PlanningBoard | 2017-07-24 | 2 | Staff Member Thomas said the Del Monte building is about one thousand feet long, approximately twice as long as this building. Board Member Zuppan asked if they were planning to use rip rap or a planted edge. The landscape architect said they are planning to have a stabilized soil edge which would have plantings at the water's edge. Board Member Zuppan asked what the plan for sea level rise is for the park area. The landscape architect said the elevation of the park area was about four feet above current sea level. Board Member Köster asked about cutting the building in two and creating a public access through the middle of the site. Mr. Vasquez said that it would create a security concern and that the large setbacks on the sides of the building would create a better connection for the community. Board Member Köster asked if there were any plans to have any marina or boat access at the site. Mr. Vasquez said the ownership was not interested in managing a marina and competing against adjacent marinas. Board Member Köster said the ground floor units near the garage access sites would be heavily impacted and the use needed to be reconsidered. Board Member Curtis asked if the two garage entrances were large enough to allow two way traffic. Mr. Vasquez said the driveways would each be two way. Board Member Knox White asked why none of the Ship Ways ramps were used in the site for the park forms. The landscape architect said that they wanted to create a usable site and the slope of the ramps were too severe to encourage many of the activities they envision for the park. Board Member Knox White asked why they needed a roadway next to the existing roadway. Mr. Vasquez said they see that area as a place for prospective residents to come into the site. He said it could have a different pavement treatment and be a nice feature. Approved Minutes Page 2 of 9 July 24. 2017 | PlanningBoard/2017-07-24.pdf |
