These walkways will all be reconstructed with new pavers and curbs. Additionally, the existing walkway, which extends from the front entry and extends to the landscaped area on the western side of the site, will be regraded to eliminate the existing steps. • Remove the existing fountain, traffic islands, curbing and related infrastructure from the Lot B parking area. This parking area will be reconfigured and reconstructed with new curbing and islands. Six (6) new ADA-compliant spaces will be installed on the western side of the parking lot, two (2) of which will be equipped with EV-chargers. Four (4) EV-charging stalls will also be installed in the southeastern corner of the lot. A new landscaped water feature will also be constructed on the reconfigured island at the southwestern corner of Lot B. • Additionally, the entire driveway will be reconstructed with pavers, from the ingress at the northeastern corner of the site, off of Prospect Avenue, to the egress located further to the south.

As part of this reconstruction, the egress driveway will be widened at the egress onto Prospect Avenue and straightened out to a width of 24-feet. The existing striping on Prospect Avenue will also be modified and widened to facilitate the widened and reconfigured egress. • As indicated earlier, the area to the south and west of the existing accessory building will be converted to a community garden. Plans show this area will be modified to accommodate a series of beds and planting areas for a variety of herbs and vegetables, some of which, plans indicate will be used by the restaurant/banquet facility.
