The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the request at the December 12 meeting and unanimously recommended approval. The City Council reviewed on December 19 and directed staff to prepare approval docs, which are scheduled to be presented to the Council on January 16. B) School Lake Nature Preserve CD-PUD – Wally and Bridget Marx have requested final plat approval for their conservation design subdivision of 6 lots and conservation of 70 acres (11.76 buildable). Staff is reviewing the submitted material and will present when complete, potentially at the February 6 meeting. C) Maxxon Text Amendment (Fiber Cement) – Maxxon has requested that the City consider allowing fiber cement panels as an allowed exterior building material to re-side existing masonry structures to prevent moisture intrusion. Fiber cement panels are not currently permitted as an exterior material. The Planning Commission is scheduled to review at the January 18 meeting. D) Maxxon Site Plan Review – 900-920 Hamel Road – Maxxon has requested a site plan review for a 4,854 square foot addition between the two existing buildings on their property. The applicant proposes to convert existing bituminous to pervious surfacing because no more hardcover can be added as a result of the Elm Creek Shoreland Overlay District. The Planning Commission is scheduled to review at the January 18 meeting. E) Lunski Final Plat – Lunski, Inc. has applied for final approval of the subdivision related to the development of 80 units of mixed senior housing and 24,000 s.f. of office north of Highway 55 and west of Mohawk Drive. The Council adopted a resolution of approval at the November 16 meeting. Staff will work with applicant on conditions of approval before construction begins. F) Reserve of Medina Second Addition – Toll Brothers has requested approval of the second phase of the Reserve of Medina project. The City Council adopted approval documents on September 19. Staff will work with the developer related to the conditions of approval. G) Johnson ADU CUP, Dykhoff Septic Variance, Hamel Brewery, St. Peter and Paul Cemetery – The City Council has adopted resolutions approving these projects, and staff is assisting the applicants with the conditions of approval in order to complete the projects. H) Woods of Medina – This preliminary plat has been approved and staff is awaiting a final plat application I) Hamel Road Thirty Two, Hamel Haven subdivisions – These subdivisions have received final approval. Staff is working with the applicants on the conditions of approval before the plats are recorded Planning Department Update Page 2 of 2 January 16, 2018 City Council Meeting Other Projects A) Comprehensive Plan – The City Council completed review of the draft Comprehensive Plan update at the November 16 meeting and directed staff to submit for Met Council review. The Plan was deemed incomplete and staff has been collecting supplemental information to be resubmitted. Staff will present the information to the Council at the January 16 meeting. B) Chicken and Bee ordinances – staff intends to present information related to the keeping of chickens and bees on smaller lots in the City. Cities have seen an increased interest in “urban agriculture” and a number have adopted ordinances to permit. The Planning Commission held a public hearing at the December 12 meeting. Following the hearing, the Commission voted 3-2 to recommend approval of the ordinances. The City Council reviewed on January 2 and directed staff to remove the allowance for chicken and bees from the suburban/urban residential districts. C) County Road 101 Trail Connection – staff met with the City of Plymouth and Wayzata School regarding the connection between the existing County Road 101 trail and the future elementary school east of Wild Meadows. Staff also separately attended the Hennepin County Bike and Pedestrian Workshop where Hennepin County kicked off its trail grant solicitation process. D) County Road 19 sewer – Staff attended a meeting with the cities of Loretto, Independence, Greenfield, and the Metropolitan Council related to Loretto connecting to the Met Council sewer system and Met Council reimbursing Medina for operation of the system. E) MSA Certification of Mileage – staff completed and submitted the annual Municipal State Aid Certification of Mileage on behalf of Public Works. 1 CITY OF MEDINA 1 PLANNING COMMISSION 2 DRAFT Meeting Minutes 3 Tuesday December 12, 2017 4 5 1. Call to Order: Acting Chairperson Albers called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. 6 7 Present: Planning Commissioners Todd Albers, Dino DesLauriers, Kim Murrin, Kerby 8 Nester, and Robin Reid. 9 10 Absent: Planning Commissioners Aaron Amic and Janet White. 11 12 Also Present: City Planner Dusty Finke. 13 14 2. Public Comments on Items not on the Agenda 15 16 Ryan Lindell, 565 Hackamore Road, commented that there are a lot of drivers speeding 17 between 116 and 101 on Hackamore. He asked if there are plans for more patrols or any 18 other traffic activity planned. He noted that there are a lot of runners on the road during the 19 other seasons and wanted to bring that to the attention of the City. 20 21 Finke stated that there are no changes to Hackamore, but there are planned pedestrian 22 improvements for trails, along with road widening. He noted that widening the road can be a 23 double-edged sword, as that can encourage higher speeds. He stated that he can speak with 24 the police about adding additional patrols, and noted that the speed trailer can be placed upon 25 request as well. 26 27 3. Update from City Council Proceedings 28 29 Anderson reported that the Council met the previous week and approved the CUP for the 30 Crosbys and the ordinance regarding the introduction of small cell technology, both of which 31 were recommended for approval by the Planning Commission. He noted that the bulk of the 32 meeting was spent reviewing and approving the 2018 budget. He noted that the next tax 33 statement for 2018 will show a three percent drop in the tax rate from the City, which is 34 reflective of the good and mindful stewardship of funds from all parties involved. 35 36 4. Planning Department Report 37 38 Finke provided an update. 39 40 5. Public Hearing – Mark of Excellence Homes – 1952 Chippewa Road and NE 41 Corner of Hwy 55 and Mohawk Drive – PUD Concept Plans for 78 Lot 42 Twinhome Subdivision on 79.82 Acres and 60 Lot Subdivision (36 single-43 family and 24 townhomes) on 52 Acres 44 45 Finke presented the staff report for the PUD Concept Plan from Mark of Excellence Homes. 46 He stated that the previous Comprehensive Plan amendment included in the previous request 47 has been removed and therefore this is just a concept plan review and no change in guiding 48 for the southern parcel. He reviewed the staff report including details on the zoning, 49 proposed uses, and development. He stated that the request includes a PUD and described the 50 criteria that must be considered when reviewing that type of request. He compared the 51 2 proposed development and density to what would be allowed with the underlying zoning. He 52 noted that the City is currently operating under the existing Comprehensive Plan, while the 53 draft Comprehensive Plan is expected to be adopted in the spring of 2018. He provided 54 details on tree preservation, wetland, transportation and access, proposed road and water main 55 extensions, and school district boundaries. 56 57 Reid asked for clarity on the timing and whether the preliminary plat request would have to 58 come in before the draft Comprehensive Plan is adopted. 59 60 Finke stated that the request would have to be reviewed under whichever version of the 61 Comprehensive Plan is active when the request is received. 62 63 DesLauriers asked if the Roy parcel would be fully compliant with the current 64 Comprehensive Plan if submitted on its own. 65 66 Finke replied that both requests would be fully compliant with the existing Comprehensive 67 Plan, but explained that both requests would require a PUD as the zoning. He stated that the 68 applicant’s position is that the Roy parcel would not be compliant with the Comprehensive 69 Plan, as it would not be possible to come in with two units per acre. He noted that a few 70 adjustments would be needed to the southern property, but noted that it is relatively compliant 71 with the mixed-use zoning district regulations. 72 73 Mark Smith, Mark of Excellence Homes, stated that they have made changes since the last 74 time these requests came before the Commission and City Council. He stated that they have 75 concentrated on fewer homes and more open space and preservation of natural resources. He 76 identified homes that have been removed from the plan that borders the rural residential area, 77 noting that landscaping and shrubbery were added to provide a larger buffer. He noted that 78 an additional buffer is provided adjacent to the Bridgewater development. He stated that they 79 have reduced 25 percent of the bituminous surface to keep as much of the area green as 80 possible, which would not be received in a typical development. He highlighted a creek that 81 runs through the parcel and noted that there would be a walking bridge that crosses the creek 82 to the park area. He noted that trails would run through and connect the developments to the 83 park area. He stated that the density would conform as close as possible with the density 84 requirements of the current Comprehensive Plan. He highlighted some of the features that 85 would be included in the homes, noting that they have 30 years of experience. He stated that 86 they have put a lot of time and thought into the development and there is pressure on the 87 landowners to get this done before the Comprehensive Plan changes. He stated that waiting 88 could end up costing the City more, as they may not get the same green space and benefits 89 proposed in this plan. He noted that there is development all around this site and this is in 90 essence a doughnut hole left for development. He believed that they are offering something 91 great for the City and community 92 93 Reid asked the price ranges for the products. 94 95 Smith replied that the townhomes would range in $550,000 to $700,000 per unit, while the 96 single-family homes would range from $600,000 to $750,000, and the row houses would 97 range from $300,000 to $350,000. He stated that there would still be commercial space 98 available. 99 100 Albers noted that it was mentioned that 300 trees would be saved, and asked for a comparison 101 to the total amount of trees on the sites. 102 103 3 Smith replied that there are about 500 trees in total on the sites included on the last tree 104 inventory. He estimated that about 150 trees would be lost, and the remainder would be 105 saved. 106 107 Albers asked the vision from the park perspective, whether it would remain natural or 108 whether the brush would be cleared. 109 110 Smith stated that he shows a trail through the area and would intend to leave the area natural, 111 but stated that he would be open to suggestions from the Park Commission. He stated that he 112 would attempt to integrate the playground equipment into an area without a concentration of 113 trees. 114 115 Albers referenced the area proposed for future mixed use and asked how that size was 116 determined. 117 118 Smith replied that the area would most likely be 5.5 acres, noting that they attempted to leave 119 enough space for retail type buildings to fit into the space, while still leaving enough room for 120 the park and required density. 121 122 Albers asked for clarification on the commercial buildings and how they would be orientated 123 to Mohawk Drive. 124 125 Smith provided additional details on the proposed orientation of the future commercial 126 buildings. 127 128 Albers asked the size of the treed area on the commercial space. He asked if there is an 129 opportunity to save trees in that area as well. 130 131 Smith stated that he would want direction on that topic. 132 133 Albers stated that he would prefer to have as many of the mature trees preserved in that tree 134 line as possible. He noted that could be tough financially. 135 136 Smith stated that the commercial part will be a harder sell because of the challenges of the 137 site and he would be willing to save more of those trees if desired. 138 139 Murrin referenced the comment regarding keeping the park area natural and asked if the 140 playground would be constructed initially or whether that would be delayed to keep the area 141 natural. 142 143 Smith replied that he would look for input from the Park Commission. 144 145 Murrin asked if the intent is to construct the homes first and then delay commercial 146 development. 147 148 Smith stated that his plan is to construct the homes first. He noted that if there is interest with 149 the commercial, he would move forward with that, but noted that there will be challenges for 150 the more inward commercial sites. 151 152 Murrin stated that her concern would be that if there was not interest, then the site would not 153 truly be mixed-use and would not accomplish the goal of the Comprehensive Plan. She asked 154 if the building would be constructed in hopes that someone wants to lease or whether the site 155 would be built upon demand. 156 4 Smith replied that he would be comfortable building the first building, but explained that you 157 do not build without knowing the demand. He stated that it would benefit everyone to have 158 something in that location and therefore he believes there would be interest. He noted that 159 although office space has been a slow market, there is increasing demand and that could also 160 be a good fit for a portion of the site. 161 162 Murrin stated that the plan would include the watermain and road extension and asked if that 163 would be funded by the applicant or whether that would be a cost-share. 164 165 Smith stated that he would be paying for the watermain and road extension, but would ask the 166 City to assist with mitigation if that is needed. He stated that he has some land that could be 167 used for mitigation, but did not believe he would have enough. 168 169 Murrin asked if Smith has looked into the cost of constructing the road. 170 171 Smith stated that he will provide financial assurance that would provide for the road to be 172 built. He stated that if the costs exceeded his estimate, he would be responsible for that. 173 Smith provided information on the bidding and research that would be done prior to moving 174 forward. 175 176 Albers asked if there is an idea for the amount of mitigation that would be necessary. 177 178 Smith stated that he estimated about 150,000 square feet in area and the question would be 179 the rate of mitigation that could range from 4.5 to 9 acres. 180 181 Finke stated that generally there is a two to one replacement, but estimated about $750,000 or 182 $800,000 in wetland credits, noting that on-site mitigation is being looked at as well. He also 183 noted that floodplain impacts would need to be replaced onsite. 184 185 Murrin asked for additional input on mitigation credits and how that would impact the City. 186 187 Nester explained that when a wetland is filled, that must be replaced. 188 189 Murrin asked why the City would pay for that. 190 191 Finke stated that ultimately this would be a City road and therefore if benefit cannot be 192 proven, that cost cannot be assessed. 193 194 Smith estimated that the cost of construction for the road would be between $1,200,000 and 195 $1,800,000 and the wetland credits would be in addition to the road construction. He stated 196 that the hump in the road, as proposed, would help to avoid the more pristine parts of the 197 wetland. 198 199 DesLauriers asked if there is a rough estimate for the construction of the watermain. 200 201 Smith replied that the estimate is about $350,000 to construct the watermain. 202 203 Murrin stated that it seems quite costly just to build the road and watermain and asked why 204 the applicant is dedicated to this site. 205 206 Smith stated that both sites are very interesting with great topography with great views for the 207 homes. He stated that because the properties are changing for staging, both the sellers are 208 very motivated to get this project moving, which helps to create a better project for the 209 5 community and neighboring property owners. He stated that this would be a benefit to the 210 City and the neighbors. He stated that eventually this property will develop, and this will 211 provide a benefit for the community. 212 213 Albers opened the public hearing at 8:01 p.m. 214 215 Kate Nohre, 4412 Bluebell Trail South, stated that the developer has stated that this proposal 216 would meet the goals and desires of the community, but she does not believe that to be true. 217 She believes this to go against the slow growth desire of the community. She stated that the 218 City and tax payers have spent a lot of time and effort developing the draft Comprehensive 219 Plan and therefore she would ask the Commission to implement a moratorium to at the least 220 do additional study on traffic and the environment. She felt that the project is trying to slip in 221 before the draft Comprehensive Plan is adopted. She asked if this project were to be 222 approved, how that would impact the other future development planned for the City. 223 224 Fernando Vivanco, 4508 Bluebell Trail South, stated that one of the key words he noted was 225 complexity. He stated that the more questions that were asked, the more questions that 226 seemed to be prompted. He stated that this seems to be the packaging of two properties for 227 development, but then the properties would be decoupled for building. He stated that it 228 seems that the developer will pay for these items, but then would ask for the City to pay for 229 items such as mitigation. He asked what the $400,000 mitigation costs would look like 230 compared to the annual investment in infrastructure that the City makes. He stated that if that 231 is a large cost, perhaps that is not where the City wants to put its infrastructure investment for 232 the year. He asked if the developer were to go bankrupt, would the road still be built, or 233 would that responsibility then go away. He stated that his main concern is the extension of 234 Chippewa regarding traffic and the environmental impact. He stated that a lot of time has 235 been spent on the draft Comprehensive Plan, which has been accelerated to slow down the 236 rate of growth. He asked the role the DNR would have in approving the road through the 237 wetland and whether that would happen first or whether one would be contingent upon the 238 other. 239 240 Albers closed the public hearing at 8:07 p.m. 241 242 DesLauriers stated that it is clear the applicant took the input from the Planning Commission 243 and City Council and incorporated those changes. He stated that the willingness to pay for 244 the road and watermain are great benefits. He stated that while he does not feel that the 245 applicant has met all nine criteria for a PUD, he does feel that about six are met. He stated 246 that the property is currently zoned for development, but acknowledged that the Steering 247 Committee has delayed that development under the draft Comprehensive Plan. 248 249 Murrin stated that she does like the plan, but questions if this is the right timing and place, 250 based on the draft Comprehensive Plan. She understands the plan for why the applicant likes 251 this land, but noted that the Comprehensive Plan attempts to slow growth and change the 252 guiding of the southern site to business. She stated that if the plan does move forward, there 253 should be a condition that an office building be put on the commercial site right away to keep 254 in line with the desire for business on that parcel. She questioned whether the City wants, or 255 needs the road extension, although she understands the argument for the road extension. She 256 noted that there was a comment on whether or not Arrowhead can handle additional traffic 257 and therefore believed that a study should be done to ensure that roadway can handle the 258 traffic. She stated that even though the City would not be paying for Chippewa Road, the 259 City may have to pay funds for the mitigation and improvements to Arrowhead. She 260 questioned the value the City would get in the Chippewa Road extension and whether that is 261 a value the City needs. She referenced engineering comments regarding the desire to 262 6 preserve additional trees and possibly to provide a second entrance. She believed that 263 additional discussion should occur on density if the project moves forward. 264 265 Reid stated that she likes the proposal and was surprised. She stated that the applicant did 266 listen to the comments that were made and incorporated those changes. She stated that these 267 are tricky properties and believed the City would have difficulty with the road in future 268 development options. She stated that there is a need for the Chippewa Road extension as it 269 has come up multiple times. She stated that this would also provide a variety of housing 270 products, which is needed in Medina. She noted that it was explained that it would be hard to 271 have the entire southern parcel as business because of the site challenges and believed that the 272 mixed-use element would provide a good solution. She stated that this would solve a number 273 of problems and the developer is willing to work with the City to reach the desired goals and 274 maximize a tricky site. She stated that when the preliminary plat comes back she would like 275 information on the materials to ensure there is variety in the color of the townhomes. She 276 stated that she has a favorable impression of this proposal. 277 278 Nester stated that the timing seems rushed, noting that the intent of the draft Comprehensive 279 Plan is to delay growth. She referenced the minimum lot size of the R-1 zoning district and 280 stated that it seems that this would lower standards for the northern property, which goes 281 against revision of the Comprehensive Plan. She stated that this would add additional homes 282 that would go to the Wayzata School District, which is already full. She stated that while she 283 appreciates the desire to develop the property, this would be contrary to the draft 284 Comprehensive Plan. 285 286 Albers stated that a lot of the comments that have been made touch on the transition the City 287 is in between the existing Comprehensive Plan and draft plan. He stated that within that 288 transition the City had the opportunity to reduce the growth plan and the Steering Committee 289 took the time to target properties that they want to target for residential and business 290 development. He stated that they wanted to slow the development of residential along 291 Highway 55 and that is why the southern property was guided for business. He stated that 292 because they were able to reduce the number of properties for development, there were 293 winners and losers in terms of staging. He asked if the Commission should consider a 294 moratorium until the draft Comprehensive Plan is adopted. 295 296 Nester asked for information on the negatives of a moratorium. 297 298 Finke replied that the primary negative impact, from the perspective of staff, would be the 299 timing of a moratorium. He noted that the maximum amount of time a moratorium can be 300 enacted is one year. He stated that staff always suggests delaying that to the extent possible 301 and provided additional details on the process for reviewing the draft plan and updating the 302 controls. He stated that the positives of a moratorium would be that no one could question, it 303 would be clear that the City is not going to take action until the new plan is in place and it 304 would stop applications in the interim to allow the internal controls to be updated. 305 306 Murrin asked if the moratorium would be effective on all applications. 307 308 Finke stated that staff would need to determine the application of the moratorium. He stated 309 that there would be huge implications on the type of development that the moratorium would 310 apply to, as it could stop all new development. He noted that the moratorium could be 311 narrowed to new construction that would have a change in land use. He noted that the 312 moratorium would generally be recommended for the one-year period and then could be 313 revoked at any time during the one-year period. 314 315 7 Murrin asked if there were comments from the property owners when the draft 316 Comprehensive Plan was being developed. 317 318 Finke stated that both property owners provided substantial input during the process. 319 320 Murrin asked, and received confirmation, that both property owners expressed opposition to 321 the changes, but were not listened to. 322 323 Albers explained that the Steering Committee had to look at the City as a whole to make the 324 decisions and not everyone was going to be happy with those decisions. He stated that the 325 Committee was thoughtful concerning how development should occur, how resources would 326 be protected, and infrastructure that would be needed. He stated that the tricky thing is that 327 the guiding is changed on the southern parcel between the existing and draft plans and 328 therefore, in his mind, would support enacting a moratorium. He stated that they were not 329 intending for these areas to develop so soon under the draft plan and therefore questioned 330 why the City would allow for that development at this time. He stated that he understands 331 why the property owners would want to develop the land now, but believes that the City as a 332 whole needs to be considered. 333 334 Murrin stated that when the new Comprehensive Plan goes into place, the Commission could 335 review the plan. She asked if the developer could present the request in 2018. 336 337 Reid stated that the property is not guided for development until 2025 under the draft plan 338 and therefore the jump ahead would only allow for two years. 339 340 Finke noted that a Comprehensive Plan amendment could be requested. 341 342 Murrin stated that she likes the idea of a moratorium, as the Commission continues to receive 343 applications that they continue to deny. She believed that additional input should be gained 344 from the community to determine if the road extension is needed, and for a cost benefit 345 analysis to be provided. She stated that she would not want to completely close the door on 346 the proposal, but would want to have valid information supporting the request to make an 347 informed decision. 348 349 Nester stated that the moratorium seems to be a courtesy so that applicants are not continually 350 wasting their time if the City is not willing to accept applications at this time. 351 352 Finke stated that this is most likely the last application the City would consider before the 353 adoption of the draft plan and therefore a moratorium may be a lost cause. He stated that the 354 applicant is well aware of where the City is at in its process with the Comprehensive Plan. 355 356 Reid stated that if the applicant submits the preliminary plat before the adoption of the draft 357 plan, it would then be reviewed under the existing plan. 358 359 Finke confirmed that the plan is generally compliant with the existing Comprehensive Plan. 360 361 Reid stated that she feels that whatever would come in the future, if these properties were to 362 develop individually, would not be as good as this. She stated that the road is expensive and 363 tax payers will not want to pay for that. She stated that while she was uncomfortable as first, 364 she feels that the deal has been sweetened enough to garner support. She stated that while 365 she feels the need to slow down development, she does not feel that this will be that many 366 additional homes for the project the City will receive in return. 367 368 8 Finke stated that the discussion of moratorium is useful. He stated that the Commission can 369 provide that type of feedback with comments and if a preliminary plat were to follow, it 370 would be helpful to have that input now and save the applicant the money he would spend on 371 that process. 372 373 Smith stated that there was a workshop on the road and cost of the road, which included the 374 cost breakdown and was provided to the Council. 375 376 DesLauriers stated that this would provide the road extension, the watermain and the 5.5-acre 377 park. 378 379 Reid stated that this would provide a lot of benefits to the community. 380 381 Nester stated that if the developer does not pay for the road, the construction would be 382 assessed to the properties that would benefit. 383 384 DesLauriers stated that may be true for the road, but not the watermain. 385 386 Finke stated that from a priority standpoint, the watermain connection has been identified as 387 the highest priority and therefore the City would initiate that project if this project did not 388 move forward. He stated that the cost for that project would be bonded with water bonds and 389 incorporated into connection fees for future development. He stated that there is some risk in 390 that, as the City was close to needing to increase water fees to pay for bond payments for 391 improvements that were made. He stated that this summer and more recently with Oakdale, 392 the importance of the ability to loop water has been proven. He stated that there are various 393 options for the road connection in which the City could initiate a 429 project and assess a 394 portion of the cost to the benefiting properties. He noted that is unlikely because the road 395 construction would most likely be linked to development. He stated that if only one of those 396 properties develop, the City would then need to negotiate with the developer and most likely 397 also complete an assessment for a portion of the cost. He noted that the Chippewa Road 398 extension is identified as the main need in the draft Comprehensive Plan. 399 400 Murrin noted that is a big gray area, as the plan covers a 20-year period. She stated that when 401 the plan was developed there was input from the public, and she asked if feedback should be 402 gained from the public on whether this proposal would change the mind of residents. She 403 asked if a survey could be done online asking if residents would feel this is a good option for 404 the benefits that would be provided in return. She stated that she would love to gain that 405 input. 406 407 Finke noted that the City could ask for collection of the $1,000,000 that would be necessary 408 to build the road for those that wish to delay the road. 409 410 Albers noted that this is a public hearing and the time for the public to provide that input is 411 now. He stated that the people that are interested have voiced their input for the project. He 412 noted that there would be another opportunity for the public to provide input at the City 413 Council review. 414 415 Murrin noted that only two people voiced input and they were against the project. 416 417 Nester noted that there were also emails and a letter from the property owners that supported 418 the request. 419 420 9 Finke stated that this is a significant portion of the land slated for development that would 421 drive the Chippewa Road extension. 422 423 Finke noted that the Council is scheduled to review this concept at their meeting the 424 following week. 425 426 6. Public Hearing – Ordinance Amendment – Chapter 8 Related to Keeping of Chickens 427 and Keeping of Bees 428 429 Finke presented a potential ordinance amendment to the ordinances related to the keeping of 430 chickens and bees and reviewed the staff report. He reviewed the required setbacks and the 431 requests the City has received for smaller lots. He provided a summary of what is allowed 432 for chickens and bees in other metro communities. He noted that the proposed ordinance 433 change would reduce the setback specifically for chickens and reviewed the other restrictions 434 that would apply. He reviewed the proposed amendments related to the keeping of bees. 435 436 Reid asked if the permit would be a one-time requirement. 437 438 Finke stated that a permit would be required for location of a chicken coup. 439 440 Reid asked the recourse the neighbors would have if a problem arises. 441 442 Finke stated that the issue could be addressed through enforcement regarding the specific 443 problem that may arise. 444 445 Reid stated that she would want to ensure that problems could be addressed if they arise, as 446 she lives in a neighborhood where people live fairly close together and therefore there could 447 be unintended consequences. 448 449 Nester asked if there is concern with fertilizer and runoff, and whether that would be a 450 concern for the health of the animals. 451 452 Albers believed that would be a low risk. 453 454 Albers opened the public hearing at 8:55 455 456 Ryan Lindell, 565 Hackamore Road, stated that he is within rural residential. He asked for 457 information on the setback for a rural residential yard and yard configuration. 458 459 Finke stated that if the setback requirement was met, a variance would not be needed. He 460 noted that there would be a small permit fee if a permit was required. He stated that perhaps 461 what Mr. Lindell is asking for is a lesser setback in the rural residential zoning. He stated 462 that perhaps the structural setback of 20 feet would be used in the rural residential setback. 463 464 Nester noted that a lot of neighborhoods do not allow outbuildings. 465 466 Finke stated that there are covenants in place that would most likely prohibit the keeping of 467 livestock and poultry within certain developments. 468 469 George Bernhardt, 3451 Elm Creek Drive, stated that a mistake that he made was hobby 470 beekeeping. He stated that he has learned a lot recently about beekeeping and regulations. 471 He stated that there is a lot more beekeeping that occurs than people realize. He stated that he 472 did not understand the beekeeping regulations fully, which was his mistake. He stated that he 473 10 never would have had the bees on his yard if he knew it was not allowed. He stated that it is 474 important to understand the difference between hornets, wasps, wild bees, and honeybees. 475 He provided additional input on the habits of bees and the range that they cover. He stated 476 that he had a problem, because he had a hive that died and since that time has gained a lot of 477 knowledge on bees and splitting hives. He stated that a resident will most likely never be 478 able to gain the support of all their neighbors. He thanked the Commission for having this 479 conversation on a topic that is very important to him. 480 481 Reid asked if the resident had the chance to read the draft ordinance. 482 483 Mr. Bernhardt stated that he is against the concept of having to ask for a permit, as he views 484 that as a slippery slope. He stated that he agrees with a distance and limit on quantity. 485 486 Albers closed the public hearing at 9:10 p.m. 487 488 Murrin asked and received confirmation that bees are allowed in the rural residential zoning 489 district. She asked if beekeeping is allowed in the other non-rural residential zoning districts. 490 491 Finke stated that beekeeping is not allowed in other residential zoning districts at this time. 492 493 Murrin stated that she does not believe that chickens or bees should be allowed in non-rural 494 areas. She stated that she would also be in favor of keeping the setbacks at 150 feet for 495 chickens. She stated that she would like to keep the chicken ordinance as it currently exists. 496 She stated that she would be fine with the beekeeping ordinance, so that there are regulations, 497 but would like that to remain in rural residential as well. 498 499 DesLauriers stated that he does not have any issues with smaller lots. He stated that whether 500 someone has four dogs, cats or chickens, the nuisance ordinance would apply for control. He 501 stated that he would favor a one-time permit to ensure that the lot complies. 502 503 Nester stated that the scope is so limited, as this would not be allowed in her neighborhood 504 because of the covenants that exist. She stated that this could create contention, as this would 505 be allowed in some neighborhoods without HOA’s and not allowed in neighborhoods with 506 HOA’s. 507 508 Reid stated that this would regulate no more than four colonies, but the input provided from 509 the resident appears to state this would not be workable. 510 511 Finke stated that there is an allowance for nucleus colonies, which could then be given to 512 another beekeeper to continue on. 513 514 Mr. Bernhardt provided additional input on how the transition and the different phases that 515 occur. He provided information on what occurs during the winter months as well, noting that 516 30,000 bees will be reduced to 5,000 bees during the winter months. 517 518 Finke stated that effectively you could have eight hives to allow for the transitioning. 519 520 Motion by DesLauriers, seconded by Reid, to recommend approval of the ordinance 521 regarding keeping chickens. Motion carries 3-2 (Nester and Murrin opposed). (Absent: 522 Amic and White) 523 524 Murrin stated that she is opposed as she believes the 150 feet setback should be kept and that 525 the keeping of chickens should be limited to rural residential lots. 526 11 Nester echoed the comments of Murrin. 527 528 Motion by DesLauriers to recommend approval of the ordinance regarding keeping of bees. 529 Motion died for lack of a second. 530 531 Reid suggested tabling the ordinance regarding keeping of bees. 532 533 Murrin asked the additional information that would be needed. 534 535 Reid stated that she would like information on what other communities allow. 536 537 Albers stated that his neighbor has an active hive and they are not a nuisance whatsoever. He 538 stated that the bees are active when the temperature hits 40 degrees. He stated that he also 539 receives honey from his neighbor. 540 541 Reid stated that there is a need for bees in the environment. 542 543 Murrin stated that she would support an ordinance if it was limited to rural residential. 544 545 Finke stated that activity is already allowed without restriction and therefore would not 546 recommend that action. 547 548 Murrin stated that she would be comfortable with bees in the rural area and would be fine 549 leaving the language as is, without the rules. She stated that she would be opposed to bees in 550 the suburban area. She asked if there should be an ordinance with rules for the rural 551 residential area. 552 553 Finke stated that there is not a recommendation to add additional requirements in the rural 554 residential area. 555 556 Motion by Murrin, seconded by Nester, to recommend denial of the ordinance regarding 557 keeping of bees. Motion failed 2-3 (Albers, DesLauriers, and Reid opposed). (Absent: Amic 558 and White) 559 560 Motion by DesLauriers, seconded by Albers, to recommend approval of the ordinance 561 regarding keeping of bees. Motion carries 3-2 (Nester and Murrin opposed). (Absent: Amic 562 and White) 563 564 Murrin and Nester noted that they are opposed, as they do not believe beekeeping should be 565 allowed in suburban areas. 566 567 7. Public Hearing – Hennepin County Public Works – 1600 Prairie Drive – Amendment to 568 Planned Unit Development for Installation of 2500 Square Foot Fabric Covered Storage 569 Structure 570 571 Finke presented a requested amendment to a PUD for the Hennepin County Public Works for 572 a storage structure. He provided background information on the existing PUD. He stated that 573 the site is very large and set back from other sites. He noted that fabric structures were not 574 contemplated and therefore there is not an allowance for that type of structure within the 575 current PUD. He stated that the City does have a fabric structure used for storage on its own 576 public works campus. He stated that outdoor storage is already allowed on the proposed site 577 and therefore this would simply move some of that equipment into the fabric structure. He 578 stated that the impact would be limited. He recommended approval of the request. 579 12 Nester stated that she would prefer the material be covered and out of sight. 580 581 Albers opened the public hearing at 9:35 p.m. 582 583 Jerome Ryan, Hennepin County, stating that it took people in the public works department 584 years to have the discussion on whether a storage would be needed. He stated that the need 585 has been determined, and it would be helpful to have the equipment covered and ready for 586 use, rather than covered with snow and ice. He noted that there is not sufficient space within 587 the existing structures and therefore he did receive approval from Hennepin County to move 588 forward on this purchase to cover additional equipment. 589 590 Albers closed the public hearing at 9:36 p.m. 591 592 DesLauriers stated that he believes the Commission should have a future discussion on the 593 allowance of fabric structures as he would much rather have storage covered compared to 594 outdoor storage. 595 596 Motion by Reid, seconded by DesLauriers, to recommend approval of the PUD 597 Amendment based upon the findings noted in the staff report and subject to the conditions 598 recommended by staff. Motion carries unanimously. (Absent: Amic and White) 599 600 8. Approval of the November 14, 2017 Draft Planning Commission Meeting Minutes. 601 602 Motion by Reid, seconded by DesLauriers, to approve the November 14, 2017, Planning 603 Commission minutes as presented. Motion carries unanimously. (Absent: Amic and White) 604 605 9. Council Meeting Schedule 606 607 Finke advised that the Council will be meeting the following Tuesday and Murrin 608 volunteered to attend in representation of the Commission. 609 610 10. Adjourn 611 612 Motion by DesLauriers, seconded by Nester, to adjourn the meeting at 9:38 p.m. Motion 613 carried unanimously. 614 POSTED IN CITY HALL January 12, 2018 PLANNING COMMISSION AGENDA THURSDAY, JANUARY 18, 2018 7:00 P.M.

