Ms. Baker commented that the discussion of these items can take place under Other Board Business. CONSIDERATION OF THE MINUTES November 17, 2016, March 16, 2017 A couple of errors were noted regarding member attendance at the November & March meetings and the Board agreed to amend those minutes. Mr. Heath moved to approve the November and March minutes with the amendments, with a second by Mr. Perkinson. The Board Members unanimously approved the minutes with the amendments to both sets of minutes. AGENDA ITEMS Application for Certificate of Appropriateness 300 North Meridian Ms. Baker explained that this building is on the local historic register, and that 12 years ago, several of the tenant space facades were remodeled except for one space. The applicant, John 3 Page 1 of 3

Hopkins, is now proposing to remodel the final tenant space for consistency with the other spaces. Board feedback and questions: Mr. Larson asked if the building was listed on the historical register at the time of the previous remodels, Ms. Baker replied that it was. Mr. Gerstmann inquired as to whether this is the original construction, Ms. Baker replied that during the pre-application meeting for the proposal, she thought it was mentioned that it wasn t, but couldn t be certain. Mr. Anderson commented that it is possible no one really knows if it is the original construction. Mr. Anderson made a motion to approve the proposal as submitted, with a second by Mr. Heath. The Board Members voted, and the motion passed, 7-0. OTHER BOARD BUSINESS Trackside Pizza Restoration Mr. Anderson stated that he had received a comment that the materials being used on the restoration of the façade do not match the surround properties appropriately. Ms. Wals stated that she had pulled the permit and compared it to the design review application and that the elevations looked the same, but that it sounds like some different materials are being used other than what was discussed. Ms. Wals stated that staff will be looking into this. Mr. Anderson commented that the building looks nice, but that the materials are different. Living War Memorial Mr. Anderson stated that the structure known as the Living War Memorial should be listed on the historical register so that any future changes made to the structure will happen through the register. Mr. Anderson suggested that the Board nominate this structure to be listed on the register, while commenting on its historical significance. Mr. Larson asked how the Board would begin the process of nominating the structure to be listed, Ms. Baker responded that code states that the Board can nominate a building, take a vote and approve to begin the process. Ms. Baker explained that since this is a city-owned property, that staff would have to do some research and talk to other city staff to find out if there is support for a nomination. Board feedback and points of discussion: Current and possible future uses of the building Does the whole building need to be saved, or are there just parts of the building that need to be preserved for historical significance? The Board will discuss in greater detail when filling out the application what the defining characteristics of the building are An emphasis on the criteria on what the building means to the community, rather than the style of the building itself. Can the current structure be replaced with a new structure, and still maintain the historical significance? 4 Page 2 of 3

Seek pre-approval of other city staff and City Council if possible before going the application process Ms. Baker commented that the Parks Department has been working with a consultant regarding changes to the building that would make it more accessible and usable. Ms. Baker suggested that staff go back and talk to other City staff regarding potential future uses for the building, possibly schedule a walk-through of the building for the Board, and to research the criteria for listing the building. The Board reached a consensus to have city staff move forward with preliminary research, and then to bring this back before the Board at a future meeting. Ms. Wals mentioned that Newell Hunt Furniture is due to have a pre-application meeting with city staff to replace their awnings, which have been deemed hazardous, so that application could come before the Board soon. Ms. Wals commented that there hasn t been very much interest in the stakeholders group for the Downtown Design Guidelines update, and that if any Board members know of someone who might be interested, to please pass that information along to staff. ADJOURNMENT The meeting was adjourned at 4:46 p.m. 5 Page 3 of 3

The South Hill Rotary Club is intending to provide a financial contribution towards the new off leash dog park and has proposed the facility to be named South Hill Rotary Dog Park at Rainer Woods. SITE MAP 7

