This project also requests that the Historic Landmark Commission consider approving, for specific homes, building heights in excess of the twenty-three (23) foot maximum building height regulation of the base zoning district. The subject property is zoned SR-1A (Special Development Pattern Residential District).
Council District: 3
Council Member: Eric Jergensen
Decision: The Historic Landmark Commission adopted a motion to accept the staff recommendation to approve the proposed Capitol View Planned Development subject to the following conditions:
1. Proposed building heights shall confirm to the plans for each unit, with the exception that the maximum height of each structure shall be no more than 27’ 4”, the block face average along West Capitol Street.
2. The unit style of each plan shall conform to the attached preliminary development site plan, with the exception of lot 4, which shall include a D2 unit.
3. Request that the applicant return to the Historic Landmark Commission with final building materials and finish materials.
Furthermore, the Historic Landmark Commission strongly recommends that the developer further increase the variety of structures 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, to reduce the mass, perhaps by lowering the roof height of the structures below the allowed 27’ 4” height, or to by some other means, to further reduce the mass of the structure to relieve the burden on West Capitol Street.
