>> Alana Whitehead, Okay, we will make that correction. >> Okay. Bob Nanstat, >> Angela Truck, >> Alana Whitehead, >> four. Next item on the agenda is consideration of a level two application for the repaint of the mural of an existing commercial building located
655292. >> Sure. Thank you. Yes. So this is a level two application which is the lesser of the two in terms of complexity. Um it's an already existing commercial building uh where they are proposing a repaint
with a mural and murals are one of the things that have to go before this board. Um CAB has to review exterior building and roof colors for any non-residential development within the C1 zoning district. Um the use of the
building is a permitted use. Uh we don't have any issues in terms of use. um they've been going through the building permit process in terms of a few renovations they've been doing and the mural is one of their last steps in their process. They've applied for their
business tax license. Um but with these level two requests, there are certain criteria that the board considers when reviewing applications like this. So the staff report outlines all of those. So I won't uh go through each one of them individually, but essentially you're
looking at things like whether uh the the paint is done in a manner that is harmonious um to the surrounding area, the cultural community uh character. you're looking at uh making sure that the plans are not excessively similar or
dissimilar to other buildings in a way that would be, you know, disruptive to the community and harm the community appearance. Uh but you can go through all of those criteria in general. Uh staff is supportive of the criteria and
finds that the application does meet the criteria. And for that reason, community and economic development staff recommended that the board approve the application. Uh so if you have any questions, we are here for you. And we also have both the applicant and the
muralist painter here. And I'd propose that we also give them an opportunity to speak. And Adam, if you could go up there and then just give an introduction and the the microphone should already be on, but just test it out.
>> Yep. Good afternoon. My name is Adam Aman. I'm the owner of Blaze Smoke Shop, as maybe some of you are familiar. Been in town in Cocoa Beach since 2015. Um, we just purchased the property at 6992 North Atlantic. Uh, we beautified
the whole property. We remodeled everything. Everything is nice and clean. And like Connor said, our last step is to do a beautiful uh mural around the property. I have my artist uh David Rothman over here. He's a professional artist. We have some samples over here we would like to show
you and some pictures of the ones that he did in Cocoa Beach as well. And uh that's basically it. Uh it's a tourist attraction. You know, people love to take pictures with the mural and it really intensifies the area and will beautify it.
>> Thank you. >> Would you like No, I I realize that. But >> I just have to say that >> the mirror part is fine. Just >> the colors. The colors. >> The colors. >> Colors. >> Okay. It says that we shouldn't have
bright or brilli It says bright or brilliant colors shall not be permitted except for use as an accent color. How could anyone say that that is not a bright or brilliant color? It looks like a billboard. >> Uh so it's very close to the colors that
we have in Cocoa Beach cuz the building is >> But you have green in Cocoa Beach. It's green. You have to say the background is red and it has leaves. >> It's not This is anxiety producing to to me. It's not >> I mean I I I I actually got the our
vision statement from city of Cape Canaveral and it just in no way uh jibes with um >> with the rest of the community. >> Yeah. It says an inclusive beast community that embraces its small town feel and enhances the beauty and and
integrity of its natural environment. This is is the antithesis of that. >> Okay. >> In my in my in my view what's your feeling? >> Excuse me. Alan, can you please go to the podium so I can >> we can capture you. >> It's a lot brighter than I thought it
should be. Yes. >> Yeah. But the building next to it is the same color. So, >> and when did we Yeah. Why did we do that? >> I don't I don't remember ever ever approving it. >> It's horrible. Yeah. >> And all of us and all of a sudden there
was a red building there and then they put the mural on it, but I don't remember ever discussing it. Yeah, >> this is why this board exists to present this kind of thing. Yeah, >> but the building next to it is pretty much the same color. >> It's still awful. And that's something we should address. We should address
that in the future. >> Yeah. >> But look how much better this I mean, I don't even like this. But at least this is just a small amount. >> All right. Do you hear why the city thought this was okay? >> So I do think that it ties into the
cult. >> I think that was the issue over there. Apologies about that. So in general this is, you know, harmonious with the space industry culture. Certainly do agree that it is very bright. Um so you know
it's at the end of the day a recommendation. So, if the board, you know, finds that it needs to be some more muted colors or a different design, that's certainly at y'all's discretion. Uh, in terms of the bright and brilliant, I definitely do agree that this is meeting that definition of
bright and brilliant. >> Okay. >> The space industry part is is fine. I mean, you know, >> it doesn't have to be orange. >> No, no, no. Yeah. But I mean the colors absolutely have to change. >> Absolutely. Totally agree.
>> From north and south or just >> everything. Everything. It's just too It looks like a It doesn't look like a mural to me. >> It's going to look a lot different from paper. >> You know, I just don't think you know if
you drive all through Cape Canapple, there is nothing. We have many murals, you know, the fishing center. You know, they're all over, >> but not these coasts. >> We wanted to stick more to like the Space Coast theme. And
>> that's not Space Coast. I like the Space Coast. Space isn't that color. >> Black and blue. >> Yeah. >> Red and orange and yellow. I'm sorry. I definitely I I would move
to say no to this proposal. you guys are certainly able to, you know, make a motion or if you do want to give a opportunity for closing statements or anything of that sort. >> I move that reject proposal >> or the motion.
Elena Whitehead for the motion. >> Angela Trielock. >> All right. Well, >> I have a question. >> And Adam, would you be able to just go up to the Thank you. Thank you. Uh my question is uh since the colors of
my business is red, I wanted to know is it possible to start off with a red and we'll change we'll revise it to make it look more >> as billboard. >> Yes. >> As it says in the in the in the
regulations for the city for a subtle background accent. Yes. Your primary >> in your face. Okay. So, we could uh we could revise it and make it less uh more looking like hallucin. But I just wanted to make sure I just
wanted to make sure that it's fine that I start off with a red base cuz there's other properties in Cape Canaveral that are red >> where the one >> next door >> and Coco and Coco and Cocoa Beach as well. Cocoa Beach didn't have a problem with it. >> Okay. If it if it's this amount of of
red, I could probably live with that. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> Oh, well, yeah. Ollie on the side. I'm not about the size, but I I think this is very attractive. >> I appreciate it >> in terms of the neural, but um
>> I just don't find that it blends in with >> Do we know what microphone that is? >> Do you want to see the second uh This doesn't have much Yeah, I mean >> just to make sure, could the board
members talk into their mics a little bit closer just to make sure we capture it? I'm sorry. >> And Adam, I do need you to go to the podium, please. >> Thank you. Have you gotten positive feedback about this from >> it's uh you know he's the artist you
know he's putting it catches your attention. >> All right. So, in general, I've heard, you know, uh less bright colors, um maybe a red accent color, but not necessarily a red base. and
still potentially pursuing the space theme or a different theme. Yeah. >> All right. Well, that is the last item on our agenda. I'll leave it up to you guys if you had any other open comment. I think
>> that is a mural on that. >> Yes. >> Yeah. I do believe that there is a mural and we can Yeah. And we can, you know, communicate that to code enforcement because Yeah. >> Because once you start then the person says, "Well, look next door." They allowed it.
>> Exactly. It's harmonious all the time, >> right? And this is more of a laidback community, not with the in your face colors. >> And I totally understand from a business point of view that you want to attract
attention. However, that's not what >> Mhm. All right. >> Yeah, that one's all right. Meeting adjourned. question. >> Okay. Well, so how would we know the president's like it or not or other than
like
