Assistant Planner Ben Braudrick introduced the project. This is an unopened business, that is filling a vacant downtown space. The proposed work includes a combination of painting and cleaning of the unit’s façade and the installation of a wall-mounted and projecting sign. Total façade cost is $2,350 with a grant request of $1,175. Sign costs are estimated at $1,850 with a grant request Planning Commission Minutes April 11, 2018 Page 2 of $925.

Commissioner Morris concluded the Staff presentation and invited the Commissioners to ask staff or the applicant any questions they had about the proposal.

Chair Morris asked the applicant to come to the podium to answer any questions the Planning Commission had on the application proposal. Commissioner Hopkins thanked the applicant for choosing downtown Port Angeles as a location for her business and asked if the lease for the space included the allowance for improvements to the business or if the improvements would have to be reverted back to their prior state if and when her business vacated the space.

PROJECT SUMMARY Don Nivens is requesting a Façade Grant to improve and repair the vacant and dilapidated building located at 511 E. 1st Street (Application No. 18-02). The building has stood vacant and dilapidated since 2004 when it was last operating as a spa business. The building itself has had a long and colorful history due to its age, changes in ownership, and code requirements over the last several decades to increase the building’s public safety and access. Mr. Nivens is taking on the task of updating the exterior of the structure, as well as (but not included in this grant process) reroofing the structure and completely renovating the interior to make it safe and ready for the occupancy of several apartments and commercial businesses. In accordance with Ordinance No. 3476, City Council designated 1st Street between Laurel Street and Race Street as a redevelopment area where grant funding contributions may be increased over the maximum $10,000.00 on a per parcel basis. The ordinance requires that City Staff to participate in the proposed façade design and for any grant request of over $25,000.00 the City Council must issue final approval. Mr. Nivens is proposing a project cost of $37,078.68 and requesting a grant for $18,539.34. Staff visited the property on February 23rd with Mr. Nivens to discuss the plans for the building and provide feedback on the proposed design prior to the Nivens Mixed Use Building No. 18-02 April 25, 2018 Page 2 submission of the application. Once the application was submitted, staff kept in touch with Mr. Nivens discussing the design approach. Staff encouraged the applicant to request a grant reimbursement over $10,000 in order to use higher grade building materials that help retain the significant historic features of the building. STAFF ANALYSIS The Community Façade and Sign Improvement Program was authorized by the City Council through the passing of Ordinance No. 3373, and subsequent updates through Ordinance Nos. 3399, 3410, and 3476. This authorization is represented in Chapter 2.80 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code. The Program will provide a grant for funding of façade improvements that will enhance the physical appearance, accessibility, and overall value of individual buildings as well as surrounding areas. In evaluating proposals for funding, Staff reviewed the “Evaluation criteria and prioritization” of Section 2.80.110: Private contribution over and above the required match; Staff Analysis: Per the submitted budget, the applicant is providing the required 50 percent match. The request of over $10,000.00 is approved due to the project’s location within a City Figure 1: Current Street Facing Southern Façade Nivens Mixed Use Building No. 18-02 April 25, 2018 Page 3 Council designated redevelopment area. The applicant is ready to begin work as soon as possible and plans on providing occupancy by Fall of 2018. 1. Present condition of existing façade; Staff Analysis: The existing façade is currently in a dirty and neglected state, with broken windows, graffiti, peeling paint and trim in need of replacement. Enhancement of the exterior façades including removing all debris in and around the property, washing the exterior, replacing all windows and doors, fixing any imperfections and replacing siding and painting wooden portions of the façade, and flashing the roof cornice will provide a much needed streetscape improvement to this portion of E 5th Street. 2. The buildings overall public visibility; Staff Analysis: The building has high public visibility along the E. 1st Street arterial corridor. This street is within the 2017-2018 Redevelopment area along 1st street between Laurel and Race Streets approved by the City Council on June 20, 2017. The first street corridor is a highly traveled multimodal street, with dedicated bicycle lanes and on street parking on either side. Transit stops are located on the 600 block of 1st Street and the 900 block of Front Street 3. Expected increase in assessed value of improvement; Staff Analysis: The improvements will clean and update the building façade and are expected to greatly increase the assessed value of the property. 4. Historic Preservation; Figure 2: Current Alley Facing Northern Facade Figure 3: Current Eastern Facade Figure 4: Proposed South and West Facades with new paint, doors, windows, and updated false veranda Nivens Mixed Use Building No. 18-02 April 25, 2018 Page 4 Staff Analysis: The façade improvement is being performed on a building that is old enough to be considered historic. The building also has unique architectural features within the City. Some of the material changes or replacements may not be the congruent to the historic materials, but the structure and look of the façade is remaining unchanged or restored visually. 5. Context in the block or neighborhood; Staff Analysis: The building is located on a block has few two story buildings on the northern side of the street. This makes the buildings current state very apparent. The proposed changes will visually improve the entire streetscape of this block. 6. Benefit partner projects on same block; Staff Analysis: This grant application is not a partner project to a separate grant application, but is located in the 1st Street corridor commercial business district, which has seen many façade grants completed in the past FINDINGS, CONDITIONS & CONCLUSIONS Staff determines the following findings based on Staff’s review of the Program’s criteria: Findings 1.

