension beyond of the building, it is known as a false front Guidelines • The predominant roof shape in the commercial core is flat (slightly sloped to often embellished with bnck detailing, are often stepped or sloped to achieve along the building facade • Infill building roofs shall be flat or gently pitched and hidden behind parapet • Roof edges should be related in size and proportion to adjacent buildings or roofline Residemial structures usually have some flat roofs, often hidden by the extension of the from the roof plane is great, sometimes doubling the height dram), with articulated parapets These parapets, a visually mteresting yet harmonious sequence walls that articulate the rhythm of the building DESIGN MANUAL, COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT, STILLWATER, MINNESOTA 16 J Utility Areas and Mechanical Equipment Background Histoncally, utility areas or service entrances were accomodated off of a service alley Today, many of those service alleys or streets are now utilized by pedestrians as entrances from off street parking areas Also, the amount of mechanical equipment has increased dramatically, therefore it is important to minimize the visual impact as much as possible Guidelines • Screen exterior trash and storage areas, service yards, loading areas, transformers and air conditioning units from view of nearby streets and adjacent structures in a manner that is compatible with the building and site design All roof equipment shall be screened from public view • Use architectural elements to screen mechanical equipment In attempting TO create the most aesthetic pedestrian expenence possible, it is important to conceal the visually intrusive material from view DESIGN MANUAL, COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT STILLWATER, MINNESOT A 17 Detailing Background Downtown Stillwater has an assortment of masonry structures from the 1860's — 1940's m ltahanate, Queen Anne and Classical Revival styles, to name just a few The architectural ornamentation includes a vanety of decorative features charactenstic of early commercial storefronts Articulated tin cornices, corbelled bnckwork, pronounced window lintels and sills are examples of the ornamentation most often seen m Stillwater's Histonc Downtown District Guidelines • The charactenstic architectural features should never be removed or altered unless it is absolutely necessary • Building alterations should restore architectural details of cornices, lintels, brick arches, chimneys and ironwork of the onginal building as appropnate and feasable • Where detailing has already been removed, every effort should be made to replicate them The use of the extensive historic photographic records of Downtown Stillwater is highly recommended to discover missmg detaihlmg • Infill architecture should reflect some of the detailing of surrounding buildings in window shape, cornice lines and bnck work DESIGN MANUAL COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT STILLWATER MINNESOTA 18 1 J Facade Openings Background It is important to recognize the difference between upper story openings and storefront, or street level openings There is a much greater transparent or glazed open area at storefront level, for pedestnans to have a better view of the merchandise displayed behmd, there are wide windows and tittle or no spacing between openings Upper story openings are predominantly narrow with a vertical onentation that accompanies double -hung wmdows Guidelines • The size and proportion of windows and door openings of an mfill building should be similar to those on the adjacent facades • Avoid infill panels when providing new windows in existing masonry openings • Storefront restoration should return the facade to its original character appropnate • Avoid concealing the onginal facade The majority of storefronts have very common elements that include (1) entries, (2) kick plates, (3) display windows, (4) transom windows and a horizontal area for a canopy or sign Transom windows Display windows Entry Kick Plates DESIGN MANUAL, COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT STILLWATER MINNESOTA 19 Facade Openings 1 TRANSOM WINDOWS Background Transom windows were smaller windows above the display wmdows that functioned as early energy savers They allowed daylight to enter deep into the interior of the space When operable they allowed excessive heat to escape Transoms also continued the transparent quality of the storefront up to the top "frame" of the front facade and are therefore an important element in the proportion of the building front Guidelines Often transom windows can still be found in downtown buildings underneath exterior cover-ups, and or above dropped ceilings They should be retained whenever possible If the ceiling inside the store has been lowered, the ceiling could slope up 2-3 feet back to meet the transom, or dark painted panels can be placed behind transom windows to help simulate transparency and depth 2 DISPLAY WINDOWS Background The display window is the link between the pedestrian environment outside and the business inside Guidelines • A minimum of sixty percent (60%) of the street level Main Street facade shall be transparent and thirty percent (30%) on side streets or rear facades • For remodeling, the original size, division and shape of display windows within the overall storefront frame should be preserved • For an infill building, window frames should be wood, or appropnately colored aluminum or vinyl clad • Reflective glass is prohibited • Mirrored or heavily tinted