The minutes from this meeting are attached.
Updated Narrative and Plan Revisions
The applicant has updated their original detailed narrative and provided plans showing some minor revisions to those first presented to the Board (See Attachments).
One of the important changes involves using a different type base material for a revised paving system. This material, expanded slate lightweight aggregate, has different characteristics which the applicant believes will better serve the health of the existing trees while reducing the imperviousness of the original design.
Public Sidewalk Widening - additional note
As noted in the attached email, the Weaver Street Market Management (Ruffin Slater) would like to explore partnering with the Town to share some costs for the sidewalk widening. For this reason, the sidewalk widening plan is for representational purposes only. It is not the Town’s policy to participate in private development projects even when the improvement is within a public right-of-way.
FISCAL & STAFF IMPACT: No known fiscal impacts are associated with consideration of this request beyond collection of the review fee and staff time to prepare the item and review the permit modification.
RECOMMENDATION:r Staff recommends that the Board review the information provided, hold the public hearing, and consider approving the resolution allowing for the aforementioned modifications to the Carr Mill Conditional Use Permit.
