Questions on the split access corridor for parcels "A and "B" were raised by the Committee and compared with an earlier map submitted by the applicant, specifically as to how the bridge to Bainter Avenue affected existing trees. The Committee asked Mr. Wright what the concerns of the neighbors in the area were regarding access onto Bainter by bridge. He indicated that the people living in the area were concerned with both traffic and the aesthetic impact of any proposed bridge on the existing setting. The Committee adjourned the meeting to visit the site and review the proposed access off of Austin Way and the proposed location of the bridge that could access onto Bainter Avenue. At the site it was determined that some of the existing trees were not correctly plotted on the map. The meeting was reconvened at the Crisp Conference Room. Revisions to the Staff Report and its conditions were discussed. The Committee discussed granting conceptual approval for the proposed subdivision and approving a revised map and Staff Report at the next meeting.
