continues to worsen. A traffic signal is not an option at this location. Does not apply to this

[6/30/061 Based on the Site Plan layout, service access to the businesses, especially in the

Number: 44 Created: 6/30/2006
[6/30/061 Is the crosswalk from the small, drive -up building to the larger building going to be
an enhanced pedestrian crossing, or could it be? It is in an awkward location relative to the
potential vehicular movement and crossovers. This is a raised walk so the cars have to
cross slowly. There will also be signage to warn of pedestrian crossing.

Topic: Lighting Plan
Number: 51 Created: 7/3/2006
[7/3106] There are a couple of spots on the Lighting/Photometric Plan that are right on or
just over the allowable level of 10 foot-candles. Why would the 'Type B" light over the entry
to the larger building create that much light? Is it the fluorescent source that makes it that
high and could another type fixture be used? Just to reiterate, Section 3.2.4(D)(3) states that
"Light sources shall be concealed and full shielded and shall feature sharp cut-off capability
so as to minimize up -light, spill -light, glare and unnecessary diffusion on adjacent property".
Also, Section 3.2.4(D)(7) states that "Maximum on -site lighting levels shall not exceed ten
(10) foot-candles, except for loading and unloading platforms where the maximum fighting
level shall be twenty (20) foot-candles". Fixed.
Topic: Site Plan

[6/30/06] The Site Plan must identify all proposed uses in the buildings. The "Drive -Up
Building Area" must be identified as Drive-Thru Coffee, as shown on the Landscape Plan.
The Site Plan must also identify the larger building as containing a restaurant (if truly
intended), as shown on the Landscape Plan. Done.

Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Steve Olt
Topic: Building Elevations
Number: 47 Created: 6/30/2006
[6/30/06] The drive-thru coffee building is very nice looking. However, the elevations are
quite small and some of the information is very difficult to read. Could these elevations be
enlarged somewhat? What do the numbers in the squares refer to on all 4 elevations? There
is no legend on the Building Elevations Plan. Done
Number: 49 Created: 6/30/2006
[6/30/061 The larger, 2-story Office/Retail/Restaurant (maybe) building is very nice looking.
However, the west elevation does not appear to satisfy the standard set forth in Section
3.5.3(C)(1) of the Land Use Code. This section states that the horizontal mass shall not
exceed a height -width ratio of 1:3 without substantial variation in massing that includes a
change in height and a projecting or recessed element. This elevation is 120' long and is
28.5' high, for a ratio of approximately 1:4. Therefore, there should be some element of
height change on this elevation. This elevation features a curved face that projects from
the rest of the building approx. 10' which we feel meets this standard.
Topic: General Comments
Number: 38 Created: 6/30/2006
16/30/06] The proposed building sizes are inconsistent between the Site Plan and the
Landscape Plan. The Site Plan shows the small building to be 325 square feet and the
Landscape Plan shows the same building to be 400 square feet. The Site Plan shows the
larger building to be 11,744 square feet and the Landscape Plan shows the same building to
be 11,500 square feet. Please reconcile this discrepancy. Fixed.

shopping center) is 39 spaces, which is within the allowable 5 spaces per 1,000 square feet
of total leasable floor area, being somewhere between 11,825 square feet & 12,144 square
feet (depending on reconciling the square footages on the Site & Landscape Plans). OK