Adjourn Planning Department Update Page 1 of 2 January 16, 2018 City Council Meeting MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Mitchell and Members of the City Council FROM: Dusty Finke, City Planner; through City Administrator Scott Johnson DATE: January 11, 2018 SUBJ: Planning Department Updates – January 16, 2018 City Council Meeting Land Use Application Review A) Hennepin County Storage Building PUD Amendment – 1600 Prairie Drive – Hennepin County Emergency Management has requested an amendment to the Hennepin County Public Works PUD to allow a 2500 square foot fabric storage building within the storage yard at the Hennepin County Public Works Facility. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the request at the December 12 meeting and unanimously recommended approval. The City Council reviewed on December 19 and directed staff to prepare approval docs, which are scheduled to be presented to the Council on January 16. B) School Lake Nature Preserve CD-PUD – Wally and Bridget Marx have requested final plat approval for their conservation design subdivision of 6 lots and conservation of 70 acres (11.76 buildable). Staff is reviewing the submitted material and will present when complete, potentially at the February 6 meeting. C) Maxxon Text Amendment (Fiber Cement) – Maxxon has requested that the City consider allowing fiber cement panels as an allowed exterior building material to re-side existing masonry structures to prevent moisture intrusion. Fiber cement panels are not currently permitted as an exterior material. The Planning Commission is scheduled to review at the January 18 meeting. D) Maxxon Site Plan Review – 900-920 Hamel Road – Maxxon has requested a site plan review for a 4,854 square foot addition between the two existing buildings on their property. The applicant proposes to convert existing bituminous to pervious surfacing because no more hardcover can be added as a result of the Elm Creek Shoreland Overlay District. The Planning Commission is scheduled to review at the January 18 meeting. E) Lunski Final Plat – Lunski, Inc. has applied for final approval of the subdivision related to the development of 80 units of mixed senior housing and 24,000 s.f. of office north of Highway 55 and west of Mohawk Drive. The Council adopted a resolution of approval at the November 16 meeting. Staff will work with applicant on conditions of approval before construction begins. F) Reserve of Medina Second Addition – Toll Brothers has requested approval of the second phase of the Reserve of Medina project. The City Council adopted approval documents on September 19. Staff will work with the developer related to the conditions of approval. G) Johnson ADU CUP, Dykhoff Septic Variance, Hamel Brewery, St. Peter and Paul Cemetery – The City Council has adopted resolutions approving these projects, and staff is assisting the applicants with the conditions of approval in order to complete the projects. H) Woods of Medina – This preliminary plat has been approved and staff is awaiting a final plat application I) Hamel Road Thirty Two, Hamel Haven subdivisions – These subdivisions have received final approval. Staff is working with the applicants on the conditions of approval before the plats are recorded Planning Department Update Page 2 of 2 January 16, 2018 City Council Meeting Other Projects A) Comprehensive Plan – The City Council completed review of the draft Comprehensive Plan update at the November 16 meeting and directed staff to submit for Met Council review. The Plan was deemed incomplete and staff has been collecting supplemental information to be resubmitted. Staff will present the information to the Council at the January 16 meeting. B) Chicken and Bee ordinances – staff intends to present information related to the keeping of chickens and bees on smaller lots in the City. Cities have seen an increased interest in “urban agriculture” and a number have adopted ordinances to permit. The Planning Commission held a public hearing at the December 12 meeting. Following the hearing, the Commission voted 3-2 to recommend approval of the ordinances. The City Council reviewed on January 2 and directed staff to remove the allowance for chicken and bees from the suburban/urban residential districts. C) County Road 101 Trail Connection – staff met with the City of Plymouth and Wayzata School regarding the connection between the existing County Road 101 trail and the future elementary school east of Wild Meadows. Staff also separately attended the Hennepin County Bike and Pedestrian Workshop where Hennepin County kicked off its trail grant solicitation process. D) County Road 19 sewer – Staff attended a meeting with the cities of Loretto, Independence, Greenfield, and the Metropolitan Council related to Loretto connecting to the Met Council sewer system and Met Council reimbursing Medina for operation of the system. E) MSA Certification of Mileage – staff completed and submitted the annual Municipal State Aid Certification of Mileage on behalf of Public Works. Election of 2018 Page 1 of 1 January 18, 2018 Chair and Vice Chair Planning Commission Meeting MEMORANDUM TO: Planning Commission FROM: Dusty Finke, City Planner DATE: January 12, 2018 MEETING: January 18, 2018 Planning Commission SUBJ: Election of 2018 Planning Commission Chair and Vice-Chair The Planning Commission elects its Chair and Vice Chair each year. In the past few years, the Commission has conducted the election after the hearings on the agenda so that applicants and members of the public would not need to sit through the election. The Chair or Vice Chair from the previous year has run the meeting until the election in these cases. Staff recommends that the Commission hold the election in this way. If Commissioners would rather hold the election at the beginning of the meeting, a member can make a motion to amend the agenda. Chair White will not be present at the January meeting. She has indicated that she would be happy to serve as Chair again in 2018 if the Commission nominates and elects her. She anticipates being absent for at least 4 of the meetings because she spends the winter in Arizona. AGENDA ITEM: 8 Maxxon Page 1 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting MEMORANDUM TO: Planning Commission FROM: Dusty Finke, City Planner DATE: January 12, 2018 MEETING: January 18, 2018 Planning Commission SUBJ: Maxxon – Lot Combination and Site Plan Review – 900 and 920 Hamel Road Background VanMan Architects, on behalf of Maxxon Corporation, has requested approval of a lot combination of three existing lots and a site plan review at 900 and 920 Hamel Road for construction of a 5190 square foot two-level addition containing 2907 s.f. of office and 2283 s.f. of warehouse. The addition will be in-filled between the two existing buildings. The existing structures are an aggregate of 24,843 square feet, and include 14,457 square feet of office and 10,386 of warehouse. The property is zoned Commercial-General and is located within the Shoreland Overlay District for Elm Creek, which flows along the east of the site. Property to the north and west is similarly zoned, the apartment building west of the property is zoned Commercial-General, property to the south is zoned Rural Residential, and property to east is zoned urban residential. An aerial of the site can be found at the bottom of the page. Maxxon Page 2 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting Because the property is located within the Shoreland Overlay District, hardcover is limited to 25% of the lot. The existing hardcover on the site exceeds this limitation. The applicant proposes to remove bituminous parking lot and replace with Grasspave, a pervious surfacing, in an amount greater than new hardcover. Lot Combination The subject property is platted as three lots which are 0.73, 0.67, and 0.61 acres in area. The resulting lot will be 2.06 acres in size. It appears that the property has been being utilized as a single lot because the northern existing building is constructed across one of the property lines and a bridge is constructed over the other property line. However, staff cannot find record of a formal lot combination. The proposed infill construction between the two structures is proposed across one of the property lines. The following table compares the proposed combined lots to the dimensional standards of the CG zoning district: CG District Requirement Proposed Combined Lot Minimum Lot Size 1 acre 2.06 acre Minimum Lot Width 100 feet 305 feet Minimum Lot Depth 120 feet 305 feet Minimum Front Yard Setback 25 feet 23.3 feet Minimum Rear Yard Setback 20 feet 134 feet Minimum Side Yard Setback 10 feet 40 feet Setback from Major Collector (Hamel Road) 50 feet 28.1 feet It appears that the lot, as combined, would exceed the dimensional standards of the CG zoning district. The existing structure appears to be 1.7 feet closer than the required 25-foot setback from the Hickory Drive right-of-way, in the location where the cul-de-sac is located. The structure is also located 28.1 feet from Hamel Road, where the CG district currently requires a 50-foot setback from Major Collector roadways. The proposed lot combination does not affect these setback nonconformities. The following criteria are described in the subdivision ordinance: “In the case of all subdivisions, the City shall deny approval of a preliminary or final plat if one or a combination of the following findings are made: (a) That the proposed subdivision is in conflict with the general and specific plans of the city, or that the proposed subdivision is premature, as defined in Section 820.28. (b) That the physical characteristics of this site, including but not limited to topography, vegetation, soils, susceptibility to flooding, water storage, drainage and retention, are such that the site is not suitable for the type of development or use contemplated. (c) That the site is not physically suitable for the proposed density of development or does not meet minimum lot size standards. (d) That the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are likely to cause substantial environmental damage. Maxxon Page 3 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting (e) That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements are likely to cause serious public health problems. (f) That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will conflict with public or private streets, easements or right-of-way. It does not appear that the proposed lot combination would meet these findings. As a result, staff recommends approval of the lot combination. Proposed Site Plan The proposed addition is 5,190 square feet and is proposed between the two existing structures. The addition includes 2907 s.f. of office and 2283 s.f. of warehouse. The proposed location of the addition appears to meet the setback requirements of the CG zoning district. As noted above, the existing structures do not conform with setbacks in two instances, but the addition would meet all relevant setbacks. Also, as noted above, the existing site exceeds the maximum hardcover permitted in the Shoreland Overlay District. The applicant proposes to replace existing bituminous parking areas with Grasspave pervious surfacing in order to result in a net reduction of hardcover on the site. Following is a summary comparing the proposed addition and the proposed building after the addition to the dimensional standards of the CG district. CG District Requirement Proposed Addition (only) Proposed structure w/ addition Minimum Front Yard Setback 25 feet 47.2 feet 23.3 feet Minimum Rear Yard Setback 20 feet 161 feet 134 feet Minimum Side Yard Setback 10 feet 172 feet 40 feet Setback from Major Collector (Hamel Road) 50 feet 89 feet 28.1 feet Setback from Residential (east) 50 feet 161 feet 134 feet Setback from Residential (south) 50 feet 89 feet 28.1 feet -61.1 feet w/ROW Minimum Parking Setbacks Front Yard 25 feet 5 feet (Hamel Road) Rear and Side Yard 5 feet 30 feet Residential (west) 25 feet 25 feet Minimum setback from OHW 50 feet 148 feet 120 feet Parking from Elm Creek 50 feet 43 feet Maximum Hardcover 25%50% (reduced from 50.2%) Building Height 30 feet 20 feet 20 feet As displayed in the table, various aspects of the existing facility do not conform with current regulations. The property was developed in the 1980s and various regulations have changed since that time. State law and City ordinance allow nonconformities to be continued and improved, but not expanded. The proposed addition meets all relevant dimensional standards, provided the additional hardcover is offset by a reduction of hardcover elsewhere on the site. The Shoreland Overlay District restricts grading and vegetation removal within the shore impact zone, 50 feet from Elm Creek. The applicant proposes no disturbance to this area. Maxxon Page 4 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting Building Materials and Design The Commercial zoning district includes the following architectural standards. The Planning Commission and Council can discuss whether the proposed addition is consistent with the standards or recommend conditions if not. Materials The Commercial zoning districts requires: “All exterior building materials shall be durable and meet the following standards: (a) A minimum of 30 percent of the building exterior shall be brick, natural stone, stucco (not Exterior Insulation and Finish System or similar product), copper, or glass. (b) A maximum of 70 percent may be decorative concrete, split face (rock face) decorative block, and/or decorative pre-cast concrete panels. Decorative concrete shall be color impregnated in earth tones (rather than painted) and shall be patterned to create a high- quality terrazzo, brick, stucco, or travertine appearance. (c) A maximum of 20 percent may be wood, metal (excluding copper), or fiber cement lap siding, if used as accent materials which are integrated into the overall building design” The applicant proposes to utilize a combination of brick, stone, and glass in the exterior of the proposed addition, which meets the requirements of the district. The applicant has also requested that the City consider amending its code to permit fiber cement panels to re-clad the existing concrete building. This request will be discussed in a separate report. Modulation The Commercial districts require: “buildings shall be modulated a minimum of once per 40 feet of building perimeter to avoid long, monotonous building walls. This modulation may include varying building heights, building setbacks, or building materials/design. The portions of the building which exceed two stories or 35 feet shall be set back a minimum of six feet from the lower portion of the building.” The addition is less than 40 feet wide and is proposed to incorporate materials which provide modulation from the existing materials on the two existing structures. Fenestration and Transparency The Commercial districts require: “Building elevations which face a public street shall include generous window coverage. Alternative architectural elements may be approved by the City when windows are not practical.” The east elevation of the addition includes approximately 27% windows. The west elevation of the addition includes almost 30% window coverage if you include the windows proposed in the new loading dock doors, or 19% window coverage without. Multi-sided Architecture The Commercial districts require: “any rear or side building elevation which faces a public street, an interior access drive for the development, or a residential zoning district, shall include design and architectural elements of a quality generally associated with a front façade. The elevation(s) shall be compatible with the front building elevation. Additional signage shall be permitted for an elevation facing a public street or interior access drive, as regulated within the Maxxon Page 5 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting sign ordinance. Multi-sided architecture shall not be required in situations where the rear or side building elevation is fully screened from view from the adjacent street or residential property.” Staff believes that it may be difficult to argue that the new loading docks on the western elevation meet this requirement, although the applicant has proposed attractive carriage doors to meet it. With the exception of the loading dock doors, staff believes the remaining characteristics of the western elevation do exhibit multi-sided architecture. Stormwater The applicant proposes to off-set the additional hardcover from the addition by converting a larger portion of the existing parking lot to pervious Grasspave surfacing. Because hardcover will be reduced, the City’s stormwater management ordinance is not triggered. However, because the Grasspave surface is assumed to be pervious, ongoing maintenance is a requirement. As such, staff recommends that an agreement related to the construction and maintenance be required in a form similar to the City’s stormwater maintenance agreement. The City Engineer believes it is appropriate to designate the Grasspave surface as pervious for the sake of the Shoreland Overlay hardcover limitation, provided that the subgrade material is installed to provide sufficient water storage and that long-term maintenance is accounted for. The Grasspave surfacing also has the potential to provide stormwater quality improvements above current conditions. Historical aerial photographs have shown evidence of past washing of vehicles, equipment or other materials in the loading dock areas which created the potential for illicit discharge of chemicals to Elm Creek. Staff recommends a condition reinforcing the fact that the City’s illicit discharge ordinance applies and that no outdoor cleaning of vehicles or materials is permitted. Wetlands and Floodplains Elm Creek is located along the eastern boundary of the property. A “Zone A” floodplain is located adjacent to the creek, but is far downslope from any proposed work. No impacts are proposed. Wetlands are adjacent to Elm Creek in the location as well. A Site Plan Review triggers the City’s wetland protection ordinance. A buffer with an average width of 30-feet in width will be required upslope from the wetland. Staff recommends this as a condition of approval. Transportation/Access/Loading The primary access to the property is from Hamel Road, where most of the parking is located. The property also has three curb cuts on Hickory Drive, which serve loading docks. Hamel Road is designated as a major collector. The City Engineer has not recommended that the 5,900 square foot addition would cause capacity concern or necessitate any improvements. As noted above, three curb cuts on Hickory Drive provide access to seven existing loading docks. Trucks cannot circulate on the site and need to back off of Hickory Drive in order to access the loading docks. The southern curb cut substantially exceeds the maximum width of 32 Maxxon Page 6 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting feet permitted. The applicant proposes two additional loading docks to be served from this existing curb cut. The Commercial zoning districts requires: 1) “No loading dock shall be visible, to the fullest extent possible, from any residential zoning district. Screening may be accomplished through one or more of the following: using buildings to screen, opaque landscaping, decorative walls, or decorative fencing.” 2) No loading dock shall encroach into the required setbacks for the front yard or a side yard adjacent to a street. Loading docks shall be located, and landscaping shall be utilized so as to minimize visibility from streets.” The existing loading docks on the west side of the structure do not appear to meet these requirements. The applicant proposes to add 2 additional loading dock berths which would be unscreened from Hickory Drive and adjacent property and would appear to be located within the required setback from Hickory Drive. The applicant will provide information related to how they feel the new docks will comply with relevant code. Staff has recommended that the existing and new loading docks be reoriented so that there is no increase in the amount of loading docks beyond existing conditions. Parking The property includes 55 parking spaces, and parking also tends to occur in the loading dock areas of the property. The existing site appears to fall short of minimum parking standards, even before the addition. Staff calculates that the existing minimum parking requirement per ordinance is 64 spaces. The property owner states that parking has never been a concern based on their operations, and, in fact, the parking lot is often half empty. The property owner also owns property across Hickory Drive at 3575 Hickory Drive. The owner utilizes the existing structure on the site for warehousing, and there is also outside storage on the property which is intended to be moved into the expanded warehouse. As such, the owner is proposing joint/shared parking on the property across the street. Existing parking areas exist on the 3575 Hickory property, and the applicant has submitted a plan which shows that a total of 24 parking spaces could be accommodated (the applicant’s plan shows 31spaces, but 7 are in front of the garage doors on the existing structure). Code would only require 5 parking spaces for the existing structure on the property. The 19 parking spaces would more than covered the required additional parking created from the addition (13 spaces), and comes within 2 spaces of meeting the required parking by ordinance for both structures after the addition. Staff recommends a parking easement be recorded against the 3575 Hickory Drive property to preserve the 19 parking spaces for the use of the Maxxon property. The ordinance does permit the City to grant flexibility to the minimum parking requirements as follows: “A waiver may be granted by the City to reduce the required number of parking spaces. Parking reduction waivers shall be recorded with a legal instrument acceptable to the City. A waiver may be granted where it can be demonstrated that such reduction is justified due to: (i) factors having an impact on parking demand and capacity; (ii) the achievement of other competing City objectives including, but not limited to, preservation of unique or historic buildings, preservation of community character, tree or natural resource preservation; or Maxxon Page 7 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting (iii) unique or extenuating circumstances unforeseen by this ordinance.” Based on the applicant’s operation, staff believes existing parking will be sufficient, even without creating additional parking on the 3575 Hickory property. This could be argued as a factor having an impact on parking demand, especially for a reduction of 2 spaces (or 2.5%). The City’s code also allows a reduction in the number of parking spaces constructed if the applicant provides proof of parking which can be constructed in the future if deemed necessary by the City. Staff recommends a proof of parking agreement be required in lieu of constructing additional parking at this time. Lighting The applicant proposes new lighting fixtures around the entire structure. The CG district requires all exterior lighting to be fully downcast and shielded and limits light trespass to 0.5 footcandles at the property line, and to 0.0 footcandles at any residential property line. It appears the light on the southern façade will exceed the maximum 0.5 footcandle requirement. Staff recommends a condition for additional shielding or otherwise providing compliance with the lighting code. Landscaping and Tree Preservation The City’s tree preservation ordinance would allow the removal of 9 existing trees without replacement. The applicant proposes to remove 5 trees on connection with the construction. The Commercial zoning districts require the planting based upon the perimeter of the lot, in this case resulting in 25 overstory trees, 12 ornamental trees, and 41 shrubs. Existing trees can be used towards this count, so it appears that no trees would be required. The applicant proposes 13 additional trees and 45 shrubs within their landscaping plan, but it appears that all landscaping is proposed to the east of the building. Staff recommends that some planting be incorporated to the west of the structure. The Commercial zoning districts also require: “a minimum of eight percent of the total land area within parking, driveway, and loading dock areas shall be landscaped.” No landscaping exists within the parking lot and loading dock areas. The applicant proposes to expand the loading dock area to serve docks in the addition. Staff would recommend that an area at least as large be converted from loading dock to landscaping if new loading dock space is created. Utilities, Mechanical Equipment, and Trash and Recycling Facilities The Commercial districts require that all utility equipment, meters and transformers shall be placed either inside of the building or screened. Mechanical and HVAC equipment is required to be screened whether on the rooftop or on the ground. The code also requires: “All trash and material to be recycled shall be stored within the principal building, within an accessory structure, or within an enclosed outdoor area adjacent to the principal structure. The accessory structure or enclosed area Maxxon Page 8 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting shall be constructed of similar materials and have compatible architecture as the principal structure and shall abide by yard setback requirements.” The applicant has added a note that any new equipment will be screened. Staff recommends a condition requiring detail. The Commercial zoning district does not permit outside storage or materials, so staff recommends a condition related to this requirement. Staff Recommendation As noted above, staff believes the lot combination helps improve conformance so that existing improvements no longer cross a property line. It does not appear that any of the findings for denial of the combination apply in this case. The Planning Commission generally does not review lot combination requests, so there is no need for a recommendation. The purpose of a Site Plan Review is “to determine whether it is consistent with the requirements of this ordinance, including the applicable development standards and the purpose of the zoning district in which the property is located.” The Site Plan Review only applies to the new improvements which are proposed. Staff noted a number of circumstances in which the existing buildings do not comply with current regulations for background. The applicant is attempting to accommodate the expansion and improvement of the property and comply with current regulations within the context of these nonconformities. Staff has recommended conditions throughout the report which staff believes would bring the plans into compliance with relevant regulations. The most significant recommendations relate to:  The existing property exceeds hardcover limitations in the Shoreland Overlay District. The applicant proposes to replace existing bituminous parking with Grasspave pervious surfacing. The City Engineer believes it is appropriate to treat the Grasspave area as a pervious surface to offset new hardcover, but only if the specifications of the installation and the long-term maintenance are accounted for. The Planning Commission and Council will need to confirm whether this is consistent with the requirements of the Shoreland Overlay District.  Two additional loading docks are proposed and need to be determined if they comply with code requirements for location outside of front yard setbacks and screening. Staff has recommended that no additional loading docks be permitted.  On-site parking does not meet code requirements. The Planning Commission and Council will need to confirm that the off-site shared parking arrangement with proof-of-parking is sufficient. Staff does not believe the proposed arrangement will cause concerns. Staff recommends approval of the Site Plan Review, subject to the following conditions: 1) Approval of the Site Plan Review shall be contingent upon approval and effectuation of a lot combination of the Property. 2) The Owner shall enter into an agreement(s) with the City in a form and of substance acceptable to the City Attorney to ensure construction and long-term maintenance of pervious parking lot surfacing and other relevant City requirements and policies. Maxxon Page 9 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting 3) The Owner record a parking easement in a form and of substance acceptable to the City Attorney to ensure parking is reserved upon the neighboring property for the benefit of the subject Property. 4) The Owner shall enter into an agreement with the City in a form and of substance acceptable to the City Attorney to ensure construction of the proof-of-parking on the neighboring property if deemed necessary by the City in the future. 5) The Applicant shall install all improvements shown on the plans dated December 19, 2017, except as may be modified herein. The design of all improvements shall be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer prior to commencing construction. 6) All comments from the City Engineer shall be addressed. 7) The Owner shall meet the requirements of the wetland protection ordinance including easement, vegetation and signage. 8) The Owner shall update plans such that no additional loading docks are created which are unscreened from the public right-of-way and that utilize the front yard setback. Existing loading docks may be permitted to provide access to new warehouse space. 9) The Owner shall update lighting plans such that no lighting exceeds 0.5 footcandles at the property lines and shall otherwise meet the requirements of the lighting ordinance and CG zoning district. 10) Landscaping plans shall be updated to include some plantings west of the structure. 11) Eight percent of new loading dock area shall be landscaped, or any additional loading dock area shall be off-set by the removal of an equal area of loading dock area to comply with parking lot/loading dock landscaping requirements. 12) The exterior material utilized to re-clad the existing structures shall be consistent with the requirements of City Code. Fiber cement shall only be utilized in excess of 20% if the zoning code is amended to permit such use. 13) The use on the Property shall abide by the requirements of the Illicit Discharge Ordinance and no pollutants shall be washed from vehicles or equipment in a way to discharge to wetlands or waterbodies. 14) Any new mechanical or utility equipment and any new trash/recycling storage shall be screened as required by the CG zoning district. Verification that no such equipment or storage is proposed shall be provided prior to building permit, or the location and screening shall be provided. 15) The Owner shall pay to the City a fee in an amount sufficient to reimburse the City for the cost of reviewing the lot combination, site plan review, and the review and creation of related documents. Potential Action If the Planning Commission finds that, subject to the conditions noted above, the proposed Site Plan complies with relevant ordinance requirements, the following motion would be in order: Move to recommend approval of the Maxxon Site Plan Review, subject to the conditions noted in the staff report.

