Building (continued) • Walter pointed out that the fence and building are different material and he suggested that if they were both brick or both wood then it would blend in and the fence would be part of the building design. Don Megathlin commented they will look at it, but that Walgreens being a national tenant has their own style of design. • Tom O'Hara asked were the AC condensers located on the ground for the small F-1 building. David Coughlan responded "no", nothing is on the ground. Parkin • Walter said he has an issue with parking. He said he would like to see Applicant take the site plan and color in building and color in parking spaces with same color for that building so that you would see where parking spaces are for each building. But he said don't spend more than an hour on this color coding exercise. David Coughlan said nobody has assigned parking so what is the point. Walter responded that the Committee is always being questioned about parking and this way we can say there is enough parking and this is where you go to park. • Charlie Maintanis stated that South Street side is going to have a parking problem putting in 2 more buildings. Charlie said if you were to look at zoning requirements only you would need 93 spaces for Walgreens alone. • Don Megathlin pointed out that when Cape Cod Commission approved, they had less parking. They decreased building size and increased parking spaces. • Tom O'Hara asked whether Cape Cod Commission based parking on use and do restaurants require more parking spaces? Don Megathlin said restaurants do not require more parking; Cape Cod Commission basis on retail use...all the same. Walter cautioned they be careful because of ADA requirements. Charlie Maintanis added that as it now stands Wicked,is in violation of handicap parking requirement. David Coughlan said that will be corrected with F-1 building. Charlie said with Walgreens building we would need 4 handicap spaces. Don Megathlin said they talked about that and will do something about that. • Bob Nelson asked whether there was any way South Cape Village could put restriction on employee parking. David Coughlan said they do have restriction in place and they are trying to enforce it. • Charlie Maintanis to look at handicap parking because they don't have enough handicap parking. Conclusions: • Applicant did not have main roof elevation; Applicant will get this information and add to building plan. • Bike racks not shown on site plan; will be added. • Tom O'Hara said Applicant will need to do better on handicap parking; crosswalks; loading dock area and traffic issues. • Tom O'Hara asked whether the sidewalk at Walgreens could be kicked down and place plantings to reduce height. Applicant said they will look at it. • Bob Nelson said there is no need to state pharmacy on the signage on Walgreens building. David Coughlan said they can ask Walgreens to eliminate, but they doubt they will agree. 3
