Approval of Minutes: Minutes of May 9, 2006 meeting were approved
Hear the Public: None
Old Business:
McKenzie River Pizza (2230 Hwy 93 S) submitted a plan for a freestanding sign for its
new location. At the last meeting, the project was turned down based on unanswered
questions, specifically its tie-in to the building and a desire for monument style signs in this
area (nobody was present to represent the applicant). Discussion related to the
surrounding properties throughout the entrance corridor and the visibility of the sign.
Landscaping was also discussed. The sign (including the color scheme) is the same used
throughout the state. The committee suggested that the height of the sign be reduced
while maintaining visibility at the intersection and over the parked cars. Corey moved to
approve with the above suggestion. John seconded. Approved 5-0.
New Business:
Third Avenue East Mini -Storage (1601 3rd Ave E) is beginning phase 3 of their third
and final phase. The earlier phases followed their CUP approval and site review approval.
Photos of the existing buildings were shown, and the new buildings will match. Bill
moved to approve, Mark seconded. Approved 5-0.
Kidsports (Champion Way/Kidsports complex) is planning a new concession building,
which follows their master plan for the complex and matches other concession stands on
the property. They will use textured block with a shingled roof, with forest green trim to
match the existing dugouts, etc for the softball fields. Mark moved to approve, John
seconded. Approved 5-0.
625 Sunset Blvd is proposing a primarily interior remodel of an existing office building.
There is no change of use. The exterior will include a repaired handicap ramp and
repainted trim. Photos and color samples were shown. Bill moved to approve, John
seconded. Approved 5-0.
Fullerton Architects (400 I't Ave E) is moving from their present location to an existing
commercial building. They plan to remodel the offices and change the windows on the
exterior of the building. John moved to approve, Bill seconded. Motion passed 5-0.
Starbucks (Hwy 93 N/Spring Prairie PUD) is proposing a new building to the north of
the new Wells Fargo Building. Their landscaping looked good. The committee would
prefer a more "local" style and color. Corey moved to approve, Mark seconded.
Approved 5-0.
Other Discussion:
Administrative Matters: The Legacy Restaurant will unfortunately be closing their
doors on June 2, so we will need to come up with a new meeting location. In the short
term, we will meet at Red's in the KM Building.
