Their request includes 1.75 parking spaces p •r unit instead of the required two parking spaec_s per unit. Since sixty percent of the units are one-bedroom, they feel the reduction is justified. They also requested a reduction in the masonry requirement of eighty percent (80`?0) to an ;avenge of forty- seven percent (47%). Mr. Guest, Group Architects, Inc., presented elevations of the design of the btEildings. The reason for requesting a masonry reduction is that cantilever elevations have been utilized within the design which will not support brick. Chimneys cannot be con::trueted of brick because regulations will not allow brief: to be stacked thirty-five to forty feet high. Flat surface areas from the foundation to the roof are brick. PAGE FOUR -- PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MEETING -- AUGUST 6, 138; l_£}8�Ct40 Chairman Lynch asked what would be used where there is no brick. He also asked if the units would be condos or for rent. Mr. James Wade, Duke--Dallas Company, stated that hardboard prifned masonite Mould be used. fie stated that the units would be rental. units. Chairman Lynch (asked if there were any additional. proponents or opponents. There were none. Chairman Lynch noted that the zoning ordinance rec;uires that no more than fifty percent of the Snits be one bedrooms. An information booklet the Commission received, which becomes pert of the site plan, states there will be sixty-six percent one bedrooms. Mr. Rod Tyler clarified that thirty percent efficiencies are also allowed and when none are requested, up to eighty= percent one bedrooms are allowed. Chairman Lvnch commented that he does not believe that the masonry requirement is related to maintenance. Other Ine tubers of the C'ommis.ion felt that the current masonry requirement is preferred and should not be varied from. Mr. Barry Knight discussed with the architects to see if anything could be done to upgrade the masonry percentage and keep the design. fie stated that they could add stucco to the recessed and balcony areas and have a three material facade which would increase the masonry percentage to a minimum of sixty-five percent.. Chairman Lynch asked staff if stucco is classified as masonry. M.r. names Knight stated that stucco has been determined to be masonry veneer. k1r. Deithlof.f rnade a motion to recommend approval of the Site Ilan for "P--85--36 subject to the minimum masonry being an overall total of sixty-five percent with brick being forty eight percent as drawn on the elevations, which become: part of the site plan; with no limitations on any one elevation; and stucco added to increase masonry percentage. The motion died for lack of a second. The Commission dicussed in length the desired percentages of masonry per building, per elevation and overall total. Mr. Tyson stated his opposition to the use of stucco. Chairman Lynch questioned the difference it made when, the wood is located on a building; whether it's all on one elevation or divided among all the elevations. Mr. Guest .requested to be allowed a minimum of :sixty percent of masonry per building with an overall sixty-five percent ;per project. He noted that most of the elevations averaged in the seventy plus percentage range. Mr. Deitloff made: a motion to recommend approval of Site Plan #P--85-36 with 1.75 parking spaces per unit; seventy-two percent masonry overall; sixty--five percent masonry on any one elevation; and subbject to the elevations as presented.
