• • <br />Director Frame responded to Commissioner Adams' concerns advising that about 40- <br />50 feet of the grassy area will be removed and the existing oak tree will not be affected <br />except possibly its drip line. Also he responded that if the building is located on the 17th <br />Avenue side of the employee parking lot we would lose more parking. Staff has struggled <br />with the location of the building and it was determined that the location depicted in the site <br />plan was found to be the best. <br />Concerning Commissioner Ginn's concerns about removal of the macadam, Director <br />Frame assured her that if it is not found to be necessary, it would not be removed where the <br />building will be sited. <br />Commissioner Adams commented that although it has to be done, it is going to look <br />like a building on a parking lot which would not be attractive. <br />Vice Chairman Tippin felt that staff had struggled with this, it would never be <br />beautiful, and the Board ought to approve staff's choice for site location. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Vice Chairman Tippin, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Macht, to approve the site <br />location. <br />Commissioner Ginn reiterated her desire to leave the macadam under the building <br />because of the additional cost and moisture concerns, but Commissioners Tippin and Macht <br />were not concerned about that aspect of this issue. <br />THE CHAIRMA\ CALLED THE QUESTION and the motion <br />carried 4-1 (Commissioner Adams opposed). <br />April 23, 2002 <br />65 <br />a <br />b <br />
