LaRue Bevington (continued): This is the third time Mr. Bevington has been before this committee. Morgan Mesner made a recommedation to the committee that if they like what they see and it meets the ordinance they should vote to approve. If they don't like what has been presented they should vote to deny the project and send it onto council with a written recommedation why the project was denied and let council decide. Mr. Bevington does have approval for his sign. Before a vote was taken Morgan Mesner advised the Committee that it had been requested by other council members that council liasions to committees should not vote. He will abstain from voting at any more meetings until council brings this up for motion and decides what to do. Moved by Franz Witte and seconded by Phil Hull to deny the application as presented and send to Council for decision. The landscape criteria has not been met. ALL AYE: MOTION CARRIED. Phil Hull, of The Land Group, will prepare a written memo to council. Mr. Bevington will be scheduled for the council meeting on July 25, 1995. James Bruce (continued): Joy Schwitzer, agent for the Bruce's property, represented Mr. Bruce at the meeting. Issues brought up for discussion were ingress & egress, paving, automatic sprinkler system and landscaping. Morgan stated that ingress and egress was not a part of this committee. The city has two points of ordinance for ingress & egress on commercial establishments: (1) will ingress & egress forward and (2) safe vision when entering highway. Anything beyond that is ITD's requirements and is up to them. Joy said that the alley was vacated in 1989 or 1990 and cannot be used for public access. Can be used for private access only be property owners. Morgan said idea has been proposed by the City clerk that if the Bruce's prepare the property for paving the city would black top at their expense and share the parking. Joy indicated that Mr. Bruce would like this idea presented to council. Morgan will present to council. Joy said if we do not go with City Hall idea to pave the parking Mr. Bruce would like to gravel & roll the parking area. Ordinance requires dust-free surface. 3/4 road mix is not dust free and committee said Mr. Bruce was told at the last meeting this was not acceptable and really needed to be paved. Joy said she was told by City Clerk that road mix was acceptable. They have no problem with sign being exterior lite and sign has been inverted so that Jensen Realty and Priest Hat Company sign are not next to each other. Sod has already been put in and Mr. Bruce does not want to go to the expense of putting in an automatic sprinkler system. City ordinance reads that all persons occupying commercial property shall design and develop it with a pressurized irrigation system in accordance with Eagle Design Ordinance. Joy asked if an extension could be requested in putting in a sprinkler system. This would have to be a council decision. Moved by Mike Vance and seconded by Franz Witte to deny the application and send to Council for decision. The plan that was submitted does not conform with City ordinances. ALL AYE: MOTION CARRIED. Mr. Bruce is scheduled for Design Review at the July 11, 1995 meeting. Mike Vance will attend the meeting. Discussion - Barry Peters: Has an option to purchase property on the S/E corner of Eagle Road & State Street and would like to build a Victorian style office building. He asked the committee for their input if he went in that direction. Would not like to see Victorian but turn of the century as it applied to the Boise Valley. Phil Hull and Mike Vance will provide guidelines and pictures to Mr. Peters. The meeting adjourned at 3:25 p.m. Respectfully submitted: £~/j/~L Linda Kioukis, Admin.
