meeting.
ITEM 3. PROJECT REVIEW
Greyhound Depot Modification #Z-99102 - (Killebrew)
1205 East Main Street
- A request to Modify an approved Minor Site Plan to allow the
removal of the canopy structure.
Chuck Hall joined the DRB. In the absence of Assistant Planner Joni Killebrew, Planning
Director Andrew Epple presented the proposed modification, which is due to the applicant's
conclusion the buses wouldn't have space to turn around. He stated there was space for two
buses between the posts of the canopy, however, winter conditions could create difficulties for
two buses. Discussion followed on adding a smaller canopy extending from the building,
however, consensus was it wouldn't be possible due to the architecture of the structure.
Mr. Pohl suggested adding lighting to the parking area, which Planning Director Epple noted
could be a condition which would be approved by the Planning Office. Mr. Hall concurred that
lighting could be added, however the lighting along the eaves seemed to be adequate.
Mr. Sorenson reviewed the discussion during a previous DRB discussion on landscaping. Mr.
Hall noted Mr. Hoyt, one of the applicants, has the original landscape plans, which were drawn by
Cashman Nursery. Planning Director Epple noted the submittal of a landscape plan is a condition
of approval and isn't due until the final site plan is submitted, and reviewed the condition relating
to landscaping. He distributed a landscape plan that has been faxed to the office.
Design Review Board Minutes-September 14,1999 I
Planning Director Epple reviewed the appeal of the original DRC/DRB decision by the owner of
the Ranch House Motel. He assured the owner of the motel that the Greyhound Company will
install a solid fence for screening between them and the motel to provide the headlight screening
he requested. Discussion followed on the hours of business, with the Board and Mr. Hall in
agreement that the station has to be open when the buses arrive. He stated is appropriate due to
the zoning, the close proximity of the interchange with I-90, and the traffic volume on Main
Street.
Mr. Hall explained the use of the interior space, noting there will be 16 to 20 seats in the lobby.
He indicated the remodeling that will be done, including the installation of one new door. He
noted it is an ideal site for a bus terminal, with motels and convenience stores nearby.
Chairperson McCrone summarized that lighting and landscape plans will be submitted for review
and approval of the Planning Office. Discussion followed on the addition of a covering over the
doorway to provide protection from the weather over the entryway. The Board concurred to
recommend the addition of a canopy or other covering over the entryway.
