Review File: Sunwood Village Site Plan Review: Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code April 3, 2015 Revised May 8, 2015 Page 4 of 8 alternative comparable. The exterior finish is proposed to consist of a combination cement fiber board panels, face brick, metal paneling, burnished CMU, and vertical metal siding. As outlined in the COR Design Framework, one of the main entrances must be oriented toward the street. In reviewing the renderings and building elevations, it appears that there will be at least one (1) entrance from Sunwood Drive. The Planning Commission desired to see the individual, ground floor units facing Sunwood Drive have direct access to the street with enhanced architectural elements as well. The revised plans do not include these direct accesses; however, we are in receipt of a narrative outlining why they were eliminated (safety and maintenance concerns). In lieu of the individual entrances, the narrative outlines added architectural elements to enhance the street presence of the building, including light these units, enlarged windows enlarged windows. These added features do improve the street/building interface and enhance the ground floor units. Lighting Standards. Any lighting used to illuminate an off- street parking area, sign, or structure shall be arranged to deflect light away from an adjoining residential district or public street. Bulbs emitting an excess of 3,000 lumens (150 watts) shall be positioned so that the source of light is not visible from off of the property. The site plan includes shop drawings of all proposed lighting. The applicant is responsible for the installation and 3 years of operations and maintenance of all boulevard lighting adjacent to their project consistent with the COR master lighting plan.
