Industrial Building Upgrades and Site Improvements Approved in Eagle to Comply with Zoning

The Design Review Board reviewed an application for exterior upgrades and site improvements for an existing industrial shop building on East State Street in Eagle, associated with a change of use previously approved by conditional use. The project aims to bring the property into compliance with parking and landscaping requirements. The proposed improvements include re-cladding the building with brick and stucco, removing existing posts and river rock bases, and updating the west elevation for better articulation. Parking was reconfigured, including an accessible stall, and a license agreement with ACHD was secured for parking and landscaping within the right-of-way. Site-specific conditions included the submission of a revised west building elevation, clarification on landscaping percentages, timing of completion for improvements, and an executed license agreement with ACHD. The board also discussed and approved fencing options, with a condition for submission of the final design for review by staff and one board member.

Master Sign Plan for East End Marketplace Building 2 Approved

The Design Review Board reviewed a master sign plan for Building 2 within the East End Marketplace development. The plan includes various signage types and locations, incorporating halo illumination, backlit, and push-through lighting options. The applicant sought to clarify that push-through lighting is an approved option, similar to halo illumination, and aimed to standardize signage across the development. The monument sign, a separate application, was confirmed to be outside the scope of this review. The board considered the proposed signage and conditions, ultimately approving the master sign plan.

New Multi-Tenant Retail Building Approved for East End Marketplace

The Design Review Board reviewed an application for a multi-tenant retail restaurant building, designated as Building 2, within the East End Marketplace. The project involves a approximately 4,100 square foot building located at the southeast corner of the development. The design incorporates specific architectural features, including a unique brick type, stucco, and a vertical wood-toned siding, along with a standing canopy pergola over entry points. Significant site constraints include easements for a pump station, irrigation, a ditch company, and ACHD drain field. A site-specific condition regarding sidewalk connection alignment was addressed, requiring adjustments due to Chick-fil-A's adjacent development. The building is intended for three retail tenants, with no drive-thrus planned. The board discussed and approved the building design, materials, and colors, along with site-specific conditions.
