Special Requirements for the Gateway Business District – Section 1320.13 Building Exteriors - Meets Requirements of approved PUD Exterior building treatment is required to be of brick, stone, glass, or any combination thereof. The proposed addition would be constructed primarily of brick and cast stone, with EIFS fascia along the top portion of the building addition. These exterior materials would match the materials used on the existing building. Through the original approval process, Holiday was permitted to use EIFS on the building and the proposal for limited EIFS on the addition is consistent with the approved PUD. Lighting - Meets Requirements Exterior lighting is required to be hooded, concealed, or controlled so as not to be visible from adjoining lots, streets, highways, or residential areas east and south of Round Lake. No new exterior light is proposed as part of the project. Existing decorative light fixtures on the north building wall would be relocated to the north side of the new addition. These existing fixtures meet the lighting requirements included in this section of the Zoning Code. Section 1325 – General Regulations A. Landscaping – Section 1325.05, Subd. 1 - Meets Requirements The property has an existing approved landscape plan on file with the City and an update is not required for the proposed project. Two Autumn Brilliance Serviceberry trees are located immediately north of the proposed addition. These trees will be preserved during construction of the addition. B. Exterior Lighting – Section 1325.05, Subd. 3 - Meets Requirements Any light or combination of light cannot cast light that exceeds a reading of 1.0 foot candle on the travel lanes of adjoining public streets. A foot candle is a measurement used to determine how much light is falling onto a surface a certain distance away from the light source. The photometric plan provided by Holiday indicates that readings along Highway 96 would not exceed 1.0 foot candle. 2.