Equal Opportunity Employer | wsbeng.com  January 4, 2018 Mr. Dusty Finke Planner City of Medina 2052 County Road 24 Medina, MN 55340-9790 Re: Maxxon Corporation Bldg/Site Expansion – Engineering Review City Project No. LR-17-220 WSB Project No. 011151-000 Dear Mr. Finke: We have reviewed the Maxxon Corporation Site application and plans dated December 18, 2017. The applicant proposes to construct a new building connecting the two existing structures and modify the loading dock access and layout. The documents were reviewed for general conformance with the City of Medina’s general engineering standards and Stormwater Design Manual. We have the following comments with regards to engineering and stormwater management matters. Site Plan 1. The proposed 1” washed limestone rock is not an acceptable surface cover for a parking lot or truck loading dock area. The narrative provided by the applicant suggests that an alternative would be to replace impervious paving with permeable pavers in the existing parking lot at the back of the building. The City would be amenable to this option, please provide a design of the proposed permeable paver treatment area. Please update the narrative with the current proposed pervious paving technique. 2. The City is planning to reconstruct Hickory Drive in 2019. The work will include minor regrading of the road to better convey drainage, the addition of concrete curb and gutter, bituminous pavement, storm sewer installations, and a stormwater pond north of the Maxxon site. The City requests that the applicant work with the City during the planning stages to identify areas of permanent improvements to the Maxxon driveway and site drainage conveyance adjacent to Hickory Drive. Depending on the schedule of the Maxxon addition, temporary improvements may be necessary to accommodate drainage and access until the City’s project is constructed. 3. Add the existing watermain to the plans located along Hickory Drive and Hamel Road. Complete. 4. Typical pavement sections note that “depth of base course to be determined in the field by on-site engineer”. The pavement section for the permeable pavement should be designed to the most conservative onsite condition. Soil borings should be submitted showing the water table is at least 3-feet below the base course and that the underling soil has the specified Medina Maxxon Corporation Bldg/Site Expansion – Engineering Review January 4, 2018 Page 2 permeability. Medina is known for poor soils, provide a revised typical section with the information provided from the soil borings. 5. Add a legend for the various hatching patterns. 6. Add a heavy-duty pavement section to the plans for the loading dock/truck area in consideration of the onsite soil conditions. The preference is to have a final design determined prior to construction and not have to make hasty decisions during construction. Grading and Erosion Control Plan 7. Provide the location of a rock construction entrance. Identify how disturbed areas will be restored (erosion blanket, seeding, etc). Additional BMP’s may be necessary with the permeable paving installations, please show on plan. Add inlet protection to adjacent CB’s. Add linework and symbols to the legend for the erosion control items. Complete. 8. Where retaining walls are proposed, note top and bottom of wall elevations. Complete. 9. Provide grade percentages where new pavement and valley gutters are proposed. Plans show the valley gutter at 0.5% but also include for the new bituminous areas. 10. Provide energy dissipation method at end of valley gutter. 11. Show the roof downspout locations on the grading plan. 12. Add a legend for the various hatching patterns. 13. Preference is to add the roof drains/downspouts to the street side of the building for connection to future storm sewer in Hickory Drive. Stormwater Management 14. Based on the proximity of the Shoreland Overlay District covering much of the existing site, the City will not allow a net increase in impervious surface. The applicant has indicated the additional impervious surface could be off-set using permeable pavers. Show the location on plans with grading information, provide typical section, and provide other pertinent design information. Complete. 15. Provide calculations confirming the size/design of the pervious paving method based on the new/existing impervious surface areas where runoff is collected from. Calculations were provided (via email on December 28th), but no indication of the full drainage area was provided. Provide a map showing, and noting the size of, the drainage area directed to the Grasspave BMP. Soil borings should be submitted showing the water table is at least 3-feet below the base course and that the underling soil has the specified permeability. 16. The development may need to meet the appropriate watershed standards and submit for permits if applicable. 17. Submit a maintenance plan to the City consistent with the maintenance and operations listed in the Grasspave design brochure and other necessary local climate/weather considerations.

Jim Stremel, P.E. City Engineer December 18th, 2017 City of Medina Site Plan Review A proposed infill for Maxxon Corporation and Floor Technologies Inc. at 920 Hamel RD, Hamel, MN 55340. A site plan review is being requested for approval of a 2 story, 5,190 square foot infill addition between 2 existing buildings. The infill will provide 2,418 square feet of office space and 1,901 square feet of warehouse storage. The addition will fulfill a need for more vehicle and product storage, office space, better access between the two existing buildings and resolve the structural issues of the existing sky bridge. The infill will add 5,991 square feet of additional impervious material, will eliminate 1,412 square feet of existing impervious material resulting in a net addition of 4,579 square feet. In order to address this issue, the bituminous and concrete (5,306 square feet) on the warehouse side will be replaced with 1” washed limestone rock (depth to be confirmed by geotechnical engineer) to provide a permeable surface. If this is to be found unacceptable by the planning commission or governing body, the eastern row of parking spaces (4,671 square feet) will be replaced with permeable paving. The additional parking spaces required for the infill and to bring the existing building into compliance will be accommodated by an easement or other legal agreement on the owners property at 3575 Hickory Dr. The agreement will be determined between Maxxon’s attorney and the City Attorney. The exterior of the existing building will be re-clad to address existing water infiltration issues and to update the buildings aesthetics to match the new construction. The proposed materials include brick and Nichiha Vintage Wood fiber cement panels. The existing building’s water infiltration makes stucco an undesirable exterior finish to prevent encapsulating the water and creating a mold or “sick building” issue. The existing single CMU block construction does not provide enough structural strength to support a new full height cladding of pre-cast, block, brick, or natural stone. These materials have been incorporated in amounts the existing structure can support. The Nichiha panels will provide a light-weight, aesthetically pleasing, rain screen façade that will prevent further water infiltration while allowing the current walls to breathe and dry. The addition will accommodate approximately 16 additional employees and will not require additional restrooms nor will there be new equipment requiring significant additional water.

River News on the _____ day of _____________, 2018. City Of Medina Section 838.5 Design and Development Standards for All Commercial Districts Section 838.5.02. Building Materials and Design Subd. 1. Building Materials (d) Fiber Cement Architectural Wall Panels with a minimum 5/8” thickness are an approved material in the case of an existing masonry building with water infiltration issues making stucco an unsuitable finish material and cannot support the additional weight of precast panels, full height masonry, or other approved materials. Panels must be installed with a hidden fastening system that also serves as a built in drained and back-ventilated rainscreen. Explanation 5/8” vs thinner panels Panels under 5/8” are typically less durable, require more maintenance, withstand weather poorer, and are unable to span as far making the panels smaller resulting in a more residential look. Additionally, finish and product warranties on the 5/8” panels are typically 10-15 years as opposed to shorter warranties on the thinner products. Explanation Benefits over currently allowed material Stucco – Stucco over existing materials can cause water entrapment leading to mold issues and sick building syndrome. Architectural Concrete/CIP/Precast Panels/Decorative Block – The weight of these materials will require additional foundation and footings adjacent to the existing building. This would require excavation up to the existing foundation. With the potential high moisture content in the clay and the existing water issues, this increases the chances of structural failure and water infiltration. Glass – Due to the structural and spatial modifications, it is financially infeasible to retrofit an existing building with a significant amount of glass to offset the percentages required. Retrofitting the building with additional glass would also not address the water infiltration issue. Masonry (Brick/Stone) – The weight of these materials will require additional foundation and footings adjacent to the existing building. This would require excavation up to the existing foundation. With the potential high moisture content in the clay and the existing water issues of the building, this increases the chances of structural failure and water infiltration. Redwood or Cedar Boards – These actual wood materials require significantly more maintenance, wear a lot worse, and overall last for less time than a fiber cement panel. Please see the Nichiha Wood Comparison chart for an example. None of the approved materials allow for a built in drained and back-ventilated rainscreen which is crucial on an existing building with water infiltration issues. The rain screen will allow the building to breathe and dry out while simultaneously keeping the new moisture off the building. It is lightweight enough to not require any significant excavation near the existing building for installation. Finishes available allow the look of the approved materials - architectural block, wood, concrete, stone, brick while being a low risk, technical, and financial feasibility for existing buildings with water infiltration issues. From https://continuingeducation.bnpmedia.com/article_print.php?L=332&C=1210 “Fiber cement architectural wall panels have been demonstrated as a proven wall cladding system for commercial buildings. They have been developed from a history of other successful building products and include ingredients that are readily available and abundant. Commercial products are designed differently than residential products to meet the demands and rigors of commercial installations. They are available in a variety of system types that allow for variation and choices in appearance, performance and wall assembly details. As a rainscreen product they can meet a range of tests in conjunction with a properly designed substrate or supporting construction wall.

It is important to keep in mind the actual metric dimensions when considering panel layout, placement of control and compression joints, and with respect to sizing window and door openings. Approximate Imperial dimensions are 17-7/8 inches (h) x 119- 5/16 inches (l) x 5/8 inch (t). AWP-3030 edges are ship-lapped on the top and bottom and a factory sealant gasket is included on the top edge, providing a factory seal on all horizontal joints. AWP attachment hardware engages the top and bottom panel edges, holding the panels off the substrate surface by 10 mm (~3/8”) and creating a closed- joint, drained/back-ventilated rainscreen system with concealed fastening. When accounting for the overall thickness of the AWP system, add this 10 mm plus the thickness of the panel (16 mm) for total system thickness of 26 mm. AWP-3030 may be installed horizontally or vertically.