glass on the first floor or street level should not be used because it conveys a conflicting modern design feeling It also creates a blank wall effect, which may be offensive to the pedestrian DESIGN MANUAL COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT, STILLWATER, MINNESOTA 20 1 1 Facade Openings 3 ENTRIES Background Commercial storefront entrees were typically recessed from the front plane of the structure This provided a sheltered transition area to the intenor of the store, more area for display space, and helped to emphasize the location of the entrance Guidelines • Recessed entnes should be retained in existing buildings and required in new storefront construction • Commercial entry doors use large, glass panels with vertical proportions to aid a sense of mvitation and openness to the business • Solid or residential -type doors with small areas of glass should be avoided • Openings containing double entry doors should be retained • Painted wood doors and wood framing are preferred Aluminum doors and doorframes, aluminum windows and their accessones with a clear aluminum finish are not acceptable, although colored anodized aluminum is acceptable 4 KICK PLATES Background The kick plate, or bulkhead, functions to protect the display window by raising the glass area to a safer and more easily viewed height Histoncally, matenals have included wood panels, stone, bnck and ceramic tile Guidelines • The onginal kick plate matenals should always be retained, maintained, or uncovered when possible DESIGN MANUAL COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT, STILLWATER MINNESOTA 21 Materials Background Buildings within the commercial core were constructed with bnck, stone or wood Many of the ongmal wood buildings have been lost to fire or decay, leaving the masonry buildings as the lone remnants Compatability with sinular extenor construction materials in the immediate area is recommended in order to maintain the distinct character and harmony of the area Guidelines • An infill building and facade should be composed of materials similar to ongmal adjacent facades (example local brick or stone) • New buildings should not stand out against the others but be compatable with the general area • The use of exposed or painted concrete masonry units is not acceptable • The use of materials that attempt to mimic traditional materials is unacceptable An example would be fiberglass panels that are molded to look like real bnck, or vinyl molded to look like wood horizontal lap siding AVOID INRODUCING DISSIMILAR MATERIALS DESIGN MANUAL COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT STILLWATER, MINNESOTA 22 1 Color Background The relationship of the colors and tones used on new or improved structures must be compatible with the color and tone patterns already established by adjacent buildmgs The tasteful use of color and accent can introduce variety and charm, whereas the mdiscnmmate use of colors and color combinations can overload the senses and produce visual conflict and chaos Exercise caution m the use of colors and tone combinations and their patterns The goal is to achieve an area -wide complementary blend of background colors combined with selected and hmited uses of pnmary and focal colors GuideLnes • The color of buildings should relate to the adjacent buildings colors to create a harmonious effect • Avoid colors which visually overpower or strongly contrast with adjacent building colors and established downtown color schemes as a whole • The color of beck or other natural building materials should dictate the color family choice • Painting new infill buildings is prohibited DESIGN MANUAL, COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT, STILLWATER, MINNESOTA 23 Lighting Background Lighting can add special character to the nighttime appearance of the Downtown It can illuminate building entrances, pedestrian walkways, and advertising or floodlight special buildings However, if left without consideration of the entire downtown expenence, unchecked hghtmg can produce visual chaos, waste energy and create safety concerns Guidelines • A coordinated lighting plan should be submitted for review with building plans Provide information on each individual light fixture proposed, including fixture sections, lamp type and wattage • Lighting fixtures should be concealed or integrated into the overall design of the project The light source should be hidden from direct pedestrian or motorist view • Unshielded wall pack light fixtures are not appropriate DESIGN MANUAL COMMERCIAL HISTORIC DISTRICT STILLWATER, MINNESOTA 24 1 J Awnings Background Histoncally, awnings were a frequent feature of the commercial buildings downtown Photographic records show how the use of awnings softened an otherwise hard and ngid streetscape Their main function was to shade the building and the merchendise, however, they were retractable to allow more daylight in when needed Secondanly, the awnings provided protection for pedestnans and only on occasion did the awning get used for signage Lettenng on the awnings was seen only on the front valance so it was visiable when the awning was either in the lowered or raised position Guidelines • Retractable or operable awning are encouraged Fixed awnings should mimic the profile of operable units (one to one pitch) • The emphasis of the awning should remain one of shelter and protection, rather than signage In keeping with this, the awning should be loose and flowing, not stretched tight, subtle and subdued in color, not bnght, extending well