Applicable Ordinance Provisions: Central Mixed Use District Design Standards are found in Section 30-245 of the Zoning Ordinance. State Statute 62.23(5) requires the Plan Commission review the “location and architectural design of any public building.” Property Location and Background Information: The subject area consists of three parcels totaling 1.79 acres, with frontage on High Avenue, Pearl Avenue, and Market Street. The property located at 110 Pearl Avenue includes the GO Transit station and associated public parking area, while the vacant property to the west, included with this request, has access drives and public parking stalls utilized by the GO Transit station. The property located at 222 Pearl Avenue includes an office building.

Building Review Comprehensive Plan Land Use Recommendation Land Use 2040 Land Use Recommendation Center City ANALYSIS The site currently has an existing bus platform and bus driver support building, along with an office building (222 Pearl Avenue). GO Transit is proposing to demolish the existing office building and construct a new 1,515 sq. ft. restroom/waiting area building and bus platform with canopy. Applications which involve modifications to the physical configuration of a property (such as the creation of a new building or the demolition of an existing building) are subject to review by Plan Commission and Common Council. The following is the design theme for the Central Mixed Use District listed in the Exterior Design Standards ordinance: The design theme for the Central Mixed Use District is based on its historical, pedestrian-oriented development pattern that incorporates retail, residential, and institutional uses. Building orientation and character includes minimum setbacks at the edge of the sidewalk, multi-story structures, use of alleys for access, and on-street or other off-site parking. The design theme is Page 2 Item VII B – SAD & Arch. Building Review characterized by a variety of architectural styles popular at the time, including Italianate, Romanesque, and Neoclassical, in a 2- or 3-story format with office, storage, or residential located over commercial. The façades of these buildings have a traditional main street storefront appearance, are relatively small in scale, have street yard and side yard setbacks of zero feet, have prominent horizontal and vertical patterns formed by regularly spaced window and door openings, detailed cornice designs, rich detailing in masonry coursing, window detailing and ornamentation, and are predominately brick, stone, or wood. Exterior building materials are of high quality. Exterior appurtenances are minimal. Exterior colors are harmonious, simple, and muted. Exterior signage blends, rather than contrasts, with buildings in terms of coloring (complementary to building), location (on-building), size (small), and number (few). The restroom/waiting area building will have matching materials to the driver support building on the site. The building exterior will consist of red brick façade with beige metal siding. The new facility will also feature stone cladding at the primary public entrance to help as a visual way- finding marker. The new bus platform/canopy will replicate the existing platform area, with matching dark bronze metal roof and red face brick columns. Staff believes that the proposed restroom/waiting area building and bus platform designs will not have a negative impact on the surrounding area as the structures will be harmonious with the existing GO Transit station site. The proposed building and canopy include high quality exterior materials that match the existing building and canopy on the site.
