<br />meet the Historic District requirements. The design would continue with sidewalks on either <br />side of Delmar to allow pedestrians to continue straight at these locations. The sidewalks would <br />be at grade with existing ramps removed and grass in between the sidewalk and street continuing <br />to the landscape islands. There would also be new granite curbs to match the existing. Three <br />signs were also proposed that would be five feet in height at the dead ends of Trinity Avenue <br />with reflectors on them to indicate a dead end to drivers. There would be a steel plate across the <br />sidewalk over a tunnel cut out from the sidewalk for storm water drainage. Both sides of Delmar <br />would have the same layout. <br /> <br />Questions, Comments, and Discussion: <br /> <br /> <br />-Commission members asked about stormwater drainage and the location of the proposed steel <br />plates over the sidewalks and location of catch basins. Mr. Wilson pointed out that the location <br />of these plates could change slightly, once the survey with elevations is completed, in order to <br />address storm water runoff in the most efficient way possible. <br /> <br />-Commission members also inquired about the proposed reflective signs and expressed concern <br />about the lack of compatibility within the Historic District if they were to be permanently <br />installed. Other options were discussed, including the option of planters with the reflector <br />attached. It was suggested that something more appropriate be used instead of the signs. Mr. <br />Wilson confirmed that they would pursue something more fitting with the District, such as <br />planters. <br /> <br />Mr. Hamilton made a motion to approve the plan as presented, with the condition that the <br />proposed reflective signs could only be in place only for a period of six months after the project <br />was completed with further review of more permanent closure at that point. The motion was <br />seconded by Mr. Chilton and carried unanimously. <br /> <br />5. Other Business <br /> <br />5.a.
