Newton-Huckabay: Mr. Chair?
.Rohm: Commissioner Newton-Huckabay.
Newton-Huckabay: I have a question. Although I think that the proposed design
and architecture is very very nice, it's substantially different than the architecture
and look of the commercial development istoneland woodhand more of a ustic
more of the stone -- what s the word . The
look than a -- this type of look and I was wondering if something might be done to
make it look a little more of a cohesive developments thoughll is very veryen ce
a -- to me there is a very stark difference and
Does anyone -- other Commissioners have concern there?
Rohm: I hadn't even noticed.
Newton-Huckabay: And, then, the other question I have is the public street that
stubs to -- that comes out on Ustick to the south, th to Crossfield?ually line up with
the Crossfield road. Does it line up to the entrance
Christy: If my memory serves me correct, it does not line up. The road I believe
you're talking about is further to the west.
Newton-Huckabay: West.
Christy: And that would have required -- Were to I ne ,up w'th thatproWe have
enough to the west for us to get a road m the
done some extensive work with ACRD to get the road location for the entrance
where it's at now.
Newton-Huckabay: I don't like where the road entrance is and you have got
Venable, the entrance into the other one, and that one and, then, you're going to
have another access to the south, but I guess I can't change that.

Christy: There is a condition placed on ACHD with the understanding that in the
future that our access off of Ustick could be a right-in and right-out.
Newton-Huckabay: Uh-huh. I missed that. I just have -- the only concern was
just I think there was substantially different in look and architecture and I would
kind of like to see them alittle -- I wouldn't necessarily recommend the whole
rustic look, but maybe some stone or --
Moe: Just to kind of go with that, if you look at their site compared to the site
you're speaking of right there, I think what you're going to see is that's -- this site
is going to take over the look of that whole area right there. I don't think you're
going to see it. It isn't going to be a noticeable.
Newton-Huckabay: You don't think so?
Moe: I don't think so.
Newton-Huckabay:. Okay.
Moe: I love this development.
Newton-Huckabay: Well, yeah, I love the look.
