Mr. Jim Harpool, representing Wickliff and Company, reviewed the design changes made to the original plan that was submitted. He advised that Doubletree Inn is 25% owner of the proposed hotel and tha~ Wickliff and Company owns ?5%. He stated the hotel is a club type hotel, with rooms comparable to Hyatt and Sheraton, but that this facility will not have a convention center or public restaurant. He stated that as part of the room rate, guests will receive a complimentary breakfast which will be the only meal served, and that there will be a large lounge area for cocktails. He stated that this type of facility will have less impact on traffic, water, and sewer. He advised that the six story building is less height (62 ft.) that other six story buildings because of the shallow floor space. He presented renderings of the design of the project, as well as landscape plans. He reviewed vehicle access, pedestrian access, and food service deliveries. Mr. Harpool reviewed traffic studies, and stated the critical concern is the intersection of Dublin Canyon Road and Foothill Road. He stated that Doubletree and Wickliff have agreed with regard to mitigation measures at this location and will pay their fair share for any improvements necessary. He added that a hotel such as the one proposed will produce less traffic than an office build- ing. Mr. Harpool stated that with regard to sewer use, the proposed facility will use water conservation fixtures to keep the usage as low as possible. Mr. Walker advised that the City's figures have some water saving devices included, and that he would have to look closer to determine accurate figures. 8. 6/12/84
