HISTORY June 15, 1872 – This property lies within the original boundaries of Lehi. ANALYSIS The applicant requests approval of the Lehi Hometown Office concept plan. The applicant wishes to construct a new office building on the site of the current car wash. The office would be brought to the corner of Main Street and 100 East for a “Main Street” feel. The office would be approximately 5000 square feet, with 19 proposed parking stalls; it would be one story with a basement level. The DRC noted that Planning Staff strongly supports this redevelopment because the building is oriented to the corner. Staff also highly encourages the owner to consider a 2 story building to fit more into the Main Street historic district, rather than having a basement level. Additionally, staff recommends that the architecture of the building have a turn of the century main street historic theme; the site would be required to meet the Historic Commerce District Design Standards. Please consider all DRC comments as part of the motion. RECOMMENDATION The Planning Division staff recommends APPROVAL of the Lehi Hometown Office concept plan, along with all DRC comments from August 16, 2017. This recommendation is based on the following findings: 1. 2.
The proposed concept is consistent with the Lehi City Development Code The proposed concept conforms to the goals and policies of the General Plan. 3.