out over the sidewalk, not a mere window dressing • The width of awnings should fit the geometry of the building facade They should not extend across multiple storefronts of different buildings, but should reflect the window or door openings below • The use of water-repellent or vinyl -coated canvas is in keeping with awnings of the time Plastic or aluminum awnings or canopies are not appropriate • Fixed, round -headed awnings will be considered only over arched windows or doors, and only if placed below or within the arched lintel • The awning valance, or skirt, shall be proportioned to the size of the awning But shall not exceed twelve (12) inches in height • Signing on awnings is permitted (in place of other sign types) on the end panel or front valance only Use lettering size proportional to the space available • Back lighting of the awnings is inappropriate, • Use plain or striped fabncs Large areas of bright colors are inappropnate DESIGN MANUAL

Director'T Date Apnl 26, 2006 Re American Legion Post No 48 Deck and Parking Lot Improvements Case DR/06-1 BACKGROUND David Swanson has submitted a Design Review application on behalf of the American Legion Post No 48, which is located at 103 South 3rd Street The Amencan Legion recently purchased the parking lot abutting their building on the lower east side and would like to construct a deck there They would also like to provide off-street parking for the residents of the second floor apartments and a -few extra spaces for members or employees ANALYSIS The proposed wooden deck is planned to be constructed on the southeast portion of the Legion building Dimensions of the deck would be 25 feet by 50 feet Improvements would include a new door with sidelights from the lounge area to the deck a new 150 by 65 ' window to match the existing window, new extenor wall lights brick wall and lattice work under the deck, shrubbery around the deck and parking lot and paving of the parking lot Details of the improvements are presented in the attachments Design Manual Guidelines The property is located within the City s histonc downtown commercial distract Consequently the design standards found in the "Design Manual, Commercial Histonc Distract, Stillwater, Minnesota apply to the property The portions of the manual that seem to apply to the proposal are reviewed below 1 Parking a Parking areas should be screened from the street and the sidewalk either by walls or plantings or both If walls are used their material should be compatible with the walls of existing adjacent buildings Walls should be at least 18 high i Shrubbery is proposed along the Myrtle Street side of the parking lot The type of shrubbery proposed grows between three to six feet tall at matunty The Legion should keep this trimmed so it does not grow much over four feet tall, otherwise all view is blocked off from pedestnan traffic 2 Rear Entrances a The rear facade entrance should be clean and well maintained and present a welcome appearance A small sign awnings display windows and planter boxes can improve appearance Page 2 American Legion i The rear door is not intended as a public entrance It would serve as an exit from the building to the deck None the less, the rear facade is currently very utilitarian without architectural articulation Some type of treatment would add to the character of the rear facade Additional windows and a door are proposed, this together with the decorative wall lights will help 3 Color a The color palette standards found in the manual are specifically related to buildings new or renovated They are not specifically intended for accessory structures None the less the guidelines should be applied fpractical i A specific color scheme has not been submitted yet Generally, the Legion is proposing a wood deck with color that would complement the existing brick of the building 4 Lighting a A coordinated lighting plan should be submitted Lighting fixtures should be concealed or integrated into the overall design of the project The light source should be hidden from direct pedestrian or motorist view i Currently a parking lot light exists along the edge of the legion property This will provide the majority of the light to the deck In addition, decorative carnage lights are proposed to be installed on the wall along the deck This can be seen in the attached photograph The proposed fixtures will have faux candles that will be directly visible However given their location on the southeast corner of the building, they should not be perceived as glaring either by motorists or pedestrians passing by on Myrtle Street ALTERNATIVES The Heritage Preservation Commission has several options 1 Approve the design review application 2 Approve the design review application with modifications or conditions 3 Deny the design review application RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends Alternative 2 with the following conditions 1 A proposed color palate for the improvements is to be submitted and approved by the Community Development Director if authonzed by the Hentage Preservation Commission 2 A detailed site plan is to be submitted together with the building permit application It will have to show at least the surveyed lot lines, existing building location, proposed improvement location (including stairways), curb cut and dnve aisle for the parking lot cc David Swanson Jeff Ous Attachments Picture of existing rear elevation Letter from applicant Application packet Design details A VILRICAN LEGION POS i NO 48 103 South Third Street March 17, 2006 Heritage Preservation