b. Lighting in connection with miscellaneous structures and street furniture should meet the guidelines <br />applicable to site, londscope and buildings. <br />No lights for accessory features are proposed. <br />Conclusions <br />Structure height, length, and setback requirements are in compliance with the Neighborhood Commercial <br />Center standards. <br />Landscaping is in compliance with all Tukwila Municipal Code standards. The City's Urban Environmentalist has <br />reviewed and approved proposed plant species, siting and materials to ensure appropriate spacing. The <br />perimeter landscaping follows a coherent design concept, which will soften the impact of the bus parking area <br />on surrounding properties and create a more pedestrian - friendly atmosphere along the adjacent streets. <br />Mechanical equipment is adequately screened and the screening material is in harmony with the overall design <br />scheme of the building. <br />No significant changes are proposed to the existing parking, lighting, or vehicular and pedestrian access. Those <br />changes that are proposed will work to improve pedestrian and vehicular circulation within the site itself and <br />provide enhanced lighting for employees onsite. <br />The renderings demonstrate a cohesive style and quality design with ample modulation, articulation, and <br />attention to detail. The color palette features neutral shades of tan with darker accent colors. Materials are <br />varied between roof, trim, and siding, adding some visual interest. The slanted roofline pitch provides a modern <br />look to an otherwise simple building, while keeping the visual impact on surrounding properties to a minimum. <br />Recommendations <br />Staff recommends the approval of the Design Review application and approval of modification from interior <br />parking lot landscaping requirements of TMC 18.52. <br />Informational Items <br />1.
