<br />____________________________________________________________________________________ <br />Page 6 of 17 <br /> <br />B. Exterior Materials – Flexibility Requested <br />At least seventy-five (75) percent of the exterior building materials should be made of brick <br />masonry, tile masonry, natural stone or its synthetic equivalent, decorative concrete plank, <br />transparent glass or any combination thereof. Trim and other accent or decorative features may <br />be metal, wood, split faced block, EIFS, or stucco. Undesirable materials include simulated brick, <br />vinyl or aluminum siding, sheet or corrugated metal siding, plain concrete blocks or panels, <br />brightly colored metal roofing or canopies, pre-cast tilt-up walls, and mirrored or reflective glass. <br />The Applicant is proposing to construct the two buildings of similar materials and design features <br />which is intended to harmonize the development and maintain the City’s focus on high quality and <br />timeless materials. <br /> <br />The proposed building elevations consist of brick masonry, cedar fiber cement panels and <br />aluminum composite panels with metal coping. The Aldi building design has met the 75% <br />threshold with desired materials on all four elevations. The Planning Commission should make a <br />determination as to whether or not the extent of the aluminum composite panel is acceptable in <br />the building design. On the anchor building for Aldi, the use of aluminum panels ranges from <br />23% of the east elevation to 14% on the south elevation as a focal design element around the <br />Aldi signage on the building facades. The non-primary facades consists of primarily masonry <br />and cement panels of the total façade area. <br /> <br />The transparency requirements for businesses within the B-3 District have been considered in the <br />development and the proposal will use a combination of clear and opaque windows in the <br />building design. Section 1325.05, Subd. 8, F. states that fifty percent (50%) of all first level <br />building façades that front a public street shall be comprised of transparent windows or doors in <br />order to allow views of interior uses and activities. The Applicant is seeking flexibility to this <br />standard on the south elevation with 11% of the façade being clear glazing. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />With regards to the outparcel multi-tenant building design, the City Code requires that façade <br />treatment shall be carried around all side. Architectural elements such as, but not limited to, <br />windows, shutters, awnings, doors, masonry exterior veneers, cornice detailing, window casings,
