Approve the Facade Modification for Stivers Ford.City Planner,Ben Landhauser,explained that
applicants request for approval of the facade modifications to Stiver's Ford is consistent with the Ford
Corporation branding of their Ford,Lincoln,Mercury dealerships.The proposed modification involves
the addition of architectural metal paneling to the north and west facades of the building.The dealership
is within the current Arterial Overlay District and would be subject to the architectural requiremeuts as
such.The Ford Dealership was constructed prior to the establishment of the Arterial Overlay District aud
the building is currently constructed primarily of split-faced block on the north elevation.The west
elevation of the building was constructed using the same split-face block pattern for approximately the
first 90 feet as used on the north elevation.The remaining portion of the west elevation is metal paneling.
The requested change has been triggered by the recent incorporation of the Lincoln and Mercury divisions
of the Ford Corporation into the Waukee location of Stivers.
The applicant is proposing to incorporate the metal paneling into the north facade which would comprise
approximately 29 percent of the elevation to stay within the parameters of the Arterial Overlay District
requirements.The west elevation modification would comprise approximately 15 percent of the entire
facade,As a comparison,the recently completed Shottenkirk Chevrolet Dealership incorporated
architectural metal paneling into 27 percent of their primary elevation,
Paul Offer,Project Manager with Ford Land,reviewed the exterior elevations with the Commission
showing the Ford prototypes for dealerships.He further explained that they are trying to incorporate the
brushed aluminum metal paneling present on their prototype into all of the existing dealerships.
Motion by Commissioner Airhart,seconded by Commissioner Steele,to "Approve the facade
modifications for Stivers Ford."Ayes:Airhart,Steele,Hoifeldt,Dutcher,Hassebroek,Schmidt,and
