She felt the hedges would hide someone who might be lying <br />in wait for an employee coming out of the Courthouse alone and <br />entering the parking garage during the dark winter months. <br />Commissioner Eggert wanted to revisit this in 6 months after <br />the sidewalk is put in to consider the safety aspects. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Macht, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Tippin, the Board unanimously approved <br />staff's recommendation of Alternative #1 (Exhibit B) <br />with the Board revisiting the matter in 6 months <br />after the sidewalk is put in. <br />40 <br />JANUARY 9, 1996 <br />
