City of Boulder Planning Board Meeting 6-25-2020
B
C
Call
the
meeting
to
order
if
we're
gonna
start
the
tape
and
then
I'll
turn
it
over
to
Eugene.
So
I'm
gonna
call
to
me
to
call
the
the
planning
board
meeting
for
the
city
of
Boulder
Planning
Board
for
June
25th
2020
to
order
the
time
is
6:05
p.m.
and
because
this
is
a
zoom
meeting
and
we
have
relatively
new
protocols.
I'm
gonna
turn
over
to
gene
data
who's,
our
moderator
for
tonight
and
gene.
Take
it
away
great.
B
Thank
you
Harmon,
as
you
mentioned,
I'm
gene
Watson
at
the
planning
department
and
serving
as
the
technical
host
for
the
meeting
tonight,
and
we
thank
everyone
for
being
here
and
also
for
your
grace
and
patience
as
I'm
learning
about
all
of
the
zoom
technicalities
and
we
work
through
all
of
the
nuances
of
being
in
an
online
environment.
We
have
a
few
rules
in
place
to
balance,
to
find
a
balance
between
transparency
with
community
members
and
security
that
minute
minimizes
disruptions
and
to
make
sure
that
we
have
a
fair
and
respectful
meeting.
A
Okay,
are
you
seeing
these
slides
now?
Yes,
okay,
as
Jesus
said
we're
pleased
to
have
you
join
us.
We
do
need
to
strike
a
meaningful
balance
between
transparency
and
online
security,
so
these
rules
have
been
in
place
since
we
began
our
virtual
platform.
The
meeting
has
been
called
to
conduct
business
or
the
city
of
Boulder.
Oops.
Excuse
me
activities
that
disrupt
delay
or
otherwise
interfere
with
the
meeting
are
prohibited.
A
time
for
speaking
or
asking
questions
might
be
limited.
No
person
shall
speak,
except
when
recognized
by
the
person
presiding,
which
might
be
gene
or
Harmon.
A
In
this
case,
nope
person,
chef
speaking
longer
than
the
time
allotted
each
person,
shall
register
to
speak
at
the
meeting
using
that
person's
real
name,
which
means
that
we
don't
like
to
have
any
pseudonym.
So
we
might
ask
if
you've
logged
on
as
Tom's
iPad
or
any
other
pseudonym
that
you
have
sometimes,
when
you
log
on
assume
you
have
different
names.
A
We
might
ask
you
to
actually
type
in
your
real
name,
because
we
do
need
that
for
the
record
and
no
video
will
be
permitted,
except
for
city
officials,
employees
and
invited
speakers
such
as
applicants,
all
others
will
participate
by
voice.
Only
the
person
presiding
at
the
meeting
shall
enforce
these
rules
by
muting.
A
Anyone
who
violates
these
rules
if
the
chat
function
is
enabled
it
will
be
used
for
individuals
to
communicate
to
the
host,
which
would
be
Jean
in
this
case,
it
should
be
used
for
technical
online
platform
related
questions
only
not
for
the
public
hearing
for
any
questions
related
to
the
public
hearing,
because
those
are
not
recorded
and
the
board
is
not
going
to
be
looking
at
chat.
That's
not
what
they're
going
to
do.
A
They're
going
to
be
focused
on
the
discussion
if
an
attendee
attempts
to
use
chat
for
any
reason
other
than
seeking
assistance
from
the
host,
the
city
reserves
the
right
to
disable
that
individuals
access
to
chat.
Only
the
host
and
individuals
designated
by
the
host
will
be
permitted
to
share
their
screen
during
this
meeting,
and
that's
that.
B
Great
Thank
You
Cindy
when
we
get
to
the
public
hearing
for
folks.
You
are
muted
at
the
moment,
but
when
we
get
to
the
public
hearing,
as
you
are
recognized
for
the
oken
of
public
comment,
I
will
unmute
you
and
so
you'll
be
able
to
make
your
comments
and
as
a
room
as
Cindy
said,
we're
not
able
to
permit
you
to
use
your
video.
If
you
are
on
the
phone
you
may
press
star
six
to
unmute
and
I
can
help
with
that
too.
C
C
D
C
D
E
F
C
C
Anyone
who
is
on
the
call
who
is
a
member
of
the
public
who
wants
to
speak
to
an
item
that
is
not
a
public
hearing
item
tonight
tonight.
The
public
hearing
item
is
consideration
of
a
site
review
to
redevelop
1727
in
1737
Pearl
Street
as
a
three-story
mixed-use
building.
If
you
want
to
speak
to
that
item,
you'll
have
to
wait
until
public
comment
on
that
public
hearing
item.
C
B
Harmon
so
because
we
don't
have
registration
for
open
and
public
comment
tonight,
you
can
indicate
you
would
like
to
participate,
but
with
the
raised
hand,
function
the
raised
hand.
Button
is
in
the
participants
box,
which
can
be
found
in
the
menu
by
hovering
over
the
top
or
the
bottom
of
your
screen
and
clicking
on
the
participant
icon.
When
the
box
opens,
you
will
see
the
raised
hand
button
at
the
bottom.
By
clicking
that
button,
you
can
indicate
that
you
would
like
to
participate
in
an
open
or
public
comment
and
again.
B
If
anybody
has
joined
us
by
phone,
you
can
press
star
9
to
raise
your
hand.
I'm
also
going
to
reiterate
that
for
me
to
unmute
you
for
public
comment,
if
your
hand
is
raised,
we
need
to
have
your
full
name
displaying
so
I'm,
seeing
Ray,
Wrigley
and
Lynn
Lynn
I'm
going
to
ask
you
I,
think
I'm,
pretty
sure.
I
know
this
know
this
Lynn
but
I'm
going
to
ask
you
to
rename
yourself
with
your
full
name
per
our
rules
and
again
just
to
be
fair
and
respectful
in
the
meeting.
B
We
don't
allow
video
during
the
public
comment,
and
this
is
because
you
may
think
that
the
poster
behind
you
is
totally
awesome
but
I'm
not
in
a
position
to
judge
whether
that's
offensive
to
anybody
else
or
not.
So
we're
gonna
ask
ask
you
to
make
sure
that
you
keep
your
video
off
once
you're
unmuted,
so
we
have
Lynd
seagull
and
Ray
Wrigley,
so
Lynn
I'm,
gonna
unmute.
You
now
I
think.
G
Yeah
you
hear
me:
yes,
we
can
lean,
you
can
go
ahead.
Yeah
I
always
put
my
last
name
on
there,
but
then
it
doesn't
come
up
each
time,
yeah
first
longer,
I
I,
don't
believe
in
this
video
business
and
the
chat
and
the
QA
and
the
participants.
Those
are
all
things
that
I
need
to
know
as
a
member
of
the
public
and
in
the
times
of
Koba.
Now
for
four
months
we
don't
have
any
connection
between
ourselves
within
the
community,
so
we
need
the
chat
to
connect
between
each
other.
G
We
also
don't
have
video
I.
Don't
think
that
is
a
good
excuse
of
what
picture
you
haven't
background.
That
is
not
that
does
not
hurt
anybody.
That
is
not
a
physical
problem
with
anyone,
so
it
should
be
removed.
I'm
sure
that
there
is
no
place
in
the
country
that
has
such
onerous
rules
about
the
video
being
on,
and
if
that's
so,
then
why?
G
Don't
you
remove
your
videos
between
yourself
and
see
what
that
feels
like
have
some
empathy
for
others
and
for
your
community
in
times
of
COBIT,
when
they
are
self
isolated
and
when
they
cannot
see
each
other
when
they
need
to
and
when
they
cannot
communicate
between
each
other?
When
they
have
chat,
they
can
do
that.
They
can
debrief
on
issues
and
also
you
don't
need
to
end
the
meeting
at
the
end.
You
can
leave
it
open
and
people
can
chat
between
themselves.
G
There's
no
harm
in
that
there's
never
been
any
harm
in
the
community
members
convenient
within
themselves.
So
please
change
those
rules
now.
The
other
issue
that
I
want
to
bring
up
is
the
passionate
desire
that
there
appears
to
be
on
the
part
of
this
community
in
the
endless
building
of
high-end
condominium
and
the
the
inclusionary
zoning.
G
H
B
C
This
decision
may
be
called
up
before
us,
the
Planning
Board
on
or
before
June
26th,
to
look
2020,
which
is
tomorrow
before
we
go
to
any
questions
or
decisions
or
anything
about
whether
we're
going
to
call
it
up.
I'm
gonna
ask
if
there
are
any
members
of
the
Planning
Board
that
need
to
disclose
any
relationships
around
this
particular
call
up.
Item.
C
Okay,
that
item
will
not
be
called
up.
The
second
call
out
item
is
minor
site
review
amendment
for
59.95
Arapahoe
Avenue
for
a
7103
square
foot
addition
to
expand
the
service
area
of
the
existing
Flatiron
Subaru
automobile
dealership.
The
decision
may
be
called
up
before
the
Planning
Board
on
ER
before
tomorrow,
June
26
2020
again.
Are
there
any
planning
board
members
who
have
any
disclosures
or
conflicts
that
they
need
to
disclose
about
this
matter?
C
C
This
is
our
only
public
hearing
for
the
night.
It's
a
public
hearing
and
consideration
of
the
site
review
to
redevelop
the
properties
at
17,
27
and
17
37
Pearl
Street,
with
a
28,000
222
square-foot
three-story
mixed-use,
building
containing
nine
thousand
four
hundred
and
thirty
nine
square
feet
of
commercial
space.
C
On
the
first
floor
and
fourteen
residential
units
on
the
second
and
third
floors
case
number
L,
you
are
2018
triple
o
73,
divided
round
parking
with
important
vehicle
er
parking
spaces
before
I
turn
it
over
to
Charles
to
turn
it
over
to
the
planner
who's
going
to
handle
this
matter.
Are
there
any
planning
board
members?
Can
we
take
this
site
the
screenshare
down
for
a
second?
Are
there
any
planning
board
members
who
need
to
disclose
any
conflicts
or
potential
conflicts,
make
any
disclosures
regarding
this
matter.
C
Okay,
well
I'm,
going
to
be
the
engineer
who
has
helped
to
submit
this
application
is
Scott
Cox
and
associates,
and
Scott
Cox
and
associates
is
working
on
a
development
project
in
gilpin
County
doing
some
engineering
analysis
for
due
diligence.
They
actually
haven't
done
any
work
on
the
project
for
over
a
year
I'm.
The
attorney,
who
is
handling
entitlement
for
the
project.
C
I
have
no
contractual
relationship
with
Scott,
Cox
and
associates.
Each
of
us
are
agents
of
the
applicant
in
that
matter,
but
pursuant
to
paragraph
two
point,
seven
eight
or
two
seven,
eight
of
the
Boulder
Revised
Code,
if
read
broadly
enough,
I
think
that
could
be
a
personal
or
professional
relationship
with
any
company
or
individual
who
has
or
is
seeking
to
have
a
business
relationship
with
the
city
and
therefore
I'm
going
to
disclose
that
I
have
that
relationship
with
Scott
Cox
and
associates
hella.
