Mrs. Morgan said staff sent out some comments. We are still waiting on revisions. There is nothing major. The parking stalls were not up to standards, but they believe they can make that change. Staff originally was asking for a sidewalk along that interior drive isle, but due to topography they are not going to be able to make it work. So staff is going to waive that comment. There are some other minor landscaping comments they are still working on. Fire signed off on it. This will be going to the March 21st Planning Commission as a public hearing. I make a motion that we move this out of Planning Council with the condition that they address comments from staff’s memos. Mrs. Vacek seconded the motion. The motion carried unanimously.
