| Information |
| SUBJECT: |
| Approval of Conceptual Architecture for Native Grill and Wings restaurant, located at 11107 N. Oracle Road |
| RECOMMENDATION: |
| The Conceptual Design Review Board has recommended approval of the Conceptual Architecture, subject to the condition in Attachment 1. |
| EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: |
The purpose of this request is to consider Conceptual Architecture for the Native Grill and Wings restaurant proposed within Steam Pump Village. The site is located on the west side of Oracle Road, in front of Basis School (Attachment 2).
The project consists of an approximate 4,900 square foot restaurant and outdoor patio. The Site Plan conforms with the approved master site plan and therefore, this application is for Conceptual Architecture only. The Conceptual Architecture is provided as Attachment 3. The proposal has been reviewed and is in conformance with the Design Principles and Steam Pump Design Guidelines.
On June 22, 2016, the Conceptual Design Review Board recommended approval to the Town Council. |
| BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION: |
The proposed architecture represents a southwest contemporary design that incorporates desert colors and elements. The architecture features predominantly earth tone colors with metal roofing and awnings, brick and stone veneer. The proposed architecture incorporates materials and colors used within the overall Steam Pump Center.
The Design Principles require that all building facades be fully articulated. The proposed architecture meets this requirement through the use of several elements, including:
- Varied roof lines
- Wall articulation
- Material variation
- Color variation
- Roof cornicing
The proposed Conceptual Architecture has been reviewed and is in conformance with the Town’s Design Principles and Steam Pump Village Design Guidelines. A complete analysis is provided in Attachment 4.
Please note that a Conceptual Site Plan review is not required as the proposal is in substantial conformance with the approved development plan. As such, this agenda item is limited to architecture only. A copy of the overall site development plan and the Final Site Plan for Native are included for information as attachments 5 and 6, respectively.
Public Participation
Two neighborhood meetings were held. The first meeting was held on March 3, 2016, and was attended by six (6) interested residents. The second meeting was held on May 12, 2016, with nine (9) interested residents in attendance. Due to the close proximity of the Native and Freddy’s restaurants, both items were presented at the meetings. Comments from the residents focused primarily on the existing circulation issues, increase in traffic, lack of parking and alcohol sales. The items are addressed in greater detail with the Freddy’s Steakburger report and summarized below:
Existing circulation - To eliminate many of the existing circulation conflict points within the adjacent parking area, a new straight driveway will be constructed.
Increase in traffic - The construction of the new driveway and staggered pick up and drop off for the school will reduce impacts by the proposed restaurant.
Parking - The parking meets the standards specified in the Steam Pump Village PAD.
Alcohol Sales - Native Grill and Wing’s proposes to include alcohol as an ancillary use to the restaurant, similar to the existing Chili's. The restaurant will be required to obtain a liquor license to sell alcohol. That item will be brought to the Council at a future date.
The summary notes from the neighborhood meetings are provided on Attachment 7. Staff has not received any additional correspondence concerning the project.
Conceptual Design Review Board
The Conceptual Design Review Board considered the request on June 22, 2016, and has recommended approval of the applicant's proposal. The Conceptual Design Review Board staff report and draft minutes are provided as Attachment 8.
