and south elevations.
4. Provide perspective renderings from both directions on the EC street, with and without
landscaping.
5. Provide specifications for proposed window glass. Show that VLT will not drop below
40% and VLR will not exceed 30%. Glass should be clear, without tint. If tinted glass is
proposed, provide a sample for review. Add the standard window glass note to the

6. Show the locations of all ground- and building -mounted equipment on the plans. Show
how visibility from the ECs will be eliminated.
7. Add the standard mechanical equipment note to the plan: 'Visibility of all mechanical

8. Provide a complete lighting plan with the final site plan.
9. Sign applications are required for all proposed signs. Provide with the sign applications a
sample of the color proposed for the signs.
10. The revised elevations presented in the meeting sufficiently address comments 1-3.
