PlanningBoard | 2022-02-14 | 5 | Board Member Xiomara Cisneros agreed with Board Member Hom about less parking and was sad about one less unit but overall it was a better design. She believed the elimination of minimum parking made it a better fit and hoped other developers would consider eliminating parking. She supported the project. Board Member Teague agreed with Board Member Cisneros and thought that staff should take note of the change they were approving for these canopies and add them to the list of the Design Standards. Board Member Curtis could not support this project due to the flow. He felt that the overall flow of the garbage pick-up and the play area was unsafe. President Saheba wanted to add to the motion that the staff works with the applicant to ensure that this project meets the Fair Housing Guidelines. Also, that staff works with the applicant that the site meets egress lighting. Staff Member Tai explained that these issues would be reviewed during the Building Permit review. Board Member Hom made a motion to approve the modifications to the Design Review with the acceptance to the amendment to the design of the canopy, so they have flexibility, and the amendment to Condition #9 to correct the required number of bicycle parking spaces, 8 long term, and 2 short term. Also the addition of bollards in the parking lot, review of the lighting plans as well as ensuring that the project meets Accessible and Fair Housing Guidelines. Board Member Teague seconded the motion. A roll call vote was taken and the motion passed 6-1 with Board Member Curtis voting against. 7-C 2022-1744 Public Workshop to Review and Comment on the Draft Housing Element Update and Zoning Code Amendments for Park Street, Webster Street, and Commercial Areas to Accommodate the Regional Housing Needs Allocation for the Period 2023-2031 in Compliance with State Law Director Thomas introduced the item and gave a presentation.
