Memorandum Page 14 of 17 236 BROAD STREET, RED BANK, NJ 07701 • TEL 732.741.2900 • FAX 732.741.2929 • MAIL@HGAPA.COM • www.HGAPA.com calculations within the Site Plan drawing set shall be revised per the table above; as 187 physical spaces are proposed, the EV bonus creates a total of 191 spaces. e. Further, applicant should confirm the number of spaces that are non-conforming parking stall sizes. f. Per State EV ordinance 8 make ready spaces are required to be provided. The plan only provides 4 spaces. This needs to be revised since no variance can be granted in the required number of EV spaces. g. Existing dumpsters are located in the north eastern portion of the site near the Mount Pleasant Place access. No screening is provided around this area. Further, during site visit it was noted these dumpsters were in a disarray. Applicant should consider creating an enclosure to demarcate this boundary. h. Truck turning diagram accessing the dumpsters should be provided. Further, frequency of dumpster pick up should be discussed, considering it is closer to the residential uses. i. Ponding issues were noted throughout the site. We defer to the Board Engineer to discuss this further and if the site can be remediated. j. Due to the type of retail proposed, we recommend crosswalks be provided from parking to the entrance of the retail store, in order for safe pedestrian circulation. k. As shown, the façade along the Trader Joe’s tenancy is being updated, we recommend that the main building façade should be updated in order to appear a cohesive updated façade. Applicant should provide testimony regarding the color and updates to the façade. 10. Signage Illuminated channel-letter signage for Trader Joe’s is proposed along both the Mount Pleasant Avenue and Pleasant Valley Way street frontages.
