Mr. Tim Nobles representing Noble’s Car Care located at 91 Syracuse Street.  Mr. Nobles explained they are proposing to expand the customer service area and renovating the facades of this building. The roof is new last year, and it is blue medal, his intent is to achieve the look of the NAPA building located at 74 East Genesee Street.  The cement blocks will be painted gray and the front facades will have either brick or split face block on the exterior.  Mr. Nobles stated the lighting would only be updated with LED and not replaced.  The larger window will be replaced with smaller aluminum sliders.  His intent is to bump out the entrance way 4 feet and take out the doorway.  He wants a vestibule to protect the offices from some of the cold air coming into the offices.  Mr. Nobles continued if they bump out this area it would alter the roof.  Mr. King reminded him that would have to be reviewed with Mr. Humphrey in the Codes Department.   There are two (2) other doors that needs to be replaced.  Last year Nobles replaced the lift in the garage.  After installing this lift, they realized it was 12” larger and they could not close the overhead door.  With this renovation it will correct the lift issue and all the doors will now match.