I
Herman,
as
you
know,
we
talked
about
the
situation
and
I
advised
you
that
it
does
not
amount
to
a
conflict
under
the
code.
This
relationship,
but
in
addition
to
what
you've
disclosed,
can
you
be
fair
and
impartial
in
the
decision
in
this
project
and
make
your
decision
solely
based
on
the
evidence,
that's
being
presented
to
you
for
this
project?
Yes,.
C
D
You
have
any
yeah
I,
just
realized
that
this
may
sound
silly,
but
in
the
disclosure
aspect,
I
worked
for
the
predecessor,
firm
of
Scott
Cox
and
associates
in
high
school
as
a
surveyor
surveyors
assistant
I
have
not
had
any
contact
with
them
since
then,
and
I
believe
I
can
address
this
in
a
fair
and
objective
manner.
Thanks.
C
J
F
K
F
F
F
All
right
and
everybody
see
that
okay,
there
we
go
all
right
so
for
an
overview.
I'm
gonna
cover
the
state
review
process,
the
existing
context
and
background
information.
I
will
describe
the
proposed
project
and
bring
out
two
key
issues
for
discussion
that
were
identified
by
staff
and
then
end
with
word.
F
So
in
terms
of
review
process,
the
applicant
has
elected
to
go
through
the
site
review
process.
It
is
not
required
based
on
the
size
of
the
property
and
the
amount
of
for
you
know
that
they're
proposing
as
part
of
site
review,
they
are
proposing
a
couple
of
modifications
to
the
land
use
code
as
part
of
the
review
process.
The
first
is
to
allow
for
three
stories
where
two
is
allowed
by
right.
F
The
second
is
allowing
50%
of
the
ground
floor
area
to
be
transparent
materials
where
60%
is
required.
The
third
is
to
allow
a
10-foot
front
yard
step
back
from
the
street
for
the
third
story
in
portions
of
the
third
story,
where
15
feet
is
required
and
the
last
one
is
for
the
side
yard
setback
from
an
interior
lot
line
for
that
third
story
to
allow
for
a
0
foot
where
12
feet
would
be
required
by
rights.
F
So
the
site
is
also
within
the
interface
area
of
downtown
Boulder
and
is
subject
to
the
downtown
urban
design
guidelines.
So
it
also
requires
review
by
the
design
and
misery
board
and.
F
It
is
within
the
interface
area
of
downtown,
which
is
the
edges
of
downtown
and
is
composed
of
the
blocks
that
link
the
downtown
core
to
the
surrounding
residential
neighborhoods,
and
the
guidelines
states
that
this
area
requires
special
design
sensitivities
for
buildings
that
are
constructed
adjacent
to
residential
uses
and
reviewed
the
proposal
twice
in
2019.
The
reason
for
that
was
the
initial
proposal
was
just
for
the
property
at
1737
pearl
and
through
the
design
process.
F
So
there's
a
little
picture
showing
where
the
site
is
located
within
the
boundaries
of
the
area
in
terms
of
public
notification
and
the
project
has
met
all
of
the
requirements
of
the
code.
Written
notice
was
sent
to
property
owners
twice
to
inform
neighbors
of
the
change
in
the
scope
of
the
projects.
A
sign
has
been
posted
on
the
property.
The
applicant
also
hosted
two
neighborhood
meetings
to
introduce
the
concepts
and
start
a
conversation
with
the
neighborhood
which
the
applicant
and
we
did
receive
a
number
of
public
comments.
F
So
in
terms
of
location,
the
site's
just
over
a
quarter
acre
and
is
located
just
north
of
Pearl
Street.
It's
located
approximately
two
and
a
half
blocks
from
the
pedestrian
mall
on
the
eastern
edge
of
downtown.
It's
not
within
a
historic
district,
but
it
is
within
the
central
area.
General
Improvement
District,
also
known
as
Kay
Jed
and
the
downtown
Boulder
Business
Improvement
Districts
kaija
does
provide
parking
and
other
improvements
within
the
downtown
area.
F
F
Right
there
go,
the
corresponding
zoning
district
is
downtown
too,
which
is
a
little
bit
of
a
unique
zoning,
because
in
the
description
it
does
articulate
that
there
does
need
to
be
a
balance
between
developments
and
also
balancing
that
with
historic
neighborhoods
and
the
urban
design
in
terms
of
site
history.
The
property
at
1727
pearl
contains
a
one
and
two
story
structure
that
was
built
as
two
separate
structures
and
it
was
constructed
pre-1940
and
the
buildings
contained
retail,
which
is
Little,
Buddha
imports,
top
hat
supply
and
some
office
uses
property
at
1737.
F
Pearl
contains
a
single
story
structure
built
in
1966
the
original
useless
office,
which
some
of
these
historic
photos
are
showing
I
think
these
are
circa
1970s.
Today
the
building
contains
retail,
which
is
red-letter
books
and
a
restaurant
use.
F
Preliminary
staff
research
does
indicate
that
the
historic
integrity
has
been
compromised
as
a
result
of
a
number
of
inappropriate
changes
to
the
building
and
the
actual
demolition
of
the
buildings
would
be
reviewed
through
the
historic
preservation
demolition
review
process
for
all
buildings
over
fifty
years
in
age.
It
does
look
like
the
building
at
seventeen.
Thirty
seven
would
be
a
staff
level
review.
However,
the
building
at
seventeen
twenty
seven
is
constructed
before
1940.
It
appears
so
the
landmark
design
review
committee
would
need
to
review
that
application
before
they
could
move
into
subsequent
steps
in
the
process.
F
So,
to
give
some
more
context,
the
project
site
as
I
described,
is
located
on
that
eastern
extension
upholstery
known
as
Perle,
and
it
is
within
the
downtown
zoning.
This
portion
of
Pro
Street
contains
a
variety
of
retail
restaurants,
residential
and
office
uses
office
uses
and
is
characterized
by
a
compact
urban
character.
This
view
shows
the
Cascade
of
building
mass
scale
and
intensity
as
Pearl
Street
moves
to
the
east
and
the
15th
streets
and
Pearl
parking
garage
is
located
about
two
blocks
to
the
west
of
the
site.
F
There's
also
a
metered
parking
on
17th,
18th
and
Pro
streets
adjacent
to
the
site.
The
building
immediately
to
the
east
moving
on
is
a
one-story
brick
building,
which
contains
retail
in
a
restaurant,
which
is
full
cycle.
The
building
immediately
to
the
west
is
three
stories
and
38
feet
in
height
and
contains
retail
apartments
and
the
restaurant
use
and
also
offices
there.
The
boss
also
contains
a
two-story
structure
on
the
corner
of
17th
and
M.
F
Cross
pearl
are
both
two
and
three-story
buildings
which
contain
a
mix
of
restaurant
office,
financial
institution
and
also
residential
uses,
and
to
the
east
of
the
sites
along
Pearl
Street
is
that
East
pearl
district,
which
has
a
mix
of
use
through
the
mu3
zoning
and
the
Whittier
neighborhood,
is
located
to
the
north
of
the
sites
within
the
residential
mixed
one
district.
It
is
a
historic
residential.
Neighborhood
is
characterized
by
mostly
single-family
homes
constructed
in
the
late
1800s
and
early
1900s.
F
There
are
two
single-family
homes,
both
two-story
and
Heights,
immediately
across
the
site,
immediately
across
the
alley
from
the
site.
So
moving
on
to
the
proposal,
the
proposal
is
for
a
mixed-use
development
with
round
four
commercial.
It's
about
9,500
square
feet
of
commercial
uses
and
residential
units
would
be
located
on
the
2nd
and
3rd
stories.
F
The
current
proposal
is
for
a
retail
use
which
is
allowed
in
the
zoning.
However,
those
commercial
spaces
could
also
use
be
used
by
uses
like
restaurants
or
financial
institutions,
as
long
as
they
meet
the
criteria
in
the
land
use
code
and
the
development
would
also
contain
14
dwelling
units,
8
would
be
one-bedroom
units
and
six
would
be
two-bedroom
units,
as
I
mentioned,
the
site
is
within
cage
ed,
which
means
that
one
parking
space
is
required
for
each
dwelling
units,
but
no
parking
is
required
for
the
commercial
uses.
F
They
are
proposing
a
below
grade
parking
brush,
which
we
would
be
accessed
from
the
alley
by
an
auto
elevator,
so
they
would
have
14
spaces
in
the
garage
and
for
tandem
spaces,
provided
the
benefit
of
the
auto
elevator
is
that
it
reduces
the
amount
of
lands
necessary
for
the
ramp
and
also
allows
for
additional
parking
spaces
in
terms
of
bike
parking.
F
They
are
proposing
40
long-term,
secured
bike
parking
spaces
in
the
parking
garage
which
would
be
used
both
by
the
residents
and
by
employees
of
the
commercial
uses,
and
they
wouldn't
be
providing
any
short-term
bike
parking
on
sites.
But
they
are
proposing
to
install
new
racks
in
the
Pearl
Street
right
away,
which
would
be
12
spaces
and
those
would
be
accessible
to
those
who
are
visiting
the
site.
F
So
the
proposal
in
terms
of
intensity
is
for
about
28
thousand
square
feet
of
floor
area,
which
amounts
to
2.0
for
area
ratio.
The
base
FA
are
allowed
in
the
land.
Use
code
is
1.5,
however,
this
project
does
qualify
for
an
additional
0.5,
because
the
project
rates
residential
uses
and
also
provides
parking
entirely
within
the
structure.
So
they
are
at
the
allowed
amount
of
intensity
in
terms
of
the
site
plan,
as
I
mentioned,
they
are
proposing
access
from
the
alley
into
that
auto
elevator.
F
The
alley
would
also
have
areas
for
loading,
rain,
garden
and
detention
areas
in
the
back
of
the
site.
The
building
is
set
back
15
feet
from
the
alley
on
the
Pro
Street
frontage,
the
design
fellows
more
of
a
traditional
building
orientation,
which
was
established
as
sort
of
the
Main
Street
type
of
development
along
Pearl
Street.
F
It
is
designed
to
enhance
the
pedestrian
experience
with
storefront
windows
and
that
pedestrian
scale
level
of
detailing
the
facade
is
broken
up
by
a
Paseo
which
connects
to
an
interior
courtyard
that
Paseo
passes
underneath
the
third
storey
of
the
building.
F
F
In
terms
of
building
design,
the
building
is
three
stories,
as
I
mentioned
and
38
feet
in
height,
it
is
contemporary
with
some
new
traditional
elements.
There
are
those
storefront
windows
which
is
compatible
with
that
Pearl
Street
character.
This
third
story
is
set
back
from
that
front
facade
to
help
reduce
the
perceived
height
of
the
building,
the
mass
I
step
back
10
feet
from
Pearl
Street
on
the
east
and
west
edges
and
then
15
feet
in
the
center
portion.
F
The
proposed
building
materials
would
be
to
be
constructed
out
of
past
in
place
concrete.
There
would
also
be
some
use
of
stucco
and
CMU,
and
some
detailing
with
wood
look
laminate,
cladding
and
cement
board
siding
in
select
locations.
The
concrete
is
intended
to
give
a
stone
like
quality
or
depth
to
it.
