Planning and Zoning Commissioners Ron Rotthaus, David Dudziak, Larry Knox, David Phelps, Don Davis and Chairman Jeff Byerly. Architectural Review Commissioners Jeff Ground, Christina Keilson, Kevin Procaccino, Curtis Young, Gerald Ward, Jim Makens and Chairman Alan Greer were present.

Planning and Zoning Commissioner David Wheelwright was absent. 2. PRESENTATION AND DISCUSSION 2a Discussion of commercial development and design standards and possible amendments to Chapter 6-Building Design in the Land Development Code Community Development Director Ron Ruthven presented the proposed revisions to Chapter 6-Building Design in the Land Development Code, which are based on the discussion received during the April 6, 2011 joint worksession with the City Council, Planning and Zoning Commission and the Architectural Review Commission. The proposed revisions include: (1) vertical departure variables were restored to the design score but have been capped at a maximum of ten points; (2) LEED standards have been removed; (3) Graphics have been added to illustrate what each design standard means. These are temporary graphics pending the creation of more enhanced graphics, which would be added to the proposed ordinance revisions prior to consideration by the City Council; (4) the exterior building materials have been clarified to explain Concrete Masonry Unit (CMU) and also encourage mixing of masonry materials. This matches color restrictions in other area city ordinances; (5) the variance procedures have been amended to include specific City of Colleyville Page 1 Printed on 10/27/2011 Joint City Council, Planning 8~ Minutes September 14, 2011 Zoning Commission and ~rr_hifPr_tural Review CommissiOn requirements, with review by the Architectural Review Commission as the variance body, with an appeal option to the City Council. Mr. Ruthven presented a detailed explanation of the design scoring system, examples of buildings with various design scores and how the scoring system relates to commercial buildings constructed in the City since the original adoption of the building design standards in 1996. Discussion ensued regarding what constitutes masonry materials, average masonry standard, percentage of masonry requirements and non-masonry accents, definition of accents, and minimum color standards. Community Development Director Ruthven spoke regarding the variance process. The City Council, Planning and Zoning Commission and Architectural Review Commission members agreed on the following language for Section 6.5A of the Land Development Code: The primary wall surfaces should be 100% masonry; however, up to 15% of the total surface area of the exterior building can be other materials. Discussion continued regarding design standards related to corporate logos and colors. It was determined that additional criteria regarding a color palette would be included in the proposed Commercial Design Standards. It was determined the minimum design standard would require a commercial structure to meet three out of the five criteria, which includes a facade articulation variable, a vertical departure variable; a shade coverage variable; a horizontal and diagonal roof plane variable and a fenestration variable. The proposed Commercial Design Standards will be placed on a future City Council agenda for consideration. Economic Development Director Marty Wieder provided information regarding multiple design districts and placemaking. 3.
