SP-2005-18: Review the Signage Plan for the Salon Blu located in the Weatherstone Place at 742 N. Andover Road.

Brian Kirkland of Miracle Signs located at 3611 N. Broadway, Wichita presented the plan. He said this will be a reverse channel letter, all aluminum, mounted to the building with remote mount transformers located behind the wall and in the ceiling. During the day the letters will look light blue on the face, black on the depth with a silver outline that mounts to the building. At night there will be a blue halo around the letters and the lettering will look dark.

 

Larry Crouse made a motion to accept the sign plan as presented. David Martine seconded the motion.

 

Doug Allison asked if the distance the sign would stand off the building would clear the efis projections of the wall. Brian Kirkland said yes it would and that the silver background will mount to the efis and makes an even plane. There will be ½” between the inside depth and the lighter tan border but it will all mount flush.

 

Motion carried 4/0.

SP-2005-20: Review the Final Site Plan for BCC Building Remodeling & Parking Addition located at 715 E. 13th St.  Vince Haines from Prigmore Krievins Haines & Limon Architects and Mike Calvert Dean of Butler College of Andover presented the plan.

 

Vince Haines submitted copies of the revised site plan and the lighting plan to the Committee. He said the college is proceeding with an expansion of the 5000 building. This site plan focuses on an entry portion on the south part of the south building and additional parking spaces for the expansion. There will also be a paved access road to the west where there is currently gravel.

 

Doug Allison said north is pointing the wrong direction on the plan.

 

Doug Allison asked what work is being done to the building. Vince Haines said it is all interior finish.

 

David Martine asked if there are 53 parking spaces being added along the west side. Vince said that is correct.

 

David Martine asked how big the curb cut will be. Vince said there is no curb cut just a culvert.

 

Doug Allison asked if the 38 parking spaces north of the building are existing. Vince said that is correct.

 

Doug Allison asked if the plantings on the west side of the building are new. Vince said the ones on the west, east and south sides are new.

 

Larry Crouse said Viburnum plants will not survive along the west wall due to the heat. There was general discussion about planting options considering the 500’ run of the building.

 

Larry Crouse suggested planting trees on the west side of the building for shade.

 

David Martine asked if the new parking on the west side is curbed. Vince said it is not.

 

Les Mangus asked if bumper blocks would be used. Vince said that is correct.

 

Doug Allison stated the lighting plan is not adequate in the southeast part of the lot. Les Mangus said 1/3 of the new parking area is not properly lighted.

 

Les Mangus said he talked to the electrical engineer who did not include existing lighting in his calculations.

 

David Martine asked for trees to be planted on the west side of the new driveway. He said parking lot screening is not required, but he thinks trees would break up the long run of the building. Les reminded the Committee of the 8’ chain link fence on the west property line. Doug Allison suggested clumping trees along the fence line.

 

Doug Allison asked if there is an existing irrigation system or if there would be a new one. Mike Calvert said everything is hand watered by college students.

 

Larry Crouse suggested removing 2 parking spaces and adding a planter. He asked to see more details on the plans and more landscaping added to make the property look more like a destination.

 

Les Mangus said the approval of this site plan is conditional upon the Board of Zoning Appeals approval on July 19th of the variance case to reduce required number of parking spaces.

 

Larry Crouse made a motion to approve the site plan with the condition of approval by the Board of Zoning Appeals  for the variance case, submission at the next Site Plan Review Committee of a revised lighting plan, revised landscape plan, and to authorize building permits to be issued on the interior remodeling only and occupancy withheld until a site plan is approved. David Martine seconded the motion. Motion carried 4/0.

 

Mike Calvert said the proposed occupancy date is August 22, 2005.
