Planning Department Comments: 1.5 A minimum 2 -park bicycle rack will be provided near the main building entrance. 1.7 An access gate is being proposed at the Northwest corner of the site off of Overland for Idaho Power to access their 75' easement along the west property line. See sheet a1.11. 1.8 The trash enclosure is located at the Northwest corner of the site on the Landscape Plan as well as sheet al. 11. Public Works Department Comments: 2.1 We are currently in discussions with Public Works on the best option for connecting to the Black Cat Trunk for sewer service. Fire Department Comments: 3.3 An approved turnaround was discussed with Joe Silva of the Meridian Fire Department and has been incorporated into the site plan at the west parking lot. The turnaround encroaches into the required landscape buffer to the west so we are proposing the use of a grass cellular concrete product in that area. It is our understanding from staff that this has been an approved method for this type of application in the past. Police Department Comments: 4.1 The security issues for the courtyard have been discussed with Lt. John Overton of the Meridian Police Dept. and surveillance cameras will be installed in this area per his recommendation. Please let me know if you have any questions.
