,.- Commissioner Roberts liked staff s suggestions regarding courts and the lotting plans. She would like to see more walkways between the courts, which would enable the kids to get to the parks without forcing their parents to drive more. Commissioner Roberts agreed with staffs comments regarding the porch, and noted that it was difficult to determine where the front door was. She noted that Commissioner Maas would ask the same question. Commissioner Sullivan inquired whether the pedestrian access to the Iron Horse Trail was adequate. Ms. Hardy noted that they were continuing to work with Mr. Dominy to finalize a trail design. She reiterated that Mr. Dominy wished for the church to be very open to the community, and that they preferred to have no fencing at that location. She was confident that they could develop a satisfactory trail design. Regarding the senior housing, Commissioner Roberts complimented the developers on this plan. Commissioner Arkin remarked that he would like to see it closer to the pool and cabana, and Commissioner Sullivan concurred with that opinion. Commissioner Roberts noted that the residents only had to walk across the circle to reach the pool. Commissioner Roberts noted that a private van service must be worked out. ,- Commissioner Arkin recalled that the Housing Commission had addressed the size of the meeting room at senior center, and suggested that it be combined with the cabana for shared use. Pastor Barris noted that the church hoped to provide meeting services as well. Commissioner Roberts did not believe that the two bedroom plans should be included in the affordable units. Commissioner Arkin noted that live-in nursing help could occupy the second bedroom. Commissioner Sullivan advised that a transportation plan should be devised, and that the transportation services could be partially provided by private services. He did not believe that two handicapped-ready units were sufficient. Mark Sweeney expressed appreciation for Jack Dove's help. Dial-A-Ride requested that they have their own van so they would not have to provide all the services; Ponderosa agreed to provide that service. He believed they would have a very good transportation package. He noted that the conversion of a unit from handicapped accessible to handicapped equipped would be at the developer's expense. He noted that they would build those units at market demand, and he expressed surprise at how few had actually been needed. He emphasized that if someone needed one, all they had to do was ask. ".-.
