Commissioner O'Connor stated his two concerns were around the massing and traffic circulation. He stated he was not amenable to the residential placement on the corner of the site and expressed hope that something could be done to tone down the massing. Commissioner Pace referenced the traffic at the intersection of Stoneridge Mall Road and Stoneridge Mall Road and suggested having the building setback through the integrated plan which could help in reducing massing, assist with traffic circulation and provide additional visibility, especially at that corner. Based on these factors, he was more amenable to the integrated plan. Commissioner O'Connor asked if the intersection of Stoneridge Mall Road and Stoneridge Mall Road would contain a traffic signal. Mr. Tassano stated there was an existing traffic signal and improved site distance would be provided, even with the current traffic signal and stop signs. Commissioner Brown asked about bicycle trails and use for egress in the evening hours. Mr. Tassano explained the congestion points and possible improvements, which will occur one at a time. He stated the traffic study would determine the volume in particular areas and the need for any additional traffic signals. Commissioner Balch suggested evaluating the comments made on Building A and utilizing those that worked. MATTERS FOR COMMISSION'S REVIEW/ACTION/INFORMATION 7.