F
Here's
the
perspective
along
that
Pearl
Street
frontage,
so
moving
on
to
key
issues
identified
by
staff,
the
first
would
be
whether
it
meets
the
site
review
criteria
and
the
second
would
be
whether
it's
consistent
with
those
downtown
design
guidelines
that
I
described
so
in
terms
of
the
site
review
criteria.
Staff
does
find
that
it
meets
the
intent
of
the
regional
business,
land,
use,
designation
and
also
a
number
of
comprehensive
plan
policies
which
are
listed
here.
F
It
is
an
in
urban
configuration
which
enhances
the
pedestrian
experience.
It
also
helps
to
establish
continuity
and
the
asset
in
that
human
scale
along
Pearl
Street.
The
open
spaces
are
appropriate,
given
the
urban
context
and
proximity
to
the
Pearl
Street
Mall,
the
building's
Heights
mass
and
scale
and
overall
appearance
is
compatible
with
the
surrounding
character
and
while
the
existing
urban
design
character
is
eclectic,
there
are
buildings
that
in
the
surrounding
area
that
have
compatible
characteristics,
they're
sort
of
a
survey
provided
in
the
staff
memo
to
show
the
variety
and
building
heights
within
the
area.
F
F
Moving
on
to
the
design
guidelines,
the
urban
design
objectives
for
these
interface
areas,
among
others,
is
to
reinforce
the
character
of
downtown
as
a
pedestrian
place
by
encouraging
architectural
solutions
that
are
visually
pleasing
reflective
of
contemporary
times,
yet
stylistically
appropriate
to
the
context
and
compatible
and
scale
and
character
with
our
streets.
So
with
that
in
mind,
this
proposal
is
consistent
with
those
applicable
design
guidelines.
The
building
is
reflective
of
the
character,
but
also
reflective
of
its
own
time.
It's
respectful
of
the
integrity
scale
and
massing
of
historic
buildings
and
the
surrounding
areas.
C
L
F
Sure
so
the
site
itself
is
in
the
downtown
district,
which
is
in
solar
area
three,
where
shadows
or
rooftops
are
not
protected.
However,
the
district
across
the
alley
to
the
north
is,
in
our
part,
mx1
district
and
the
code
does
state
if
you
are
shading
a
district
that
is
protected,
that
you
need
to
demonstrate
that
you
need
the
requirements
of
that
district.
F
M
F
So
I
don't
have
those
in
front
of
me,
but
I
think
the
intent
of
that
comment
was
that
they
needed
to
show
what
the
shadow
of
the
prescribed
solar
fence
was
at
the
neighboring
property
line,
and
you
compare
that
to
what
the
actual
building
would
be
shading
so
I
on
the
plans
that
they're
providing
they're,
showing
shadows
that
would
be
cast
based
on
that
perspective,
sense
vs.
shadows
that
are
cast
by
the
building
and
showing
that
they
are
not
going
over.
That
amount.
Does
that
make
sense.
F
The
code
states
that
there
is
a
proscribed,
solar
fence
that
is
come,
that
applicants
are
comparing
their
shadows
against.
They
can't
go
over
what
the
prescribed
shading
is
I.
Think
it's
12
feet
in
this
district,
but
I
can't
remember
off
the
top
of
my
head.
So
on
those
plans
are
showing
what
the
shadow
would
be
from
the
proscribed
fence
and
then
showing
what
the
shadow
would
be
from
the
proposed
building
and
those
plans
are
showing
that
they're
not
exceeding
what
would
be
allowed.
M
Okay,
I
have
one
other
question:
I
just
wanted
to
understand
what
the
purpose
in
the
code
is
of
the
12-foot
side,
yard
setbacks.
F
That's
a
great
question:
I
mean
I,
think
on
the
Pearl
Street
the
front
yard
setback.
It
was
really
to
reduce
the
perceived
massive
scale
of
buildings
on
the
side
yard.
It's
not
as
clear
to
me.
I,
don't
know
what
Charles
hasn't
me
background
that
I'm
not
aware
of
but
I
think
it
was
just
sort
of
provide
some
visual
connections
through
blocks.
F
F
It
would
bring
you
down
to
the
next
level
and
staff
has
asked
for
a
lot
and
we
don't
see
a
lot
of
them
across
the
city
at
this
point,
and
but
staff
has
us
for
a
lot
of
detail
about
what
happens
when
someone
is
waiting
for
the
elevator
or
what
happens
if
power
goes
out?
What
happens
if
it
breaks,
so
they
do
have
there's
a
lot
of
detail
in
the
memo
of
with
the
specs
on
that,
and
they
have
a
description
of
who
they
have
contracted
to
fix
it.
F
F
You
know
work
out
here,
yeah
our
transportation
engineer
reviewing
it
is
familiar,
but
in
terms
of
like
how
its
operates
in
the
city,
this
would
I
think
there
may
or
may
be
one
more
that's
been
proposed.
I,
don't
know
if
it
was
ever
constructed.
M
D
Yeah,
thank
you.
So
thanks
for
that
presentation,
I
was
wondering
what
the
significance
of
the
classification
of
this
area
is.
A
transition
area
is
with
respect
to
the
you
know,
the
residential
area,
to
the
north.
What
what?
What
does
that
mean
in
terms
of
requirements
and
in
terms
of
actual
practice,
sure.
F
F
Also,
the
zoning
speaks
to
that
as
well,
and
I
do
think
that
there
is
a
balance
between
what
the
established
character
and
building
design
is
and
how
it
can
transition
to
the
residential.
And
so
if
the
code
does
allow
you
to
go
to
three
stories
and
38
feet,
and
you
could
also,
there
are
buildings
that
are
38
feet
with
two
stories
and
that
is
sort
of
the
established,
at
least
for
most
of
that
part
of
downtown.
F
That
is
the
established
character,
and
if
you
were
in
a
buy
right
projects,
they
would
be
able
to
build
to
38
feet
at
two
stories
and
just
meet
all
the
setbacks
which
you'll
see
in
some
parts
of
the
block.
So
I
think
the
intent
of
that
was
just
really
to
keep
in
mind
that
it
should
be
sensitive
in
the
way
that
it's
built
and
the
impacts
of
neighbors
that
there
are
knows
prescriptive
review
criteria
to
measure
that
against.
So
it
is
very
discretionary.
F
F
N
C
C
K
J
M
So
I
just
I
I'm
quite
concerned
about
the
the
existing
housing.
That's
on
the
alley
and
I'm
just
curious
how
the
staff
thought
that,
through
I
realized
that
the
letter
of
the
code
is
met
but
I,
don't
think
we
I
think
it's.
We
want
to
try
to
protect
the
livability
of
existing
housing,
so
I'm
just
sort
of
curious.
How
you
all
thought
that,
through.
F
Sure
so
you
know
kind
of
how
I
described
our
analysis
was
really
looking
at
the
balance
between
what
the
existing
character
is:
I'm,
Pro,
Street
and
also
meeting
those
intents
of
being
respectful,
I.
One
point:
the
applicant
was
asking
for
a
setback
modification
on
the
alley
and
after
he
remember
if
it
was
the
first
or
second
neighborhood
meeting,
they
did
decide
that
they
were
gonna.
Do
the
requirements
and
provide
Street
trees
on
the
alley,
so
sort
of
provide
a
buffer
and
I
think
from
staffs
perspective.
It's
just
her.
F
You
know
continuing
the
character
pearl
and
that
downtown
storefront
sort
of
character
and
also
ensuring
that
there's
not
undue
impacts.
I.
Think
in
this
case
it
you
know
it's
14
units,
it's
not
an
office
use.
That's
gonna
have
a
high
amount
of
traffic
generated
so
I.
We,
you
know
again,
I
think
we
find
that
it
does
meet
that
criteria.
In
this
case.
M
F
C
D
I'm
trying
to
understand
a
little
bit
more
about
the
setback
along
the
east
and
west
boundaries
or
the
internal
lot
line
setback
requirement.
That
confuses
me
a
little
bit
that
in
in
the
staffs
decision
about
about
that
was
it
decided
that
it
was
probable
that
the
buildings
on
either
side
of
this
building
were
likely
eventually
to
be
modified,
to
have
three
story
to
38
foot
high
buildings
and
therefore
no
setback
was
appropriate
and
no
windows
along
those
walls
were
appropriate.
F
I
definitely
think
that
was
a
consideration
that
you
know
if
you're
looking
at
this
being
a
project
with
a
lot
of
longevity,
is
you
know
over
time?
Those
probably
will
redevelop
and
I
think
that
those
would
be
individually
analyzed
on
what
the
appropriate
height
and
scale
is.
F
You
know
the
guidelines
say
that
there
should
be
a
variety
of
heights
and
that
should
be
maintained.
So
I
can't
give
you
an
answer
on
what
would
be
approved
there
unless
they
did
the
by
right
standards,
but
I
can't
say
in
terms
of
having
the
zero
lot
line.
Setbacks
is.
That
is
the
pattern
that
has
been
established
and
all
of
the
buildings
on
this
I
am
North
Side
in
the
south
side
of
pearl
had
those
shared
walls,
so
the
assumption
can
be
that
that
would
probably
be
how
they
would
be
constructed.
So
I'm.
F
Through
the
site
review
process,
but
if
they
were
going
through
it
by
right
projects,
they
would
have
to
meet
that
criteria
and
again
Charles
and
I.
Don't
know
the
backgrounds
why
that
was
adopted,
but
I
think
it
was
again
just
to
provide
those
visual
connections
through
the
blocks
and
provide
some
relief
to
the
density
on
the
upper
storeys.
F
C
C
F
So
we
have
Jeff
Dawson
and
Chris
Russell
and
Adam
works
here.
I
don't
know,
are
they
able
to
unmute
themselves
gene?
They
are
okay.
So
if
you
guys
want
to
go
ahead
and
kick
it
off,
I'll
bring
up
the
presentation.
O
Everybody,
this
is
Adam
words,
I'm
gonna
do
a
little
intro
and
use
myself
before
we
get
started.
Everyone
hear
me:
okay,
yes
and
I'll
share
my
video
too.
So
you
can
see
how
long
my
hair
is.
Since
this
whole
kovat
thing
started
so
so
yeah
I
want
to
first
kind
of
start.
Let
me
just
pull
up
something
real,
quick.
O
Perfect
money,
if
I'd
be
bent
like
that,
while
I
just
kind
of
do
my
brief
intro
first
of
all,
I'd
like
to
thank
all
the
city
staff
and
the
boulder
residents
for
the
time
and
consideration
that
everyone's
put
into
this
project.
It's
been
two
years
in
the
works
now
I
know
kind
of
as
a
Cu
alum
local
business
owner
and
a
boulder
resident
for
the
last
20
years.
This
is
a
project
that
is
definitely
near
and
dear
to
my
heart.
O
It's
one
that
I'm
definitely
taking
serious,
not
some
out-of-state
developer
who's,
just
looking
to
come
in
here
and
develop
Pearl
Street.
You
know
personally,
over
the
last
20
years.
You
know
if
Whitner
witness
boulders
transformation.
I've,
always
you
know
kind
of
often
wondered.
Why
has
an
East
pearl
developed
and
why
doesn't
East
pearl?
