Red's — 30 2nd St E -- Bill recused; they are planning to expand into the old Bulldog space
and add an enclosed deck along the alley by the loading dock. Brown stained. Some
exterior lighting. Will use x-mas style lights. Flatter roof looks better. Paint steel beam
green. Match brick? Maybe use masonry piers on the corners and incorporate some
metal. Carol moved to table, John seconded. Tabled 6-0.
Other Discussion:
Walmart — update on revised rear elevation; dropping parapet on rear (9 ft) — still shields
equipment; center canopy in front is a darker color (committee feels it looks better);
changing some front areas from split to smooth block. John moved to approve changes;
Mark seconded. Approved 7-0.
Re -siding permits — the building dept is requiring permits for residing. At what point
would the committee feel that there is a substantial change requiring a review? Just re-
siding w/o a color change is not substantial. We should be a bit tighter in the core
downtown area, particularly with historic buildings.
