STAIRWAY/ ELEVATOR TOWERS Santa Anita Park is proposing to renovate the grandstand area of Santa Anita Park that will include a new deck to accommodate a restaurant near the top of the stands, In a 11 6/15/99 41:0156 (Race Track) memorandum dated May 27, 1999, Santa Anita indicated the need for vertical circulation, and the unique nature of the restaurant has resulted in the design of two stairways and elevator towers on the front fa9ade of the grandstand, The restaurant and bar area will have approximately 25,000 sq. ft, The towers are approximately 45' square and 84' in height. The towers will be stucco painted to match the existing grandstands and are designed to be compatible with the existing building, Future development will incorporate the towers into a grand master plan that will allow the towers to serve both the existing grandstand and any future development. I The Development Services Department has some concerns with the overall design of the towers, Although the towers will be painted to match the building and have incorporated some of the design eiements of the existing bUiiding, it is staff's opinion that more architecturai treatment is necessary to provide a balance with the existing structures, Following the staff presentation, Greg Tate, Santa Anita Project Manager, responded to concerns expressed by the Council regarding architectural enhancements and future development. Mayor Pro tem Harbicht stated. in part, that he does not have any problem with the architecture of the facade. however, he would like to see the horse theme carried out to some extend on the front of the towers to preserve the elements of the track that are visible from a distance, Also. Mr. Harbicht stated that he would like to see the master plan for the Santa Anita Project. Councilmember Marshall stated, in part, that she is in favor of the size and location of the towers, She would also like to see the towers blend with the existing grandstand, Councilmember Kovacic agreed with Mr. Harbicht's comments and he also would like to see the master plan for this project. I MOTION NO, 1 It was MOVED by Mayor Pro tem Harbicht, seconded by Councilmember Marshall and CARRIED on roll call vote as follows to APPROVE the size and location of the towers, subject to the condition that Santa Anita continue to work with the Development Services Department to enhance the exterior elevations of the towers to incorporate more elements of the existing buildings and that said final design shall be presented to the City Council for final review and approval.