Nichiha AWP are intended as a low- to-mid-rise cladding product and are not for use on high-rise buildings. Do not use AWP on open screen walls. Any project of more than three stories or 45 feet, as well as those located in high wind coastal areas (Exposure Categories C and D with Basic Wind Speed in excess of 130 mph), or those with any wall assembly not described in Framing & Sheathing Requirements, require a technical review by Nichiha to evaluate feasibility via our Technical Review and Special Application Form (SAF) process. By examining a project’s unique criteria and design, we can reference independently test-derived and calculated wind load performance data for our products to determine whether and how the panels can safely be installed on the project. Contact your local rep or Nichiha technical department for details or to initiate an SAF. AWP are not to be used in any applications not specified or described in this installation guide or other Nichiha technical documents. Do not install AWP on open screen walls or Insulated Concrete Forms (ICFs). Installation of AWP products on modular structures that are factory-constructed and then transported to a final site are not approved; and further, excluded from the Limited Product Warranty, per Section 2.F. Any such use shall not be backed by product warranty. Please contact Nichiha Technical Services for assistance. SAFETY As with any natural stone, masonry, or concrete based product, when cutting, drilling, sawing, sanding, or abrading fiber cement cladding, proper safety measures must be taken due to the potential for airborne silica dust, an OSHA-identified hazardous substance that can pose serious medical risks. Always wear safety glasses and a NIOSH/ OSHA approved respirator with a rating of N, O, or P 100. Carefully follow the respirator manufacturer’s instructions as well as applicable governmental safety regulations concerning silica. Refer to Nichiha’s SDS for more information. Always cut fiber cement panels outside and with a dust-collecting HEPA system. Do not cut the products in an enclosed area. Use a dust-reducing circular saw with diamond-tipped or carbide-tipped fiber cement saw blades. Always clean panels after cutting. Fiber cement dust can potentially bind to the panel finish. 5 FRAMING & SHEATHING REQUIREMENTS Nichiha AWP cladding may be installed on vertical walls only. No tilted/sloped walls, soffits, or ceilings. Wood or steel framing, concrete/masonry with furring, Structural Insulating Panels (SIP), and pre-engineered metal buildings (PEMB) must meet the following requirements: Prior to Nichiha installation, closely inspect exterior wall substrate and correct any problems. Walls that are out of plumb, for example, can negatively impact the installation quality of AWP. Nichiha Spacer may be used in conjunction with panel attachment hardware if necessary to ensure an even substrate. Refer to PEI-PER 14088 for wind load data. Wood Studs Size: minimum 2x4 studs Spacing: 16” o.c max Sheathing: exterior grade minimum 7/16” plywood/OSB (APA rated),½” or 5/8 gypsum Metal Studs Gauge: minimum 18 Spacing: 16” o.c max Sheathing: exterior grade minimum 7/16” plywood/OSB (APA rated),½” or 5/8”gypsum Concrete/Masonry Furring is required for installation of AWP over concrete and masonry structures. Wood Furring: pressure treated lumber 2x4 or 5/4x4’s, oriented vertically, spaced 16” o.c. max Metal Furring: hat channel, c-stud, or z-furring, “ˆ˜ˆ“Õ“£n}>Õ}i܈̅£‡Ó»y>˜}iÃ]œÀˆi˜Ìi` vertically, spaced 16” o.c. max. Structural Insulating Panels (SIP) SIPs should be installed in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions and local building codes. Additional special Nichiha installation requirements for SIPs are discussed in the Fasteners and Installing the First Course sections to follow. For buildings greater than one story, contact Technical Department for assistance. Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings (PEMB) Metal buildings must be new construction. No retrofits/remodels. Metal siding/skin deflection of L/120. 50 ksi metal panels must have ribs spaced no more than 12” O.C. with metal guage determined by allowable wind design pressures: Projects with allowable design pressures in excess of the table values may not utilize AWP directly over PEMB metal panels. Additional special Nichiha installation requirements for PEMBs are discussed in the Fasteners and Installing the First Course sections to follow. Metal Panel Gauge Allowable Pressure 24 gauge 22 gauge -31.41 psf -39.29 psf Photo Credit: Nucor Building Systems NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 6 CONTINUOUS INSULATION Where exterior/continuous insulation is used, AWP may be installed directly over up to 1” of foam plastic insulation on wood or gypsum sheathing. Greater amounts require a structural solution to provide attachment points for AWP such as a furring grid or third-party specialized system. Mineral wool c.i. of any thickness requires a furring. Refer to the Technical Bulletin: Continuous Insulation and AWP available at Nichiha.com/resources/technical-bulletins. Please contact Nichiha technical department for further assistance. WEATHER RESISTIVE BARRIERS A weather resistive barrier (WRB) is required when installing Nichiha panels over stud walls and SIPs. For CMU/concrete wall applications, we defer to local code. Use an approved WRB as defined by the 2015 IBC. A breathable WRB is highly recommended when installing Nichiha panels for residential applications. A breathable WRB is required for all commercial applications. A fluid applied WRB is acceptable. All openings must have appropriate flashing to prevent moisture penetration. Follow manufacturer’s guidelines and all local building codes. STORAGE AND HANDLING AWP are a finished product and care must be taken to protect them against damage prior to and during installation. Panels must be stored flat and kept dry. Refer to storage information included on product pallets. Ensure panels are completely dry before installing. Direct contact between the panels and the ground must be avoided at all times. It is necessary to keep panels clean during the installation process. The custom color finish of Illumination Series panels requires 30 days to fully cure and extra care must be taken to avoid damage to the paint during the installation process. Cut panels face down. ALWAYS CLEAN PANELS WITH A CLEAN, SOFT, DRY CLOTH AFTER CUTTING. DUST CAN BIND TO THE FINISH. WHEN SIDEWALKS ARE POURED AFTER AWP INSTALLATION, TAKE STEPS TO COVER/PROTECT PANELS NEAR GRADE. CEMENT DRIED ON AWP CANNOT BE REMOVED. Fig. 2 7 FASTENERS ALL APPLICATIONS Fasteners must be corrosion resistant. Stainless steel or corrosion resistant screws such as hot-dipped zinc or ceramic coated are recommended. Comply with all local building codes for fastener requirements. Number 10 - 16, pan-head screws (HD .365”) were used as clip fasteners for AWP wind load testing. The minimum size for clip fasteners is #8. ՓLiÀÇw˜ˆÃ…ÃVÀiÜÃ܈̅>LÕ}iœÀy>Ì…i>` (min. head diameter 0.255”) are appropriate for face fastening locations. These must penetrate framing per the minimum requirements below. Refer to the Last Course section on page 28 for face fastening best practices. WOOD STUDS Fasteners must penetrate solid structure a minimum of 1”. METAL STUDS Screws must penetrate solid structure a minimum of 1/2”. Three threads are needed for effective grab. CONCRETE/ MASONRY Furring to Masonry: Fastener type, size, and spacing to be determined under direction of an engineer and in accordance with local building codes. AWP to Furring: Screws must penetrate wood furring a minimum of 1” or steel by at least ½”. STRUCTURAL INSULATING PANELS (SIP) One inch, full-thread, corrosion resistant wood screws must be used. Fasten starter track every 16” max. Double fastening per each Nichiha clip (minimum of 4 screws per JEL777/787 clip) is required as there are fewer or no studs to secure the system. PRE-ENGINEERED METAL BUILDINGS (PEMB) PEMB wind load/panel gauge table (see Framing & Sheathing Requirements) contingent upon use of #10-16 x 1” pan head, S/D screws. Fasteners must be spaced at no more than 12” o.c. into metal panel ribs. NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 8 ULTIMATE HORIZONTAL STARTER TRACK Starter Track serves as the foundational support for the AWP system while also providing faster and greater ease of installation. Horizontal Panels (10’): Starter Track FA 700 ULTIMATE CLIP Ultimate Clips sit on the panel shiplaps, securing AWP to the wall and distributing dead loads to the structure. Together, Ultimate Clips and Starter Track hold the back surface of the panels off the substrate to create a 10mm (3/8”) rainscreen space. JEL 777 Clip Compatible with 16mm (5/8”) AWP Joint Tab Attachments included with the Ultimate Clip are not needed with AWP-3030 installations. FINISH CLIP (OPTIONAL) The Finish Clip provides an alternative to face fastening of AWP at certain termination points where the panel shiplaps are removed. Install over 5mm Spacer. Refer to Finish Clip Usage section for general instructions. JE 310 Finish Clip – Compatible with all AWP CORRUGATED SPACER At termination points where Panel Clips cannot be used, Nichiha Corrugat- ed Spacer is required to maintain the rainscreen space and prevent panel deflection at face fastening locations such as window sills and headers. FS 1005 Spacer – 5mm FS 1010 Spacer – 10mm INSTALLATION HARDWARE & ACCESSORIES 9 SEALANT BACKERS Nichiha Sealant Backers provide exact spacing for expansion and termination joints and the recommended depth of sealant (75-80%). They provide faster installation than a foam backer rod and require less sealant. At sealant joints, use a sealant that complies with ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.). Refer to the Sealant section on page 15 for more information. Single Flange Sealant Backer: FHK 1015 – 10 mm Double Flange Sealant Backer: FH 1015 – 10 mm NICHIHA CORNERS Nichiha Corners are manufactured mitered panel corners available in the same finishes as all horizontally oriented AWP. Corners have 3-1/2” returns (face dimension). METAL TRIM Nichiha metal trim provides aesthetically pleasing design options for corners, openings, and transitions, as well as vertical joints. TRIM APPLICATIONS Corner Key Outside Corners H-Mold Vertical Joints Open Outside Corner Outside Corners J-Mold Terminations ESSENTIAL FLASHING SYSTEM APPLICATIONS Starter* Base/Clearance Concealment Compression Joint Horizontal/Compression Joints Overhang* Fascia-to-Soffit Transitions *Inside and outside corner segments are available. NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 10 PLANNING & PANEL LAYOUT To ensure a successful installation, it is important to first plan how the panels will be laid out, where compression and control joints will be located, and line of sight regarding inside corners decided. Reminder: AWP-3030 actual dimensions are metric: 455 mm (h) x 3,030 mm (l). Imperial equivalents: 17-7/8” (h) x 119-5/16” (l). Layout: AWP-3030 may only be installed in a stacked bond application. Do not stagger. Vertical Control/Expansion Joints (Pages 16 and 25): 10mm (3/8”) sealant joints that account for thermal expansion in the lateral dimension. These are often, where possible, aligned with window or door jambs, downspouts, or other features in order to minimize their appearance but recur every 119-5/16” (max) with AWP-3030. Depending on sheathing type, additional framing, furring, or blocking may be required at vertical joint locations. Horizontal/Compression Joints (Page 26): ½” (min.) horizontal, flashed break detail to allow for building compression at floor lines. Inside Corner Line of Sight (Page 18): Sealant joints at inside corners can be placed out of view from the primary line of sight of a wall. Place the sealant joint on the less-viewed corner wall. Cut Panels: In general, it is best to avoid cutting AWP to short or narrow strips and segments of less than 9”. Specifically, when an individual panel is wider than a window or other opening and is used over the head or under the sill, do not cut it to less than 9” in height. (see image A) When an opening is wider than an individual panel and two or more are needed to cap over the header or cup the sill, do not cut the panel to less than 4” in height. (image B) 9" 4" A B 11 Fig. 15 Essential Starter Flashing AWP-3030: INSTALLING THE FA 700 STARTER TRACK ALL APPLICATIONS The Ultimate Horizontal Starter Track (FA 700) must be level and attached at a minimum of 6” above finished soil grade or per local building codes (use a laser level to verify). When installing over a hard surface such as driveways or sidewalks, a 2” clearance is acceptable. Essential Starter Flashing may be installed prior to the Starter Track to conceal the clearance gap above hardscape and decking. Beginning with outside and inside corner segments, fasten Flashing at each stud location or every 10” o.c. to sill plate. Fasten Flashing inside and outside corner segments to framing on both sides, keeping at least 1” from vertical edges. Main segments will slide into/overlap the corner segments. AWP’s bottom face edge will extend ¾” below the Starter Track. Position Flashing and/or Starter Track to leave 1/4” clearance between the panel edge and Flashing. The Starter Track must be installed using corrosion resistant fasteners. Locate and mark the studs. WOOD & METAL STUDS OR FURRING Starter Track must be secured at every stud line. CONCRETE/MASONRY When installing over concrete construction, the wall must be furred out with pressure treated lumber or metal hat channel. Starter Track must be secured at each furring location. STRUCTURAL INSULATING PANELS (SIP) Secure Starter Track every 16” o.c. max. PRE-ENGINEERED METAL BUILDINGS (PEMB) Fasten Starter Track at every metal panel rib at 12” o.c. max. NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 12 GENERAL PANEL & ACCESSORY BASICS All trim, Single and Double Flange Sealant Backer should be installed before panels. Refer to Inside Corners, Doors, & Windows and Vertical Expansion Joints sections respectively. PANEL SELECTION Nichiha AWP-3030 are packaged with two panels in a pack, which are placed on pallets consisting of two stacks. Due to alternating patterns of texture and color between individual panels as well as how the panels are manufactured and packaged, it is best to install all panels from each individual stack before taking and installing panels from the second stack on the same pallet. Do not alternate installing from one stack and the second, which may result in undesirable patterns. SEALING CUT PANEL EDGES When cutting AWP, it is best to cut with the panel face down, except when cutting brick finish panels as it is easier to follow the simulated mortar lines on their face. Cut and exposed panel edges must be primed or sealed with fiber cement sealer (e.g. DryLock®) or latex paint such as Kilz Premium® or Kilz Max®. Do not use Illumination touch up paint for edge treatment due to the limited amount provided. Be sure to clean panels with a clean, dry soft cloth after cutting to prevent dust from bonding to the finish. Fig. 16 13 CUTTING PANEL CLIPS JEL777 Panel Clips are 26” long. Where full length clips can be used, they are required. However, there may be conditions where clips must be cut to accommodate panels or corner pieces in smaller areas or segments such as narrow columns, pilasters, or insets, recessed openings, or small areas between windows. Notches on the upward panel engagement flanges indicate where clips can be cut evenly into thirds. These 1/3 segments can be further reduced evenly into two or four pieces each with weep holes serving as dividing points. The smallest segment must include at least one downward panel engagement flange. Always use the widest clip segment possible.Cut with a non-ferrous saw blade on a band or chop saw. Fig. 17 Fig. 18 NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 14 FINISH CLIP USAGE The Finish Clip requires added preparation of the panels with the use of a biscuit joiner: 1. To route grooves into the top edge of a panel, use a biscuit/plate joiner, such as Makita’s PJ7000. A carbide blade is recommended. 2. Set the biscuit joiner’s angle guide at zero degrees and height to ¼”. 3. Set the depth of groove for a size 20 biscuit to ensure the grooves are wide and deep enough for JE310 clips to seat properly, ¼” from the back/unfinished face of the panel. 4. Route the cut edge with the unfinished panel surface facing up, lining the grooves up with stud locations (16” o.c. maximum). 5. The clip should fit snug but not too tightly when placed on the panel. Cut, routed panel edges must be sealed with 100% acrylic latex primer or paint. Use 5mm Spacer with JE310 Finish Clips. Panel Back Panel Front 1 4" [6 mm] 1 2" [12 mm] Fig. 19 Fig. 20 Fig. 21 Fig. 22 15 SEALANT Sealants to be used with AWP must match the following requirements: • Comply with ASTM C920 • Have a Class of 35, 50, or 100/50 (minimum 35% joint movement) • Be a polyurethane, polyurethane hybrid, or Adfast Adseal 4580 • Provide two-sided adhesion at joints OSI® QUAD® MAY NOT BE USED FOR NICHIHA EXPANSION JOINTS - It is a class 25 product. - QUAD® MAX is acceptable since it is a Class 50. Refer to the Technical Bulletin: Sealants available at Nichiha.com/resources/ technical-bulletins. SEALANT JOINTS/CAULKING Fasten Single Flange Sealant Backers at inside corners (one wall at corner), along window and door jambs, and transition points with other cladding. Fasten to framing, blocking or plywood/OSB sheathing at 12-14” o.c. with the 3/8” bump/sealant portion butting the corner or jamb. Sealant complying with ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.) is required where Single and/or Double Flange Sealant Backer is used. Refer to the sealant manufacturer’s instructions or requirements. If excess sealant adheres to panel, remove completely using a putty knife or soft cloth. Place low-adhesive tape (masking or painter’s) over the panel along the areas requiring sealant joints for a clean caulk line. Fill the gap between the panels with a color-matched/coordinating sealant which complies with ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.) standard. The Nichiha Sealant Backer allows for the proper depth of sealant (75-80%). Before removing tape, press the surface of the sealant with a caulk spatula or similar tool to ensure an even surface. Remove masking tape before sealant cures. Fig. 23 NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 16 AWP - 3030 - HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION AWP installation proceeds by working from left to right. Wood, Metal, Concrete/Masonry with Furring For AWP-3030, the left and right panel edges are flat and do not require initial cutting. The panel will fit tightly against an already installed inside corner spacer, Sealant Backer, or outside corner trim. If starting at an inside corner, predetermine which wall will include the Single Flange Sealant Backer for an inside corner detail. Consider the location to minimize the visibility of the sealant joint line. Clad the higher visibility wall without the sealant joint first so that the adjoining wall panels can terminate to it with the Single Flange Sealant Backer detail. Set first panel into the Starter Track and secure the top edge with an Ultimate Clip, placing the first clip about one inch from the left edge of the panel. Fasten clip at each stud location the clip reaches. Every clip will cover 2-3 studs and must be fastened to each. (Figure 24) Proceed along the panel to the right, placing another clip 3-4 inches from the end of the previously installed clip. DO NOT skip any studs. Fasten clip at each stud location. Each AWP-3030 long edge must be covered by four clips. (Figure 25) Since AWP-3030 do not have shiplaps on their short edges, a control joint or H-Mold trim detail is needed at each vertical joint. The vertical joint is continuous and not split up or staggered. Fasten the Double Flange Sealant Backer at vertical joints between panels. Fasten Sealant Backer on right side flange every 12- 14” to framing, blocking, or plywood/OSB sheathing. (Also see page 25.) Install next wall panel right up to the Double Flange Sealant Backer and secure with clips at each stud location. (Figure 26) Alternatively, H-Mold metal trim can be used at vertical joints for horizontal AWP-3030. This trim, as well as Nichiha Sealant Backer must be fastened to plywood/OSB sheathing, framing, furring, or blocking. Fasten metal trim every 12-16” in a staggered fashion on >ÌiÀ˜>̈˜}y>˜}ið For H-Mold, leave a 1/8” gap between the i`}iœv̅i«>˜i>˜`̅iVi˜ÌiÀy>˜}iœv the trim. (Figure 27) Verify the first course of panels is level. Large commercial buildings require checking level around the entire building. (Figure 28) Complete the second and remaining non- terminal rows in the same way. Fit panels tightly together on horizontal joints, ensuring the panel edges are properly butted together. A rubber mallet or block of wood may be used to seat the panels firmly in place and tighten downward. The Joint Tab Attachments are not used with AWP-3030. Terminal rows such as under Horizontal/Compression Joints or at the Last Course are discussed in subsequent sections of this guide. 17 STRUCTURAL INSULATING PANELS (SIP) In general, the steps mirror those for stud wall applications. However, double fastening per each Panel Clip (minimum of four screws, evenly spaced per clip) is required as there are fewer or no studs to secure the system. There must be four clips per AWP-3030 edge. PRE-ENGINEERED METAL BUILDINGS (PEMB) Refer again to general requirements concerning PEMB installations in the Framing and Sheathing Requirements section. With metal panel ribs spaced no more than 12” o.c., install AWP in the same manner as with stud wall applications but with Panel Clips fastened to each rib they reach. Screws (#10 x 1”) applied at no more than 12” o.c. There must be four clips per AWP-3030 long edge. Fig. 24 Fig. 25 Fig. 26 Fig. 28Fig. 27 NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 18 3/8" SEALANT JOINT OVER SINGLE FLANGE SEALANT BACKER NICHIHA PANEL NICHIHA CLIP INSIDE CORNERS, WINDOWS, & DOORS ALL APPLICATIONS Appropriate flashing and moisture management best practices must be used to prevent moisture penetration at all inside corners, doors, and windows. Refer to window/door manufacturer requirements and local building codes. Cut and exposed panel edges must be primed or sealed with acrylic latex fiber cement sealer or paint. INSIDE CORNERS SINGLE FLANGE SEALANT BACKER Decide primary line of sight in order to minimize visibility of the sealant joint. Install the panel on the front wall (more visible) first. Ensure panel is butted up tight to the inside corner wall. Fasten the Single Flange Sealant Backer onto the side wall right up against the front wall panel’s edge at 12-14” o.c. Install side wall panel directly against the sealant backer and secure with Ultimate Clip. Fill space with sealant (Figures 29, 29A,B). TRIM BOARDS Install trim boards at inside corner first. Then add Single Flange Sealant Backer and butt panel edges to it. Add ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.) compliant sealant to the gap. Fig. 29A Fig. 29 Fig. 29B 19 WINDOW SILLS JE310 FINISH CLIP For recessed windows, add a flashing where the panels will terminate so the top edge is covered or capped at the sill. Remove the top ship-lapped edge of the panel at the window sill, cutting the panel to the required height, and route grooves into panel top at appropriate width to coincide with framing members. (Refer to Finish Clip Usage for biscuit joiner info.) Clean any dust off the panel. For windows narrower than a panel, only remove the portion of the panel edge directly under the window but accounting for a minimum ¼” gap at both jambs. Cut, routed panel edges must be sealed with 100% acrylic latex primer or paint, such as Kilz Premium or Kilz Max. Panel edge should be spaced a minimum 3/8” below a flush or overhanging window sill to accommodate the Finish Clip. Fasten FS1005 Corrugated Spacer (5mm) at stud locations before setting panel into place. Seat Finish Clips into grooves and fasten at each stud location, through Spacer, to secure panel into place. (Figure 30) If the top edge of the panel is fully sheltered under the sill, it is not necessary to seal the 3/8” gap. For better system performance, Nichiha recommends the vented approach. Fig. 30 FINISH CLIP OVER 5MM SPACER NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 20 FACE FASTENING (J-MOLD OPTIONAL) For recessed windows, add a flashing where the panels will terminate so that the top edge is covered or capped at the sill. As needed to match the window width, remove panel top ship-lapped edge, cutting the panel to the required height to fit below the window sill, leaving a ¼” gap between the top of the cut panel edge and the window sill or trim board. Cut, routed panel edges must be sealed with 100% acrylic latex primer or paint. Clean any dust off the panel with a clean, soft, dry cloth. Add FS1010 Corrugated Spacer (10mm) at stud locations, set the panel on the clips of the panel(s) below, and then face fasten top, cut edge of panel at the sill. Keep screws 1” below panel edge. This will avoid cracking or breaking the panel. Best practice is to pre-drill the panel before fastening through low-adhesive tape applied to panel face to be removed after patching and touch up. If the top edge of the panel is fully sheltered under the sill, it is not necessary to seal the 1/4” gap. Nichiha prefers a vented approach. J-Mold or other trim channels can be included at a sill but must be placed on the panel edge prior to face fastening panel so that the trim is fastened simultaneously. WINDOW/DOOR JAMBS A minimum gap of 1/4” is required when butting panels into windows, doors, and trim boards. Refer to window manufacturer guidelines for spacing trims around windows. SINGLE FLANGE SEALANT BACKER: Install the Single Flange Sealant Backer first, butting to the door/window jamb or trim pieces prior to installing the panels. The Single Flange Sealant Backer must be fastened a minimum of 12” to 14” o.c. to studs, blocking, or structural sheathing. Cut panel to appropriate width. Remember to clean freshly cut panels with a clean, soft, dry cloth. Install panels and fill gap with ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.) compliant sealant. J-MOLD: Pre-install J-Mold trim with a ¼” gap between it and the window/door jamb, or per window manufacturer instructions. Panels must fit completely within trim, with no exposed panel edges, but leaving a 1/8” space between panel edge and J-Mold. Lastly, add foam backer rod and sealant to the ¼” gap between the J-Mold and jamb. Fig. 32 Fig. 31 Single Flange Sealant Backer 21 NICHIHA CORNERS AT RECESSED JAMBS: Nichiha Corners can be used to wrap recessed window jambs. Corners have returns of 3-1/2” (face dimension). Cut the pieces as needed for shallower returns but of sufficient depth for use of a clip segment. Wrap the base of the jamb with cut pieces of Starter Track (or FS1010 Spacer if face fastening). Install Corner pieces at jamb prior to main panels using cut Panel Clips (refer to Cutting Panel Clips section). Cut clips must retain at least one downward panel engagement flange. Install Single Flange Sealant Backer with the sealant bump against the Corner piece, fastening at 12” - 14” o.c. along the fastening flange. Where Corner pieces meets the termination point at the window, leave minimum ¼” gap and add ½” closed-cell backer rod and sealant. (Figure 33) WINDOW/DOOR HEADERS Starter Track: When starting a course of whole panels above a window or door, add flashing and Starter Track at the header, installed with fasteners at each framing member. (Figure 34) Face Fastening: When adding a cut panel above the opening, install flashing and Spacer first and then face fasten panels at each framing member. Add tape to seal flashing to WRB. Keep fasteners a min. 1” from edge.

NICHIHA CORNERS: Install Nichiha Corners prior to panels. Corners may only be used in vertical applications. Set Corner on the Starter Track and secure with two 1-1/2” cut Ultimate Clips that each retain a downward panel engagement flange. Refer to Cutting Panel Clips section. Place one clip on each side of the Corner and secure with fasteners into framing/ structure. Place the next Corner on top of the first, fitting the ship-lapped edges together over the clips. Secure the top edge in the same manner with two Ultimate Clip 1-1/2” segments. (Figure A) Continue up the outside corner, stacking and securing the Corner pieces. The top Corner will be cut to the appropriate height and face fastened over 10mm Spacer. Add Double Flange Sealant Backer behind the Corners on both sides, all the way down from the top of the wall section to the Starter Track. Secure Sealant Backer to structure every 12-14” on the exposed fastening flanges. (Figure B) After all the panels have been installed, apply ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.) compliant sealant to the Sealant Backers. 23 A B 1-1/2” Cut Ultimate Clip Double Flange Sealant Backer NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 24 FIBER CEMENT & PVC TRIM BOARDS Nichiha manufactures a full line of fiber cement trim boards - NichiTrim™, which are available in the Southeast U.S. Refer to Nichiha.com for more information. When panels are to be butted to fiber cement, wood or other trim pieces, use Nichiha Single Flange Sealant Backer between them. Apply sealant to joint width. Sealant must be compliant with ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.). METAL & VINYL TRIM Install trim channel, such as Nichiha Corner Key or Open Outside Corner, in accordance with manufacturer’s installation instructions. Install prior to panels and fasten with corrosion resistant fasteners through trim flanges every 12-16” into studs or corner blocking. Stagger fasteners on alternating sides. Fit panels into channel trim so that panel edges are not exposed. Leave 1/8” space between panel edge and center flange of the trim. (Figure 40) Nichiha metal trim pieces are each 10 feet in length. To cut metal trim, use a non-ferrous carbide miter saw blade. When butting/ stacking metal trim pieces, add a bead of polyurethane sealant at the seam/joint. Metal trim can be pre-finished when purchased to match Illumination Series color(s). Otherwise, for field painting metal trim, use Direct to Metal (DTM) paint. See Tamlyn’s XtremeTrim Painting Guide. Fig. 40 Corner Key 25 NON-90-DEGREE CORNERS Corners other than 90 degrees can be achieved with custom metal trim, butting panels to trim board with a minimum ¼” sealant gap, or with the use of Double Flange Sealant Backer (refer to Vertical Control/ Expansion Joint section) to set cut panel edges at the desired corner angle. Miter cut panel edges as needed to create a uniform sealant joint. The Double Flange Sealant Backer detail can be utilized to accommodate use of AWP on segmented, radius-like walls. Do not attempt to curve AWP. Contact the Nichiha Technical Department for assistance. VERTICAL CONTROL/EXPANSION JOINTS ALL APPLICATIONS Vertical Control/Expansion Joints or H-Mold (see pages 16-17) are required between each AWP-3030 installed horizontally.

