Blakeney Commons Lot 3 site plan approved with landscape waiver and rooftop screening condition
Summary
The commission approved a 7,500 sq ft multi‑tenant building at Blakeney Commons Lot 3, granting a modified type‑C landscape buffer due to an existing sewer main and recommending HVAC screening concealed by a parapet or similar element.
The Planning Commission approved the Blakeney Commons Lot 3 site plan after staff recommended a modified landscape buffer and changes to rooftop equipment screening.
Staff described the proposed 7,500 sq ft multi‑tenant building and noted the northern property line could not meet the standard type‑C landscape buffer because of an existing sewer main; staff recommended a modified buffer similar to a nearby approval. Staff also recommended that rooftop HVAC equipment be concealed with a parapet rather than an exposed aluminum screen. "Staff would recommend that this product be concealed with a parapet wall or something that is, less obvious and blends in more with the building," staff said. The applicant requested the same waiver used on an adjacent parcel; commissioners agreed the modified approach was acceptable in this location and approved the site plan with the remaining CUD and staff comments.
What happens next: applicant to provide final revised landscaping and elevation details showing the agreed screening method and to comply with the remaining CUD comments prior to permit issuance.