City of Stillwater AND Phone 439 1435 LEGION CLUB Stillwater, Minnesota 55082 American Legion Post 48 recently purchased the dirt parking lot to the east of our present building with the intent to provide some off street parking and to prevent a high-rise type building being built alongside of our building The parking lot is to be paved in early May of 2006 We would like to build a 25'X50' deck or patio along side of our building on the SW corner of our lot and abutting our building on the SE If we build a deck we would have the colonng closely match our bnck On the other hand if we build a concrete patio we would have the concrete stained to closely match the bnck If we decide to go with a concrete patio we would probably have decorative wrought iron railings We are investigating the cost of both options and time is of the essence if we are to have the project completed for our summer season G7'v"-f--t`��AJ C2444 471 L DESIGN REVIEW

A description of the building or structure or portion of building or structure to be demolished; The building is a one and a half story structure, rectangular floor plan with a gabled roof. The ridge of the roof runs the long axis of the building and the slope is fairly shallow (approx. 6:12). The structure sits on a foundation of concrete and field stone on a sloping site. The west foundation wall, one of the long walls, is a walk -out condition, and is a wood frame wall. Reports from the previous owner and visual evidence indicates that water penetrates the foundation. The layout and grading of the site would indicate that surface run-off is directed toward the house from the east. The main floor framing is exposed in the basement and consists of timber posts and beams with dimension floor framing members. The remainder of the structure would appear to be wood framing with wide exposure hori- zontal lap siding. The windows are double -hung, one over one units, with single pane glass and aluminum storm units. The sloped roofs are finished with asphalt shingles. The interiors consist of sheet rock walls and ceilings, carpet and vinyl floor finishes, with minimal wood trim. The long east wall contains a one story porch addition with a shed roof. The west wall, or walk -out wall, contains a two-story addition with a flat roof that provides access from the second floor. The site also contains two detached garages with a shallow 4:12 pitch. The additions and the garages all appear to be less than fifty years old (based on a site plan dated 1969). The house does not convey any definitive architectural style. The previous owner has indicated that the structure was remodeled into a house from an agricultural building of some sort. The 1969 survey shows just the rectangular home structure and a barn that has since been removed from the property. 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 structure sits on a parcel that was master planned as part of the Liberty on the Lake development. Prior to platting, two parcels were removed from the plat. The south parcel (Parcel B on Page 3) contains a rambler with a detached garage that was built in the 1970's. The north parcel, (Parcel A on Page 3) the one we are addressing with this demoli- tion review, also contains a house and two detached garages. The ga- rages were built in the 1970's, however, some portions of the house were built earlier. It is difficult to determine the exact age of the home, so we are providing all the information we have. The previous property owner indicated verbally that parts of the home included an old grainary. The only evidence of such may be seen from the basement level where foun- dation walls and wood framing are exposed. The lots have now been sold and are planned to become a part of the Liberty neighborhood. A preliminary plat approval for Liberty West was granted by the City Council in January of 2006. The site contains much more dramatic topography and tree cover than was found throughout most of the Liberty project. Thus, a main concern of the developer and the city, was the preservation of several large heri- tage trees and the incorporation of the rolling topography into the plan. It became apparent early on that the topography, the location of heritage trees and the location of the existing home were not compatible. In order to loop the road from Planting Green to Tending Green (see attached plat map) and avoid several of the large heritage trees, the road and road right-of-way impacted the house site. (See map on page 13) Any revision of the road layout to save the house site would mean the loss of large heritage trees. The existing house site is also extremely close to the low elevation point of the site. This means that storm ponding required for the site would also impact the existing house location. Relocation of the house on the site was also considered. However, the zoning of the area, Cottage Residential, produces smaller houses on smaller lots. This demands custom home designs, especially as it relates to the street front of the home (narrow end toward the street), and the taming of the garage. With this criteria, based on the Liberty neighbor- hood, which was based on old Stillwater neighborhoods, the remodel- ing of the home to a new site, the redesign necessary to properly fit the neighborhood and the topography rendered the reuse of the structure impracticle. That, in concert with the fact that the structure is not archi- tecturally significant in any given style or period, lead us to look only at removal through demolition or relocation off -site.

