Committee Questions, Comments, Concerns

  • What is the width of your planting bed?  PP: 8'
  • Why is the fence three feet of the property line?  PP: to have some additional buffer
  • Blue hollies are not condusive to salt.  May want to use a juniper around the parking lot instead.
  • Appreciate the continous curb.  What is the distance from the curb to the planting bed.  Concerned about overhang. PP: 2'
  • Why are you re-using the board on board fencing? PP: still in good condition, was installed a few years ago.
  • Where is the area for the "snow-push"?  Can you shift the parking lot?
  • Setback issues possible next to a residence. Double check the code or move your planting bed.
  • Why is the drive apron on Lausche instead of Norwood? PP: wanted to keep traffic off of Norwood.
  • PP: a little over 1-foot candlelight including the street poles.

 

Motion to approve with the condition that the street trees be added per code and not using the blue hollies but instead, allow for snowpush to move the plant material to the north to allow for more distance to the curb line.
