Voting No: None, Case #19: Request .for Preliminary Site Plan Review of Town Center 3rd Addition, Northwest Retail Building; Case of Ramdanee LLC Community Development Director Frolik indicated this site plan review is for Town Center 3rd Addition, Northwest Retail Building. The site plan for the retail building generally conforms to the Town Center Development Guidelines. The architecture is similar to the main building. She noted the original site plan application reviewed by the Planmng Commission on July 12 was for the Cobom's Grocery Store and the northeast comer retail building. At that July 12 meeting, it was requested that the site plan approval include the addition of this northwest comer retail building. It was determined that because all of the buildings on Lot .1 share the same drainage, parking, landscaping issues, the site plan for the third building could be forwarded to City Council 'on July 27, provided the building elevations were submitted to staff for review. Additionally, the Council approval will be contingent upon a favorable review of the building elevations on August 5, by the Plmming Commission. Councilmember Strommen suggested the look of the si~as be considered, and that they may want them to include the name of the businesses. She co~rnnented sig-ns that only include the type of the business, rather than the name of the business are rather genetic looking.
