Committee Comments: Josh: Is the adjacent Dental officed building two or three stories? David Rausch: Two stories. Christine:Are the major surgeries for any outpatients or overnight patients?David Rausch:No overnight patients, observational space only. Brad: Is the pedestrian crosswalk necessary to access this building from Lakefront Court?Alexia Lopez: We asked for another sidewalk connection to the north to get from Cannel Drive to the multi-use path,but we did not ask for a crosswalk at Lakefront Court.Josh: My thought is that anyone walking to this would be using the path on Cannel Drive. David Rausch: We looked at every option,and from the building standpoint it is not optional.There's a fairly large grade change and there's not enough space to do a connection at Lakefront Court,presented Site Plan. Josh: Has there been any consideration of including any covered bike parking?Your patients will probably not be driving,but your staff might ride their bikes. Burke Chegar,owner: I actively engaged with my Staff in the design of this building and none of them expressed the interest in riding their bikes to work. Brad: Will sign location be practical when the trees along Cannel Drive are mature?David Rausch: We think so. There will be a point in time that the red oaks will be tall,and their canopies will be much higher than the sign.Kevin: Can we ask the Urban Forester to pick trees that will not grow large enough to block or cover the signage?A tree should never block any sign.Alexia Lopez: I will have the Urban Forester look over this. Carrie: This presents a tricky corner,and the monument sign for the Orthodontal Office is necessary.David Rausch: Our wall sign will help with the visibility from the west.We can work with Planning Staff and the Urban Forester with the trees along Cannel Drive and whether or not a wall or monument sign is needed. A Motion made by Rider and seconded by Kirsh to suspend the Rules of Procedure in order to vote on this item at tonight's meeting. Approved 8-0,absent Buckler A Motion made by Rider and seconded by Kirsh to approve Docket No.PZ-2022-00090 DP/ADLS with condition of final approvals from Engineering Department and that the Landscaping and Signage is worked out with Planning Staff and the Urban Forester.
