Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the application with the condition that the area on either side of the double door be composed of one long single glass pane "sidelight" that matches the design of the proposed doors or be filled entirely with wood paneling - with final approval by Staff.

· 8 aluminum panels along grade
Middle door and northernmost door:
· measures approximately 11'5" x 8'9"
· 32 glass panels (eight panels wide by four panels high)
