D. DISCUSSION:
• The applicant is proposing to construct a 3,400-square foot bank facility with two (2)drive-up
service lanes and one (1)ATM lane. The applicant's justification letter indicates that the
architectural style of the building is to be "Prairie School"design as described within the EASD
Book. The building design is composed of rectangular forms, with an asymmetrical entry and
gabled roof. The facades will be clad in primarily earth toned stucco and stone with darker stucco
accents bands and a heavy fascia. All of which help define the horizontal lines of the Prairie
School style. The footprint of the building will cover approximately eleven percent(11%)of the
site. Pursuant to Eagle City Code,the minimum lot coverage in the CEDA overlay district is
twenty percent(20%). Staff defers comment regarding the minimum lot coverage to the Design
Review Board.
• A small plaza area is proposed to be located at the entrance to the building. This plaza area is
approximately forty percent(40%)of the buildings ground level, street facing façade. Pursuant to
Eagle City Code,buildings within the CEDA overlay district are to be designed so that a least
seventy percent(70%)of the buildings ground level, street facing façade is constructed to abut and
be oriented to a public sidewalk or plaza. The applicant should be required to provide a revised
site and landscape plan showing a plaza area abutting a minimum of seventy percent(70%)of the
buildings, street facing façade. The revised site and landscape plans should be reviewed and
approved by staff and two members of the Design Review Board prior to the issuance of a zoning
certificate.
• The landscape plan, date stamped by the City on May 10, 2012, shows two(2)existing street trees
located between the eight foot(8')meandering sidewalk and back of curb adjacent to East State
Street. Pursuant to Eagle City Code, street trees are required to be planted every thirty five(35)
linear feet of street frontage. The applicant should be required to provide a revised landscape plan
showing two (2)additional street trees to be planted between the two(2) existing trees located
south of the eight foot(8')meandering sidewalk adjacent to East State Street. The revised
landscape plan should be reviewed and approved by staff and two members of the Design Review
Board prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate.
• Currently there is a five foot(5')wide attached sidewalk located adjacent to the north/south
ingress/egress easement between the meandering sidewalk along East State Street and the
driveway entrance to this site. There is no sidewalk between the driveway entrance to this site and
the north property line. The landscape plan, date stamped by the City on May 10, 2012, shows the
existing sidewalk to be removed between the meandering sidewalk along East State Street and the
driveway entrance to this site. The applicant should be required to provide a revised site and
landscape plan showing a five foot(5')wide sidewalk to be constructed adjacent to the north/south
ingress/egress easement extending from the meandering sidewalk along East State Street to the
driveway located on the property to the north of this site. The revised site and landscape plans
should be reviewed and approved by staff and two members of the Design Review Board prior to
the issuance of a zoning certificate.
• Pursuant to past action by the Board and Council, any building with a proposed drive-up service is
to be designed in such a way as to compliment the overall character of the development and design
styles exceeding the standard utilitarian look of a building with a drive-up. A minimum forty-eight
inch (48")high berm, decorative block wall, cultured stone, decorative rock, or similarly designed
concrete wall, landscaping, or combination thereof within the buffer area adjacent to the drive-up
service lane to reduce the impact of the vehicles utilizing the drive-up service lane(i.e.: vehicle
headlights and vehicle cueing) is required. The landscape plan, date stamped by the City on May
10, 2012, shows landscaping to be located near the southeast corner of the site, extending along
the east side of the drive-up service lane to the north, and terminating south of the existing trash
Page 7 of 13
K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\Dr\2012\DR-33-12 ID Central Credit Union drfdoc
enclosure located on the property to the north. The plan also shows landscaping on the western
portion of the site, in front of the five(5)parking spaces located north of the driveway to this site.
Staff defers comment regarding the proposed screening of the drive-up service lane to the Design
Review Board.
• Staff defers comment regarding building design and colors to the Design Review Board.

City Code; however, in an attempt to be more energy conscientious, the Board recommends that LED
lighting be approved. The applicant is proposing to use light fixtures throughout the site and on the
building that could be either high pressure sodium (HPS) or LED; the only difference would be the
type of luminarie used within the fixtures. The Corrected Color Temperature(CCT)of a high pressure
sodium light fixture is 2100 Kelvin degrees; the applicant is required to use 3000 Kelvin degrees. The
3000 Kelvin degrees more closely matches the warmer toned light source of a standard HPS lamp.
The project as designed using LED lights could provide a forty two percent (42%) reduction
(approximately) in energy usage. It is with these improvements that the Board recommends approval
of this project as proposed and with the modifications noted herein.
4. Will, in fact, constitute a permitted use as established in Eagle City Code Title 8, Chapter 2, Section 3,
for the CBD(central business district)zoning district.