Install vertical control joint (Nichiha Double Flange Sealant Backer) to butt up against panels at a pre-determined joint location and secure to substrate on one side (the right side flange) at 12” - 14” o.c. Double Flange Sealant Backer must be fastened to plywood/OSB sheathing, framing/furring member (added if necessary to pre-planned joint locations), or blocking. Panel edges should have a tight fit against the Sealant Backer. Install the next panel to the joint and secure with Panel Clips. Apply low-adhesive tape along the length of the panel edges to protect from sealant and for a smoother look when the sealant is applied and tape removed. Apply ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.) compliant sealant into the expansion joint, starting at the bottom and pushing sealant into the gap. Add framing/blocking to fasten Sealant Backer and panel edges Fig. 41 NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 26 HORIZONTAL/COMPRESSION JOINTS ALL APPLICATIONS Project desigers must account for building compression when planning the cladding layout and incorporate horizontal/ compression joints as appropriate. Nichiha is not liable for panel damage due to building compression. In general, Nichiha recommends such joints at each floor level. With metal framing projects of more than three stories or 45 feet, add a joint approximately every 25 feet. For wood framing projects of three stories or “œÀi]>œˆ˜ÌˆÃÀiµÕˆÀi`>Ìi>V…yœœÀ° Avoid spanning floor lines with panels at joints. Please contact Nichiha Technical Department for assistance. Installing a Horizontal Compression Joint Install Essential Compression Joint Flashing or heavy gauge z-shaped metal flashing or drip cap over the top edge of the course of panels terminating under the horizontal compression joint location. Fasten Essential Flashing at each stud location. A best practice is to add flashing tape to cover the top edge of the flashing and its fasteners. Top ship-lapped edge of the bottom panel is cut and secured by face fastening (1” below panel cut edge) or use of the Finish Clip (JE310) with the appropriate Spacer behind. Install Starter Track above trim/z-flashing such that the next course of panels sit at least 1/2 inch above the course below it. Remember the bottom ship-lapped edge extends 3/4” below Starter, so the Starter will need to be installed at least 1-1/4” above the edge of the panel course below the joint. Check for level. (Figure 42) Continue to install panels according to these guidelines with compression joints at the appropriate elevation(s). Fig. 42 Essential Compression Joint Flashing 27 GARAGE DOORS & OTHER LARGE OPENINGS ALL APPLICATIONS Install Starter Track 1” above garage door casing. Establish a level line from the bottom of the Starter Track out to the side on both ends with a laser level. Use this line to measure down the wall (each side of garage) to attach the Starter Track so that the panels will meet at the proper height. Use Spacer (FS 1010) behind the panel at the bottom course, which will be scribed to the contour of the surface. Panels at the bottom course of the garage door opening must be face fastened to the studs. When face fastening, always fasten at least 1” from all panel edges to avoid panel cracking or breakage. PENETRATIONS, RAILINGS, & SIGNAGE Openings for small penetrations for pipes or conduits may be cut through a panel with the hole sealed with ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.) compliant sealant. For larger penetrations greater than 1.5”, it is best to block or frame out the opening. Along the jambs of the opening install Single Flange Sealant Backer. Cut panel edge as needed to butt to Sealant Backer and add recommended sealant. Underneath the opening block out, install FS1010 Spacer as needed for face fastening panel edge at framing locations. Terminate panel with ¼” gap. Sealant here is optional, depending on the depth of the blocking. Above the penetration, add flashing and install FS1010 Spacer as needed for face fastening panel edge at framing locations. Ensure minimum ¼” gap between bottom of panel edge and penetration blocking. Keep any face fasteners 1” away from panel edges. If installing railings or signage over AWP, ensure fasteners are secured through to framing or other structural support. Do not fasten any attachment only to panels. Level line - measure down from here to place lower Starter Track Starter Track 1" above garage door casing Starter Track Corrugated Spacer Fig. 43 Fig. 44 NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 28 LAST COURSE ALL APPLICATIONS Fasten Spacer (FS 1010) to studs at the top of the last panel course.

Fill counter-sunk fastener holes with exterior Vi“i˜ÌˆÌˆœÕÃwiÀ]ÃÕV…>Ã,i>`Þ*>ÌV…Á and later dab touch-up paint with cotton swabs. Remove painter’s tape. Alternatively, utilize the Finish Clip instead of face fastening. Cut panels horizontally to properly align with the roof line or transition point height. Use biscuit joiner to route notches into this cut edge, spaced to coincide with stud locations. Add 5mm corrugated Spacer (FS 1005) at Finish Clip fastening/stud locations prior to fastening clips. Set panels into place and seat/ fasten a clip at each stud location. Cover top panel row edge with roof cap/ coping, where applicable. GABLE & OVERHANG Allow a minimum of 1” clearance (as per local building codes) above a roof line. At top, cut the panel to follow the slope of the gable or overhang. When installing soffit, the wall panels should be installed first, with the soffit installed over the panels. Panels installed along gable or overhang edges must be face fastened. When adding face screws, apply fasteners at least 1” from any panel edge. This will avoid cracking or breaking of the panel. (Figure 46) All face-fastened panels must be shimmed out with FS 1010 Spacer. Seal all cut panel edges with 100% acrylic primer or paint. Do not leave any panel edges exposed. Clean cut panels with a clean, soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Essential Overhang Flashing may be used at the base of overhangs/bump-outs or porte- cocheres. Prior to panel installation, fasten Overhang Flashing at each stud location, beginning with corner segments. Main segments will slide under/overlap corner segments.

After first piece is secured, add Joint Clip, fastening through both it and the first main segment. The next main segment will slide behind the Joint Clip. Position Overhang Flashing so that its bottom/ return flange butts to or overlaps soffit. The bottom return portion must extend beyond the face of the facia substrate (Figure 47). SLOPED GRADE/ PANELS BELOW STARTER TRACK Where grade is sloped, begin with Starter Track at lowest possible continual level line and install as directed in this guide. To clad below Starter Track and to scribe to angled grade, take the following steps: Add FS1010 Spacer below Starter Track. Below the Starter, if installing more than one course of panels, install the full-sized course up under the Starter and fasten upside-down Panel Clips underneath, with every framing/ furring member covered by a clip. Face fasten top edge through corrugated Spacer. Keep fasteners 1” from panel edge. Add the next course and fasten upside-down clips unless that panel or row is the final/ terminal, cut/scribed panel or row. Face- fasten the bottom/cut course with backing corrugated Spacer. Maintain minimum clearances above grade: 2” above hardscape, 6” above soil. (Figure 48) Paint, prime, or otherwise seal all cut, exposed panel edges. Clean panels after cutting with clean, dry, soft cloth to remove dust. If installing over a masonry/cmu foundation, furring is required. This should be taken into consideration when planning the depth of the exterior wall and cladding above so that the entire wall will have a uniform depth.

When cleaning panels, use no more than 400 psi of water pressure at 10” to 12” away. Do not pressure wash Illumination panels. To clean heavily soiled areas, a mild household detergent and/or soft bristle brush may be required. Do not allow any detergent/cleaner to dry on panels. Rinse immediately after cleaning. PAINT TOUCH-UP Touch up paint must be exterior grade 100% acrylic latex and can be color matched by taking a panel sample to your local paint or home improvement store. One gallon of Illumination Series touch-up paint is supplied with your custom color panel order. Do not use for edge coating/sealing for larger projects. Isolate touch-up locations with low-adhesive/ painter’s tape. Where face fasteners have been used and patched by cementitious filler, use a cotton swab to lightly dab touch-up paint. For scratches, use a cotton swab for small ones or 1” foam brush for longer ones, again using a dabbing motion rather than brushing in order to minimize the amount of paint applied. REMOVAL OF EXTERIOR ACRYLIC LATEX PAINT Wet Paint Removal - While the paint is still wet, flush the area with clean water, using mild abrasion with a clean cloth or soft brush. Semi-Dry Paint Removal - If paint has set, but not dried, flush and clean as above, followed by light scrubbing with alcohol to remove any remaining paint residue. Rinse with water and a clean cloth. Dry Paint Removal - Please refer to paint- removal guide in the next section. 31 OTHER PAINT & GRAFFITI REMOVAL The following products have been tested on Nichiha panels to aid in the removal of graffiti type markings.* These citrus-based products can also be used for basic panel cleaning purposes. The panels were sprayed with an indoor/outdoor aerosol spray paint and left to dry overnight, and then the paint removal products were applied following the manufacturer’s guidelines. All products tested achieved good results. However, the outcome may vary depending on the amount of paint that needs to be removed. Be sure to follow all manufacturer’s guidelines and first test in an inconspicuous area before working on a larger area. Do NOT use these cleaners with Illumination Series. *Nichiha is not liable for any damage caused by the use of these cleaners.

This will help protect the surrounding area of the panel and aide in creating a more polished, clean repair. Lightly brush/abrade the surface within the taped off area in order to remove any loose material. Carefully fill and smooth the resultant prepped area with cementitious patching material such as MH Ready Patch. Allow to dry/cure fully. Gently smooth the patch and then apply touch-up paint to the affected area with a cotton swab. Allow touch-up paint to dry and remove the tape. NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 32 PANEL REPLACEMENT Set the depth of the circular saw blade slightly deeper than the panel so the saw blade does not cut into the building wrap or sheathing. Make additional cuts into the damaged panel and break into pieces for easier removal of the damaged panel. (Figure 49) Remove damaged panel. (Figure 50) Cut 3/16” off back side ship-lapped edge at bottom of panel.* (Figure 51) If necessary, cut the panel to the appropriate width.

The thicker panels provide a high quality look that matches the persona of this luxury complex. And Nichiha’s installed price—within one dollar per square foot of the competing cement siding product—easily justiwed the clear upgrade in performance. But the developer wanted ENDI to stand out, with a sleek, modern design aesthetic. Nichiha’s panel thickness offers durable performance, and the clip installation system provided assurance that the panels would be installed efwciently, correctly and securely. ENDI is built on a slope, and the side of the development facing Lake Superior stands six stories tall, giving everyone access to stunning views. But this also means the structure faces the very worst that Mother Nature can dish out. Frigid temperatures and 90 mile-per-hour winds are not uncommon. Building exteriors simply must be durable, which explains the common use of brick in the area. When you build on the scenic shores of Lake Superior, stunning views contrast with the harsh winters that these buildings must endure. But ENDI, a $36 million development by Harbor Bay Real Estate Advisors, still needed to look like the luxury apartment project it was intended to be. That’s why DSGW Architects selected Nichiha over traditional wber cement siding products—for looks and performance. And the price was right, too. DSGW had speciwed Nichiha products on past projects, ºbut we had really used it more as a statement piece,” said John Erickson, architect for the Minnesota-based wrm. ºWe wanted a certain look for ENDI, but at over 250,000 square feet, this was a big project. We didn’t think we could afford to use Nichiha for the full structure, so we originally planned to use another cementitious siding product.” The mixed use development features commercial tenants on the ground yoor and 143 luxury apartments above, below and on the ground yoor. Amenities include a wtness center, clubroom, technology area, private chef’s kitchen for entertaining, outdoor terrace with a bocce ball court and more. The architects knew the exterior needed to reyect the high end nature of the complex, so they combined VintageWood (installed vertically and horizontally) with Illumination panels (oriented horizontally) for a unique look that combines the sleek aesthetic of Illumination’s smooth, satin wnish with the natural warmth from VintageWood, all from one supplier. ENDI APARTMENTS IN DULUTH, MN Challenge Solution Results Architect: DSGW Architects Contractor: Northridge Construction Siding Installer: Webster Construction Location: Duluth, MN Products: Nichiha Illumination Series and Vintagewood™ Panels Scheduled Completion: Winter 2016 PROJECT DETAILS They chose both Bark and Cedar colors for the 10-foot VintageWood panels, and used the Color Xpressions system to paint the 6-foot Illumination panels to match Sherwin-Williams colors Naval, Dovetail and Iron "re. ºWith Nichiha, we were able to get the colors we wanted,” said Katherine Gerzina, designer with DSGW. ºThis made it so much nicer, because we could choose virtually any color. Custom colors with the other siding product would have really blown the budget.” Erickson added that Nichiha also gave them the commercial residential aesthetic they wanted, ºwith a cleaner, sleeker, more contemporary look and a thicker, more substantial product. The other siding option would have looked more like a typical house, which was not the quality look we wanted.” Duluth is a brick marketÆ ºthat’s the familiar material here,” added Gerzina. ºSo by combining brick on the lower level with both Nichiha products above, we got to combine old school, traditional brick with the new, sleek, modern look of Nichiha. They really complement each other and gave us nice design yexibility.” While DSGW wanted an expensive look, they still needed to keep things real. Erickson said, ºNorthridge, the contractor, wisely factored in the fact that the competing product would have had to be installed over furring strips. The pricing for the Nichiha system already included everything. When they considered all costs, Nichiha and the other siding ended up being within about one dollar per square foot of each other.” Erickson admitted that they were surprised to learn that the two were so close in price. ºWhen the developer realized they would only pay one dollar more per square foot for a much better performing, better designed, better looking product, the decision was made. Plus, we got the value add from the thicker panels with Nichiha.” DSGW had originally considered specifying metal panels, but were happy to simplify with Nichiha. ºBy not using the metal panels, you get rid of one more step in the construction process,” said Erickson. ºThe same crews installed both the VintageWood and the Illumination panels; they use the same installation system. It also saved us from having to design different material interfaces, so the detailing process was also simpler.” He added, ºThere was so much value added when we were able to design ENDI with Nichiha because of the thickness of the product, the custom colors and the overall wnish.” The resulting design gives the developer a sleek, sophisticated structure that will perform, even under Duluth’s harsh weather.

Prewnishing also saves their contractors time at the jobsite, allowing Kum & Go to focus on more important things—like growing their business. Although Kum & Go can’t always use the same contractor, the Nichiha system is easy to install; local contractors can fol- low the installation video instructions on Nichiha’s website. Plus, both Illumination and VintageWood panels use the same rainscreen system, making installation even simpler. Kum & Go operates in 11 states and is building more than one store each month, so speed is important but so is consistency. They wanted a repeatable look, something they could use across all new stores to provide consistency in their exterior design. They also wanted a product that could be installed on all stores at all locations. In the competitive convenience store market, brand consistency goes a long way. So when Kum & Go, the Iowa-based convenience store chain, set out to build 23 new stores featuring their new Marketplace design concept in 2016, they knew they needed to do two things\ differentiate their stores in the market and do so with a unique look that would be readily recognizable and easily repeated. ºEverything about our new Marketplace design is different—both inside and out,” said Todd Felger, architectural design manager for Kum & Go. ºWe wanted to take things to the next level, so our new store designs feature contemporary exteriors with wood accents—all from Nichiha.” Kum & Go already operates more than 400 stores in 11 states, so healthy growth is nothing new. But most of their previous prototypical stores featured brick exteriors. ºFrom our early development of the Marketplace design concepts, we knew that we wanted a wber cement exterior,” said Felger. ºWe wanted a certain look, and we wanted to move to a different cladding material because of the labor involved with brick. So we did some research, and BRR Architecture brought the Nichiha material to our attention. Then Nichiha’s region manager came to Des Moines and built mock-up panels to show us what the products could do.” Kum & Go wanted a material that would brighten their exteriors, and because some Nichiha products can be pre- wnished, they could have any color they wanted. They chose 16-inch Illumination panels painted Sherwin Williams Eider White, accented by a stripe around the building with panels painted Repose Gray. Then they added a warm accent of VintageWood panels in cedar. KUM & GO STORE #0979 IN ROCK SPRINGS, WY Challenge Solution Results Architect: BRR Architecture Contractor: Hudspeth & Associates Location Rock Springs, WY Product Nichiha Illumination & VintageWood PROJECT DETAILS ºNichiha prewnished the panels so we eliminated the painting aspect of construction,” said Felger. ºHaving the wnish facto- ry-applied in a controlled environment removes the variability of jobsite conditions and we eliminate painting expense. Siding trades also have lower hourly rates than masonry; it’s much simpler without multiple subcontractors. º Felger added, ºPlus with Nichiha, we’re not required to ºtent the building” or use propane heaters in the winter months to keep it warm. You can install Nichiha in all types of weather, even when your wngers can’t move, which describes most Midwest winters.” While looks matter, so does performance, said Felger. ºWeather, wind loading and durability are always a consideration. "ur stores get a lot of trafwc, so we needed siding that will stand up over time. Nichiha has been a durable material for us.” Moisture management is also important to Kum & Go, and Felger said they appreciate that Nichiha comes as an engineered system. ºTheir rain screen means we don’t have to rely on caulk joints at every panel; moisture manage- ment takes place behind the siding. Plus, Nichiha comes as a complete sys- tem, built to be installed a certain way with all the fasteners, rails and brack- ets. We don’t need to make things up as we go, which is so important as we build these stores across the 11 states where we do business. "ur contractors follow Nichiha’s instructions, which are simple and easy to understand.” As a fast growing company, simplicity matters. ºEase of installation, prewn- ished colors… these are huge pluses for us in terms of the repeatability of it all,” said Felger. ºWe have a prototypical design for a reason; we want to build multiple stores in multiple markets. If we build wve stores, they’re all going to look alike. If you take one piece of Nichiha panel and hold it up against another store, it’s a perfect match. It’s nice that we can rely on that consistency, which allows us to move on to other things.” Felger added, ºKum & Go will be building about 25 to 30 stores a year in the future, and Nichiha will be part of that growth. They’re a great partner.” “We wanted consistency, so as people are driving down the road, they can say ‘oh, there’s a Kum & Go; we know what that looks like and we know what we can expect inside that store.’ Nichiha gives us that brand consistency.” – Todd Felger, Kum & Go About Nichiha USA: U.S. manufacturing plant in Macon, Ga., responding to an increase in demand foƌĮďĞƌĐĞŵĞŶƚƉƌoducts in the nichiha.com BRR Architecture Nichiha Case Study nichiha.com 6465 E Johns Crossing Johns Creek, GA 30097 Media Contact: Brenda Collons 425.277.9951©2016 Nichiha USA, Inc.

