The issue I wish to address is the azchitectural element at the center of the building. Ameritel Inn's takes great pride in developing a well designed building with architectural elements that signifies the quality product they provide to their customers. Further, it provides us the opportunity for a visual presence without the creation of a lazge freestanding sign that would be highly visible to neighboring properly owners. We all know the sensitivity of the large pole signs in this neighborhood. Placing the integrated sign into the building shields it from the vast majority of the neighborhood yet provides the presence we need to compete yet done in a pleasant manner. Removal of elements of this nature creates a faz less attractive building. We believe this component of the building is permitted under Section 11-9.2-E, Supplemental, Yazd and Height Regulations. "E. Exceptions To Height Regulations: The height limitations contained in the zoning schedule of bulk and coverage controls do not apply to spires, belfries, cupolas, pole antennas, water tanks, public utility power poles, ventilators, chimneys or other appurtenances usually required to be placed above the level and not intended for human occupancy except where height of such structures will constitute a hazard to the safe landing and take-off of aircraft at an established airport. (Ord. 430, 4.2-1984) " The intent behind this section of the code is to permit azchitectural elements on buildings that are not designed for human occupancy. This is exactly what the center portion of the building is intended to accomplish. It is analogous to a "spire, belfry, cupolas, or other appurtenances:" It is an architectural element that is integral to the over all design of the structure. With this in mind, we would like the City Council to review the interpretation of this section of the code. If they concur with our position, then a variance for the height is not needed. If they do not concur then we must weigh the impact of reducing the height of the building and loss of needed identification. The impact may be fatal to the project.

The following quote is the Zoning Ordinance definition of Building Height: "The vertical distance measured from the average elevation of the proposed finished grade at the front of the building to the highest point of the roof for flat roofs, to the deck line of mansard roofs, and the top of building walls for gable, hip and gambrel roofs. " The height of a building does not include parapet walls or forms of architectural treatments. This is further clarified in Section 11-9.2-E, Supplemental Yard and Height Regulations: "The height limitations contained in the zoning schedule of bulk coverage controls do not apply to spires, belfries, cupolas,~nole antennas, water tanks, public utility power poles, ventilators, chimneys or other appurtenances usually required to be placed above the level and not intended for human occupancy except where height of such structure will constitute a hazard to the safe landing and take-off of aircraft at an established airport. "The top of the roof is thirty- three feet with the main parapet extending five feet higher to a height of thirty- eight feet. Based on the fact that the parapet walls are exempt from the height requirements of the ordinance, the main structure is below the maximum height requirement and would not require a variance. As indicated in the application to the City, the main entrance to the building has a spire or beliiy treatment that rises to a height of forty- seven feet, nine inches to the top of the wall and fifty- seven feet, nine inches to the top of the gable. This entire area is an architectural treatment and contains no human occupancy. It is the trademark of the hotel chain and provides the an area for a sign negating the need for a large freestanding sign. We have discussed these issues with staff and they concur with us that there is no need for this project as designed to obtain a height variance. We are, therefore modifying our variance application by withdrawing our request for a height variance. Because ACHD is classifying South Allen Street as a collector street, we will still need a setback variance for the sixty- three feet (+/-) the single story pool enclosure extends ten feet into the thirty foot setback for a collector street.
