Board approves expanded patio and landscape plan for 2690 East Main
Summary
The board granted a certificate of appropriateness for an expanded front patio and a revised landscape plan for 2690 East Main to support a prospective plant-store tenant, subject to staff and landscape-consultant guidance on species selection.
Board members approved a certificate of appropriateness for an expanded front patio and the submitted landscape plan at 2690 East Main. Staff recapped ARB approval for the building renovation and reported that the applicant requested a larger front patio and plantings suitable for a prospective plant store tenant.
The city's landscape consultant advised staff that certain species listed on the plan (notably Green Giant arborvitae) were unsuitable for the location and recommended alternatives such as Emerald Green arborvitae and properly sized boxwood and hydrangea; staff and members supported the larger patio as a way to activate Main Street. The motion to grant a certificate of appropriateness passed on a roll-call vote.