The addition will be in-filled between the two existing buildings. The existing structures are an aggregate of 24,843 square feet, and include 14,457 square feet of office and 10,386 of warehouse. The property is zoned Commercial-General and is located within the Shoreland Overlay District for Elm Creek, which flows along the east of the site. Property to the north and west is similarly zoned, the apartment building west of the property is zoned Commercial-General, property to the south is zoned Rural Residential, and property to east is zoned urban residential. An aerial of the site can be found at the bottom of the page. Maxxon Page 2 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting Because the property is located within the Shoreland Overlay District, hardcover is limited to 25% of the lot. The existing hardcover on the site exceeds this limitation. The applicant proposes to remove bituminous parking lot and replace with Grasspave, a pervious surfacing, in an amount greater than new hardcover. Lot Combination The subject property is platted as three lots which are 0.73, 0.67, and 0.61 acres in area. The resulting lot will be 2.06 acres in size. It appears that the property has been being utilized as a single lot because the northern existing building is constructed across one of the property lines and a bridge is constructed over the other property line. However, staff cannot find record of a formal lot combination. The proposed infill construction between the two structures is proposed across one of the property lines. The following table compares the proposed combined lots to the dimensional standards of the CG zoning district: CG District Requirement Proposed Combined Lot Minimum Lot Size 1 acre 2.06 acre Minimum Lot Width 100 feet 305 feet Minimum Lot Depth 120 feet 305 feet Minimum Front Yard Setback 25 feet 23.3 feet Minimum Rear Yard Setback 20 feet 134 feet Minimum Side Yard Setback 10 feet 40 feet Setback from Major Collector (Hamel Road) 50 feet 28.1 feet It appears that the lot, as combined, would exceed the dimensional standards of the CG zoning district. The existing structure appears to be 1.7 feet closer than the required 25-foot setback from the Hickory Drive right-of-way, in the location where the cul-de-sac is located. The structure is also located 28.1 feet from Hamel Road, where the CG district currently requires a 50-foot setback from Major Collector roadways. The proposed lot combination does not affect these setback nonconformities. The following criteria are described in the subdivision ordinance: “In the case of all subdivisions, the City shall deny approval of a preliminary or final plat if one or a combination of the following findings are made: (a) That the proposed subdivision is in conflict with the general and specific plans of the city, or that the proposed subdivision is premature, as defined in Section 820.28. (b) That the physical characteristics of this site, including but not limited to topography, vegetation, soils, susceptibility to flooding, water storage, drainage and retention, are such that the site is not suitable for the type of development or use contemplated. (c) That the site is not physically suitable for the proposed density of development or does not meet minimum lot size standards. (d) That the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are likely to cause substantial environmental damage. Maxxon Page 3 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting (e) That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements are likely to cause serious public health problems. (f) That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will conflict with public or private streets, easements or right-of-way. It does not appear that the proposed lot combination would meet these findings. As a result, staff recommends approval of the lot combination. Proposed Site Plan The proposed addition is 5,190 square feet and is proposed between the two existing structures. The addition includes 2907 s.f. of office and 2283 s.f. of warehouse. The proposed location of the addition appears to meet the setback requirements of the CG zoning district. As noted above, the existing structures do not conform with setbacks in two instances, but the addition would meet all relevant setbacks. Also, as noted above, the existing site exceeds the maximum hardcover permitted in the Shoreland Overlay District. The applicant proposes to replace existing bituminous parking areas with Grasspave pervious surfacing in order to result in a net reduction of hardcover on the site. Following is a summary comparing the proposed addition and the proposed building after the addition to the dimensional standards of the CG district. CG District Requirement Proposed Addition (only) Proposed structure w/ addition Minimum Front Yard Setback 25 feet 47.2 feet 23.3 feet Minimum Rear Yard Setback 20 feet 161 feet 134 feet Minimum Side Yard Setback 10 feet 172 feet 40 feet Setback from Major Collector (Hamel Road) 50 feet 89 feet 28.1 feet Setback from Residential (east) 50 feet 161 feet 134 feet Setback from Residential (south) 50 feet 89 feet 28.1 feet -61.1 feet w/ROW Minimum Parking Setbacks Front Yard 25 feet 5 feet (Hamel Road) Rear and Side Yard 5 feet 30 feet Residential (west) 25 feet 25 feet Minimum setback from OHW 50 feet 148 feet 120 feet Parking from Elm Creek 50 feet 43 feet Maximum Hardcover 25%50% (reduced from 50.2%) Building Height 30 feet 20 feet 20 feet As displayed in the table, various aspects of the existing facility do not conform with current regulations. The property was developed in the 1980s and various regulations have changed since that time. State law and City ordinance allow nonconformities to be continued and improved, but not expanded. The proposed addition meets all relevant dimensional standards, provided the additional hardcover is offset by a reduction of hardcover elsewhere on the site. The Shoreland Overlay District restricts grading and vegetation removal within the shore impact zone, 50 feet from Elm Creek. The applicant proposes no disturbance to this area. Maxxon Page 4 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting Building Materials and Design The Commercial zoning district includes the following architectural standards. The Planning Commission and Council can discuss whether the proposed addition is consistent with the standards or recommend conditions if not. Materials The Commercial zoning districts requires: “All exterior building materials shall be durable and meet the following standards: (a) A minimum of 30 percent of the building exterior shall be brick, natural stone, stucco (not Exterior Insulation and Finish System or similar product), copper, or glass. (b) A maximum of 70 percent may be decorative concrete, split face (rock face) decorative block, and/or decorative pre-cast concrete panels. Decorative concrete shall be color impregnated in earth tones (rather than painted) and shall be patterned to create a high- quality terrazzo, brick, stucco, or travertine appearance. (c) A maximum of 20 percent may be wood, metal (excluding copper), or fiber cement lap siding, if used as accent materials which are integrated into the overall building design” The applicant proposes to utilize a combination of brick, stone, and glass in the exterior of the proposed addition, which meets the requirements of the district. The applicant has also requested that the City consider amending its code to permit fiber cement panels to re-clad the existing concrete building. This request will be discussed in a separate report. Modulation The Commercial districts require: “buildings shall be modulated a minimum of once per 40 feet of building perimeter to avoid long, monotonous building walls. This modulation may include varying building heights, building setbacks, or building materials/design. The portions of the building which exceed two stories or 35 feet shall be set back a minimum of six feet from the lower portion of the building.” The addition is less than 40 feet wide and is proposed to incorporate materials which provide modulation from the existing materials on the two existing structures. Fenestration and Transparency The Commercial districts require: “Building elevations which face a public street shall include generous window coverage. Alternative architectural elements may be approved by the City when windows are not practical.” The east elevation of the addition includes approximately 27% windows. The west elevation of the addition includes almost 30% window coverage if you include the windows proposed in the new loading dock doors, or 19% window coverage without. Multi-sided Architecture The Commercial districts require: “any rear or side building elevation which faces a public street, an interior access drive for the development, or a residential zoning district, shall include design and architectural elements of a quality generally associated with a front façade. The elevation(s) shall be compatible with the front building elevation. Additional signage shall be permitted for an elevation facing a public street or interior access drive, as regulated within the Maxxon Page 5 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting sign ordinance. Multi-sided architecture shall not be required in situations where the rear or side building elevation is fully screened from view from the adjacent street or residential property.” Staff believes that it may be difficult to argue that the new loading docks on the western elevation meet this requirement, although the applicant has proposed attractive carriage doors to meet it. With the exception of the loading dock doors, staff believes the remaining characteristics of the western elevation do exhibit multi-sided architecture. Stormwater The applicant proposes to off-set the additional hardcover from the addition by converting a larger portion of the existing parking lot to pervious Grasspave surfacing. Because hardcover will be reduced, the City’s stormwater management ordinance is not triggered. However, because the Grasspave surface is assumed to be pervious, ongoing maintenance is a requirement. As such, staff recommends that an agreement related to the construction and maintenance be required in a form similar to the City’s stormwater maintenance agreement. The City Engineer believes it is appropriate to designate the Grasspave surface as pervious for the sake of the Shoreland Overlay hardcover limitation, provided that the subgrade material is installed to provide sufficient water storage and that long-term maintenance is accounted for. The Grasspave surfacing also has the potential to provide stormwater quality improvements above current conditions. Historical aerial photographs have shown evidence of past washing of vehicles, equipment or other materials in the loading dock areas which created the potential for illicit discharge of chemicals to Elm Creek. Staff recommends a condition reinforcing the fact that the City’s illicit discharge ordinance applies and that no outdoor cleaning of vehicles or materials is permitted. Wetlands and Floodplains Elm Creek is located along the eastern boundary of the property. A “Zone A” floodplain is located adjacent to the creek, but is far downslope from any proposed work. No impacts are proposed. Wetlands are adjacent to Elm Creek in the location as well. A Site Plan Review triggers the City’s wetland protection ordinance. A buffer with an average width of 30-feet in width will be required upslope from the wetland. Staff recommends this as a condition of approval. Transportation/Access/Loading The primary access to the property is from Hamel Road, where most of the parking is located. The property also has three curb cuts on Hickory Drive, which serve loading docks. Hamel Road is designated as a major collector. The City Engineer has not recommended that the 5,900 square foot addition would cause capacity concern or necessitate any improvements. As noted above, three curb cuts on Hickory Drive provide access to seven existing loading docks. Trucks cannot circulate on the site and need to back off of Hickory Drive in order to access the loading docks. The southern curb cut substantially exceeds the maximum width of 32 Maxxon Page 6 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting feet permitted. The applicant proposes two additional loading docks to be served from this existing curb cut. The Commercial zoning districts requires: 1) “No loading dock shall be visible, to the fullest extent possible, from any residential zoning district. Screening may be accomplished through one or more of the following: using buildings to screen, opaque landscaping, decorative walls, or decorative fencing.” 2) No loading dock shall encroach into the required setbacks for the front yard or a side yard adjacent to a street. Loading docks shall be located, and landscaping shall be utilized so as to minimize visibility from streets.” The existing loading docks on the west side of the structure do not appear to meet these requirements. The applicant proposes to add 2 additional loading dock berths which would be unscreened from Hickory Drive and adjacent property and would appear to be located within the required setback from Hickory Drive. The applicant will provide information related to how they feel the new docks will comply with relevant code. Staff has recommended that the existing and new loading docks be reoriented so that there is no increase in the amount of loading docks beyond existing conditions. Parking The property includes 55 parking spaces, and parking also tends to occur in the loading dock areas of the property. The existing site appears to fall short of minimum parking standards, even before the addition. Staff calculates that the existing minimum parking requirement per ordinance is 64 spaces. The property owner states that parking has never been a concern based on their operations, and, in fact, the parking lot is often half empty. The property owner also owns property across Hickory Drive at 3575 Hickory Drive. The owner utilizes the existing structure on the site for warehousing, and there is also outside storage on the property which is intended to be moved into the expanded warehouse. As such, the owner is proposing joint/shared parking on the property across the street. Existing parking areas exist on the 3575 Hickory property, and the applicant has submitted a plan which shows that a total of 24 parking spaces could be accommodated (the applicant’s plan shows 31spaces, but 7 are in front of the garage doors on the existing structure). Code would only require 5 parking spaces for the existing structure on the property. The 19 parking spaces would more than covered the required additional parking created from the addition (13 spaces), and comes within 2 spaces of meeting the required parking by ordinance for both structures after the addition. Staff recommends a parking easement be recorded against the 3575 Hickory Drive property to preserve the 19 parking spaces for the use of the Maxxon property. The ordinance does permit the City to grant flexibility to the minimum parking requirements as follows: “A waiver may be granted by the City to reduce the required number of parking spaces. Parking reduction waivers shall be recorded with a legal instrument acceptable to the City. A waiver may be granted where it can be demonstrated that such reduction is justified due to: (i) factors having an impact on parking demand and capacity; (ii) the achievement of other competing City objectives including, but not limited to, preservation of unique or historic buildings, preservation of community character, tree or natural resource preservation; or Maxxon Page 7 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting (iii) unique or extenuating circumstances unforeseen by this ordinance.” Based on the applicant’s operation, staff believes existing parking will be sufficient, even without creating additional parking on the 3575 Hickory property. This could be argued as a factor having an impact on parking demand, especially for a reduction of 2 spaces (or 2.5%). The City’s code also allows a reduction in the number of parking spaces constructed if the applicant provides proof of parking which can be constructed in the future if deemed necessary by the City. Staff recommends a proof of parking agreement be required in lieu of constructing additional parking at this time. Lighting The applicant proposes new lighting fixtures around the entire structure. The CG district requires all exterior lighting to be fully downcast and shielded and limits light trespass to 0.5 footcandles at the property line, and to 0.0 footcandles at any residential property line. It appears the light on the southern façade will exceed the maximum 0.5 footcandle requirement. Staff recommends a condition for additional shielding or otherwise providing compliance with the lighting code. Landscaping and Tree Preservation The City’s tree preservation ordinance would allow the removal of 9 existing trees without replacement. The applicant proposes to remove 5 trees on connection with the construction. The Commercial zoning districts require the planting based upon the perimeter of the lot, in this case resulting in 25 overstory trees, 12 ornamental trees, and 41 shrubs. Existing trees can be used towards this count, so it appears that no trees would be required. The applicant proposes 13 additional trees and 45 shrubs within their landscaping plan, but it appears that all landscaping is proposed to the east of the building. Staff recommends that some planting be incorporated to the west of the structure. The Commercial zoning districts also require: “a minimum of eight percent of the total land area within parking, driveway, and loading dock areas shall be landscaped.” No landscaping exists within the parking lot and loading dock areas. The applicant proposes to expand the loading dock area to serve docks in the addition. Staff would recommend that an area at least as large be converted from loading dock to landscaping if new loading dock space is created. Utilities, Mechanical Equipment, and Trash and Recycling Facilities The Commercial districts require that all utility equipment, meters and transformers shall be placed either inside of the building or screened. Mechanical and HVAC equipment is required to be screened whether on the rooftop or on the ground. The code also requires: “All trash and material to be recycled shall be stored within the principal building, within an accessory structure, or within an enclosed outdoor area adjacent to the principal structure. The accessory structure or enclosed area Maxxon Page 8 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting shall be constructed of similar materials and have compatible architecture as the principal structure and shall abide by yard setback requirements.” The applicant has added a note that any new equipment will be screened. Staff recommends a condition requiring detail. The Commercial zoning district does not permit outside storage or materials, so staff recommends a condition related to this requirement. Staff Recommendation As noted above, staff believes the lot combination helps improve conformance so that existing improvements no longer cross a property line. It does not appear that any of the findings for denial of the combination apply in this case. The Planning Commission generally does not review lot combination requests, so there is no need for a recommendation. The purpose of a Site Plan Review is “to determine whether it is consistent with the requirements of this ordinance, including the applicable development standards and the purpose of the zoning district in which the property is located.” The Site Plan Review only applies to the new improvements which are proposed. Staff noted a number of circumstances in which the existing buildings do not comply with current regulations for background. The applicant is attempting to accommodate the expansion and improvement of the property and comply with current regulations within the context of these nonconformities. Staff has recommended conditions throughout the report which staff believes would bring the plans into compliance with relevant regulations. The most significant recommendations relate to:  The existing property exceeds hardcover limitations in the Shoreland Overlay District. The applicant proposes to replace existing bituminous parking with Grasspave pervious surfacing. The City Engineer believes it is appropriate to treat the Grasspave area as a pervious surface to offset new hardcover, but only if the specifications of the installation and the long-term maintenance are accounted for. The Planning Commission and Council will need to confirm whether this is consistent with the requirements of the Shoreland Overlay District.  Two additional loading docks are proposed and need to be determined if they comply with code requirements for location outside of front yard setbacks and screening. Staff has recommended that no additional loading docks be permitted.  On-site parking does not meet code requirements. The Planning Commission and Council will need to confirm that the off-site shared parking arrangement with proof-of-parking is sufficient. Staff does not believe the proposed arrangement will cause concerns. Staff recommends approval of the Site Plan Review, subject to the following conditions: 1) Approval of the Site Plan Review shall be contingent upon approval and effectuation of a lot combination of the Property. 2) The Owner shall enter into an agreement(s) with the City in a form and of substance acceptable to the City Attorney to ensure construction and long-term maintenance of pervious parking lot surfacing and other relevant City requirements and policies. Maxxon Page 9 of 9 January 18, 2018 Lot Combination and Site Plan Review Planning Commission Meeting 3) The Owner record a parking easement in a form and of substance acceptable to the City Attorney to ensure parking is reserved upon the neighboring property for the benefit of the subject Property. 4) The Owner shall enter into an agreement with the City in a form and of substance acceptable to the City Attorney to ensure construction of the proof-of-parking on the neighboring property if deemed necessary by the City in the future. 5) The Applicant shall install all improvements shown on the plans dated December 19, 2017, except as may be modified herein. The design of all improvements shall be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer prior to commencing construction. 6) All comments from the City Engineer shall be addressed. 7) The Owner shall meet the requirements of the wetland protection ordinance including easement, vegetation and signage. 8) The Owner shall update plans such that no additional loading docks are created which are unscreened from the public right-of-way and that utilize the front yard setback. Existing loading docks may be permitted to provide access to new warehouse space. 9) The Owner shall update lighting plans such that no lighting exceeds 0.5 footcandles at the property lines and shall otherwise meet the requirements of the lighting ordinance and CG zoning district. 10) Landscaping plans shall be updated to include some plantings west of the structure. 11) Eight percent of new loading dock area shall be landscaped, or any additional loading dock area shall be off-set by the removal of an equal area of loading dock area to comply with parking lot/loading dock landscaping requirements. 12) The exterior material utilized to re-clad the existing structures shall be consistent with the requirements of City Code. Fiber cement shall only be utilized in excess of 20% if the zoning code is amended to permit such use. 13) The use on the Property shall abide by the requirements of the Illicit Discharge Ordinance and no pollutants shall be washed from vehicles or equipment in a way to discharge to wetlands or waterbodies. 14) Any new mechanical or utility equipment and any new trash/recycling storage shall be screened as required by the CG zoning district. Verification that no such equipment or storage is proposed shall be provided prior to building permit, or the location and screening shall be provided. 15) The Owner shall pay to the City a fee in an amount sufficient to reimburse the City for the cost of reviewing the lot combination, site plan review, and the review and creation of related documents. Potential Action If the Planning Commission finds that, subject to the conditions noted above, the proposed Site Plan complies with relevant ordinance requirements, the following motion would be in order: Move to recommend approval of the Maxxon Site Plan Review, subject to the conditions noted in the staff report.

The applicant proposes to construct a new building connecting the two existing structures and modify the loading dock access and layout. The documents were reviewed for general conformance with the City of Medina’s general engineering standards and Stormwater Design Manual. We have the following comments with regards to engineering and stormwater management matters. Site Plan 1. The proposed 1” washed limestone rock is not an acceptable surface cover for a parking lot or truck loading dock area. The narrative provided by the applicant suggests that an alternative would be to replace impervious paving with permeable pavers in the existing parking lot at the back of the building. The City would be amenable to this option, please provide a design of the proposed permeable paver treatment area. Please update the narrative with the current proposed pervious paving technique. 2. The City is planning to reconstruct Hickory Drive in 2019. The work will include minor regrading of the road to better convey drainage, the addition of concrete curb and gutter, bituminous pavement, storm sewer installations, and a stormwater pond north of the Maxxon site. The City requests that the applicant work with the City during the planning stages to identify areas of permanent improvements to the Maxxon driveway and site drainage conveyance adjacent to Hickory Drive. Depending on the schedule of the Maxxon addition, temporary improvements may be necessary to accommodate drainage and access until the City’s project is constructed. 3. Add the existing watermain to the plans located along Hickory Drive and Hamel Road. Complete. 4. Typical pavement sections note that “depth of base course to be determined in the field by on-site engineer”. The pavement section for the permeable pavement should be designed to the most conservative onsite condition. Soil borings should be submitted showing the water table is at least 3-feet below the base course and that the underling soil has the specified Medina Maxxon Corporation Bldg/Site Expansion – Engineering Review January 4, 2018 Page 2 permeability. Medina is known for poor soils, provide a revised typical section with the information provided from the soil borings. 5. Add a legend for the various hatching patterns. 6. Add a heavy-duty pavement section to the plans for the loading dock/truck area in consideration of the onsite soil conditions. The preference is to have a final design determined prior to construction and not have to make hasty decisions during construction. Grading and Erosion Control Plan 7. Provide the location of a rock construction entrance. Identify how disturbed areas will be restored (erosion blanket, seeding, etc). Additional BMP’s may be necessary with the permeable paving installations, please show on plan. Add inlet protection to adjacent CB’s. Add linework and symbols to the legend for the erosion control items. Complete. 8. Where retaining walls are proposed, note top and bottom of wall elevations. Complete. 9. Provide grade percentages where new pavement and valley gutters are proposed. Plans show the valley gutter at 0.5% but also include for the new bituminous areas. 10. Provide energy dissipation method at end of valley gutter. 11. Show the roof downspout locations on the grading plan. 12. Add a legend for the various hatching patterns. 13. Preference is to add the roof drains/downspouts to the street side of the building for connection to future storm sewer in Hickory Drive. Stormwater Management 14. Based on the proximity of the Shoreland Overlay District covering much of the existing site, the City will not allow a net increase in impervious surface. The applicant has indicated the additional impervious surface could be off-set using permeable pavers. Show the location on plans with grading information, provide typical section, and provide other pertinent design information. Complete. 15. Provide calculations confirming the size/design of the pervious paving method based on the new/existing impervious surface areas where runoff is collected from. Calculations were provided (via email on December 28th), but no indication of the full drainage area was provided. Provide a map showing, and noting the size of, the drainage area directed to the Grasspave BMP. Soil borings should be submitted showing the water table is at least 3-feet below the base course and that the underling soil has the specified permeability. 16. The development may need to meet the appropriate watershed standards and submit for permits if applicable. 17. Submit a maintenance plan to the City consistent with the maintenance and operations listed in the Grasspave design brochure and other necessary local climate/weather considerations.

Jim Stremel, P.E. City Engineer December 18th, 2017 City of Medina Site Plan Review A proposed infill for Maxxon Corporation and Floor Technologies Inc. at 920 Hamel RD, Hamel, MN 55340. A site plan review is being requested for approval of a 2 story, 5,190 square foot infill addition between 2 existing buildings. The infill will provide 2,418 square feet of office space and 1,901 square feet of warehouse storage. The addition will fulfill a need for more vehicle and product storage, office space, better access between the two existing buildings and resolve the structural issues of the existing sky bridge. The infill will add 5,991 square feet of additional impervious material, will eliminate 1,412 square feet of existing impervious material resulting in a net addition of 4,579 square feet. In order to address this issue, the bituminous and concrete (5,306 square feet) on the warehouse side will be replaced with 1” washed limestone rock (depth to be confirmed by geotechnical engineer) to provide a permeable surface. If this is to be found unacceptable by the planning commission or governing body, the eastern row of parking spaces (4,671 square feet) will be replaced with permeable paving. The additional parking spaces required for the infill and to bring the existing building into compliance will be accommodated by an easement or other legal agreement on the owners property at 3575 Hickory Dr. The agreement will be determined between Maxxon’s attorney and the City Attorney. The exterior of the existing building will be re-clad to address existing water infiltration issues and to update the buildings aesthetics to match the new construction. The proposed materials include brick and Nichiha Vintage Wood fiber cement panels. The existing building’s water infiltration makes stucco an undesirable exterior finish to prevent encapsulating the water and creating a mold or “sick building” issue. The existing single CMU block construction does not provide enough structural strength to support a new full height cladding of pre-cast, block, brick, or natural stone. These materials have been incorporated in amounts the existing structure can support. The Nichiha panels will provide a light-weight, aesthetically pleasing, rain screen façade that will prevent further water infiltration while allowing the current walls to breathe and dry. The addition will accommodate approximately 16 additional employees and will not require additional restrooms nor will there be new equipment requiring significant additional water.

River News on the _____ day of _____________, 2018. City Of Medina Section 838.5 Design and Development Standards for All Commercial Districts Section 838.5.02. Building Materials and Design Subd. 1. Building Materials (d) Fiber Cement Architectural Wall Panels with a minimum 5/8” thickness are an approved material in the case of an existing masonry building with water infiltration issues making stucco an unsuitable finish material and cannot support the additional weight of precast panels, full height masonry, or other approved materials. Panels must be installed with a hidden fastening system that also serves as a built in drained and back-ventilated rainscreen. Explanation 5/8” vs thinner panels Panels under 5/8” are typically less durable, require more maintenance, withstand weather poorer, and are unable to span as far making the panels smaller resulting in a more residential look. Additionally, finish and product warranties on the 5/8” panels are typically 10-15 years as opposed to shorter warranties on the thinner products. Explanation Benefits over currently allowed material Stucco – Stucco over existing materials can cause water entrapment leading to mold issues and sick building syndrome. Architectural Concrete/CIP/Precast Panels/Decorative Block – The weight of these materials will require additional foundation and footings adjacent to the existing building. This would require excavation up to the existing foundation. With the potential high moisture content in the clay and the existing water issues, this increases the chances of structural failure and water infiltration. Glass – Due to the structural and spatial modifications, it is financially infeasible to retrofit an existing building with a significant amount of glass to offset the percentages required. Retrofitting the building with additional glass would also not address the water infiltration issue. Masonry (Brick/Stone) – The weight of these materials will require additional foundation and footings adjacent to the existing building. This would require excavation up to the existing foundation. With the potential high moisture content in the clay and the existing water issues of the building, this increases the chances of structural failure and water infiltration. Redwood or Cedar Boards – These actual wood materials require significantly more maintenance, wear a lot worse, and overall last for less time than a fiber cement panel. Please see the Nichiha Wood Comparison chart for an example. None of the approved materials allow for a built in drained and back-ventilated rainscreen which is crucial on an existing building with water infiltration issues. The rain screen will allow the building to breathe and dry out while simultaneously keeping the new moisture off the building. It is lightweight enough to not require any significant excavation near the existing building for installation. Finishes available allow the look of the approved materials - architectural block, wood, concrete, stone, brick while being a low risk, technical, and financial feasibility for existing buildings with water infiltration issues. From https://continuingeducation.bnpmedia.com/article_print.php?L=332&C=1210 “Fiber cement architectural wall panels have been demonstrated as a proven wall cladding system for commercial buildings. They have been developed from a history of other successful building products and include ingredients that are readily available and abundant. Commercial products are designed differently than residential products to meet the demands and rigors of commercial installations. They are available in a variety of system types that allow for variation and choices in appearance, performance and wall assembly details. As a rainscreen product they can meet a range of tests in conjunction with a properly designed substrate or supporting construction wall. They are a worthy choice for consideration on current and future building projects where aesthetics, quality, and cost-effectiveness are needed.” Attached - Nichiha Catalog, Nichiha Product Test Summary, Nichiha 3030 Vertical Install Guide, Nichiha 3030 Horizontal Install Guide, Nichiha Wood Comparison Chart, Nichiha Endi, Duluth case study, Nichiha Kum and Go, WY case study, Vanman completed Nichiha project photos ARCHITECTURAL WALL PANELS F ULL LINE CATALOG 23We’re looking forwardAt Nichiha we think the future is bright'XGT[FC[OQTGCPFOQTGRGQRNGCTGFKUEQXGTKPIVJGDGCWV[CPFRGTHQTOCPEGQH0KEJKJCoUƂDGTEGOGPVArchitectural Wall Panels.

