A. General Regulations: In addition to any other requirements of this code, development in the PI zone shall also be subject to the following standards:
1. Building Materials: Any building erected on the property shall have an exterior wall finish of brick, stone, stucco, or other stucco appearing material. If the roof is pitched, then shakes, architectural shingles or roofing tiles shall be used but under no circumstance shall metal be used. Existing buildings with a brick exterior located between Harrison Boulevard and Adams Avenue and 20th Street to 30th Street are:
a. prohibited from painting or covering exterior brick except as provided in Subsection b.
b. painting or sealing of unpainted brick may be approved by the planning commission if an evaluation is submitted to the planning commission that has been reviewed by the director providing information that:
(1) painting or sealing of the brick is required to provide a protective surface that will limit the continued erosion of the brick;
(2) the paint or sealant used will preserve the brick; and
(3) the color of the paint or sealant will match the existing brick color.
2. Minimum Design Details: The buildings in the development shall be designed to provide architectural relief that creates variety, interest and unity in the theme of the development. This may be achieved with various combinations of the following methods: windows along the front of the building, awnings, varying roof planes, covered entryways, colonnades, quoins, etc. Conversions of single-family homes into any of the other permitted or unconditional uses shall not be allowed, except conversions for wedding chapels or daycare centers are allowed if the entire project takes on a residential style theme that ties the existing architecture to the other buildings in the development.
3. Colors: The colors used throughout the development shall add to the theme of the project and shall not bring undue attention to the development as compared to existing development in the area.
4. Shared Accessways and Parking: All development with multiple buildings shall have a shared access from the public street and shared on site parking. The shared parking shall be designed to create a unified circulation system.
5. Signage: Only one freestanding sign is allowed per lot and shall be a freestanding monument sign to identify the project. The freestanding monument sign shall not be taller than eight feet, shall be set back 10 feet from the property line abutting a public street and shall not exceed 50 square feet in size.

7. Utility Line Connections and Installations: All utility line connections and installations must be underground and rise within the building. Transformers, meters and similar apparatus must be at ground level or below with approved screening for ground level installation. Screening at ground level shall consist of plant material or architectural materials used in the development.
