SP-2003-13: Review the site plan for Bank of America at 329 S. Andover Road.

 

Jessica Boettcher from Oculus Design, Ryan Dugdale from Olsson Engineering presented the site plan for the Bank of America.

 

The building will be a masonry structure with rooftop HVAC units. The HVAC units will be shielded from view by the parapet walls.

 

No outside trash enclosure is provided because the Bank of America picks up the trash for security reasons.

 

The existing storm sewer ditch is planned to be carried across the north end of the site in a pipe with an inlet at the north end.

 

The lawn areas are planned to be Bermuda grass with a sprinkler system.

 

The site lighting was discussed. The lighting level needs to be cut off to a maximum of 1 foot-candle at the west property line.   

 

Doug Allison asked about the signage on the back of the building. He preferred to not illuminate the sign in the rear of the bank. The applicant said they will check with the owners on that.

 

Kevin Dreiling made a motion to approve the plan with the removal of the sign on the rear of the building and acceptable lighting plans to Les Mangus. Motion seconded by Larry Crouse. Motion carried 4/0.

Dave McConeghey presented the plan for the addition of a new reader board on the existing sign. The reader board sign is to be internally lit.

 

The existing signage is legal non-conforming due to the height of the existing pole signs. The new reader board does not increase the non-conformance.

 

Doug Allison made a motion to approve the site plan as presented. Charles Malcom seconded the motion. Motion carried 4/0.