It is important to keep in mind the actual metric dimensions when considering panel layout, placement of control and compression joints, and with respect to sizing window and door openings. Approximate Imperial dimensions are 17-7/8 inches (h) x 119- 5/16 inches (l) x 5/8 inch (t). AWP-3030 edges are ship-lapped on the top and bottom and a factory sealant gasket is included on the top edge, providing a factory seal on all horizontal joints. AWP attachment hardware engages the top and bottom panel edges, holding the panels off the substrate surface by 10 mm (~3/8”) and creating a closed- joint, drained/back-ventilated rainscreen system with concealed fastening. When accounting for the overall thickness of the AWP system, add this 10 mm plus the thickness of the panel (16 mm) for total system thickness of 26 mm. AWP-3030 may be installed horizontally or vertically.

Nichiha AWP are intended as a low- to-mid-rise cladding product and are not for use on high-rise buildings. Do not use AWP on open screen walls. Any project of more than three stories or 45 feet, as well as those located in high wind coastal areas (Exposure Categories C and D with Basic Wind Speed in excess of 130 mph), or those with any wall assembly not described in Framing & Sheathing Requirements, require a technical review by Nichiha to evaluate feasibility via our Technical Review and Special Application Form (SAF) process. By examining a project’s unique criteria and design, we can reference independently test-derived and calculated wind load performance data for our products to determine whether and how the panels can safely be installed on the project. Contact your local rep or Nichiha technical department for details or to initiate an SAF. AWP are not to be used in any applications not specified or described in this installation guide or other Nichiha technical documents. Do not install AWP on open screen walls or Insulated Concrete Forms (ICFs). Installation of AWP products on modular structures that are factory-constructed and then transported to a final site are not approved; and further, excluded from the Limited Product Warranty, per Section 2.F. Any such use shall not be backed by product warranty. Please contact Nichiha Technical Services for assistance. SAFETY As with any natural stone, masonry, or concrete based product, when cutting, drilling, sawing, sanding, or abrading fiber cement cladding, proper safety measures must be taken due to the potential for airborne silica dust, an OSHA-identified hazardous substance that can pose serious medical risks. Always wear safety glasses and a NIOSH/ OSHA approved respirator with a rating of N, O, or P 100. Carefully follow the respirator manufacturer’s instructions as well as applicable governmental safety regulations concerning silica. Refer to Nichiha’s SDS for more information. Always cut fiber cement panels outside and with a dust-collecting HEPA system. Do not cut the products in an enclosed area. Use a dust-reducing circular saw with diamond-tipped or carbide-tipped fiber cement saw blades. Always clean panels after cutting. Fiber cement dust can potentially bind to the panel finish. 5 FRAMING & SHEATHING REQUIREMENTS Nichiha AWP cladding may be installed on vertical walls only. No tilted/sloped walls, soffits, or ceilings. Wood or steel framing, concrete/masonry with furring, Structural Insulating Panels (SIP), and pre-engineered metal buildings (PEMB) must meet the following requirements: Prior to Nichiha installation, closely inspect exterior wall substrate and correct any problems. Walls that are out of plumb, for example, can negatively impact the installation quality of AWP. Nichiha Spacer may be used in conjunction with panel attachment hardware if necessary to ensure an even substrate. Refer to PEI-PER 14088 for wind load data. Wood Studs Size: minimum 2x4 studs Spacing: 16” o.c max Sheathing: exterior grade minimum 7/16” plywood/OSB (APA rated),½” or 5/8 gypsum Metal Studs Gauge: minimum 18 Spacing: 16” o.c max Sheathing: exterior grade minimum 7/16” plywood/OSB (APA rated),½” or 5/8”gypsum Concrete/Masonry Furring is required for installation of AWP over concrete and masonry structures. Wood Furring: pressure treated lumber 2x4 or 5/4x4’s, oriented vertically, spaced 16” o.c. max Metal Furring: hat channel, c-stud, or z-furring, “ˆ˜ˆ“Õ“£n}>Õ}i܈̅£‡Ó»y>˜}iÃ]œÀˆi˜Ìi` vertically, spaced 16” o.c. max. Structural Insulating Panels (SIP) SIPs should be installed in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions and local building codes. Additional special Nichiha installation requirements for SIPs are discussed in the Fasteners and Installing the First Course sections to follow. For buildings greater than one story, contact Technical Department for assistance. Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings (PEMB) Metal buildings must be new construction. No retrofits/remodels. Metal siding/skin deflection of L/120. 50 ksi metal panels must have ribs spaced no more than 12” O.C. with metal guage determined by allowable wind design pressures: Projects with allowable design pressures in excess of the table values may not utilize AWP directly over PEMB metal panels. Additional special Nichiha installation requirements for PEMBs are discussed in the Fasteners and Installing the First Course sections to follow. Metal Panel Gauge Allowable Pressure 24 gauge 22 gauge -31.41 psf -39.29 psf Photo Credit: Nucor Building Systems NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 6 CONTINUOUS INSULATION Where exterior/continuous insulation is used, AWP may be installed directly over up to 1” of foam plastic insulation on wood or gypsum sheathing. Greater amounts require a structural solution to provide attachment points for AWP such as a furring grid or third-party specialized system. Mineral wool c.i. of any thickness requires a furring. Refer to the Technical Bulletin: Continuous Insulation and AWP available at Nichiha.com/resources/technical-bulletins. Please contact Nichiha technical department for further assistance. WEATHER RESISTIVE BARRIERS A weather resistive barrier (WRB) is required when installing Nichiha panels over stud walls and SIPs. For CMU/concrete wall applications, we defer to local code. Use an approved WRB as defined by the 2015 IBC. A breathable WRB is highly recommended when installing Nichiha panels for residential applications. A breathable WRB is required for all commercial applications. A fluid applied WRB is acceptable. All openings must have appropriate flashing to prevent moisture penetration. Follow manufacturer’s guidelines and all local building codes. STORAGE AND HANDLING AWP are a finished product and care must be taken to protect them against damage prior to and during installation. Panels must be stored flat and kept dry. Refer to storage information included on product pallets. Ensure panels are completely dry before installing. Direct contact between the panels and the ground must be avoided at all times. It is necessary to keep panels clean during the installation process. The custom color finish of Illumination Series panels requires 30 days to fully cure and extra care must be taken to avoid damage to the paint during the installation process. Cut panels face down. ALWAYS CLEAN PANELS WITH A CLEAN, SOFT, DRY CLOTH AFTER CUTTING. DUST CAN BIND TO THE FINISH. WHEN SIDEWALKS ARE POURED AFTER AWP INSTALLATION, TAKE STEPS TO COVER/PROTECT PANELS NEAR GRADE. CEMENT DRIED ON AWP CANNOT BE REMOVED. Fig. 2 7 FASTENERS ALL APPLICATIONS Fasteners must be corrosion resistant. Stainless steel or corrosion resistant screws such as hot-dipped zinc or ceramic coated are recommended. Comply with all local building codes for fastener requirements. Number 10 - 16, pan-head screws (HD .365”) were used as clip fasteners for AWP wind load testing. The minimum size for clip fasteners is #8. ՓLiÀÇw˜ˆÃ…ÃVÀiÜÃ܈̅>LÕ}iœÀy>Ì…i>` (min. head diameter 0.255”) are appropriate for face fastening locations. These must penetrate framing per the minimum requirements below. Refer to the Last Course section on page 28 for face fastening best practices. WOOD STUDS Fasteners must penetrate solid structure a minimum of 1”. METAL STUDS Screws must penetrate solid structure a minimum of 1/2”. Three threads are needed for effective grab. CONCRETE/ MASONRY Furring to Masonry: Fastener type, size, and spacing to be determined under direction of an engineer and in accordance with local building codes. AWP to Furring: Screws must penetrate wood furring a minimum of 1” or steel by at least ½”. STRUCTURAL INSULATING PANELS (SIP) One inch, full-thread, corrosion resistant wood screws must be used. Fasten starter track every 16” max. Double fastening per each Nichiha clip (minimum of 4 screws per JEL777/787 clip) is required as there are fewer or no studs to secure the system. PRE-ENGINEERED METAL BUILDINGS (PEMB) PEMB wind load/panel gauge table (see Framing & Sheathing Requirements) contingent upon use of #10-16 x 1” pan head, S/D screws. Fasteners must be spaced at no more than 12” o.c. into metal panel ribs. NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 8 ULTIMATE HORIZONTAL STARTER TRACK Starter Track serves as the foundational support for the AWP system while also providing faster and greater ease of installation. Horizontal Panels (10’): Starter Track FA 700 ULTIMATE CLIP Ultimate Clips sit on the panel shiplaps, securing AWP to the wall and distributing dead loads to the structure. Together, Ultimate Clips and Starter Track hold the back surface of the panels off the substrate to create a 10mm (3/8”) rainscreen space. JEL 777 Clip Compatible with 16mm (5/8”) AWP Joint Tab Attachments included with the Ultimate Clip are not needed with AWP-3030 installations. FINISH CLIP (OPTIONAL) The Finish Clip provides an alternative to face fastening of AWP at certain termination points where the panel shiplaps are removed. Install over 5mm Spacer. Refer to Finish Clip Usage section for general instructions. JE 310 Finish Clip – Compatible with all AWP CORRUGATED SPACER At termination points where Panel Clips cannot be used, Nichiha Corrugat- ed Spacer is required to maintain the rainscreen space and prevent panel deflection at face fastening locations such as window sills and headers. FS 1005 Spacer – 5mm FS 1010 Spacer – 10mm INSTALLATION HARDWARE & ACCESSORIES 9 SEALANT BACKERS Nichiha Sealant Backers provide exact spacing for expansion and termination joints and the recommended depth of sealant (75-80%). They provide faster installation than a foam backer rod and require less sealant. At sealant joints, use a sealant that complies with ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.). Refer to the Sealant section on page 15 for more information. Single Flange Sealant Backer: FHK 1015 – 10 mm Double Flange Sealant Backer: FH 1015 – 10 mm NICHIHA CORNERS Nichiha Corners are manufactured mitered panel corners available in the same finishes as all horizontally oriented AWP. Corners have 3-1/2” returns (face dimension). METAL TRIM Nichiha metal trim provides aesthetically pleasing design options for corners, openings, and transitions, as well as vertical joints.

NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 10 PLANNING & PANEL LAYOUT To ensure a successful installation, it is important to first plan how the panels will be laid out, where compression and control joints will be located, and line of sight regarding inside corners decided. Reminder: AWP-3030 actual dimensions are metric: 455 mm (h) x 3,030 mm (l). Imperial equivalents: 17-7/8” (h) x 119-5/16” (l). Layout: AWP-3030 may only be installed in a stacked bond application. Do not stagger. Vertical Control/Expansion Joints (Pages 16 and 25): 10mm (3/8”) sealant joints that account for thermal expansion in the lateral dimension. These are often, where possible, aligned with window or door jambs, downspouts, or other features in order to minimize their appearance but recur every 119-5/16” (max) with AWP-3030. Depending on sheathing type, additional framing, furring, or blocking may be required at vertical joint locations. Horizontal/Compression Joints (Page 26): ½” (min.) horizontal, flashed break detail to allow for building compression at floor lines. Inside Corner Line of Sight (Page 18): Sealant joints at inside corners can be placed out of view from the primary line of sight of a wall. Place the sealant joint on the less-viewed corner wall. Cut Panels: In general, it is best to avoid cutting AWP to short or narrow strips and segments of less than 9”. Specifically, when an individual panel is wider than a window or other opening and is used over the head or under the sill, do not cut it to less than 9” in height. (see image A) When an opening is wider than an individual panel and two or more are needed to cap over the header or cup the sill, do not cut the panel to less than 4” in height. (image B) 9" 4" A B 11 Fig. 15 Essential Starter Flashing AWP-3030: INSTALLING THE FA 700 STARTER TRACK ALL APPLICATIONS The Ultimate Horizontal Starter Track (FA 700) must be level and attached at a minimum of 6” above finished soil grade or per local building codes (use a laser level to verify). When installing over a hard surface such as driveways or sidewalks, a 2” clearance is acceptable. Essential Starter Flashing may be installed prior to the Starter Track to conceal the clearance gap above hardscape and decking. Beginning with outside and inside corner segments, fasten Flashing at each stud location or every 10” o.c. to sill plate. Fasten Flashing inside and outside corner segments to framing on both sides, keeping at least 1” from vertical edges. Main segments will slide into/overlap the corner segments. AWP’s bottom face edge will extend ¾” below the Starter Track. Position Flashing and/or Starter Track to leave 1/4” clearance between the panel edge and Flashing. The Starter Track must be installed using corrosion resistant fasteners. Locate and mark the studs. WOOD & METAL STUDS OR FURRING Starter Track must be secured at every stud line. CONCRETE/MASONRY When installing over concrete construction, the wall must be furred out with pressure treated lumber or metal hat channel. Starter Track must be secured at each furring location. STRUCTURAL INSULATING PANELS (SIP) Secure Starter Track every 16” o.c. max. PRE-ENGINEERED METAL BUILDINGS (PEMB) Fasten Starter Track at every metal panel rib at 12” o.c. max. NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 12 GENERAL PANEL & ACCESSORY BASICS All trim, Single and Double Flange Sealant Backer should be installed before panels. Refer to Inside Corners, Doors, & Windows and Vertical Expansion Joints sections respectively. PANEL SELECTION Nichiha AWP-3030 are packaged with two panels in a pack, which are placed on pallets consisting of two stacks. Due to alternating patterns of texture and color between individual panels as well as how the panels are manufactured and packaged, it is best to install all panels from each individual stack before taking and installing panels from the second stack on the same pallet. Do not alternate installing from one stack and the second, which may result in undesirable patterns. SEALING CUT PANEL EDGES When cutting AWP, it is best to cut with the panel face down, except when cutting brick finish panels as it is easier to follow the simulated mortar lines on their face. Cut and exposed panel edges must be primed or sealed with fiber cement sealer (e.g. DryLock®) or latex paint such as Kilz Premium® or Kilz Max®. Do not use Illumination touch up paint for edge treatment due to the limited amount provided. Be sure to clean panels with a clean, dry soft cloth after cutting to prevent dust from bonding to the finish. Fig. 16 13 CUTTING PANEL CLIPS JEL777 Panel Clips are 26” long. Where full length clips can be used, they are required. However, there may be conditions where clips must be cut to accommodate panels or corner pieces in smaller areas or segments such as narrow columns, pilasters, or insets, recessed openings, or small areas between windows. Notches on the upward panel engagement flanges indicate where clips can be cut evenly into thirds. These 1/3 segments can be further reduced evenly into two or four pieces each with weep holes serving as dividing points. The smallest segment must include at least one downward panel engagement flange. Always use the widest clip segment possible.Cut with a non-ferrous saw blade on a band or chop saw. Fig. 17 Fig. 18 NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 14 FINISH CLIP USAGE The Finish Clip requires added preparation of the panels with the use of a biscuit joiner: 1. To route grooves into the top edge of a panel, use a biscuit/plate joiner, such as Makita’s PJ7000. A carbide blade is recommended. 2. Set the biscuit joiner’s angle guide at zero degrees and height to ¼”. 3. Set the depth of groove for a size 20 biscuit to ensure the grooves are wide and deep enough for JE310 clips to seat properly, ¼” from the back/unfinished face of the panel. 4. Route the cut edge with the unfinished panel surface facing up, lining the grooves up with stud locations (16” o.c. maximum). 5. The clip should fit snug but not too tightly when placed on the panel. Cut, routed panel edges must be sealed with 100% acrylic latex primer or paint. Use 5mm Spacer with JE310 Finish Clips. Panel Back Panel Front 1 4" [6 mm] 1 2" [12 mm] Fig. 19 Fig. 20 Fig. 21 Fig. 22 15 SEALANT Sealants to be used with AWP must match the following requirements: • Comply with ASTM C920 • Have a Class of 35, 50, or 100/50 (minimum 35% joint movement) • Be a polyurethane, polyurethane hybrid, or Adfast Adseal 4580 • Provide two-sided adhesion at joints OSI® QUAD® MAY NOT BE USED FOR NICHIHA EXPANSION JOINTS - It is a class 25 product. - QUAD® MAX is acceptable since it is a Class 50. Refer to the Technical Bulletin: Sealants available at Nichiha.com/resources/ technical-bulletins. SEALANT JOINTS/CAULKING Fasten Single Flange Sealant Backers at inside corners (one wall at corner), along window and door jambs, and transition points with other cladding. Fasten to framing, blocking or plywood/OSB sheathing at 12-14” o.c. with the 3/8” bump/sealant portion butting the corner or jamb. Sealant complying with ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.) is required where Single and/or Double Flange Sealant Backer is used. Refer to the sealant manufacturer’s instructions or requirements. If excess sealant adheres to panel, remove completely using a putty knife or soft cloth. Place low-adhesive tape (masking or painter’s) over the panel along the areas requiring sealant joints for a clean caulk line. Fill the gap between the panels with a color-matched/coordinating sealant which complies with ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.) standard. The Nichiha Sealant Backer allows for the proper depth of sealant (75-80%). Before removing tape, press the surface of the sealant with a caulk spatula or similar tool to ensure an even surface. Remove masking tape before sealant cures. Fig. 23 NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 16 AWP - 3030 - HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION AWP installation proceeds by working from left to right. Wood, Metal, Concrete/Masonry with Furring For AWP-3030, the left and right panel edges are flat and do not require initial cutting. The panel will fit tightly against an already installed inside corner spacer, Sealant Backer, or outside corner trim. If starting at an inside corner, predetermine which wall will include the Single Flange Sealant Backer for an inside corner detail. Consider the location to minimize the visibility of the sealant joint line. Clad the higher visibility wall without the sealant joint first so that the adjoining wall panels can terminate to it with the Single Flange Sealant Backer detail. Set first panel into the Starter Track and secure the top edge with an Ultimate Clip, placing the first clip about one inch from the left edge of the panel. Fasten clip at each stud location the clip reaches. Every clip will cover 2-3 studs and must be fastened to each. (Figure 24) Proceed along the panel to the right, placing another clip 3-4 inches from the end of the previously installed clip. DO NOT skip any studs. Fasten clip at each stud location. Each AWP-3030 long edge must be covered by four clips. (Figure 25) Since AWP-3030 do not have shiplaps on their short edges, a control joint or H-Mold trim detail is needed at each vertical joint. The vertical joint is continuous and not split up or staggered. Fasten the Double Flange Sealant Backer at vertical joints between panels. Fasten Sealant Backer on right side flange every 12- 14” to framing, blocking, or plywood/OSB sheathing. (Also see page 25.) Install next wall panel right up to the Double Flange Sealant Backer and secure with clips at each stud location. (Figure 26) Alternatively, H-Mold metal trim can be used at vertical joints for horizontal AWP-3030. This trim, as well as Nichiha Sealant Backer must be fastened to plywood/OSB sheathing, framing, furring, or blocking. Fasten metal trim every 12-16” in a staggered fashion on >ÌiÀ˜>̈˜}y>˜}ið For H-Mold, leave a 1/8” gap between the i`}iœv̅i«>˜i>˜`̅iVi˜ÌiÀy>˜}iœv the trim. (Figure 27) Verify the first course of panels is level. Large commercial buildings require checking level around the entire building. (Figure 28) Complete the second and remaining non- terminal rows in the same way. Fit panels tightly together on horizontal joints, ensuring the panel edges are properly butted together. A rubber mallet or block of wood may be used to seat the panels firmly in place and tighten downward. The Joint Tab Attachments are not used with AWP-3030. Terminal rows such as under Horizontal/Compression Joints or at the Last Course are discussed in subsequent sections of this guide. 17 STRUCTURAL INSULATING PANELS (SIP) In general, the steps mirror those for stud wall applications. However, double fastening per each Panel Clip (minimum of four screws, evenly spaced per clip) is required as there are fewer or no studs to secure the system. There must be four clips per AWP-3030 edge. PRE-ENGINEERED METAL BUILDINGS (PEMB) Refer again to general requirements concerning PEMB installations in the Framing and Sheathing Requirements section. With metal panel ribs spaced no more than 12” o.c., install AWP in the same manner as with stud wall applications but with Panel Clips fastened to each rib they reach. Screws (#10 x 1”) applied at no more than 12” o.c. There must be four clips per AWP-3030 long edge. Fig. 24 Fig. 25 Fig. 26 Fig. 28Fig. 27 NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 18 3/8" SEALANT JOINT OVER SINGLE FLANGE SEALANT BACKER NICHIHA PANEL NICHIHA CLIP INSIDE CORNERS, WINDOWS, & DOORS ALL APPLICATIONS Appropriate flashing and moisture management best practices must be used to prevent moisture penetration at all inside corners, doors, and windows. Refer to window/door manufacturer requirements and local building codes. Cut and exposed panel edges must be primed or sealed with acrylic latex fiber cement sealer or paint. INSIDE CORNERS SINGLE FLANGE SEALANT BACKER Decide primary line of sight in order to minimize visibility of the sealant joint. Install the panel on the front wall (more visible) first. Ensure panel is butted up tight to the inside corner wall. Fasten the Single Flange Sealant Backer onto the side wall right up against the front wall panel’s edge at 12-14” o.c. Install side wall panel directly against the sealant backer and secure with Ultimate Clip. Fill space with sealant (Figures 29, 29A,B). TRIM BOARDS Install trim boards at inside corner first. Then add Single Flange Sealant Backer and butt panel edges to it. Add ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.) compliant sealant to the gap. Fig. 29A Fig. 29 Fig. 29B 19 WINDOW SILLS JE310 FINISH CLIP For recessed windows, add a flashing where the panels will terminate so the top edge is covered or capped at the sill. Remove the top ship-lapped edge of the panel at the window sill, cutting the panel to the required height, and route grooves into panel top at appropriate width to coincide with framing members. (Refer to Finish Clip Usage for biscuit joiner info.) Clean any dust off the panel. For windows narrower than a panel, only remove the portion of the panel edge directly under the window but accounting for a minimum ¼” gap at both jambs. Cut, routed panel edges must be sealed with 100% acrylic latex primer or paint, such as Kilz Premium or Kilz Max. Panel edge should be spaced a minimum 3/8” below a flush or overhanging window sill to accommodate the Finish Clip. Fasten FS1005 Corrugated Spacer (5mm) at stud locations before setting panel into place. Seat Finish Clips into grooves and fasten at each stud location, through Spacer, to secure panel into place. (Figure 30) If the top edge of the panel is fully sheltered under the sill, it is not necessary to seal the 3/8” gap. For better system performance, Nichiha recommends the vented approach. Fig. 30 FINISH CLIP OVER 5MM SPACER NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 20 FACE FASTENING (J-MOLD OPTIONAL) For recessed windows, add a flashing where the panels will terminate so that the top edge is covered or capped at the sill. As needed to match the window width, remove panel top ship-lapped edge, cutting the panel to the required height to fit below the window sill, leaving a ¼” gap between the top of the cut panel edge and the window sill or trim board. Cut, routed panel edges must be sealed with 100% acrylic latex primer or paint. Clean any dust off the panel with a clean, soft, dry cloth. Add FS1010 Corrugated Spacer (10mm) at stud locations, set the panel on the clips of the panel(s) below, and then face fasten top, cut edge of panel at the sill. Keep screws 1” below panel edge. This will avoid cracking or breaking the panel. Best practice is to pre-drill the panel before fastening through low-adhesive tape applied to panel face to be removed after patching and touch up. If the top edge of the panel is fully sheltered under the sill, it is not necessary to seal the 1/4” gap. Nichiha prefers a vented approach. J-Mold or other trim channels can be included at a sill but must be placed on the panel edge prior to face fastening panel so that the trim is fastened simultaneously. WINDOW/DOOR JAMBS A minimum gap of 1/4” is required when butting panels into windows, doors, and trim boards. Refer to window manufacturer guidelines for spacing trims around windows. SINGLE FLANGE SEALANT BACKER: Install the Single Flange Sealant Backer first, butting to the door/window jamb or trim pieces prior to installing the panels. The Single Flange Sealant Backer must be fastened a minimum of 12” to 14” o.c. to studs, blocking, or structural sheathing. Cut panel to appropriate width. Remember to clean freshly cut panels with a clean, soft, dry cloth. Install panels and fill gap with ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.) compliant sealant. J-MOLD: Pre-install J-Mold trim with a ¼” gap between it and the window/door jamb, or per window manufacturer instructions. Panels must fit completely within trim, with no exposed panel edges, but leaving a 1/8” space between panel edge and J-Mold. Lastly, add foam backer rod and sealant to the ¼” gap between the J-Mold and jamb. Fig. 32 Fig. 31 Single Flange Sealant Backer 21 NICHIHA CORNERS AT RECESSED JAMBS: Nichiha Corners can be used to wrap recessed window jambs. Corners have returns of 3-1/2” (face dimension). Cut the pieces as needed for shallower returns but of sufficient depth for use of a clip segment. Wrap the base of the jamb with cut pieces of Starter Track (or FS1010 Spacer if face fastening). Install Corner pieces at jamb prior to main panels using cut Panel Clips (refer to Cutting Panel Clips section). Cut clips must retain at least one downward panel engagement flange. Install Single Flange Sealant Backer with the sealant bump against the Corner piece, fastening at 12” - 14” o.c. along the fastening flange. Where Corner pieces meets the termination point at the window, leave minimum ¼” gap and add ½” closed-cell backer rod and sealant. (Figure 33) WINDOW/DOOR HEADERS Starter Track: When starting a course of whole panels above a window or door, add flashing and Starter Track at the header, installed with fasteners at each framing member. (Figure 34) Face Fastening: When adding a cut panel above the opening, install flashing and Spacer first and then face fasten panels at each framing member. Add tape to seal flashing to WRB. Keep fasteners a min. 1” from edge.

