18.12.150: ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW; REQUIRED WHEN:
Architectural approval shall be required for all applicable projects reviewed by the planning commission. (Ord. 1806 § 1, 1982: Ord. 1000 § 32.30(B), 1955)
18.12.160: ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW; SCOPE AND PROCEDURES:
   A.   All applications for the construction, reconstruction, moving, conversion, alteration or addition to any building or structure reviewed by the planning commission shall include a preliminary site plan and drawing showing the exterior elevation of all sides of a proposed building or structure, the types of materials and colors to be used, the signs to be displayed, the location of walls and fences (with height and construction materials indicated), the landscaping plan (including plant names), the exterior lighting standards and devices, and the plan for any grading.
   B.   The planning commission shall either approve, conditionally approve, or deny the architectural plans.
   C.   The approval, with or without conditions, or denial by the planning commission of an application for architectural approval shall be final unless, within ten (10) days from the date of action by the planning commission, the applicant or any other person shall appeal therefrom in writing to the city council. Such appeal shall be filed in writing with the city clerk on a form provided by the planning department, and shall indicate the grounds of the appeal. The city clerk shall schedule the appeal for a city council agenda, and the city council at its meeting shall uphold, modify or overrule the decision of the planning commission. The decision of the city council shall be final. (Ord. 1806 § 1, 1982: Ord. 1000 § 32.30(C), 1955)
18.12.170: ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW; CRITERIA:
   A.   The planning commission shall review the material submitted with the application, and specific aspects of design shall be examined to determine whether the proposed development is in conformity with the provisions of this chapter, and whether approval of the plan is in the best interest of the public health, safety and general welfare. It is intended that design submittals be compatible with the character of adjacent and surrounding developments, and that they be of comparable composition, materials, textures and colors.
   B.   Conformance will be evaluated based on consideration of the following:
      1.   Site layout, orientation, location of structures and relationship to one another, as well as open spaces and topography;
      2.   Harmonious relationship of building with existing and proposed adjoining developments;
      3.   Maximum height, area, setbacks and overall mass of buildings, as well as other structures such as walls, screens, towers or signs, and effective concealment of all mechanical equipment;
      4.   Harmony of construction materials and colors in relation to all exterior elevations;
      5.   Location and type of planting, with due regard for the preservation of specimen trees upon a site;
      6.   Design and appropriateness of signs in relation to the architectural style of the building;
      7.   Glazing or image reflective surfaces (specular reflectance) shall be limited to a maximum reflectance value of twenty five percent (25%). "Specular reflectance" means any mirror like reflection, as contrasted to diffused reflection from such surfaces as concrete or vegetation. (Ord. 1821 § 3, 1983: Ord. 1806 § 1, 1982: Ord. 1000 § 32.30(D), 1955)

   A.   The commission shall, in its rules of procedure, prescribe the form and scope of all petitions and applications provided for in this title, and of the accompanying data to be furnished, so as to assure the fullest practicable presentation of facts for proper consideration of the matter involved in each case, and for a permanent record thereof.
   B.   Any petition, as provided for in this title, shall include a verification by at least one of the petitioners, attested to before a notary public, or before the city clerk. (Ord. 1000 § 53.00, 1955)