O
Have
its
own
identity
and
I
think
as
a
result,
I
personally
wanted
to
get
involved
and
provide
East
pearl
with
a
project
that
I
as
a
local
resident
and
the
community
could
actually
be
proud
of,
and
that
could
actually
set
the
stage,
for
you
know
other
promotion
of
other
businesses
and
in
development
and
architectural
design.
On
that
end
of
pearl,
so
you
know
in
designing
this
building.
O
It
was
really
our
goal
to
create
a
building
that
would
promote
vitality
of
East,
pearl
business
sector
it
and
provided
the
much-needed
kind
of
downtown
housing
and
residences
to
support
these
local
businesses.
I
do
feel
personally
that
you
know
the
resident.
The
the
businesses
on
the
East
End
of
pearl
are
a
little
bit
of
a
disadvantage
compared
the
walking
resident,
walking
ball
and
on
the
west
end
of
pearl
and
I
feel
like
we
have
a
good
opportunity
here.
O
As
you
know,
local
bolder
residents
to
develop
something
and
promote
a
place
that
people
really
want
to
be
and
really
want
to
walk
around
and
really
want
to
hang
out
and
I.
Think
that
that's
one
of
our
goals.
So
in
order
to
really
kind
of
achieve
these
goals,
I
mean
we
took
the
steps
of
conducting,
as
Sloane
mentioned,
to
neighborhood
meetings,
and
we
also
went
through
to
dad
meetings
and
we
incorporated
many
of
these
rule
comments
and
our
design
plan.
O
Specifically
upon
like
hearing
the
city
staff
and
the
neighbors
comments,
you
know
we
were
lucky
enough
to
kind
of
have
the
opportunity
to
expand.
The
project
onto
the
adjacent
site
comes
to
the
1727
1725
site,
which
allowed
us
to
redesign
the
entire
project
to
include
the
recommendations
from
staff
and
the
neighborhood
directly
into
the
project
that
you
will
see
today.
You
know
I
think
Sloane's
mentioned
previously.
Initially
we
were
not,
we
didn't
have.
O
We
were
asking
for
a
setback
reduction
towards
the
neighborhood
and
when
we
came
back
and
redesigned
the
building,
we've
moved
the
building
all
the
way
back,
15
feet
from
the
alley
to
meet
the
requirements
and
provide
more
spacing
for
the
neighbors
and
so
I.
Think
now,
as
you
like
review
the
project,
I
think
we
really
have
designed
a
really
beautiful
building
that
we're
calling
the
Navy,
building
and
I
think
that
it
will
modernize
the
East
in
the
pearl
and
you
know,
I
think
it
has
a
design
aesthetic.
O
P
Thanks
Adam,
can
everybody
hear
me
now?
Yes,
okay,
thanks
Sloane
and
thank
you
Adam,
and
thank
you
to
the
board
members
for
the
opportunity
to
present
this
project
virtually
to
you
this
evening.
The
project
you
before
you
this
evening
was,
as
Adam
mentioned,
conceived
by
the
owners
vision
to
provide
something
truly
exciting
and
beneficial
to
the
city.
They
call
home
I
can't
do
a
better
job
summarizing
the
project
in
the
few
minutes
that
I
have
than
what
staff
prepared
for
you
in
their
memo
and
in
their
presentation.
P
Thank
you
over
the
past
two
years
is
kind
of
was
mentioned.
We
work
closely
with
staff
really
closely
with
staff.
We
presented
the
project
twice
to
dab,
we
helped
to
neighborhood
meetings,
to
gather
ideas
and
to
hear
concerns,
and
we
redesigned
the
project
a
number
of
times
to
respond
to
those
ideas
and
concerns.
We
initially
brought
the
project
to
staff
in
2018,
as
Sloane
mentioned,
as
a
redevelopment
to
the
1737
property
only
and
in
order
to
provide
as
much
retail
and
residential
space
as
possible.
P
P
We
listen
to
this
feedback
and
took
a
tough
look
at
the
obstacles
that
they
presented
in
2009.
As
Adam
mentioned,
he
saw
an
opportunity
to
secure
the
adjacent
property
which
really
allowed
us
to
expand
the
project
and
properly
respond
to
these
concerns
and
the
design,
and
we
were
able
to
design
the
incredibly
dynamic
project
that
you
see
here
tonight.
We
believe
that
this
design
supports
the
intent
of
the
dt2
zone.
P
P
Right
so
I
can
kind
of
talk
through
the
next
slide,
a
little
bit
so
kind
of
building
on
what
a
mixed-use
project
in
Boulder
should
truly
be.
We
asked
ourselves
that
question.
You
know
what
what
should
it
truly
be,
and
how
do
we
marry
it
to
this
location
on
East
Pearl?
Our
answer
was
that
this
building
needed
to
first
identify
and
then
respond
to
the
needs
of
both
the
neighborhood
and
the
city
as
a
whole
and
also
provides
something
unique,
and
you
know
quote
Boulder
asked
for
the
project.
P
We
knew
that
this
meant
that
they
would
have
to
be
that
we
would
have
to
support
the
city's
need
for
housing.
By
providing
a
third
floor
to
maximize
the
number
of
units,
we
would
have
to
support
and
promote
the
economic
vitality
of
East
Pearl
by
maximizing
the
amount
of
retail
space
in
making
that
retail
space
as
inviting
as
possible,
we
needed
to
respond
to
the
concerns
over
the
alley
and
provide
an
alley
that
was
useful.
P
That
was
beautiful
and
minimized
impacts
to
the
neighbors
we
needed
to
meet
the
intent
of
the
design
guidelines
by
providing
more
architectural
presence
along
Pearl.
That
was
compatible
to
its
context.
We
needed
to
meet
the
intent
of
the
dt2
zone
by
providing
an
appropriate
density
and
massing
for
the
build,
and
we
needed
to
provide
different
types
of
open
space
within
the
project,
for
both
the
public
and
residents
to
use
and
enjoy
I.
B
F
F
P
Trying
but
yeah
there
are
some
questions
from
the
members
of
the
board
about
the
auto
elevator,
which
I'm
happy
to
you
know,
walk
you
guys
through
a
little
bit
of
that
kind
of
you
know
what
that
looks
like
I,
think
I
think
the
project's
at
the
Boulder
Daily
Camera
was
more
of
an
auto
matrix.
So
like
an
automated
parking
system-
and
somebody
can
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong
there,
which
kind
of
shuffled
the
cars
kind
of
took
them
in
up
and
around
ours,
is
not
that
sophisticated
or.
F
P
P
Sorry,
a
denver
presence,
so
maintenance
and
repair
would
be
relatively
quick
and
I
can
kind
of
go
into
more
of
that
detail
a
little
bit
later,
as
there
would
be
funds
set
aside
through
the
HOA
to
provide
that
service,
and
if
it
were
to
go
down
that
money
could
also
go
to
reimbursing
the
tenants
for
a
rideshare
program
if
they
need
to
take
over
left
or
whatever
it
was.
I
can
go
into
more
detail
if
you
like
me
to
after
this
I'm.
B
P
All
right
it
uses
come
on
up
just
a
little
bit
Jean.
If
you
could
yep
there.
We
go.
That's
perfect.
Thank
you
very
much
sure
so,
just
to
kind
of
recap,
where
we
were,
we
kind
of,
we
were
identifying
the
needs
that
we
needed
to
provide
through
this
truly
mixed-use
building
to
respond
to
the
needs
of
both
the
city
and
the
neighborhood
as
a
whole,
and
on
this
slide,
as
you
can
imagine,
fitting,
all
of
this
stuff
on
a
small
site
was
challenging
and
required
a
lot
of
coordination
from
staff.
P
The
image
that
is
now
on
screen
is
the
ground
floor
plan
and
really
show
us
our
dynamic
and
compact.
Just
this
one
level
is
at
the
alley.
We'll
start
at
the
alley.
There
there's
a
lot
going
on
there.
We
pulled
the
building
further
back
than
what
we
were
initially
proposing
to
reduce
the
neighborhood
privacy
concerns
we
added
landscaping.
We
reduce
the
traffic
impacts
by
providing
a
larger
delivery
and
queuing
area
for
the
residents
and
kind
of
as
a
sidebar
there.
P
We
also
performed
queueing
analysis
and
their
probabilities
through
the
analysis
that
they
did
LSC,
provided
that
for
us
who
was
a
traffic
specialist,
their
probabilities
suggested
that
during
the
typical
afternoon
peak
hour,
this
is
the
peak
hour
in
the
afternoon.
There
would
only
be
about
15
seconds
15
seconds
when
two
vehicles
are
queued
at
the
auto,
auto
elevator
entrance
at
the
same
time,
so
15
seconds
out
of
the
high
peak
hour.
P
So
if
that
happens,
the
the
provided
delivery
space
would
allow
for
the
car
to
pull
off
of
the
alley
kind
of
moving
forward
on
this.
On
this
slide,
the
retail
shown
in
blue
represents
roughly
95
hundred
square
feet
of
new
retail
space
space,
most
of
which
has
access
to
light
air
and
public
storefronts.
P
Above
this
on
level
2,
we
are
providing
10
for
rent
users
for
rent
units
of
different
sizes
and,
above
that,
on
level
3.
We
are
providing
for
larger
for
sale
units.
All
of
the
units
facing
the
alley
were
redesigned
to
include
translucent
glass
balconies.
Instead
of
the
open
pickets
and
all
of
the
railings
were
I'm.
Sorry,
all
of
the
windows
facing
the
alley
were
reduced
in
size
to
help
respond
to
the
privacy
concerns
of
the
neighbors
across
the
alley.
P
Also,
on
the
third
floor,
we
notched
back
a
couple
of
our
balconies
on
those
two
units
that
face
the
alley
to
reduce
the
impacts
of
the
shadows.
If
you
could
scroll
down
gene
to
the
next
slide.
Thank
you.
This
image
is
a
good
overview
of
just
how
dynamic
the
massing
of
the
project
is,
while
still
being
consistent
with
the
surrounding
development
in
the
interfaces
own.
P
The
void
that
you
can
see
in
the
center
of
the
project
brings
light
and
air
down
to
the
public
courtyard
and
to
the
retail
and
residential
spaces
below
the
strong
two-story
facade
along
pearl
continues.
The
massing
of
the
adjacent
developments
to
the
west
and
to
the
south,
the
dark
blue
retail
base,
provides
for
a
human-scale
pedestrian
experience
and
relates
to
the
massing
of
the
building
to
the
east.
P
This
image
shows
the
quiet
rhythm
of
the
facade,
that
is,
a
modern
interpretation
of
a
more
traditional
architecture
of
the
historic
downtown.
The
blue
retail
base
will
have
more
traditional
detailing
on
the
columns
and
the
cornice,
with
more
modern
openings
glazing
and
warm
with
detailing
and
I
know.
The
base
looks
a
little
washed
out
here,
but
the
last
image,
the
last
rendering
will
show
that
a
little
bit
better,
the
two
upper
floors
will
be
clad
in
a
white
concrete
panel.
P
So
it's
a
little
different
Sloane
from
what
you
said
that
the
cast-in-place
this
will
be
a
fiber
reinforced
concrete
panel.
