Mr. Paulik reviewed the design details and reviewed the steep grade and the drainage pattern. They are proposing to move the driveway and have followed the city code. He also noted that it is important to keep the 2 lots lined up for traffic flow. He also noted that there is no buffer between the paved parking and the sidewalk that will be addressed. The will also flatten the grading from 7% to 2 or 3%. He noted the current berm and discussion was held regarding connecting the 2 parking lots. The grade will allow for that and also address the ADA access. He also noted the island and stated it is good to have landscaping on the island. This will also provide a better area for the motorcycle testing. Quandt expressed concern on the size of the island and questioned the drainage and also noted that it would provide more space for the motorcycle testing area. Mr. Paulik stated they have to have the 2% slope and they have addressed the city code. Quandt questioned the width of the driveway. Discussion was held to decrease the size of the island and could this provide more parking. Quant questioned if there could be damage when they are removing snow Bredthauer expressed concern on the cost of the landscaping on the island and would that take more mowing and maintenance. She asked if the lot was going to be all concrete. She also expressed concern on the drainage. Discussion on the maintenance concrete is 20 years asphalt is 10 years. Concrete is better for the long term. They will lose 9 stalls in the lot and that is not because of the island. Mr. Paulik reviewed the drainage and it will be connected to the same storm sewer they currently have. He noted the location of the cub drains and the slope. Lancaster stated she has great faith in his work product and will support his recommendations. She expressed concern on the time of year and the completion date. She stated she like the green space and feel the cost of maintenance can be managed. Mr. Paulik stated that with using the two phases that should help and they will relocate some ADA stalls to allow access. He noted that it will be about 350 yards of concrete. 6
