D. DISCUSSION: • The applicant is requesting design review approval to construct a 6,320-square foot office building at the existing Eagle Sewer District wastewater treatment facility. The applicant's justification letter states the proposed architecture of the office building most closely resembles the Prairie School style which is one of the nine architectural styles within the Eagle Architecture and Site Design book. The building is designed with an asymmetrical entry point, low pitched hipped roofs with gable features, and uses concrete masonry units to mimic natural stone materials. Staff defers comment regarding the building design, materials, and colors to the Design Review Board. • The site plan shows five mechanical units, a transformer, and a generator located near the northeast corner of the building. The landscape plan does not show the location of these units, nor does it show how these units will be screened with landscaping. The applicant's application states that the existing landscaped berm along State Highway 44 will screen the units. Staff defers comment regarding the proposed screening the ground mounted mechanical units to the Design Review Board. • The building elevations show split face and ground CMU, however, the location of where the split face CMU versus the ground CMU is not shown. The applicant should be required to provide revised building elevations showing the location of the split face CMU and ground CMU. The revised building elevation should be reviewed and approved by staff and one member of the Design Review Board prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate. • The building elevations show pre -finished metal siding under the gabled roofs on the south and east building elevations. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-6(B)(1)(k), metal siding is required to be anodized, have concealed fasteners, have a silicon polyester finish or equivalent, and include special design treatments to enhance its appearance. The applicant should be required to provide revised south and east building elevations showing the pre -finished metal siding to be anodized, have concealed fasteners, have a silicon polyester finish or equivalent, and include special design treatments to enhance its appearance.

Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-2A-6(B)(2)(e), metal roofing is required to have concealed fasteners. The applicant should be required to provide revised building elevations showing the metal roofing to have concealed fasteners. The revised building elevations should be reviewed and approved by staff prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate.

Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-3-2, all trash and recycle collection areas are required to be enclosed on at least three sides by a solid wall or fence and a Page 9 of 17 K•\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\Dr\2020\DR-50-20 Eagle Sewer District Office Bldg drf.docx solid gate on a metal frame is required to enclose the fourth side. The applicant should be required to provide a revised sheet A2.01 showing the fourth side (east) of the trash enclosure to have a solid gate on a metal frame.
