Show all pagesR. Miller asked about the proposed privacy fence between the rear of the building to the east and the garbage area confirming that there is no plan for a perimeter fencingalong the eastern side abutting the condo area. Mr. Ritchie said no that they looked into that and had originally contemplated a privacy fence along the entire perimeter. But as mentioned in earlier testimony, there are a number of trees along the eastern property line and substantial vegetation along the southern portion of this eastern property line and to circumvent those trees with a new fence. But if the Board disagrees or feels differently, Mr. Ritchie believes that the applicant would be open to considering a fence along the entire way it just did not make sense at the time. Ms. Miller asked in reference to the Sustainability Checklist, if the applicant could agree to roofing material being light gray color instead of a dark material. Mr. Ritchie said that he’s deferring to the architect to answer, but he believes the roof color being white. L. Cohen asked in reference to trees, to which Mr. Ritchie referenced his plans to what trees were staying as opposed to those being removed. Mr. Cohen asked about the green roof and what the costs could possibly be. Mr. Ritchie said that he hadn’t looked at a green roof for this facility but from his experience they are very expensive per square foot and require structural reinforcement because they do have a load. There are a lot of other considerations that come into play with a green roof for a facility like this, but reiterated that he doesn’t believe the benefits would be justified based on the cost and the other design elements/criteria involved. Adding that there is no reason from a Sotrmwater Management perspective to install a green roof. Mr. Cohen asked if when the building is being taken down, would there be a way to recycle or use those stones again instead of just throwing it in the garbage. Mr. Ritchie said that if someone was found interested in reusing it, or wanted to take it that he is sure the applicant would be willing to work with them.
