O The Board was advised that the area to the south of the building where the dumpster was located had been redesigned. A new sidewalk was proposed leading to the dumpster area which would be screened by a new hedge, the old asphalt would be removed and the area sodded, two additional Live Oaks were proposed, and a new hedge would be planted along the property line of Constitution Park and along Dover Road. Motion to approve the proposed landscaping and waivers with the following recommendations and conditions: Page 2 Recommendations: 1. Add gates to the south side of the dumpster enclosure. 2. Pressure clean the building and roof. 3. Allow the hedge to grow to 5' minimum on south and west sides to buffer the dumpster area. Conditions of Approval: 1.

Nature 5 foot perimeter landscaping required, 2 feet proposed. Justification The Stop and Shop building, asphalt paved delivery drive, and concrete service equipment pads currently exist within the proposed 5-foot landscape perimeter. These improvements cannot be removed. 2. Nature 5 foot perimeter landscaping required, 5 foot to 18 inches proposed. • Justification Parking, backup drive area, and concrete equipment pads currently exist within the proposed 5-foot perimeter landscaping and cannot be removed without losing parking 'X' and drive area. Nature A 25-foot entry drive is required, 36 feet wide proposed. Justification Because of the tight configuration of the site the wider drive is required to access the limited number of parking spaces. 4. Nature 10-foot perimeter landscaping required, none proposed. Justification Because of the tight configuration of the site, the existing parking spaces, backup areas and drive, and curbing, the site is developed to the property line, leaving no possible areas for planting. The proposed required hedging and trees would be installed adjacent to the property boundary within the road right-of-way as currently exists. 5.

Justification Because of the tight configuration of the site and limited number of parking spaces, one parking space occurs within the proposed 10-foot landscape perimeter. 6. Nature 25-foot access drive is required, 45-foot drive is proposed. Justification Because of the tightness of the site, proximity of the access drive to the inner section of Dover Road and Seabrook Road, and the existence of a parking space adjacent and parallel to • the property line, the existing drive is 45 feet wide. This width is consistent with the width of the parking and backup area and accommodates the entrance and existing of both delivery and customer vehicles more safely than if the drive were limited to the eastern 25 feet closest to Seabrook Road. 7. Nature 4-foot landscape strip required in front of retail buildings, none proposed.

Mr. Ostrout commented that Rinker was talking about phasing the landscape improvements. Ms. -McCabe reported that the Building Official had been working with Mr. Porter of Rinker and she was not aware of the outcome, but commented that there had been a difference of opinion regarding the phasing. Ms . McCabe indicated that Rinker was requesting three phases, with Phase 3 beginning in April of 1998; and that the matter would be turned over • to Code Enforcement if Rinker did not comply.

Howard Ostrout, Landscape Architect, explained that this application had originally been submitted approximately eight months ago just prior to beginning of construction on Constitution Park. The plan was withdrawn until the Village had completed improvements which affected this property, one of which was the sidewalk along Seabrook Road and revision of the 40-foot entry drive to the code- required width of 24 feet. Also, along the side, there would be a future Village project of a sidewalk to go to the park and at that time the entry on that side would be narrowed. Mr . Ostrout described the proposed improvements for the property, and explained that the building was built many years ago and did not meet current setbacks, and also commented that the rear of the building was within what should be the rear landscape buffer. Improvements were proposed for all areas which were possible for installation. Parking was very tight in the front parking lot, however, enough space had been gained for planters. Existing trees would remain, two additional Live Oaks were proposed, as well as a new sidewalk going to the south and to the west to connect with the dumpster area. In one section, old asphalt would be removed and • • Community Appearance Board Meeting Minutes October 9, 1996 Page 14 the area sodded. New hedges would be added to the north side along the dumpster, along the property line of Constitution Park, along the side, and along the front sidewalk. The north side hedge would be extended. Chair Cook requested that Mr. Ostrout pass on to the owner a recommendation to pressure clean the building. Boardmember Molly McCormick left at this point in the meeting, 11 A.M. Discussion ensued regarding various ideas, which resulted in the following conditions and suggestions as listed in the motion. Boardmember Parker made a motion to approve the landscape plan and landscape waivers for Stop and Shop store with' the following recommendations: 1 . Add gates to the south side of the dumpster enclosure. 2. Pressure clean building and roof. 3. Allow hedge to grow to 5' minimum on south and west sides to buffer the dumpster area. The motion also included the following conditions of approval : 1 . Add one East Palatka or Dahoon Holly on north end of parking lot, 10 to 12 foot in height. 2 . Expand the hedge from the north property line to the front corner of the building to screen the side of the building, leaving a 2-foot opening on the north side., 3. Add three Cabbage Palms on the south side of the building, with staggered heights of 14 to 18 feet. Community Appearance Board Meeting Minutes October 9, 1996 Page 15 Vice Chair Strahan seconded the motion. The vote on the motion was: Paul Coben - for Leslie Cook - for Steve Parker - for Vic Strahan - for The motion was therefore passed and adopted. Mr. Ostrout commented that the improvements should begin within 30 days after approval by the Village Council as required by code, and that the owner had been waiting for approval to find out what he needed to do. Mr. Ostrout • explained that the doctor he had dealt with on the Inlet Professional Building had expressed his intent to move forward quickly with their improvements . • 5 .
