<br /> <br />-How does Hendrix and Hunter relate to Universal Sewing Supply? Mr. Towner stated that <br />the owner has a strong personal interest in art and views Hendrix and Hunter as an art- <br />related business worth supporting. He further stated that Hendrix and Hunter is essentially <br />renting space from a landlord. <br /> <br />-Explain the business in its totality. Mr. Towner navigated the Universal Sewing Supply <br />facility on an aerial map on a slide for the Commission to understand what uses of Hendrix <br />and Hunter will occupy which existing building space. <br /> <br />-If this business expands, where would you go in the building? Mr. Towner stated that there <br />is plenty of space if expansion is necessary and that the existing uses can be reorganized <br />within the building to increase efficiency. <br /> <br />-Some Commission members voiced concerns regarding security upon personally seeing the <br />subject site as part of individual research prior to this meeting. The building across East <br />Park Industrial Drive has quite extensive fencing and gate systems, but the subject site <br />appears freely open. Mr. Towner stated that the company across East Park Industrial Drive <br />has outdoor storage of tools and materials that require such extensive security measures. <br />The proposed project is entirely within the interior of the existing subject buildings. <br /> <br />-The time lag of the security cameras in relation to outdoor security measures, and possibility <br />of internal theft by employees, still concerned some Commission members. Mr. Towner <br />stated that there will be access only to Hendrix and Hunter and not Universal Sewing <br />Supply. <br /> <br />-Will lead be used in any part of the manufacturing process at this location? Mr. Towner <br />stated that lead will not be used. Stainless steel and wood will be the primary materials for <br />production. <br /> <br />-How will defective products be disposed? Mr. Towner stated that the ATF tracks disposed <br /> <br /> <br />The Commission asked for advisement on requesting a landscape buffer from the applicant. <br />Ms. Riganti stated that the request for a landscape buffer can be submitted and that staff also <br />views the landscaping as an issue of safety and security as some foliage may aid in hiding <br />unauthorized personnel from being on the premises. Ms. Riganti further stated that the Plan <br />Commission can see the proposed landscaping prior to making a decision as either enacting <br />it as a condition or either postponing the decision. <br /> <br />Ms. Moran asked the public in attendance to identify if they lived within the immediate <br />vicinity of the proposed project. (No one answered). Ms. Moran stated that she drove the <br />subject area the Saturday prior to this meeting and saw only one sign posted along East Park <br />Industrial Drive. She also noted that while the public notification outreach does not seem <br /> <br /> <br />Staff explained to Ms. Moran that three individual signs had been posted on East Park <br />Industrial Drive, Maple Avenue, and Sutter Avenue. A week prior to this meeting the <br />notification signs were checked by staff and the two signs missing along Maple Avenue and <br />Sutter Avenue were replaced. Staff also stated that a map defining the properties within the <br />200-foot notification radius of the subject property can be shown to the Commission to <br />confirm where notification letters have been sent.