It's
a
lot
lighter,
which
will
require
a
little
less
structure,
to
put
it
up
and
be
a
little
more
sustainable,
so
that
concrete
panel
will
be
utilized
and
on
the
second
and
third
floor
we
introduce
more
modern
window
opening
proportions,
the
paseo
gateway
and
the
center
of
the
project
will
provide
a
more
modern
insertion
to
the
facade
and
will
become
a
recognizable
element
along
Pearl
Street.
P
This
gateway
will
lead
to
the
public
courtyard
and
what
this
is
what
we
would
believe
to
be
the
unique
kind
of
hidden
gem
for
the
project.
It
will
become
a
destination
for
those
who
know
it's
there
and
a
great
discovery
to
those
visiting
Pearl,
Street
and
gene.
If
you
could
go
down
one
more
page,
this
is
a
revised
rendering
of
the
public
courtyard.
Then
I
think
you
guys
saw
in
your
memos.
P
The
vision
for
this
courtyard
was
to
provide
a
unique
and
Boulder
asked
moment
along
Pearl
Street,
where
the
public
in
tenants
alike,
could
shop
could
rest.
They
could
gather
with
friends
the
water
and
the
fire
feature
will
draw
people
into
the
space
and
the
landscaping
the
seating
and
the
lighting
will
create
a
comfortable
and
inviting
space
that
will
be
received
well
received
and
become
such
a
huge
benefit
to
the
neighborhood
and
the
last
slide.
Please.
P
So
hopefully,
I've
given
a
bit
of
insight
into
the
project
where
it
started
how
and
why
has
evolved
and
how
we've
responded
to
neighborhood
concerns
to
deliver
a
project
that
encompasses
the
owners
vision
to
provide
an
exciting,
lasting,
beneficial
addition
to
downtown
Boulder,
and
so
with
that
I.
Thank
you
for
your
time
and
I'm.
Looking
forward
to
hearing
any
of
your
thoughts
and
answering
any
further
questions
that
you
guys
might
have.
C
Let's
bring
down
the
the
screen
share
for
for
now,
so
I
can
see
all
the
members
of
the
Planning
Board
okay.
This
is
a
time
where
Planning
Board
gets
to
ask
questions
of
the
applicant
and
then,
when
we're
finished,
asking
our
questions
we'll
go
to
public
comment.
So
I'll
take
hands
right
now
from
Planning
Board,
Lisa,
Smith,.
K
All
right
so
I'm
going
to
ask
about
that
central
courtyard
and
kind
of
special
shared
public-private
space,
so
I
was
curious.
First
of
all,
the
furniture
that's
shown
on
that
rendering
is
that
built
in
and
like
part
of
the
architectural
design,
or
is
it
envisioned
that
that'll
be
movable
furniture
I.
P
K
And
then
could
you
tell
me
a
little
bit
more
about
the
water
feature?
Please
yeah.
D
P
Yep,
that's
a
great
question.
This
is
a
discussion
that
we
had
with
staff
about
the
security
there.
So
we've
talked
about
cameras.
We've
talked
about
you
know
in
the
future,
maybe
providing
a
gate
there
that
might
be
closed
and
only
accessible
to
the
tenants.
I,
don't
know
if
you
noticed,
but
there's
a
tenant
resident
Lobby
in
the
north
of
that
courtyard,
so
they
would
be
the
only
ones
accessible
to
pass
through
that
gate
after
the
retail
spaces
have
closed.
D
P
P
O
O
The
question
is
yes,
the
public
will
have
access
to
that
quarter,
but
then
the
question
ability
comes
is
during
what
times
we
also
do
have
a
responsibility
to
the
resonances
for
security
purposes
in
the
evening
in
the
early
morning,
hours
and
so
I
think
you
know
we
have
to
ask
ourselves
okay,
if,
let's
just
say
for
hypothetical,
if
those
are
restaurants
in
there
and
the
restaurants
are
by
code,
have
to
close
at
10:00
p.m.
and
everyone
needs
to
be
out
of
there
regardless,
you
know.
Is
it
really
safe
to
have
that?
O
You
know
gateway
completely
open
to
that
courtyard
to
allow
people
to
congregate
in
there
at
12
o'clock
at
night
two
o'clock
in
the
morning,
and
my
answer
to
that
would
probably
be
not.
You
know,
I
think
that
there
needs
to
be
some
type
of
security
put
in
place
to
protect
the
rep.
You
know
the
residents
that
live
there
and
to
actually
you
know,
protect
the
building
from
any
type
of
trespassing
and
so
I
think.
That's
the
reason
why
we're
really
trying
to
contemplate
it's
like.
O
Is
there
some
way
that
that
gateway
closes
in
the
evening
to
prevent
some
type
of
prevent
vandalism
and
protect
the
residents
so
I
think
it's
safe
to
say
that
it
will
be
open
during
normal
business
hours?
But
the
question
is:
is
it
only
open
it?
Is
it
only
accessible
in
the
late
evening,
hours
after
business
hours
to
the
residents?
It
really
comes
down
to
security
safety,
concern
for
us
and
that's
kind
of
where
we're
at.
D
O
I
mean
we
have
considered,
there
is
a
possibility
of
their
restaurant
in
there
and
that
there
could
be
restaurant
tables
in
that
courtyard.
That
said,
you
still
need
to
have
room
for
just
casual
sitting
and
and
so
forth.
They
anticipated
design
of
the
inside
of
that
space
is
those
all
those
glass
panels
lining
the
inside
of
the
courtyard
or
actually
potentially
could
be
retractable
sliding
out,
and
so
therefore,
instead
of
giving
the
restaurants
full
access
to,
you
know
just
load
up
the
courtyard
with
tables
which
we
wouldn't
allow
them
to
do.
We're
now.
O
C
You
so
I
just
wanted
to
follow
on
and-
and
you
know,
ask
about
the
the
public,
the
the
open
quality
of
the
courtyard
and
whether
that's
gonna
remain
question
that
John
brought
up.
You
know
in
in
your
your
conditions
of
approval,
you're
required
to
build
to
the
approved
site
plans,
and
so
there
were
to
be
you
know,
security
gates
or
something
I'm,
not
sure
that
those
wouldn't
have
to
be
some
sort
of
a
modification.
C
O
Yeah
I
mean
I
in
my
opinion,
it's
our
intention
to
leave
it,
be
and
see
how
it
works.
I.
Think
that
said,
when
we're
designing,
you
know
our
CD
Docs
I
mean
we
definitely
need
to
make
sure
to
think
of
all
possible
scenarios.
So
if
we
had
to
say
put
in
some
clear
class
glass
doors
that
you
can
close
at
the
front
there,
so
it's
still
you
can
still
see
through
it
like.
How
do
we
need
to
do?
O
We
need
to
design
the
connections
for
those
to
make
sure
that
if
we
had
to
do
a
minor
mod
in
a
request
down
the
line
that
we
didn't
have
to,
you
know
rip
up
the
building
in
order
to
do
something
like
that,
it's
my
intention
and
it's
my
hope,
and
we
do
live
in
a
very
safe
place.
We've
all
lived
here
for
a
long
time,
but
I
think
you
have
to
as
a
developer,
think
about
every
possible
situation
and
be
like
okay.
How
do
we
plan
for
this?
O
If
this
happens,
because
our
intention
all
along
wasn't
actually,
we
personally
had
developers,
may
be
to
our
fault?
We
didn't
think
about
having
the
potential
for
putting
doors
or
anything
there
until
staff
brought
it
up
to
us.
Staff
was
like
hey.
Have
you
guys
thought
about
security
reasons?
Have
you
thought
about
having
a
way
to
lock
this
down
and
we're
like?
No?
Actually,
no.
We
didn't
really
think
about
that.
O
M
P
M
M
That's
great
because
I
was
worried
a
bit
that
this
be
sort
of
this,
even
though
it's
glass,
it
would
be
sort
of
an
impermeable
length
of
glass
and
also
I,
may
sound
like
Peter
on
with
this
question,
but
I
was
really
concerned
about
it.
The
design
guideline
that
requires
pedestrian
areas
to
be
free
of
ice
and
and
have
sunshine
during
the
winter
and
I
was
just
concerned
about
the
impact
or
what?
P
And
that's
something
that
I
think
will
have
to
be
maintained.
It
will
see
a
fair
amount
of
light
and
you
know
most
days,
but
in
those
darkest
days
you
know,
maybe
not
so
I
think
that's
you
know
Adam.
You
might
want
to
speak
to
this
too,
but
I
think
that
would
be
an
operation
and
maintenance
item
yeah.
O
On
the
first
floor
you
know
I
mean
for
restaurants.
Putting
in
you
know,
heating
elements
and
so
forth
that
are
built
into
the
space
goes
a
really
long
way.
If
it's
retail,
you
know,
maybe
not
so
much,
and
so
those
are
all
things
that
we're
taking
into
consideration
and
that
will
definitely
have
implemented
before
we
start
to
build.
M
All
right,
thank
you
and
then
just
the
question
about
the
alley.
The
so
I
realize
that
you
all
accommodated
the
required
15
foot
setback
but,
as
I
said
earlier,
I
am
concerned
about
the
existing
housing.
That's
already
on
the
alley,
and
you
mentioned
Chris
that
you
pulled
back
the
balconies
on
the
third
floor.
A
little
bit,
I
think
I
heard
you
say
that
what
would
be
the?
M
P
And-
and
we
kind
of
think
about
this
as
a
balloon-
this
is
kind
of
been.
You
know
our
crux
of
how
much
retail
and
how
much
residential-
and
you
know
what
we
do
so
you
know
you
think
about
it
as
a
balloon.
When,
when
you
squeeze
the
top,
it's
got
to
go
somewhere
right,
so
we
kind
of
balance
that,
to
the
best
the
best
way,
we
know
how
right
now,
with
the
design
and
so
that
courtyard
to
to
make
it
viable
and
and
usable.
P
M
P
True
and
that
square
footage
is
also
paying
you
know
for
some
of
that,
the
niceties
of
the
project-
you
know
that's
expensive
square
footage
up
there.
So
five
foot
over
you
know
a
hundred
feet.
You're
talking
a
lot,
a
lot
of
potential
money
there
that
you
could
put
elsewhere
into
the
into
the
project.
D
I
wanted
to
pursue
the
the
question
of
the
setback
along
the
sides
of
the
building
and
and
the
decision
not
to
put
any
windows
along
the
sides,
meaning
that
the
east
and
west
sides
have
you
had
conversations
with
the
neighbors
there
to
see
what
their
intentions
are
with
respect
to.
You
know
them
wanting
to
build
38-foot
buildings
on
either
side
of
your
building.
O
Personally,
I
have
had
conversations
with
the
neighbors.
We
already
have
a
three-story
building
to
our
West.
The
folks
who
own
the
place
in
the
corner,
I,
don't
think,
have
any
immediate
intentions
to
develop.
That
building
I
think
it's
it's
just
one
of
those
things
that
when
you
have
people
who
have
owned
property
in
Boulder
for
a
really
long
time-
and
you
don't
have
any
debt
on
it,
why
are
you
gonna,
tear
it
down
and
redevelop
it?
It
doesn't
make
any
sense
to
do
that.
