CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING:
Request for a Major Redevelopment Permit to develop an

Subarea 4 of the Village Redevelopment Area.
Chris Salomone, Community Redevelopment Manager, gave the
presentation on this item as contained in the staff report
using a transparency to show the site and wall charts to
indicate the site plan and elevation. He stated staff
would rather wait for a more suitable use for this area as
indicated in the Design Manual.
Chairman McCoy opened the continued public hearing at 5:lO
p.m., and issued the invitation to speak.
Gilbert Miranda, 3870 Valley Street, the applicant,
addressed the Board, stating the area was auto-oriented,
with the shops nearby all being related to the auto
industry. He stated he wanted to build a beautiful shop
that would not create a noise problem, since he planned
to be open only in daylight hours. He asked what else
could be built in that area if the City denied his request
In answer to query regarding whether he had checked with
the City as to whether an auto body shop could be built
there, he said the City did not give him an answer. If he
had been told he could not build an auto body shop there,
stated he would not have purchased the land.
Since no one else wished to speak on this item, the
public hearing was closed at 5:16 p.m.
Member Marcus stated her concern was still the lack of
parking and Member Holmes concurred with that. He added
there would be a noise factor with such a shop. Member
Schlehuber stated this was the wrong place for an auto
body shop.

2. RP 86-2 VILLAGE CORNER (GRANT)
Request for a Minor Redevelopment Permit to remodel
existing store buildings at 2978-2998 State Street and
540-548 Elm Avenue.
Chris Salomone gave the presentation as contained in the
staff report, using a transparency to show the site, and
slides to show the property. He indicated the roof will
be capped, but kept the same, and the rear of the building
will be improved, including the parking area. Mr. Salomonc
used wall charts of a rendering of the proposed remodeling
and a color chart. He stated the rear elevation would be
the same as shown for the front.
Mr. Salomone stated staff would limit the use to retail-ty]
shops and not a bone fide restaurant.
In answer to query regarding newspaper stands, staff statec
the City hasb no jurisdiction over such newspaper stands.
John Grant, the applicant, spoke to the Board, stating he
was not aware until today the preference of staff to not
consider a cafe/deli for a portion of the space. He
commented he was not expanding the square footage of the
building, but just updating the facility. He asked not to
be restricted in the selection of tenants.
In discussion, the Board agreed they could re-consider
an application for a tenant at the time it was submitted.
Member Holmes inquired of Mr. Grant whether he would be
willing to contribute to a parking district, if and when
one were established. Mr. Grant stated he could not make
a definite commitment at this time, but he certainly
leaned in that direction for solving the parking problem
in the downtown area.
Design Review Board adopted the following Resolution:
RESOLUTION NO. 066, FOR A MINOR REDEVELOPMENT PERMIT TO
REMODEL EXISTING STORE BUILDINGS AT 1978-1998 STATE STREET
AND 540-548 ELM AVENUE.
3. RP 84-9 - BESAW Design revision to office building
on southeast corner of Jefferson Street and Grand Avenue.
Chris Salomone stated this was an information item and
the applicant had come up with this idea for changing the
siding on the building. Using a wall chart, Mr. Salomone
indicated the horizontal siding to be used, except for
the windows, and indicated the applicant thought it would
help the appearance to create vertical panels between the
windows, stucco them and paint them cream to create a
less massive feeling. They just want the Board's opinion.