PROPOSAL INFORMATION Applicant: Location: Zoning: Staff Planner: South Hill Rotary Club Rainer Woods Park, 2610 Cherokee Blvd SE Public Facilities (PF) Chanae Johnson, Planning Intern PROPERTY CHARACTERISTICS / SURROUNDING AREA Rainer Woods Park is a nine acre neighborhood park located in a neighborhood off Shaw Road. The park has a playground, youth softball field, basketball courts, wooded area and open space. In the Summer of 2017, the new off leash dog park was established in a portion of the park, west of the parking lot, which was previously used as open play space. Currently the dog park is a fenced off area designated for off leash dogs, but additional future improvements have been identified. PROPOSAL The South Hill Rotary Club of Puyallup has proposed to participate financially in the new dog park project in return for the naming rights to the facility. The South Hill Rotary Club is a service organization whose longstanding motto is Service above Self. For 34 years, the South Hill Rotary Club has demonstrated their two core values service the community and their families. They have contributed to local ball fields and have provided scholarships to high schoolers and adults for continued education. Taking their motto into account, they wish to contribute $20,000 donation for the purchase and installation of amenities (see attached photo) for the dog park. The South Hill Rotary Club is requesting the off leash dog park at Rainer Woods be named South Hill Rotary Dog Park at Rainer Woods. FINDINGS & STAFF ANALYSIS The Puyallup City Council has adopted a policy to establish criteria for the naming or renaming of City parks, open spaces, facilities and monuments. In order to approve this request, the Board must consider the following criteria: Criteria for Naming per City Policy for Naming or Renaming of City Parks, Open Spaces, Facilities and Monuments: Criteria for Naming: B) Commemorative Name Designation Associated in Honor of Individuals or Groups. 1) This section applies to any request to name or rename a park, open space, or component feature in honor of individuals or groups.

Staff Analysis: The South Hill Rotary Club is a local service organization that has been investing in the community for over 34 years. During that time, they have made numerous contributions by donating time and money to the local community. They have committed to provide $20,000 donation specifically for the Rainer Woods dog park in return for naming rights. These factors demonstrate that the proposed name is consistent with the facility naming policy criteria. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Based on the above findings, staff recommends that the Board approve naming the naming this facility the South Hill Rotary Dog Park at Rainer Woods and forward that recommendation on to City Council. 9 3

August 25, 2017 Design Review and Historic Preservation Board City of Puyallup 333 South Meridian Puyallup, WA 98371 To Whom It May Concern South Hill Rotary Club of Puyallup was chartered in May of 1983. Now, as at that time, our motto is Service Above Self Two of our core values are service to our Community and to Families. For the past 34 years we have been providing services to the community by contributing $50,000 for the construction of the ball fields at Bradley Lake Park, providing $9,000 per year in scholarships to Emerald Ridge and Rogers High School Students, as well as a recently endowed scholarship to PCC for adult continuing education. Additional we fully own four duplex units which we provide to Helping Hand House, to provide transitional housing for homeless families. Six years ago we partnered with Pierce Community College for a community event called Hounds On The Hill. While considered a fundraiser, it s main purpose was to provide a pet/family oriented event which serves to not only educate the community about pets, but to celebrate pet ownership as a way to enhance our community. Four years ago we moved away from the PCC partnership, due mainly to logistics, and partnered with the Puyallup Parks and Recreation Department on this, and moved the event to Bradley Lake Park. Since then the event has continued to grow, with hundreds of residents visiting the different programs, vendors, and education events that Hounds On The Hill has offered. When we first learned of the City Of Puyallup s plan to develop a portion of Rainier Woods Dog Park, we immediately felt that this would be logical continuation of our support for community and familes, and to further strengthen our partnership with the City Of Puyallup. Rotary Club of South Hill Puyallup would like to participate development of this project in return for the naming rights for the proposed dog park at Rainier Woods Park. Following the City s resolution on naming of City facilities we would propose the following: 1. In return for a donation of $20,000 for the purchase and installation of amenities (attached) we would request the dog park be named South Hill Rotary Dog Park at Rainier Woods. 2. South Hill Rotary Dog Park would remain the official facility name in perpetuity, or until changed by mutual agreement of both the City and the Rotary Club of South Hill Puyallup. 10

3. All official publications, electronic communications, advertisements, or otherwise, would refer to the dog park as South Hill Rotary Dog Park at Rainier Woods. The name South Hill Rotary Dog Park would be prominently displayed at the facility, along with the Rotary logo. 4. A sign would be erected near the facility providing information about Rotary International and South Hill Rotary. 5. South Hill Rotary would be included in the design process for the park 6. Where appropriate, South Hill Rotary would be allowed to contribute volunteer labor for the installation of amenities. 7. Upon a letter of understanding or signed agreement executed between the City Of Puyallup and South Hill Rotary, South Hill Rotary will make available $20,000 for the purchase of an agreed upon list of amenities, plus water features to be installed by the city next year when water/sewer service is provided to the dog park. South Hill Rotary has a rich history in our community of working for the betterment of families and children, and we are excited about the change to work with the city on this project.

