   ...
   COMMISSIONER ANDERSON SECONDED THE MOTION. ALL PRESENT VOTED IN FAVOR. THE MOTION CARRIED.
   ...
   Commissioner Anderson asked if the two buildings were identical.
   ...
   Commissioner Anderson commented that when the Wal-Mart subdivision was approved with the outlots facing into the parking lot, the Planning Commission had discussed the need for architectural treatment to the street side of the buildings to improve image on this critical entrance to Lindon.
   ...
   Commissioner Anderson expressed the opinion that the "wagon wheel window" and the cupola are both needed. He suggested that the gable be faced with the stucco system rather than the shingles.
   
   Chairman Sweeten commented that he feels strongest about continuing the gable all the way across and that this is the element that all of the Commissioners seem to agree on. He noted that he disagrees with the window and prefers the shingles. He observed that he likes the front of the building, but not the sides and back and feels that the front treatment should be carried all the way around the building. He noted that he has no opinion on the cupola but suggested that maybe it can be incorporated if the gable is carried through, but not otherwise. He expressed the opinion that the "wagon wheel window" does not complement the overall design.
   
   Commissioner Bryner observed that she would like a cupola added. She would like to see the gable roof carry all the way across, or if a false gable is used on both sides, a cupola on both ends. She would also like to see the timber corbels repeated on the back and sides also.
   ...
   Commissioner Anderson agreed that the window does not fit if the shingle treatment is kept. He suggested adding the window to the cupola.
   ...
   Commissioner Anderson commented that he had driven by this week to look at the site and observed that the rock was covered in weeds already.
   ...
   Commissioner Anderson asked if Wasatch Timber's site plan meets the City Engineer's approval. He explained that this ditch is an important feature of the regional storm water system and is used for linear detention.
   ...
   COMMISSIONER ANDERSON SECONDED THE MOTION. ALL PRESENT VOTED IN FAVOR, EXCEPT COMMISSIONER BRYNER WHO VOTED NAY. THE MOTION CARRIED.
   ...
   Commissioner Anderson asked if the residents on Lakeview have been shown the proposal.
   ...
   Commissioner Anderson commented that the property owners on the north side of Lakeview near State Street will be the most affected by this modification to the street. He pointed out that these homes have been bought as potential commercial development and this would take away their direct access to State Street. He suggested that it may affect the value of the property.
   ...
   Commissioner Anderson commented that the Commission usually does not give a full two years for a temporary use, but gives one year to determine if the business is going to stay and then may extend it if needed.
   ...
   Commissioner Anderson agreed, but cautioned that this is just a temporary situation. He will need a building as soon as possible.
   ...
   Commissioner Anderson declared a conflict of interest because his family owns the property on which this project is proposed. He noted that he would sit in on the conversation, but would not participate.
   ...
   Commissioner Anderson asked if there were any similar projects around that the Commissioners could visit.

   ...
   Commissioner Anderson observed that Heritage Court was required to put in a city street. He asked about Section 17.46.090(10)(d) and asked if a city street is needed to connect with other streets on the city's master plan. He also asked what the "City Standards and Specifications" are for driveways.
   ...

   Commissioner Anderson suggested putting planter boxes against the building to meet the landscaping requirements. Commissioner Nixon concurred with Commissioner Anderson and added that this will give Mr. Olsen's future tenant a better radius to get vehicles in and out of the bay doors.
