Commissioner Wahl was informed by Mr. Ho that the plan calls for the inclusion of four electric charging stations and parking spaces will be a uniform size if 8-1/2 feet wide by 17 feet long. Commissioner Wahl questioned whether parking spaces would be metered and placed straight or angled. She was advised there were no plans to have parking time limits and a number of options were considered to determine the best option for providing the largest number of parking spaces. Additionally, Mr. Ho advised that a total of five ADA parking spaces were included in the plan and asphalt and concrete paving would be used. Commissioner Hottle liked the design and presentation. He felt the number of electric parking stations seemed to be too low for the total number of parking spaces being provided and suggested consideration be given to putting conduit in place so more can be added at a later date. Commissioner Hottle also discussed the landscaping and storm water plan and wanted to be sure there would be sufficient lighting in all pathway areas. Staff provided information about discussions held with adjacent property owners and tenants, plantings, and lighting plans. Commissioner Fields was advised that there were plans for access from the parking area to First and Main Streets that would be ADA compliant with crosswalk entrances. Additional information was provided about fencing options, parking space sizes at the Firehouse Arts Center. Commissioner Fields felt more electric charging stations and ADA spaces should be considered and questions whether seating spaces would encourage loitering. She was informed that seating would be in the plaza area. Commissioner Brown asked about plans for a gate being included in the wood fencing. She was advised that a wooden fence already in place by McKay's needs to be matched, also property owners and tenants are being asked to relocate trash dumpsters to their own property. Commissioner Hottle was advised that no consideration has been given to the installation of security cameras and the Police Chief has not indicated there is a concern. Commissioner Hottle again suggested planning ahead and including conduit in case a need arises in the future. Vice Chairperson Deckert questioned whether any concerns had been raised by businesses in the area. He was advised that all concerns have been answered and they are in agreement with the proposed plan. Vice Chairperson Deckert opened the meeting for public comment.
