FINDINGS OF FACT:

The primary brick of the building would be extruded, in a Mudbox Watex – Keuka color, manufactured by Watsontown, with Glen Gery G-402 Mortar color. The highlight brick of the building would be extruded, in a 853 Andiron color, manufactured by United Clay Products, with Glen Gery G-402 Mortar color. Cast Stone would be used on the structure in Wheatstone color, manufactured by RockCast, in Architectural Series style. The Windows would be Anderson Windows, having a frame color of Terratone and the Roofing would be Weathered Wood color, manufactured by GAF Timberline.
- The Board found the Landscaping Plan to be acceptable.
- The Board found that the proposed exterior mechanical equipment between the Romano Building and the new administration building would be hidden with landscaping.