O
D
Well,
yeah
I
mean
who
knows
I
mean
what
can
happen,
but
you
you
that
that
thinking
is
what
resulted
in
your
decision
a
not
to
have
a
setback
and
B
not
to
have
windows
along
those
walls.
So
I'm
just
trying
to
think
understand
what
you
can
do
to
make
them
more
attractive
because
they
will
be
visible.
D
P
Sorry
yep,
if
I
could
jump
in
there
a
little
bit,
there's
a
fire
code,
zero
to
three
feet
from
a
property
line.
You
can't
have
openings.
So
that's
it's
kind
of
a
fire
issue
there
and
kind
of
to
address
your
concern,
and
we
thought
about
that.
Too,
is
more
of
an
opportunity
right.
We
have
this
East
and
West
facade
that
have
to
remain
blank.
P
So
what
do
we
do
there
and
something
that
I
do
cover,
but
was
in
the
staff
memos
on
the
east
side,
where
there's
more
of
a
blank
wall
above
the
fullcycle,
we
have
contacted
the
city
arts
department
about
doing
a
mural
there.
You
might
have
noticed
an
illustration
of
an
elk
I
think
I
put
on
the
renderings
there.
So
that's
also
a
commitment
that
we've
made
to
provide
an
opportunity
for
a
local
artist
to
come
in.
You
know
and
share
share
some
artwork
for
that
for
the
neighborhood
as
as
yet
another
community
benefit.
P
K
L
P
I'm
not
gonna,
commit
to
myself
going
up
there
and
drawing
something,
but
if
you
know
we're
kind
of
leaving
it
up
to
the
arts
department,
you
know
if
they
for
some
reason
want
to
drop.
You
know,
drop
that
opportunity.
I
can't
guarantee.
You
know
there
will
be
art
there,
but
we
that's
a
commitment
that
we
made
to
pursue.
Do
not
need.
P
F
L
I'm
worried
that
you
take
that
encouragement
and
you
go
for
it
and
then
the
city
doesn't
follow
through
and
then
you
don't
do
anything
because
you
feel
you
have
done
your
part
and
you're
not
required
to
do
any
further,
whereas
you
committing
to
doing
working
the
city
plan.
But
if
it
fails
using
your
own
creativity
to
locate
muralist
who
can
provide
art
for
these
walls
that
will
be
I.
Think
shockingly
apparent
and
bare
to
anyone
on
Pearl.
So.
O
K
So
I'm
just
learn
to
quickly
touch
on
parking,
so
I
think
it
was
13
standard,
tight
spaces.
One
compact
we
already
talked
on
the
about
the
Auto
elevator
and
then
it's
also
in
cages
and
in
the
bed-
and
you
mentioned
the
NPP
to
the
north,
so
I
guess
I
was
just
curious.
You
know.
Do
you
first
see
some
of
these
units
having
more
than
one
car
and
if
so,
do
you
imagine
that
they
and
forgive
me,
I'm
totally
forgetting
and
should
remember,
but
do
you
picture
them
trying
to
get
a
permit
under
the
NPP?
K
K
F
O
O
D
C
Other
questions
all
right
great,
thank
you
to
Planning
Board
in
the
applicant
for
that
colloquy
I'm,
gonna
turn
it
over
to
Sloan,
I'm,
sorry,
I'm,
gonna
turn
over
to
Jean
Gatz,
our
moderator
and
Jean.
If
you
can
handle
the
public
comment
portion
of
this
public
hearing
each
member,
the
public
who
wants
to
speak
to
this
item
will
get
three
minutes.
C
B
Correct
thanks
Carmen,
so
for
folks,
just
as
a
reminder,
because
I
think
some
folks
have
come
onto
the
meeting
come
into
the
meeting
after
original
instructions
before
we
don't
have
a
registration
for
open
and
public
comment
for
this
item.
But
you
can
indicate
that
you
would
like
to
participate
by
the
raised
hand.
Function
the
raised
hand.
Function
is
in
the
participant
box,
and
I
will
also
have
to
ask
for
folks
that
want
to
speak.
B
H
E
Could
I
just
jump
in
and
say
that
we
I
don't
know
just
in
case
some
planning
board
members
didn't
notice,
we
were
sent
and
all
correspondences
PDF
on
the
website
that
has
a
couple
of
presentations
that
the
public
who's
gonna,
be
speaking
to
us,
sent
in
advance
and
those
aren't
allowed
to
be
shown
during
the
meeting.
But
if
planning
board
members
want
to
bring
those
up,
it
might
be
nice
to
look
at
what
that.
Well,
the
public
member
is
speaking.
B
H
I'll
just
quickly
mention
that
the
participant
Laurie
hunter
has
mentioned.
She
can't
raise
hands
so
I'll.
Leave
that
to
you
to
consider
okay,
I'd
like
to
address
the
concept
of
the
interface
zone
in
which
this
development
sits.
This
feature
of
downtown's
called
out
in
the
urban
design
guidelines
and
it
urges
that
new
development
in
this
zone
transition
with
sensitivity
to
the
adjacent
residential
use
as
planned.
This
building's
Northside
is
an
unbroken
wall.
100
feet
wide
38
feet
tall,
just
15
feet
off
the
alley.
H
The
practical
reality
is
that
the
alley
residents
will
lose
significant
sunlight
with
total
loss
of
warning
Sun
for
most
of
the
year
for
the
South
windows
of
1722
and
1728
spruce
in
the
weeks
around
the
solstice.
Even
at
noon,
the
second-floor
windows
of
the
resident
adjacent
to
the
north
will
be
90
percent
shaded.
This
alley
is
icy
and
winter.
As
designed,
the
shadow
of
the
building
will
cover
the
alley
completely
from
September
30th,
until
March
13th
increasing
the
setback
to
30
feet
will
add
52
days
of
sunlight
to
the
alley
floor
in
winter
months.
H
Next,
the
current
plan
only
allows
a
50-foot
long
strip
for
all
garage
access
and
standing
traffic
behind
the
buildings.
One
large
vehicle
blocks
this
alley.
Chris
Russell
mentioned
the
cueing
analysis.
This
analysis
neglects
the
fact
that
there
will
be
14
new
units
all
needing
to
be
served
by
Amazon
UPS
FEDEX
US
Postal
Domino's,
all
of
whom
will
likely
choose
the
alley
over
double
parking
on
Pearl
Street,
add
friends
of
the
residents
stopping
by
and
the
occasional
rubra
pickup,
and
you
have
an
ally
that
will
be
oversubscribed.
H
A
30
foot
setback
would
allow
1737
pearl
to
have
the
benefits
that
1637
pearl
enjoys
with
its
ample
room
for
short-term
parking.
The
3d
renderings
of
this
property
show
it's
significantly
bulkier
than
Jason
Searle
streets
structures.
Pardon
me
by
pushing
the
size
to
the
limit.
The
applicants
have
induced
the
need
for
a
car
elevator,
because
there
isn't
enough
room
for
a
ramp.
I
suggest
this
building
has
room
to
shrink
by
15
feet
in
the
north/south
dimension.
Consider
that
the
front
condominiums
on
the
third
floor
each
have
500
more
square
feet
than
my
adjacent
four-bedroom
house.
H
This
building
pushes
a
size
limit
in
every
dimension
and
has
three
stories
or
two
are
preferred
by
development
standards.
What
the
design
lacks
is
compromise
with
its
surroundings.
This
is
a
case
where
less
could
be
more
in
the
same
building.
Nudged
back
10
or
15
feet
on
top
of
the
minimum
setback
would
better
respect
the
intent
of
the
interface
zone
and
would
be
a
better
long-term,
long-term
addition
to
downtown.
Thank
you.
B
Q
So,
with
my
time,
I'd
like
to
build
on
Ray's
points
about
the
transition
zone
and
I
want
to
thank
those
of
you.
Who've
really
asked
great
questions
about
this.
I
felt
like
this
zone
has
really
meant
nothing
through
this
process.
It
makes
me
sad
not
just
for
myself,
but
for
the
city,
the
developers
and
and
snap
keep
talking
about
how
the
building
supports
and
respects
the
neighborhood,
and
they
have
made
minor
adjustments,
but
there
are
really
really
really
important
concerns
that
remain
about
noise,
exhaust,
commercial
access
and
shadows.
Q
Please
don't
be
swayed
by
these
minor
adjustments
when
these
really
big
questions
remain.
John
also
noted
the
precedent-setting
nature
of
this.
The
building's
neighbors
will
develop
and
asking
this
project
to
be
really
responsive
to
the
neighborhood
in
this
zone
will
better
ensure
that
those
future
developments
will.
If
we
let
this
go
now,
the
whole
block
is
gone
and
others
in
similar
situations
across
the
city
are
gone.
So
a
central
requirement
of
this
zone
is
to
discourage
adverse
impacts
from
noise,
night
lighting
and
commercial
service
areas
on
adjacent
neighborhoods.
Q
The
only
mention
about
adjustments
in
the
document
is
to
require
after-hours
deliveries
in
the
alley.
It's
hard
to
imagine
how
that's
really
sort
of
discouraging
adverse
impacts.
I
also
want
to
say,
I,
think
the
packet
is
knit
a
disingenuous.
They
show
pictures
of
adjacent
neighborhoods,
but
their
neighbors,
but
they're,
not
the
actual
alley.
Neighbors
in
the
PowerPoint
I
sent
you,
you
can
see
the
Stars
which
are
the
actual
alley,
neighbors
and
then
I
thought.
Q
Well,
maybe
they
don't
think
there's
adverse
impacts,
but
in
the
document
itself
they
said
that
they
designed
the
residential
units
on
the
second
and
third
floors
to
separate
them
from
noise
and
exhaust
they're
worried
about
separating
their
residential
units
from
noise
and
exhaust.
But
we've
never
heard
that
never
heard
that
as
related
to
the
neighbors
I
also
want
to
bring
in
parking.
Thank
you,
Lisa,
for
bringing
this
up.
I
actually
haven't
thought
about
this
till
now,
but
I
didn't
think
they'd
be
eligible
for
the
MPP,
but
they
on
were
squeezed
to
the
limit.
Q
I
already
sometimes
bought
Park
two
blocks
from
home.
This
would
represent
a
hundred
and
fifty
percent
increase
in
those
trying
to
squeeze
on
our
block
for
parking,
and
that's
especially
gonna,
be
the
case.
Like
John,
you
said
you
notice,
they're
gonna
charge
a
fee
for
parking
at
the
apartments
you
can
get
an
in
PP
permit
for
like
20
bucks
a
year,
who's
gonna
pay
a
fee
for
an
elevator
that
goes
up
down
up
down
when
you
can
buy
an
MPP
for
20
dollars
a
year
would
be
a
nightmare
for
those
of
us
living
next
floor.
Q
So
I
don't
know
how
my
time
is
doing
I'm
not
watching
I
have
33
seconds.
Let
me
also
say
that
another
consideration
is
design
sensitivity.
Please
have
a
look
at
the
PowerPoint.
If
you,
you
know
the
title
9
building
it
is
responsive.
It
is
responsive
in
scale
and
design
in
mass
to
the
neighborhood.
This
building
is
just
simply
not.
Please
don't
be
swayed
again
by
minor
adjustments
that
they've
done
to
respond
respond
quote-unquote
to
the
neighbors.