schedule for reuse of the property on which the building or structure to demolished is located, This narrative provides explanations of the following planning and design exhibits that comprise the Preliminary Plat and General Development Plan for Liberty West, a Planned Unit Development The site consists of two lots, 5 0 acres and 2 8 acres that border Manning Avenue (County Highway 15) on the west and the Liberty on the Lake neighborhood on the north, east and south The charactenstics of the site are quite different from the predevelopment charactenstics of the adjacent land now in the Liberty on the Lake neighborhood The site is heavily wooded with several large Red Oak and Maple trees in excess of 36 inches in diameter, and clusters of Red Pine that reach over 50 feet high The topography vanes from slightly rolling in the south and southeast, and transforms to more severe slopes across the north half of the site It is these charactenstics that require more care and attention in transforming and blending the area into the adjacent neighborhoods How do we take an existing heavily wooded site with severe topography and transform it into a neighborhood on par with the adjacent Liberty on the Lake neighborhood9 PROCESS We started with a detailed study of the existing topography and a tree map of all the trees on the site Three Red Oak hentage trees were identified on the northern half of the site Along with another Oak just off the property to the east, they provide a framework of site design In order to preserve these trees, grading and disturbance of the site beneath their canopies will be minimized to the greatest extent possible Along the south property line several rows of Red Pine create a border to the adjacent properties Along the west edge of the site, the topography and mature vegetation provides a natural buffer to Manning Avenue The existing topography established the location in the northwest corner for on -site ponding to maintain stormwater on the site With these natural guidelines we set about to integrate housing sites and road/trail connections as delicately as possible Numerous on -site visits provided feedback on concepts from the underlying land -owner, City Planning Commission members, Park Board members, the Community Development Director and neighbonng property owners ZONING & GUIDELINES The development is proposed as a Planned Unit Development using the city's Cottage Residential zoning, the same zoning that is applied to adjacent properties to the south and east A Home Owners Association will be formed to manage and maintain properties of common use Design Guidelines will be established that reflect the quality and design requirements of the Liberty on the Lake neighborhood STREET NETWORK Liberty West will tie into the existing street network and street width requirements of the Liberty on the Lake development The sidewalk system from Liberty on the Lake will be continued and enhanced through the Liberty West project The sidewalks from Planting Green and Tending Green will be connected and continued through four alternative routes to the north/south trail proposed along Manning Avenue Grouped mailboxes will continue the "unintentional neighbonng" created in the Liberty on the Lake neighborhood PARK SETTING In contrast to the typical circumstance where a park area is set aside, apart from the rest of the neighborhood, at the proposed future Liberty West, the "park" is one with the neighborhood Having provided large play fields elsewhere within Liberty, and an extensive trail and sidewalk system, including numerous park -greens, Liberty West adds another dimension to the connected amenities of Liberty Preserved specimen oak, pine and maple trees are entwined with water features and boulevard tree -lined streetscapes Sidewalks and trails, linked to all of Liberty, connect to the trail system along Hwy 15, and extend back, all the way to the trail along Long Lake The requisite storm water ponding is enhanced converted to a park feature, by waterfalls and crossed by footpaths and footbridges Sitting areas focus on the shelter of these canopy trees and the interesting views and sounds of the water features SETBACKS The very deep 100' setback from Hwy 15's 220' wide right of way, has been adopted, based on another project, after Liberty was built The goal of this new regulation was to buffer homes from Hwy 15 The Planned Unit Development provision allows creative planning and design to accomplish the goal of such an ordinance, but being able to offset the negative effects of such imposed standards The diagonal orientation of the homes, the extensive tree preservation, the water features, the use of retaining walls to preserve more trees are all the result of the application of this P U D mechanism HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENTS The Washington County Highway Department is proposing to improve Hwy 15 It has or wants a right of way dedication of 110' both sides of the centerline of the existing highway However, even though most of the homes and most of the mature trees are on the east side of the existing highway, their most current proposal is to shove the excavation and construction/destruction and noise, disproportionately, to the east side This is the result on the Hwy Department's insistence on retaining a very wide ditch section on the west side of the right of way, while using a curb/"urban" section on the east side We learned that the Grant side of the right of way, that also has, for some time, in their earlier designs, shown a trail, has now had the trail eliminated This resulted, we were told, in a savings of some $ 1 million At the same meeting, we were told that the replacement of the ditch section, with a curb section (the type anticipated for use on the Stillwater side) would add $300,000 in construction cost, with an added $300,000 for added right of way to handle added storm water run off storage It seems clear that the savings of eliminating the trail on the Grant side will more than offset the cost of the curb section, and any storm storage lands needed Most important, the damage imposed by the highway improvement could be thus, more logically and fairly allocated equally on the Grant and the Stillwater sides of the right of way The result will be the preservation of a mature stand of coniferous overstory and deciduous overstory trees, some 40 years in the making The setting that each driver, each day, using the new, widened highway, will view A woods, potentially preserved, because a ditch, was at last, seen as less valuable than this stand of beautiful, mature trees Trees, that will better buffer the added traffic noise for all of Liberty residents The highway lanes, shown on the proposed preliminary site plan, are thus centered within the nght of way, with the narrowest width of construction disturbance possible We hope that the Planning Commission, Park Board and City Council will support this location, and the use of curb and gutter on both sides of the "linear parkway" (As a reference point, the existing power line poles are shown on the site plans and perspective images) Our plans with the centered highway lanes could leave these poles and power line in place Thus, the cost of moving this power line could be saved, and much of the mature vegetation behind could be preserved • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Liberty West represents: • a three dimensional planning challenge to site designers and home builders; • an unusual approach to site grading and engineering; • an upfront time and money consuming challenge to the developer; • a unique design and development approach to the city. However, in the end, the goal of maintaining the existing character, topography and vegetation will create a unique and beautiful place unequalled in the area. CROIX CAPITAL GROUP, INC.
