Approve the Waukee High School Football Concession Stand.Eric Rose,Director of Operations for the Waukee School District,presented the plan.He stated that the concession stand would be approximately 35'x 70',with a possible future expansion.The school will leave the current concession stand in place for at least one year after completion ofthe new concession stand,with no specific future plans for the old stand.Commissioner Hoifeldt asked about the location ofHV AC units;Mr.Rose stated that there would be none.Mr.Rose also explained that the future expansion would most likely include locker rooms,but that those locker rooms may instead be added in with a planned expansion of Waukee Middle School.He could give no specific timeframe for the possible concession stand expansion,but stated that it most likely would not happen for at least 3 years,if at all.Mr.Rose stated that if the concession stand expansion did not occur,the rear wall would be completely bricked at that point.Mark Arentsen stated that the future expansion was shown as being built over an existing water line,and that the City would require the line to be relocated prior to construction of the expansion.The Commission discussed the proposed block wall at the rear of the structure;all agreed that a block wall was not a desirable material,despite its possible "temporary"nature.The Commission also agreed that accent colors of brick to mirror that used on the high school building would add visual breaks along the other exterior elevations.Commissioner Hoifeldt expressed his disappointment that the school-did not provide color elevations or a materials board.Chairman Steele agreed that he would like to see color elevations, especially because the middle school concession stand had not been built according to the approved color scheme.Mr.Arentsen stated that City Council would also need to see color elevations and a materials board.Commissioner Wilson said that he would like to see the rear wall done entirely in brick,not block, especially as there was no certainty of a future expansion and no timeframe for such an expansion. Commissioners Mook and Schmidt agreed.Commissioner Krantz asked about exterior lighting;Mr.Rose stated that there was none planned,as they would rely on the existing lighting at Centeunial Park.Mr. Rose also stated that there would be no dumpster,just rolling receptacles,and therefore no dumpster 132 enclosure,Motion by Commissioner KJantz,seconded by Commissioner Korpanty,to "Approve the Waukee High School Football Concession Stand,provided the rear wall is completely covered in brick, and that brick bands in an accent color be added to mirror the look of the existing high school building."i Ayes:Hoifeldt,Korpanty,Krantz,Mook,Schmidt,Wilson,Steele.Nays:None.Motion carried,I Approve the Site Plan for Hot Spring Spas.Brad Cooper of Cooper Crawford &Associates presented the site plan,along with Matt Keller of Vantage Point Architects.Also in attendance were Steve Fisher and Dustin Smith,representing the developer.Mr.Cooper stated that there were no significant changes to the site plan other than added landscaping.He also agreed to install a 10'bike path along Alice's Road instead of the proposed 4'sidewalk.Mr.Keller explained some changes that had been made to the exterior of the building,such as increasing the height by I'and the depth by 16"of the glass block piers on the east elevation.Along the north elevation,the precast paneling had been extended,a horizontal accent color of v-ribbed paneling was added along the top portion ofthe elevation,and the wall aronnd the garage door was bumped out to 8".Chairman Steele stated his desire to see more hard surface material used along the north elevation,especially due to the excessive length ofthe wall.Commissioner Hoifeldt asked for clarification as to whether the City could make changes to the PD zoning for this lot. Chad Weaver answered in the affirmative;MJ.Cooper disagreed that changes should be made at all.Mr. Weaver stated that he was less concerned with the Hot Spring Spas building as he was with what could potential be constructed on Lot I of Westgate Business Park Plat 3.Mark Arentsen stated that,even if the Commission approved the Hot Spring Spas site,the City Council may still reject it,especially as it does not meet the requirements for the Arterial Corridor Overlay District.Mr.Keller argued that the developer was happy with the elevations,and that the design met the requirements of the current PD.Commissioner Schmidt stated that the Commission needed to address any possible changes to the PD for Westgate Business Park Plat 3 prior to site plan approval.Motion by Commissioner Schmidt,seconded by 1 Commissioner Mook,to "Postpone the Approval of the Site Plan for Hot Spring Spas nntil discussion and J passage ofthe Preliminary and Final Plats for Westgate Business Park Plat 3."Ayes:Hoifeldt,Korpanty, Krantz,Mook,Schmidt,Wilson,Steele.Nays:None.Motion carried.

Commissioner Hoifeldt explained that part of the reason for the east parapet wall was to wrap the elements of the north elevation around the building for continuity and to prevent the look of a "false front."Mr.Burmeister stated that the proposed revision of the east parapet wall may not align with the north elevations and therefore might not "look good."Commissioner Schmidt stated that the Commission must make a formal recommendation to the Council regarding the elevation changes;Connnissioner Mook replied that he would prefer a directive from the Council prior to making any official Commission recommendation.Council Representative Mertz asked for accurate elevation drawings of the current and proposed north and east elevations,as well as information on the location of HVAC units for Warrior Lanes and their height above the roof deck.Chairman Steele asked that copies of those elevation drawings be provided to the Commission,as well.Council Representative Mertz suggested a special on- site meeting of the Commission to look at the Warrior Plaza elevations.The Commission agreed to meet on Tuesday,May 31 at 6:00 p.m.at Warrior Plaza to review the site.
