Observations: Gary Gruber of Diamonds Sports Bar and Grill is proposing a two story addition to the existing building that would add about 744 square feet of kitchen space and 744 square feet of office space. The addition will be constructed where the current outdoor bar and grill is located. The proposed addition and existing building complies with the 35% building coverage restriction and all setback requirements. In the B-3 Zoning District, the exterior finish of the building is required to be brick or other masonry type of exterior material. The applicant is proposing to have vinyl siding on the new addition. The existing building has masonry like material as an exterior surface. City Code does allow for alternative materials to be used when approved by the Planning Commission and City Council. The addition will be in the rear of the building and will not be clearly visible from Hwy. 10. In accordance with City Code, a sufficient number of off-street parking spaces are provided. The current use has 316 parking 'spaces. The addition does not require additional parking. On September 5, 2002, the Planning Commission reviewed the proposed addition and found both the site plan and the alternative exterior material acceptable. -185-