Design Review & Historic Preservation Board Agenda Item Report Submitted by: Kendall Wals Submitting Department: Development Services Meeting Date: September 21, 2017 Subject: Downtown Design Review - Windermere Real Estate (116 S Meridian) Presenter: Chanae Johnson Planning Intern 253-841-5466 cjohnson@ci.puyallup.wa.us Recommendation: Discussion/Determination Background: The Planning Division received an application for downtown design review for a proposed awning over the front entry of the building at 116 S Meridian. The Board initially reviewed the application at the August 17, 2017 meeting, but additional information was needed and a determination was not made at that time. The applicant has updated the proposed awning to address some of the Boards comments and concerns. Staff will present the updated application to the Board for determination of its consistency with the Downtown Design Guidelines. More information can be reviewed in the attached staff memo and updated application materials.

CITY OF PUYALLUP Development Services Department 333 South Meridian Puyallup, WA 98371 (253) 841 5462 cjohnson@ci.puyallup.wa.us Memo Date: September 13, 2017 Board meeting Date: September 21, 2017 To: Design Review and Historic Preservation Board From: Chanae Johnson, Planning Intern Re: Design Review Application Windermere (116 S. Meridian) At the Board s August 17, 2017 meeting, staff presented the design review application (#P 17 0077) for a new proposed awning at the Windermere Real Estate office located at 116 S. Meridian. At that time, the Board determined that the proposed awning didn t appear to meet some of the requirements of the Downtown Design Guidelines and additional information was required to complete review of the application. The following items were discussed: 1. Fabric material 2. Depth four feet from face of building 3. Width covering the width of the tenant space, not the full width of the building The applicant was notified of the determination/discussion items and they provided updated elevations and information. The applicant is now proposing a new 37 x 5 fabric awning over the front entry of the building. Per PMC 2.29.070, the project will be reviewed for by the DRHPB for conformance with the City s Downtown Design Guidelines, specifically the All Buildings and Historic Properties sections of the guidelines. Staff has reviewed the updated project against the two sections and determined that the following guideline standards would apply: ALL BUILDINGS B: Pedestrian Weather Protection Intent: Improve the downtown pedestrian experience through weather protection. Staff Analysis: o This guideline requires pedestrian weather protection to have a minimum depth of 5 feet over walkways, and canopies over main entrances to extend minimum 8 feet from the face ofbuilding or width of sidewalk, whichever is less. The proposed awning would be located over the main entry, which is recessed. The depth of the recessed entry is currently unknown. o The updated frame details show the awning proposed at 5 feet in depth, which appears to be consistent with this guideline. o The proposal has been updated for the awning to extend the full width of the building (both tenant spaces), which appears to meet the requirements of the guideline and addresses the Board s initial concerns of how the awning would affect the look of the building. o It appears the proposed awning is still proposed to be made of fabric with metal framing. The board should analyze whether the proposed surfacing is consistent with the intent of this guideline. 15 Page 1 of 2 Memo to DRHPB #P 17 0077

HISTORIC PROPERTIES O: Articulation (pedestrian realm; historic cornice line; roofline) Intent: Maintain and reinforce the overall massing, form modulations and roof forms of historic buildings while allowing projects to be restored and updated to current code. Staff Analysis: o The analysis in the August 10, 2017 staff report found that the proposal did not appear to alter the building s massing, modulation or roof form, as well as any existing historic storefront design elements, consistent with the requirements of this guideline. The updated proposal also appears to meet this guideline. P: Modulation and form of building elements (entries, porches, projected or recessed bays, etc.) Intent: Reflect and reinforce the overall modulation and forms of older buildings while allowing the project to be renovated. Staff Analysis: o The proposal does not appear to significantly alter the building s overall modulation form. The proposal is limited to a new awning located over the front entry. Q: Façade features (windows, building materials, color, lighting, etc.) Intent: Require the detailing and embellishment of new buildings to reflect historical building elements, such as brick, to provide consistency between building additions and historic structures while allowing limited variation and alteration of the overall historic design. Staff Analysis: o It appears the proposal would not alter the façade materials of the building and maintains the historic character elements of the building, (e.g. storefront and original brick pilasters). Overall, the updated proposal appears to more closely meet the Downtown Design Guidelines and address some of the concerns the Board the discussed at the August 17, 2017 meeting. However, it appears the awning material is still proposed as fabric with metal framing. At the August meeting, the Board recommended that if fabric is the proposed material, then it should be of a similar quality to the fabric awning shown on page 12 of the guidelines (pottery barn photo); it is unknown if the proposed material is of the same quality. Staff will present the new awning information and staff analysis at the September 21, 2017 meeting, and anticipates a Board decision will be made to approve, approve with conditions, or deny the application. 16 Page 2 of 2 Memo to DRHPB #P 17 0077
