PlanningBoard | 2021-06-28 | 7 | Board Member Ruiz thanked them for the presentation. She wanted to know from an operational standpoint how the loading and unloading would be handled, such as where the loading truck would be parked and how deliveries would work. Mr. Cukierman explained since they couldn't have a curb cutout there was still space in front of the bus stop for a truck to pull in and load and unload. Board Member Ruiz asked about the previous suggestion of shared parking and wanted to know if anyone had reached out to the Walgreens or Starbucks across the street. Mr. Cukierman said he had not tried to contact those corporations but he had tried to reach out to the Rodeway Inn but kept getting a voice message that said the inbox had not been set up yet. Board Member Rothenberg thanked everyone. She wanted clarification about the dates on the drawings, the drawings that they received were dated March 12th and the presentation, the visuals they had shared, was dated June 28th. Mr. Waterman clarified that the plans and elevations were the same as what was in the documents, nothing had changed. Board Member Rothenberg asked about the Dark Sky Ordinance and wanted to make sure it was sufficient as it was stated in the resolution. She wanted to make sure that the condition did not have to be detailed in any more specificity than it already was. She had a similar question and concern in regard to obtaining an encroachment permit for the work that was going to be done at the curb. Other than these concerns she thought it was a wonderful project. Staff Member Tai addressed the Dark Sky Ordinance and said it required lighting to be downward pointed and for fixtures to be shielded. He added that staff felt that this project could meet those standards, they were being pointed out in the conditions to make sure they were addressed at the final building plans. He also stated that the revised resolution that was introduced at the beginning of this item had language that addressed the issues around the encroachment permit. President Teague asked if the Dark Sky Ordinance would also apply to the lighting under the trellises. Staff Member Tai said it would. President Teague's concern was for the lighting on the first page that had a lovely circle of lights that looked like it was radiating in all directions. Mr. Waterman added that they would shield that, it would be in all directions except up. President Teague opened public comments.