There
is
a
lot
more
work
to
be
done
to
really
respect
the
fact
that
this
is
a
transitional
zone.
G
K
G
Sub
Lin,
we
can
hear
you,
okay,
yeah
I.
Don't
see
any
reason
that
this
project
should
be
three
stories:
that's
not
allowed
and
the
city
shouldn't
be
allowing
it.
We
have
an
affordable
housing
crisis.
Audio
team
is
on
the
list
of
people.
Here
would
better
Boulder.
They
want
more
density.
Well,
they
want
more
density
of
these
high-end
places
like
this,
because
this
is
driving
up
the
cost
of
housing
in
Boulder
and
increasing
dynamically.
The
demand
for
lower
end
housing
for
affordable
housing.
G
So
when
you
bring
the
thing
to
two
stories,
you
can
set
back
the
second
story,
and
you
can
also
avoid
the
car
elevator,
which
is
another
expense
that
drives
up
the
cost
of
housing.
Once
again,
all
these
high-end
elements
drive
up
the
cost
of
land
and
the
cost
of
housing
in
Boulder,
and
then
the
Planning
Board
scrambles
around
to
accommodate
all
of
the
people
that
can
afford
to
be
here,
and
that
includes
my
favorite
store
top
hat
wears
top
hat.
Is
there
space
for
top
hat
on
the
body?
Chris?
G
Are
you
gonna
put
top
hat
back
in
there,
because
I
like
that
store
I?
Put
my
little
green
squidgy
things
that
I
clean
my
dishes
with
there
and
the
the
charm
of
Boulder
is
gone.
You
know,
Harmon,
are
you
gonna
put
the
integral
center
in
one
of
these
businesses?
On
the
bottom
floor,
are
you
gonna
put
Richard
Freeman
yoga
from
21st
and
pearl?
What
happened
to
you
know?
You're
gonna
have
another
high-end
restaurant
on
the
bottom
and
we
can't
even
have
restaurants
anyway
and
in
the
winter.
G
G
The
elevator
for
the
cars
can
have
the
ramp
if
you're
doing
two
storeys,
that's
a
an
energy
expense.
No
one
brought
that
up
here,
we're
paying
electric
bills
for
cars
to
be
elevated
up
and
down
to
save
space.
No,
this
is
just
driving
up
the
expense.
All
those
people
that
are
renting
a
car
space
are
gonna,
be
paying
through
the
nose
to
have
their
car
space
and
their
elevator.
G
Let's
see
as
far
as
the
public
space
in
the
center,
you
can
probably
increase
that
when
you've
got
two
levels
and
that
public
space,
if
it's
going
to
be
used
up
with
dining
well
I
can't
afford
to
dine
out
I
I
live
in
Boulder.
You
know,
I
have
to
pay
my
property
tax.
That's
going
up
all
the
time
from
these
high-end
developments,
cut
it
down
to
stories.
B
R
Thanks
I'm
a
Whittier
resident,
my
wife
and
I
live
two
blocks
away
from
the
site
with
our
two
young
kids.
We
walked
on
the
uppers
every
evening.
I
wanted
to
first
compliment
the
development
and
the
design
team,
I
think
they've
done
a
great
job,
both
aesthetically
with
the
building
and
also
functionally
with
the
building.
I.
R
Think
the
center
courtyard
is
an
excellent
design
feature
and
a
really
welcome
addition
to
East
pearl
similar
to
what
we
see
at
seventh
and
Pearl,
with
spruce,
confections
I
think
it's
you
know,
potentially
gonna
create
a
very
nice
base
to
gather
outside
there
the
third
floor.
It
looks
like
it's
been
set
back
pretty
well
from
the
street
and
is
not
nearly
as
visible
from
the
street
and
I.
Think.
That's
a
that's
a
very
nice
feature.
R
B
Thank
You
Zach
next
up
is
crystal
gray,
I.
N
S
Great
okay,
yeah
I'm
back
after
a
year
off
not
being
able
to
address
the
board,
so
I
live
within
600
feet
of
the
project
and
receive
notice
of
the
project.
It's
unfortunate
that
notice.
This
only
sent
a
property
owner
surrenders
in
the
residential
zone
as
well
as
reducing
the
commercial
zone
receives
no.
No
yes,
I
know
you're.
Aware
of
this.
Please
advocate
to
changing
this.
S
I
must
also
say
it
seems
inequitable
and
an
applicant
make
to
make
a
pre-loaded
visual
application,
but
a
resident
cannot
I
am
in
support
of
mixed
use
at
this
site,
including
residential.
This
block
on
Pearl
has
no
residential
it'd,
be
an
asset,
as
was
the
retail
I
love
living
a
block
from
East
pearl
and
do
much
my
shopping
eating
drinking
in
the
area
and
I
hope
they
attract
good
retail
and
I
welcome
new
neighbors.
S
So
the
biggest
issue
with
this
project
or
the
modifications
have
been
requested,
including
the
third
third
storey
step
back
from
Pearl
the
setback
of
15
feet
to
zero
on
the
third
level
and
two
stories
instead
of
three
or
three
stories.
Instead
of
two
which
drive
the
Manson
scale
and
impact
properties
to
the
north,
these
modifications
create
incompatibilities
with
the
interface
guidelines,
as
well
as
lack
of
medium
side,
review
criteria,
9
2,
14,
f,
I,
or
one
that
addresses
building
height
mass
scale,
etc.
S
The
large
heating
and
cooling
equipment
at
additional
height
and
do
not
meet
9
214
as
11
or
x1,
which
sets
buildings,
minimize
or
mitigate
energy,
use,
support
on-site
renewable
energy
generation
in
our
energy
management
systems,
we're
in
a
climate
crisis.
Let's
take
action
on
this
for
every
site
review.
Here's!
S
What
I
would
do
I
grant
the
requested
setback
reduction
in
the
front,
but
transfer
it
to
the
back
and
reconned
reduce
the
third
floor
by
five
feet:
make
it
smaller,
I
transfer
the
requested
setback
of
the
interior
side
effects
from
15
feet
to
zero
same
thing
transferred
to
the
back.
So
you
can
see
what
I'm
doing
I'm
trying
to
reduce
the
impact
to
the
neighbors
across
the
alley.
The
heating
and
cooling
equipment
should
not
be
on
the
roof.
S
It
should
be
replaced
by
PV
if
by
previous
reference
or
transferred
to
the
ground,
like
the
project
in
the
1600
block
of
Perl.
And
finally,
if
you
only
allow
two
storeys
problems
will
be
lessened.
The
design
would
be
better
with
more
compatible
materials.
What
exists
on
East
Pearl.
Yes,
these
pearl
has
character,
but
I'm
not
sure
it
is
Mike
Spector
stucco,
and
you
should
also
recommend
that
the
city
manager
not
allow
the
applicant
to
buy
out
of
the
second
10
percent
of
inclusionary
housing
requirement.
S
You
know
very
well
that
Planning
Board
cannot
mandate
date
this,
but
you
can
add
this
to
an
emotion.
It's
just
a
suggestion
to
the
manager
and
no
one
should
be
excluded
from
living
downtown
in
affordable
housing.
Finally,
they
interface
zone
in
d2
zones
were
a
result
of
the
downtown
Alliance,
which
was
the
community
process
and
the
80s
that
led
to
the
downtown
sounds
1
through
5.
It
was
highly
negotiated
on
where
density
should
be
and
how
zones
a
budding
neighborhood
should
be
treated.
So
good
luck,
I
hope,
I
was
under
three
minutes.
B
Almost
thank
you
Thank
You,
crystal
okay.
Is
there
anyone
else
who
would
like
to
address
the
board
about
this
item
I'm,
seeing
no
more
raised
hands
just
as
a
reminder,
the
race
you
can
raise
hands
from
the
participant
box
which
can
be
found
on
the
menu
by
hovering
over
the
top
or
the
bottom
of
your
screen
and
on
the
participant
icon.
When
the
box
opens,
you
can
see
the
raised
hand
button
at
the
bottom
Gina.
M
N
Thank
you
I'll,
be
brief,
but
appreciate
the
time
I'll
just
echo
a
couple
of
comments
that
have
been
made
about
the
interface
zone
and
specifically,
there
was
a
comment
that
Sloane
had
made
to
start
with
the
guidelines
where
there's
a
required
special
sensitivity
to
the
adjacent
residential
area
and
I.
Think
that's
that's
my
main
question
as
a
resident
across
the
alley
from
this
proposed
development
is
what
what
evidence
of
special
sensitivity
is
there
in
this
proposed
development.
N
I
think
the
exchange
between
Sarah
and
Chris,
with
the
balloon
analogy,
was
indicative,
where
all
of
the
modifications
are
geared
toward
increasing
the
square
footage
for
the
benefit
of
the
development,
with
an
eye
toward
economics
and
given
its
location
in
the
interface
zone
and
and
what
Sloane
said
to
start
I
would
just
encourage
the
board
to
recognize
the
fact
that
there
is
an
impact
on
the
adjacent
homes
here
in
the
community
and
that
it's
important
to
consider
that
as
this
projects
evaluated.
So
thank
you.
J
J
We
don't
currently
offer
any
project
products
specifically
for
downtown
residents
for
overnight
parking
in
our
garages.
I
wanted
to
clarify
that
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
I
understood
the
question
about
the
NTP,
so
this
particular
property
is
not
located
within
the
Whittier
NPP.
So
our
resident
of
this
building
wouldn't
be
eligible
to
apply
to
park
in
the
Whittier
NPP.
So
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
both
of
those
were
clear.
Okay,.
C
Thank
you
very
much
for
that
clarification.
That's
really
important
to
correct
that
all
right!
Well,
this
is
the
the
portion
of
meeting
where
Planning
Board
deliberates
after
hearing
all
the
presentations
in
the
public
comment,
but
it's
also
no.3
and
everybody's
been
sitting
in
their
chairs
for
over
two
hours,
so
I'm
going
to
call
a
break
till
8:10,
we'll
be
back
in
seven
minutes.
L
Would
just
like
to
make
sure
the
solar
shadow
and
design
components
are
thoroughly
walkthrough
tech
Docs?
Now
more
than
ever,
if
we
really
have
short
staffing
situations,
this
is
a
to
be
a
significant
development
for
Pearl,
Street
I.
Think
a
positive
one.
I'd
lament
the
situation
for
the
folks
who
live
behind
Pearl
Street,
but
did
you
live
behind
Pearl
Street?
That
was
always
the
case,
so
I'm,
but
I
want
to
make
sure
that
the
everything
is
done
to
conform
to
what's
required.
C
Yeah
Peter
I
I
want
to
direct
you
and
everyone
else
to
the
conditions
of
approval
and
condition.
One
is
the
applicant
shall
ensure
that
the
development
should
be
in
compliance
with
all
plans
prepared
by
the
applicant.
That
goes
on
and
condition.
Number
two
H
is
a
detailed
shadow
analysis
to
ensure
compliance
with
the
city,
solar
access
requirements,
so
if
they
don't,
if
they
submit
plans
that
are
not
in
compliance
with
what
we've
seen
or
failed
to
show,
the
shadow
analysis
is
in
compliance
with
solar
access
requirements
and
they
won't
be
approved
at
Tech
Talk.
