K. 2016-572 100 Lake Forest Drive
Addition (kitchen renovation and expansion for freezer/cooler unit)
Submitted by Lake Forest Country Club
a) Staff notes the proposal includes removing the lower portion of the side
elevation gable detail and covering this architectural element with the
proposed flat roof addition. Staff questions the compatibility of the
proposed roof form with the existing roof line. Suggest lowering the
height of the addition to match the eave height of the gable form at the
side entry.
b) The extended flat roof and brick wall covering the gable end alters the
symmetry of the south elevation. The design standards indicate the
regulating lines of a building control the location of major features and
aid in composition. The proposed addition covering the gable end
obstructs the existing symmetry and composition.
c) The design standards for a large mass building type state the same roof
shape must be used throughout the building for all roofs except for
turrets, towers and other unique masses. Staff notes flat roofs currently
exist on the building; however, the proposed addition significantly
expands the existing flat roof mass.
d) Staff encourages the applicant to propose a revised design relocating the
freezer/cooler to the front and side of the existing kitchen to reduce the
length of the addition and maintain the existing gable roof form. The
applicant has indicated other options had been considered, but they
would not work operationally.
