Also present Peter Grenier, property owner and Paul Tokanel the owner of the proposed restaurant. N. Chamberlain went over the revised plan. One change is to shift the driveways to make parking more efficient. Currently, the entrance and exit are one way in and one way out. There will be 39 parking spaces and will be adding approximately 700 sq ft of pavement. Greenspace will be changing by less than one percent. The budling will stay in the same footprint. The current sheet flow goes to the lake. The proposal is to install a rain garden. N. Chamberlain addressed the dept’s comments with the exception of the easement. There will be no impact in the area of the easement which is for the land across the street. P. Grenier will be taking a closer look at the easement. Chair W. Anderson would like to see more clarification on the rain garden detail to add a note that the top of the pavement will not exceed the berm elevation. He would like to see the drainage calculations. He is looking at the future when the City becomes an MS4 community. It will cost less now to do the work than to modify future MS4 requirements. Sidewalks will be installed and the applicant will work with DPW on the details. The public hearing closed at 2:53 PM. Motion to deny the waiver but approve the site plan application with conditions that revisions are submitted to show location of the sidewalk after coordinating with DPW, stormwater calculations to determine if raingarden is large enough to support the impermeable area on the lot be provided, and plan details on the force main/pump station to include determining if the existing force main has the capacity to support the restaurant’s sewage be provided, made by N. Schwarz, A. Graton seconded. 8. OTHER BUSINESS 9. ADJOURNMENT With no other business before the committee, the meeting adjourned at 2:55 PM Respectfully, K. Graham