M
I
will
reference
a
9-2,
14,
H,
f,
Roman,
numeral,
small
one
on
building
design,
the
building
height
mass
scale
orientation
are
compatible
with
the
existing
character
of
the
area
or
the
character
established
by
adopted
design
guidelines
or
plans
for
the
area.
Since
the
use
table
is
very
clear,
d2
has
a
maximum
number
of
storeys
of
two,
and
this
is
three
stories
and
those
that
third
story
does
create
a
real
problem
for
it's,
not
just
people
who
live
on
the
other
side
of
the
alley.
M
M
I'm
also
concerned
about
the
solar
access,
the
violation
or
that
it
doesn't
meet
the
Land
Use
Code,
section
9
917
D
1
B,
which
is
about
solar
access.
Specifically
no
person
shall
erect
an
object
or
structure
on
any
other
lot.
That
would
shade
a
protected
lot
in
solar
access
area
to
a
greater
degree
than
the
lot
would
be
shaded
by
a
solar
fence,
25
feet
in
height
between
solanine,
on
a
clear
winter
solstice
day
so
from
I'm
also
concerned.
M
I
also
think
it
doesn't
meet
the
site
criteria,
site
review
criteria,
9
2,
14,
H,
f,
Roman,
numeral,
11,
building,
design,
livability
and
relationship
to
existing
or
proposed
surrounding
area.
Buildings
should
minimize
or
mitigate
energy
use
and
support
on-site,
renewable
energy
generation
or
energy
management
systems
and
I
didn't
get
any
sense
from
the
proposal
that
there
was
any
minimizing
or
mitigating
of
energy
use
on
the
site.
So
those
are
my
three
concerns
specific
to
the
site.
Criteria
and
I
will
have
concerns
than
key
issue
number
two
as
well.
Okay,.
C
M
D
I
think
Sarah
did
a
beautiful
job
of
getting
into
the
chapter
and
verse
of
the
details
of
her
concerns.
My
primary
concern
is
that
I
think
this
is
a
reasonable
project.
The
long
pearl
but
I
think
that
the
impact
in
the
alley
and
to
the
north
is
on
the
residential
neighborhood
is
unacceptable.
So
I
don't
think
that
the
requirement
to
to
deal
with
adverse
impacts
from
shade
and
poor
building
design
have
been
met
in
on
the
Northern
Exposure.
D
C
E
Well,
I
will
try
to
address
some
of
those
concerns
that
John
you
and
Sarah,
both
both
expressed
and
then,
of
course,
in
the
second
key
issue,
will
probably
have
a
very
in-depth
discussion
on
the
interface
areas,
so
I'm
sure
we're
trying
to
say
that
the
key
issue
number
two.
So
when
I
go
through
the
the
the
site
review
criteria,
I
I'm,
looking
at
it
through
the
lens
of
business,
Pearl
Street,
it
is
right
in
the
center
of
Boulder
and
thing.
E
E
So
when
I
think
about
the
impact
on
surrounding
areas,
you
know
you
know
that
are
near
this
regional
business.
I.
Think
of
the
housing
is
kind
of
moderating
some
of
that
by
creating
some
nice
human
life
in
that
area.
So
I'm
but
yeah
I
thought
that
from
a
BBC
P
standpoint
it
was
fine
from
site
design,
I
love
the
courtyard
there's
open
space
considerations
done.
E
There
is
green
green
planned
for
the
setbacks
in
both
the
front
and
the
back.
So
that's
I
think
that's
gonna
help
and
some
landscaping
circulation
I'm
glad
we
got
that
that
clarification
on
the
MPP
I
think
that
is,
you
know.
It
is
important
that
a
lot
of
thought
went
into
accessing
that
elevator
a
little
bit
uncharted
territory
for
this
type
of
look
and
size
of
the
development.
E
But
it's
interesting
because
of
course
it
pulls
the
cars
off
the
street
and
and
and
gets
them
kind
of
out
of
the
way
and
not
not
necessarily
competing
with
the
neighbors.
So
from
that
standpoint,
I
think
it's
it's
it's
nice
that
that
was
done
so
parking
so
yeah
that
that
covers
parking
and
livability
in
relationship
to
the
existing
proposed
surrounding
area.
Again.
E
E
What
level
of
energy
efficiency
and
whether
we're
going
to
whether
there
are
opportunities
for
solar
and
things
like
that
might
be
worth
discussing
that
a
little
bit
I,
don't
know
that
a
elevator
is
going
to
be
an
enormous
amount
of
energy
usage.
There
was
a
huge
amount
of
technical
information
provided
to
us
about
that
elevator,
so
I
could
probably
go
in
and
find
the
wattage
of
that,
but
yeah
they
might
might
be
a
little
bit
of
a
discussion
on
that.
E
Let
me
see,
but
I
do
think
that
in
general
this
is
an
area
for
mixed
use.
It's
an
area
to
take
advantage
of
it's
running
on
Pearl
Street,
and
so
there
is
a
trade-off
between
being
able
to
just
have
zero
impact
on
residential
neighborhoods
nearby
versus
what
is
appropriate
for
this
particular
block
and
I
I
do
think
it's
a
it's
quite
a
beautiful
design.
K
Yeah,
so
thank
you
so
much
Charles
and
others
for
the
clarification
on
the
parking.
I
think
that
there's
always
kind
of
externalities
parking.
So
it's
good
to
know
what
is
allowed
and
what
it's
not
I
appreciate
that
too.
Second
one,
some
other
folks
have
said
I
like
the
site
design
I'm,
not
as
troubled
by
the
third
story,
especially
with
that
kind
of
layer,
cake
setback,
I
think
that's
a
really
elegant
solution.
At
the
same
time,
I
am
there's
no
way
that
it's
going
to
not
affect
neighbors
across
the
alley,
I
sort
of
wish.
K
K
Although
I
appreciate
that
cuts
into
the
value
of
the
space
and
the
size
of
the
units,
I
also
would
love
to
see,
and
perhaps
something
that
has
been
considered,
but
on
that
big
flat
roof
I
wish
there
were
solar
panels
and
I
realize
you
know
we
have
to
take
all
that
into
consideration,
but
I
think
that's
a
selling
feature
I
mean
I,
think
that's
exciting
and
I'd
love
to
see
more
of
that
integrated
and
looking
over
my
notes.
I
also
really
appreciated
all
the
trees.
The
bike
racks
on
the
street
side,
I
thought
were
nice.
K
The
you
design,
love
the
courtyard
I
like
the
idea
of
trying
to
keep
it
open
and
then,
if
there
are
major
issues
we
can
deal
with
it,
then
if
there's
a
way
to
do
that,
and
then
I
also
really
appreciate
that
it
has
that
mix
juice
and
retail,
especially
on
the
Pearl
Street
side.
And
it's
not
just
you
know
a
block
that
people
you
know
can't
get
into
that
building.
So
that's
my
feedback.
C
C
L
L
B
I
C
C
C
38
foot
zone
and
reducing
the
the
building
from
a
three-story
building
to
a
two-story
building
might
have
no
impact
whatsoever
on
the
the
actual
Balkan
mass
of
the
building
could
still
come
in
by
right
at
two
storeys
of
38
feet
and
I
sympathise
with
neighbors
across
the
alleyway
I'm
satisfied
with
the
way
that
the
building
is
articulated
on
the
north
side,
as
well
as
the
adherence
to
the
15
foot
setback.
As
far
as
the
solar
issue
that
was
brought
up.
C
If
it
fails
to
meet
the
solar
fence
requirements,
it
can't
be
approved
at
the
way
that
it's
been
proposed.
It
doesn't
encroach
on
the
solar
fence
and
so
I,
don't
know
how
we
can
apply
a
standard
that
is,
is
not
written
in
the
code
when
there's
one
that
is
written
in
the
code
that
the
application
needs
and
finally,
with
the
issue
of
minimization
of
energies.
If
we
do
get
to
a
point
where
we're
recommending
approval.
E
Yes,
so
when
Lisa
mentioned
wedding,
cakes
I
just
had
to
I
realize
that
I
forgot
to
mention
that
that
is
a
great
concept
for
reducing
the
kind
of
visual
height
perception,
but
sometimes
it
can
also
create
kind
of
not
so
pleasant
overall
designs
and
I.
E
That
I
think
the
side
off
the
side,
setbacks
being
waved
are
actually
results
in
a
better
design
and
then
finally,
I
was
just
gonna
mention
with
I.
Don't
know
if
anybody
on
the
board
and
stop
more
about
crystals
comment
on
inclusionary
housing.
When
we
get,
let
me
get
cash
in
lieu.
It
does
a
lot
to
help
our
affordable
housing
program
in
Boulder.
So
I
tend
to
just
kind
of
realize
that
those
those
mechanisms
have
been
put
in
place
to
the
best
of
our
ability.
It's
always
nice.
E
When
we
see
on-site,
affordable,
I,
wasn't
sure
what
was
meant
by
the
additional
ten
percent.
I
know
that
the
you
know,
if
you
read
through
things
that
that
the
amount
the
incentives
can
change
based
on
the
size
of
the
project,
but
I
thought
that,
with
this
being
over
eight
units
that
it's
a
clearly
in
the
25
percent,
inclusionary
housing
fee
or
25
percent
homicide,
affordable,
so
I
I
wasn't
sure.
If,
if
I
understand
fully
what
the
ten
percent
was
I
don't
know.
If
anybody
knows
that
or
staff.
I
I'm
gonna
try
to
answer
it
and
I
haven't
actually
reviewed
the
standards
very
recently,
but
I
think
what
crystal
was
referring
to.
It
was
at
least
until
the
last
update.
There
was
a
standard
in
the
code
that
said
10%
of
the
required.
Affordable
housing
requirement
has
to
be
provided
on
site,
but
then
there's
a
way
through
a
city
manager
rule
to
provide
all
of
it
off-site
and
it's
and
it's
approved
by
staff
that
way
and
I.
I
M
I
just
want
to
respond
to
something
Hartmann
that
you
said
about
getting
rid
of
the
third
floor.
That's
actually
not
my
recommendation.
My
recommendation
and
I'm
gonna
have
to
figure
out
with
hellas
help
how
to
propose
it
is
to
request
a
setback
on
that
northern
end.
On
the
third
floor.
Okay,
I,
don't
have
a
problem
with
it
being
three
storeys
I
have
a
problem
with
the
mass,
the
mass
on
the
north
end
and
it's
I
don't
think
it's
appropriate,
given
the
interface
zone,
so
I
just
wanted
to
clarify,
know
what
I
was
trying
to
say.
M
K
I
just
wanted
to
add
on
do
a
couple
things
focus.
It
said
so
in
addition
to
being
wired
for
PDC
I'd
love
to
see,
but
if
it
works
to
be
wiring
for
electric
cars.
So
for
that
to
be
the
case
throughout
the
parking
structure
and
then
I
loved.
What
David
said
about
the
wedding?
Cakes
that
can
be
a
bit
of
a
figurative,
so
I
should
have
said
elegant,
modern
way,
it's
very
pretty
from
the
pro
Street
side
and
then
and
then
just
off
of
crystals
comment.
