Mr.
Griffin stated even though the ordinance states “should” for façade being no
greater than 100’ in length, the Design Review Board needs to have good reasons
why not to mandate 1144.10(a)(4) which states
“Facades
greater than 100 feet in length, measured horizontally, should incorporate wall
plane projections or recesses having a depth of at least 3% of the length of the
façade and extending at least 20% of the length of the façade. No uninterrupted length of any façade
should exceed 100 feet.” Mr. Kraus suggested using awning using
materials to match wall over the doors on the rear of the building. This would help break up the
façade.
Mr.
Cunningham made a motion to approve the building for Honda Motorsports with the following
conditions:
Ø
North

or similar structure using related materials to complement the overall
