portion of the roof, re-painting of the exterior of the building, and the addition of exterior
lighting and landscaping. No change to the existing building footprint, floor area, height,

shingles, wooden trellis fa�ade elements, and roof-mounted wall sign, with a new standing seam
metal roof with a tower element, new fascia and interior improvements, and an upgraded fa�ade
ineluding cement plaster walls, cement plaster and flagstone entry columns, and expansions
joints. Removal and re-installation of the existing wall sign is proposed for the tower element.
The building will be re-painted with a variety of earth tone colors to match the existing shopping
center. The Project also indudes installation of new ]andscaping and lighting at the building
entry. The proposed design will be consistent with architectural guidelines regarding
compatibility with surrounding architecture, and building, fa�ade and roof articulation. Thus, the
