Subject: Adelaide preliminary comments
1. The plan notes that no historical features have been located on the site. It is Historic Preservation Committee
policy to obtain a photographic record of all buildings to be demolished prior to demolition. It is recommended
that the applicant provide labeled photographs of each building that is to be demolished for the development.
2. The color conceptual plan shows trees along the EC frontage. Are these intended to be new trees, existing trees, or
a combination of new and existing? ")\-1.---Y--(-1,44 -1 3( ,, . S '-',
3. With the layout shown,there appears to be no planting area available along the Rt. 250 Entrance Corridor. The
application plan shows a potential stormwater facility extending nearly the full frontage of the corridor. A path
and underground utilities(fiber optic and copper telecommunication) are located between the facility and the
street, and a sewer line is shown on the Adelaide side of the facility. (A 12"water line is also located along the
frontage, closer to the road.) Where will the EC frontage landscaping be located?Clarify how the frontage
landscaping requirements will be met while avoiding utility conflicts.
4. There is a big size discrepancy between the EC-fronting stormwater Lir ies shown on the ARB concept plan and
those shown on the rezoning application plan.
5. The ARB will require that stormwater facilities visible from the EC los like fully integrated landscape elements.
Engineered site features unrelated to the surroundings will not meet t'e EC guidelines.
6. It is recommended that a creative, holistic approach to the treatmen of the EC frontage be devised,to fully
integrate stormwater, landscape, streetscape and path requireme , resulting in a treatment that me is the EC
Guidelines and maintains an appearance that is consistent wit e scenic byway. ``