NICHIHA CORNERS: Install Nichiha Corners prior to panels. Corners may only be used in vertical applications. Set Corner on the Starter Track and secure with two 1-1/2” cut Ultimate Clips that each retain a downward panel engagement flange. Refer to Cutting Panel Clips section. Place one clip on each side of the Corner and secure with fasteners into framing/ structure. Place the next Corner on top of the first, fitting the ship-lapped edges together over the clips. Secure the top edge in the same manner with two Ultimate Clip 1-1/2” segments. (Figure A) Continue up the outside corner, stacking and securing the Corner pieces. The top Corner will be cut to the appropriate height and face fastened over 10mm Spacer. Add Double Flange Sealant Backer behind the Corners on both sides, all the way down from the top of the wall section to the Starter Track. Secure Sealant Backer to structure every 12-14” on the exposed fastening flanges. (Figure B) After all the panels have been installed, apply ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.) compliant sealant to the Sealant Backers. 23 A B 1-1/2” Cut Ultimate Clip Double Flange Sealant Backer NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 24 FIBER CEMENT & PVC TRIM BOARDS Nichiha manufactures a full line of fiber cement trim boards - NichiTrim™, which are available in the Southeast U.S. Refer to Nichiha.com for more information. When panels are to be butted to fiber cement, wood or other trim pieces, use Nichiha Single Flange Sealant Backer between them. Apply sealant to joint width. Sealant must be compliant with ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.). METAL & VINYL TRIM Install trim channel, such as Nichiha Corner Key or Open Outside Corner, in accordance with manufacturer’s installation instructions. Install prior to panels and fasten with corrosion resistant fasteners through trim flanges every 12-16” into studs or corner blocking. Stagger fasteners on alternating sides. Fit panels into channel trim so that panel edges are not exposed. Leave 1/8” space between panel edge and center flange of the trim. (Figure 40) Nichiha metal trim pieces are each 10 feet in length. To cut metal trim, use a non-ferrous carbide miter saw blade. When butting/ stacking metal trim pieces, add a bead of polyurethane sealant at the seam/joint. Metal trim can be pre-finished when purchased to match Illumination Series color(s). Otherwise, for field painting metal trim, use Direct to Metal (DTM) paint. See Tamlyn’s XtremeTrim Painting Guide. Fig. 40 Corner Key 25 NON-90-DEGREE CORNERS Corners other than 90 degrees can be achieved with custom metal trim, butting panels to trim board with a minimum ¼” sealant gap, or with the use of Double Flange Sealant Backer (refer to Vertical Control/ Expansion Joint section) to set cut panel edges at the desired corner angle. Miter cut panel edges as needed to create a uniform sealant joint. The Double Flange Sealant Backer detail can be utilized to accommodate use of AWP on segmented, radius-like walls. Do not attempt to curve AWP. Contact the Nichiha Technical Department for assistance. VERTICAL CONTROL/EXPANSION JOINTS ALL APPLICATIONS Vertical Control/Expansion Joints or H-Mold (see pages 16-17) are required between each AWP-3030 installed horizontally. The 455mm ­£Ç‡ÇÉn»®i`}iÃœv̅i«>˜iÃ>Àiy>̭܈̅œÕÌ shiplaps) and may not be butted together. These vertical joints may not be split up and staggered. Install vertical control joint (Nichiha Double Flange Sealant Backer) to butt up against panels at a pre-determined joint location and secure to substrate on one side (the right side flange) at 12” - 14” o.c. Double Flange Sealant Backer must be fastened to plywood/OSB sheathing, framing/furring member (added if necessary to pre-planned joint locations), or blocking. Panel edges should have a tight fit against the Sealant Backer. Install the next panel to the joint and secure with Panel Clips. Apply low-adhesive tape along the length of the panel edges to protect from sealant and for a smoother look when the sealant is applied and tape removed. Apply ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.) compliant sealant into the expansion joint, starting at the bottom and pushing sealant into the gap. Add framing/blocking to fasten Sealant Backer and panel edges Fig. 41 NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 26 HORIZONTAL/COMPRESSION JOINTS ALL APPLICATIONS Project desigers must account for building compression when planning the cladding layout and incorporate horizontal/ compression joints as appropriate. Nichiha is not liable for panel damage due to building compression. In general, Nichiha recommends such joints at each floor level. With metal framing projects of more than three stories or 45 feet, add a joint approximately every 25 feet. For wood framing projects of three stories or “œÀi]>œˆ˜ÌˆÃÀiµÕˆÀi`>Ìi>V…yœœÀ° Avoid spanning floor lines with panels at joints. Please contact Nichiha Technical Department for assistance. Installing a Horizontal Compression Joint Install Essential Compression Joint Flashing or heavy gauge z-shaped metal flashing or drip cap over the top edge of the course of panels terminating under the horizontal compression joint location. Fasten Essential Flashing at each stud location. A best practice is to add flashing tape to cover the top edge of the flashing and its fasteners. Top ship-lapped edge of the bottom panel is cut and secured by face fastening (1” below panel cut edge) or use of the Finish Clip (JE310) with the appropriate Spacer behind. Install Starter Track above trim/z-flashing such that the next course of panels sit at least 1/2 inch above the course below it. Remember the bottom ship-lapped edge extends 3/4” below Starter, so the Starter will need to be installed at least 1-1/4” above the edge of the panel course below the joint. Check for level. (Figure 42) Continue to install panels according to these guidelines with compression joints at the appropriate elevation(s). Fig. 42 Essential Compression Joint Flashing 27 GARAGE DOORS & OTHER LARGE OPENINGS ALL APPLICATIONS Install Starter Track 1” above garage door casing. Establish a level line from the bottom of the Starter Track out to the side on both ends with a laser level. Use this line to measure down the wall (each side of garage) to attach the Starter Track so that the panels will meet at the proper height. Use Spacer (FS 1010) behind the panel at the bottom course, which will be scribed to the contour of the surface. Panels at the bottom course of the garage door opening must be face fastened to the studs. When face fastening, always fasten at least 1” from all panel edges to avoid panel cracking or breakage. PENETRATIONS, RAILINGS, & SIGNAGE Openings for small penetrations for pipes or conduits may be cut through a panel with the hole sealed with ASTM C920, Class 35 (min.) compliant sealant. For larger penetrations greater than 1.5”, it is best to block or frame out the opening. Along the jambs of the opening install Single Flange Sealant Backer. Cut panel edge as needed to butt to Sealant Backer and add recommended sealant. Underneath the opening block out, install FS1010 Spacer as needed for face fastening panel edge at framing locations. Terminate panel with ¼” gap. Sealant here is optional, depending on the depth of the blocking. Above the penetration, add flashing and install FS1010 Spacer as needed for face fastening panel edge at framing locations. Ensure minimum ¼” gap between bottom of panel edge and penetration blocking. Keep any face fasteners 1” away from panel edges. If installing railings or signage over AWP, ensure fasteners are secured through to framing or other structural support. Do not fasten any attachment only to panels. Level line - measure down from here to place lower Starter Track Starter Track 1" above garage door casing Starter Track Corrugated Spacer Fig. 43 Fig. 44 NICHIHA INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR AWP-3030 - HORIZONTAL 28 LAST COURSE ALL APPLICATIONS Fasten Spacer (FS 1010) to studs at the top of the last panel course.

Fill counter-sunk fastener holes with exterior Vi“i˜ÌˆÌˆœÕÃwiÀ]ÃÕV…>Ã,i>`Þ*>ÌV…Á and later dab touch-up paint with cotton swabs. Remove painter’s tape. Alternatively, utilize the Finish Clip instead of face fastening. Cut panels horizontally to properly align with the roof line or transition point height. Use biscuit joiner to route notches into this cut edge, spaced to coincide with stud locations. Add 5mm corrugated Spacer (FS 1005) at Finish Clip fastening/stud locations prior to fastening clips. Set panels into place and seat/ fasten a clip at each stud location. Cover top panel row edge with roof cap/ coping, where applicable. GABLE & OVERHANG Allow a minimum of 1” clearance (as per local building codes) above a roof line. At top, cut the panel to follow the slope of the gable or overhang. When installing soffit, the wall panels should be installed first, with the soffit installed over the panels. Panels installed along gable or overhang edges must be face fastened. When adding face screws, apply fasteners at least 1” from any panel edge. This will avoid cracking or breaking of the panel. (Figure 46) All face-fastened panels must be shimmed out with FS 1010 Spacer. Seal all cut panel edges with 100% acrylic primer or paint. Do not leave any panel edges exposed. Clean cut panels with a clean, soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Essential Overhang Flashing may be used at the base of overhangs/bump-outs or porte- cocheres. Prior to panel installation, fasten Overhang Flashing at each stud location, beginning with corner segments. Main segments will slide under/overlap corner segments.

After first piece is secured, add Joint Clip, fastening through both it and the first main segment. The next main segment will slide behind the Joint Clip. Position Overhang Flashing so that its bottom/ return flange butts to or overlaps soffit. The bottom return portion must extend beyond the face of the facia substrate (Figure 47). SLOPED GRADE/ PANELS BELOW STARTER TRACK Where grade is sloped, begin with Starter Track at lowest possible continual level line and install as directed in this guide. To clad below Starter Track and to scribe to angled grade, take the following steps: Add FS1010 Spacer below Starter Track. Below the Starter, if installing more than one course of panels, install the full-sized course up under the Starter and fasten upside-down Panel Clips underneath, with every framing/ furring member covered by a clip. Face fasten top edge through corrugated Spacer. Keep fasteners 1” from panel edge. Add the next course and fasten upside-down clips unless that panel or row is the final/ terminal, cut/scribed panel or row. Face- fasten the bottom/cut course with backing corrugated Spacer. Maintain minimum clearances above grade: 2” above hardscape, 6” above soil. (Figure 48) Paint, prime, or otherwise seal all cut, exposed panel edges. Clean panels after cutting with clean, dry, soft cloth to remove dust. If installing over a masonry/cmu foundation, furring is required. This should be taken into consideration when planning the depth of the exterior wall and cladding above so that the entire wall will have a uniform depth.

When cleaning panels, use no more than 400 psi of water pressure at 10” to 12” away. Do not pressure wash Illumination panels. To clean heavily soiled areas, a mild household detergent and/or soft bristle brush may be required. Do not allow any detergent/cleaner to dry on panels. Rinse immediately after cleaning. PAINT TOUCH-UP Touch up paint must be exterior grade 100% acrylic latex and can be color matched by taking a panel sample to your local paint or home improvement store. One gallon of Illumination Series touch-up paint is supplied with your custom color panel order. Do not use for edge coating/sealing for larger projects. Isolate touch-up locations with low-adhesive/ painter’s tape. Where face fasteners have been used and patched by cementitious filler, use a cotton swab to lightly dab touch-up paint. For scratches, use a cotton swab for small ones or 1” foam brush for longer ones, again using a dabbing motion rather than brushing in order to minimize the amount of paint applied. REMOVAL OF EXTERIOR ACRYLIC LATEX PAINT Wet Paint Removal - While the paint is still wet, flush the area with clean water, using mild abrasion with a clean cloth or soft brush. Semi-Dry Paint Removal - If paint has set, but not dried, flush and clean as above, followed by light scrubbing with alcohol to remove any remaining paint residue. Rinse with water and a clean cloth. Dry Paint Removal - Please refer to paint- removal guide in the next section. 31 OTHER PAINT & GRAFFITI REMOVAL The following products have been tested on Nichiha panels to aid in the removal of graffiti type markings.* These citrus-based products can also be used for basic panel cleaning purposes. The panels were sprayed with an indoor/outdoor aerosol spray paint and left to dry overnight, and then the paint removal products were applied following the manufacturer’s guidelines. All products tested achieved good results. However, the outcome may vary depending on the amount of paint that needs to be removed. Be sure to follow all manufacturer’s guidelines and first test in an inconspicuous area before working on a larger area. Do NOT use these cleaners with Illumination Series. *Nichiha is not liable for any damage caused by the use of these cleaners.

The thicker panels provide a high quality look that matches the persona of this luxury complex. And Nichiha’s installed price—within one dollar per square foot of the competing cement siding product—easily justiwed the clear upgrade in performance. But the developer wanted ENDI to stand out, with a sleek, modern design aesthetic. Nichiha’s panel thickness offers durable performance, and the clip installation system provided assurance that the panels would be installed efwciently, correctly and securely. ENDI is built on a slope, and the side of the development facing Lake Superior stands six stories tall, giving everyone access to stunning views. But this also means the structure faces the very worst that Mother Nature can dish out. Frigid temperatures and 90 mile-per-hour winds are not uncommon. Building exteriors simply must be durable, which explains the common use of brick in the area. When you build on the scenic shores of Lake Superior, stunning views contrast with the harsh winters that these buildings must endure. But ENDI, a $36 million development by Harbor Bay Real Estate Advisors, still needed to look like the luxury apartment project it was intended to be. That’s why DSGW Architects selected Nichiha over traditional wber cement siding products—for looks and performance. And the price was right, too. DSGW had speciwed Nichiha products on past projects, ºbut we had really used it more as a statement piece,” said John Erickson, architect for the Minnesota-based wrm. ºWe wanted a certain look for ENDI, but at over 250,000 square feet, this was a big project. We didn’t think we could afford to use Nichiha for the full structure, so we originally planned to use another cementitious siding product.” The mixed use development features commercial tenants on the ground yoor and 143 luxury apartments above, below and on the ground yoor. Amenities include a wtness center, clubroom, technology area, private chef’s kitchen for entertaining, outdoor terrace with a bocce ball court and more. The architects knew the exterior needed to reyect the high end nature of the complex, so they combined VintageWood (installed vertically and horizontally) with Illumination panels (oriented horizontally) for a unique look that combines the sleek aesthetic of Illumination’s smooth, satin wnish with the natural warmth from VintageWood, all from one supplier. ENDI APARTMENTS IN DULUTH, MN Challenge Solution Results Architect: DSGW Architects Contractor: Northridge Construction Siding Installer: Webster Construction Location: Duluth, MN Products: Nichiha Illumination Series and Vintagewood™ Panels Scheduled Completion: Winter 2016 PROJECT DETAILS They chose both Bark and Cedar colors for the 10-foot VintageWood panels, and used the Color Xpressions system to paint the 6-foot Illumination panels to match Sherwin-Williams colors Naval, Dovetail and Iron "re. ºWith Nichiha, we were able to get the colors we wanted,” said Katherine Gerzina, designer with DSGW. ºThis made it so much nicer, because we could choose virtually any color. Custom colors with the other siding product would have really blown the budget.” Erickson added that Nichiha also gave them the commercial residential aesthetic they wanted, ºwith a cleaner, sleeker, more contemporary look and a thicker, more substantial product. The other siding option would have looked more like a typical house, which was not the quality look we wanted.” Duluth is a brick marketÆ ºthat’s the familiar material here,” added Gerzina. ºSo by combining brick on the lower level with both Nichiha products above, we got to combine old school, traditional brick with the new, sleek, modern look of Nichiha. They really complement each other and gave us nice design yexibility.” While DSGW wanted an expensive look, they still needed to keep things real. Erickson said, ºNorthridge, the contractor, wisely factored in the fact that the competing product would have had to be installed over furring strips. The pricing for the Nichiha system already included everything. When they considered all costs, Nichiha and the other siding ended up being within about one dollar per square foot of each other.” Erickson admitted that they were surprised to learn that the two were so close in price. ºWhen the developer realized they would only pay one dollar more per square foot for a much better performing, better designed, better looking product, the decision was made. Plus, we got the value add from the thicker panels with Nichiha.” DSGW had originally considered specifying metal panels, but were happy to simplify with Nichiha. ºBy not using the metal panels, you get rid of one more step in the construction process,” said Erickson. ºThe same crews installed both the VintageWood and the Illumination panels; they use the same installation system. It also saved us from having to design different material interfaces, so the detailing process was also simpler.” He added, ºThere was so much value added when we were able to design ENDI with Nichiha because of the thickness of the product, the custom colors and the overall wnish.” The resulting design gives the developer a sleek, sophisticated structure that will perform, even under Duluth’s harsh weather.

Prewnishing also saves their contractors time at the jobsite, allowing Kum & Go to focus on more important things—like growing their business. Although Kum & Go can’t always use the same contractor, the Nichiha system is easy to install; local contractors can fol- low the installation video instructions on Nichiha’s website. Plus, both Illumination and VintageWood panels use the same rainscreen system, making installation even simpler. Kum & Go operates in 11 states and is building more than one store each month, so speed is important but so is consistency. They wanted a repeatable look, something they could use across all new stores to provide consistency in their exterior design. They also wanted a product that could be installed on all stores at all locations. In the competitive convenience store market, brand consistency goes a long way. So when Kum & Go, the Iowa-based convenience store chain, set out to build 23 new stores featuring their new Marketplace design concept in 2016, they knew they needed to do two things\ differentiate their stores in the market and do so with a unique look that would be readily recognizable and easily repeated. ºEverything about our new Marketplace design is different—both inside and out,” said Todd Felger, architectural design manager for Kum & Go. ºWe wanted to take things to the next level, so our new store designs feature contemporary exteriors with wood accents—all from Nichiha.” Kum & Go already operates more than 400 stores in 11 states, so healthy growth is nothing new. But most of their previous prototypical stores featured brick exteriors. ºFrom our early development of the Marketplace design concepts, we knew that we wanted a wber cement exterior,” said Felger. ºWe wanted a certain look, and we wanted to move to a different cladding material because of the labor involved with brick. So we did some research, and BRR Architecture brought the Nichiha material to our attention. Then Nichiha’s region manager came to Des Moines and built mock-up panels to show us what the products could do.” Kum & Go wanted a material that would brighten their exteriors, and because some Nichiha products can be pre- wnished, they could have any color they wanted. They chose 16-inch Illumination panels painted Sherwin Williams Eider White, accented by a stripe around the building with panels painted Repose Gray. Then they added a warm accent of VintageWood panels in cedar. KUM & GO STORE #0979 IN ROCK SPRINGS, WY Challenge Solution Results Architect: BRR Architecture Contractor: Hudspeth & Associates Location Rock Springs, WY Product Nichiha Illumination & VintageWood PROJECT DETAILS ºNichiha prewnished the panels so we eliminated the painting aspect of construction,” said Felger. ºHaving the wnish facto- ry-applied in a controlled environment removes the variability of jobsite conditions and we eliminate painting expense. Siding trades also have lower hourly rates than masonry; it’s much simpler without multiple subcontractors. º Felger added, ºPlus with Nichiha, we’re not required to ºtent the building” or use propane heaters in the winter months to keep it warm. You can install Nichiha in all types of weather, even when your wngers can’t move, which describes most Midwest winters.” While looks matter, so does performance, said Felger. ºWeather, wind loading and durability are always a consideration. "ur stores get a lot of trafwc, so we needed siding that will stand up over time. Nichiha has been a durable material for us.” Moisture management is also important to Kum & Go, and Felger said they appreciate that Nichiha comes as an engineered system. ºTheir rain screen means we don’t have to rely on caulk joints at every panel; moisture manage- ment takes place behind the siding. Plus, Nichiha comes as a complete sys- tem, built to be installed a certain way with all the fasteners, rails and brack- ets. We don’t need to make things up as we go, which is so important as we build these stores across the 11 states where we do business. "ur contractors follow Nichiha’s instructions, which are simple and easy to understand.” As a fast growing company, simplicity matters. ºEase of installation, prewn- ished colors… these are huge pluses for us in terms of the repeatability of it all,” said Felger. ºWe have a prototypical design for a reason; we want to build multiple stores in multiple markets. If we build wve stores, they’re all going to look alike. If you take one piece of Nichiha panel and hold it up against another store, it’s a perfect match. It’s nice that we can rely on that consistency, which allows us to move on to other things.” Felger added, ºKum & Go will be building about 25 to 30 stores a year in the future, and Nichiha will be part of that growth. They’re a great partner.” “We wanted consistency, so as people are driving down the road, they can say ‘oh, there’s a Kum & Go; we know what that looks like and we know what we can expect inside that store.’ Nichiha gives us that brand consistency.” – Todd Felger, Kum & Go About Nichiha USA: U.S. manufacturing plant in Macon, Ga., responding to an increase in demand foƌĮďĞƌĐĞŵĞŶƚƉƌoducts in the nichiha.com BRR Architecture Nichiha Case Study nichiha.com 6465 E Johns Crossing Johns Creek, GA 30097 Media Contact: Brenda Collons 425.277.9951©2016 Nichiha USA, Inc.

In the past few years, the Commission has conducted the election after the hearings on the agenda so that applicants and members of the public would not need to sit through the election. The Chair or Vice Chair from the previous year has run the meeting until the election in these cases. Staff recommends that the Commission hold the election in this way. If Commissioners would rather hold the election at the beginning of the meeting, a member can make a motion to amend the agenda. Chair White will not be present at the January meeting. She has indicated that she would be happy to serve as Chair again in 2018 if the Commission nominates and elects her. She anticipates being absent for at least 4 of the meetings because she spends the winter in Arizona. AGENDA ITEM: 8
