Request of Michael Stroh, DMHA Architects, agent/architect for CHT, LLC, to consider Project 21-2090-DP/CDP for final review of a proposal for an adaptive reuse project that would remodel and reconfigure the existing buildings on the property to create a multi-tenant retail, restaurant, and office development with a central outdoor plaza. The project includes a new second floor addition comprised of 2,443 square feet of office suites, a 614 square foot bar, and 2,887 square feet of rooftop deck/patio areas. A 20-space surface parking lot is proposed for the rear of the property, accessed from Cactus Lane. As part of the project, the applicant received approval of a Parking Modification to reduce the required number of parking spaces for the project from 64 down to 48 spaces; and approval of an Encroachment Permit to allow for minor architectural projections into the City rights-of-way along Linden Avenue, Eighth Street and Seventh Street. The project also includes new streetscape and frontage improvements along Linden Avenue, Eighth Street, Seventh Street, and Cactus Lane. The property is a 0.69 acre parcel zoned Central Business (CB) with a Visitor-serving Commercial (V) Overlay and shown as APN 003-313-001, addressed as 700 Linden Avenue.
