Ms. Janice Lowe, represented the owner/developers and addressed the
commissioners on staff comments received on January 15, 2001. She believes all
of the comments will be addressed on the final site plan, however, item f.
requested a sanitaiy sewer cleanout on the property line which can not be meet
due to constraints of the lot's characteristics and Autumn Creek Development.
She asked for a waiver on that requirement. She is working with staff on a
resolution for this item. Commissioner Frankovich asked for some clarification as
to what tract this was in the Autumn Creek development and to identify the drive
behind the Albertson's shown on the site plan. Frankovich also wanted to know if
any curbs existed along the drive on the Albertson's tract next to the children's
playground area. Ms. Lowe could not confirm that curbs existed. Chairman
Burke wanted to know how many children will be attending the day care. Ms.
Lowe did not know at this time. Burke also believed the day care would fall
under parking group 14 and therefore would only require 32 parking spaces total.
It was also noted by Burke that the landscaping plan submitted by the applicant
indicates a wire fence along side of an eight foot ma�onry fence. This is an e1rnr
which will be corrected on the final site plan. Commissioner Frankovich noted
that the dumpster screening shown on the site plan does not show a gate for the ·
front of the dumpster enclosure. This item should also be corrected on the final
site plan. Commissioner Burke asked if the developer would be agre eable to
providing a four foot fence or some type of vegetation screening around the air
conditioning units. Ms. Lowe will check with the owner. She also stated that at
the request of Autumn Creek Development, no light beacon would be placed
inside the lighthouse feature of the development. A photometric plan has been
reviewed by staff which meets city ordinances.

comments. At this time applicants would like to apply for building permits which
