PlanningBoard | 2016-04-11 | 2 | President Knox White asked about the light wells on the east side of the building. Mr. Kwan explained that they break up the facade and allow light on the property line wall. President Knox White asked how far the parking spaces were from the existing buildings. Mr. Kwan said it was approximately three feet. Board Member Köster asked if the one bathroom between two retail spaces would be sufficient. Mr. Kwan said they could amend the plan depending on the needs of the tenants. President Knox White opened the public hearing. Council Member Daysog, speaking as a member of the public and a neighbor of the project, said option A was preferable but the windows on the western side of the building on option B play off the Aria building better. He said he would like to see an additional window on the eastern side of the building for aesthetics. President Knox White closed the public hearing. Board Member Köster said option A has a grander feel. He said the attempt at a more traditional look on option B would need much more detail if we went that way. He said the laundry location needs help in order to not have to go through a bedroom to reach the laundry. Board Member Mitchell said he prefers option A. Board Member Zuppan said she liked the art deco feel but that it needs to go further in addressing the details. She said she was concerned with the proximity of some of the parking spaces to the front doors of the homes. Board Member Sullivan said she prefers option A but does not like the design of the windows on the second floor. She said she is concerned that the project have enough parking and not spill any cars onto the streets. Board Member Henneberry said he prefers option A. President Knox White said he prefers option A. He said he is concerned with the configuration of the parking and their proximity to the houses. He said short term bike parking needs to be provided on the sidewalk. He said he would be supportive of going with three smaller units on the second floor instead of two larger ones.