Front Street, Port Angeles, WA 98362 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the facade grant award amount of $10,000 toward the restoration of exterior brick and mortar, repainting of the brick where appropriate, and installation of a 600 square foot mural depicting a celebration of the historic annual visitation of pacific fleet to Port Angeles Harbor (Grant No. 18-06). PROJECT SUMMARY Robert Stokes, on behalf of property owner Port Angeles Properties is requesting a Façade Grant to improve and repair and affix a 600 square foot mural depicting celebration of the annual visitation of the Pacific Fleet to the Port Angeles Harbor to a mixed use building located at 125 West Front Street (Grant Application No. 18-06). STAFF ANALYSIS The Community Façade and Sign Improvement Program was authorized by the City Council through the passing of ordinance. This authorization is represented in Chapter 2.80 of the Port Angeles Municipal Code. The Program will provide a grant for funding of façade improvements that will enhance the physical appearance, accessibility, and overall value of individual buildings as well as surrounding areas. In evaluating proposals for funding, Staff reviewed the “Evaluation criteria and prioritization” of Section 2.80.110: 1. Private contribution over and above the required match; Staff Analysis: Per the submitted budget, the applicant is providing above and beyond the required 50 percent match. The applicant is ready to begin work as soon as possible to meet the deadline of the Harbor Festival in May of 2018. Mixed Use Building at 125 West Front Street, No. 18-06 April 25, 2018 Page 2 2. Present condition of existing façade: Staff Analysis: The existing façade is currently in a state in which the mortar has degraded to a point that allows water to infiltrate into the interior of the structure. This infiltration will cause further degradation and the possibility of unsafe conditions for the occupants. Enhancement of the exterior façades, including repair and painting of the brick and mortar, and affixing a 600 square foot mural to the western façade will provide a much celebrated streetscape improvement facing the new Waterfront Park and proposed Port Angeles Waterfront Center. Restoration of the brick and mortar will ensure the building is secure and protected from the weather. 3. The buildings overall public visibility; Staff Analysis: The building has high public visibility along the Front Street arterial corridor, as it is adjacent the Waterfront Park, and flanked by two large parking lots. This street is within the downtown central business district with significant traffic counts and pedestrian use. There is a dedicated bicycle parking area to the east and public transit stops to the east (the Port Angeles Gateway Transit Center). The transit availability, in combination with the surrounding commercial businesses and city parks contribute to high pedestrian traffic within this block. Figure 1: Current Western Façade with a scaled mock-up drawing of the proposed mural. Mixed Use Building at 125 West Front Street, No. 18-06 April 25, 2018 Page 3 4. Expected increase in assessed value of improvement; Staff Analysis: The improvements will renovate, clean and update the building façade and are expected to increase the assessed value of the property and will allow the construction of two housing units in the downtown central business district. 5. Historic Preservation; Staff Analysis: The façade improvement is being performed on a building that could one day contribute to a downtown historic district, and as such the improvements being made will not take away from that historic significance. The buildings mortar is being repaired, and only areas that have been previously painted will be repainted. The wall-mounted mural is constructed out of a weather resistant material and will be fixed to the exterior façade using lag bolts that will be connected on either side of the wall 6. Context in the block or neighborhood; Staff Analysis: This building stands alone on the north side of the west 100 block of Front Street and is highly visible.
