July 19, 2023 Regular Meeting Minutes

stop signs will become less effective because there will so many of them. He said that they will consider putting the light in the areas of high traffic and pedestrian volume. ¢ Chairman Bagoff asked if the blinking stop lights can be solar powered. Mr. Delaney said that they can incorporate solar powered lights to the stop lights. « Mr. Morgan asked if they will be increasing ADA spaces. Mr. Delaney said that there will be 27 ADA spaces strategically place throughout the parking lot. ¢ Chairman Bagoff asked if the applicant will use cool pavement to decrease the heat island effect. Mr. Delaney said that the applicant has consider using the cool pavement technology, but believes that the are some disadvantages in using those pavement types because the materials are not as strong and not as robust which is not something you want for a shopping center, since shopping centers see very high vehicular loads, a lot of loading movements, truck traffic, etc. Another option would be porous pavers, but unfortunately the site has not filtered and based on their prior drainage work done, the soils on site really don't provide permeability. He said that the water would have nowhere to go once it goes inside of the permeable pavers and because of that is why they focused so heavily on incorporating these large landscape islands throughout and plant trees in there, which will have some large canopies. e Mr. Smeraldo asked if the entrance near Mavis building will be eliminated. Mr. Delaney answered in the affirmative. e Mr. Smeraldo asked if the elevated areas will be safe guarded. Mr. Delaney said that they will be providing a guardrail along the top of that to protect pedestrians from falling and have a handrail on it. He said that in the rear, where that 13-half foot wall is to accommodate the loading docks, they are going to be providing a fence along the top of that wall. They don't expect any pedestrians in that area, but because it is so close to the property line, they want to make sure that they are providing safety measures. e Mr. Jensen asked where trucks will be entering and exiting the building. Mr. Delany said that they will enter the site off of Eagle Rock Ave and will be able to make either a right into the site or a left into the site. He said that they will then continue around the South side of the building going to the West around the rear and

Rock Ave and will be able to make either a right into the site or a left into the site. He said that they will then continue around the South side of the building going to the West around the rear and they'll access all of the loading docks. They will then continue out through the rear parking lot along a small portion of the frontage of the A building, then continue South along the main building; the trucks will make a left and go out the northern entrance and exit the site onto Prospect Ave. ¢ Chairman Bagoff asked what the hours will be for deliveries. Mr. Delaney said they will be during the evening. PROFESSIONAL QUESTIONS ¢ Mr. Jordan asked if they go over water quantity. Mr. Delaney said that there are a handful of different calculations that we can provide. The most common and the one this board has probably seen the most is the incorporation of detention basins, to meet specific reductions in stormwater runoff and this is common in any kind of development, where they are proposing to increase the impervious on site, add new buildings, add new parking lots, etc. This site is rather unique in that they are actually reducing the impervious coverage on site and also the amount of motor vehicle surface. PUBLIC QUESTION ¢ Mr. Matthew Rosen, representing the owners at 57 Terrace Ave,. asked how high the light at the back of the shopping center will be. Mr. Delaney said that the high is 18 feet. e Mr. Rosen asked if it possible to put a barrier between the property and shopping center to keep the noise, odors and light away from the residential properties to the north. Mr.
