Public Works DecartmentlEnaineerina Division comments: 1) The official address for the development is 99 Eglin Parkway NE # 49. 2) It will be the responsibility of the owner to empty the trash receptacles for the Park into the existing City dumpsters. 3) All facilities must meet the latest Florida Accessibility Code. CDS Decartment comments: 1) Please submit a site plan for the entire shopping center so that parking spaces can be verified. 2) Because the park will be utilized by residents from adjoining neighborhoods, pedestrian accessfrom points outside the shopping center needs to be addressed. This might include crosswalks on Hughes Street to the shopping center entrances, construction of a sidewalk along the south side of Hughes Street, enhanced pedestrian access from Eglin Parkway at the entrances to the shopping center, etc. Please address this issue on a site plan showing the entire shopping center in relation to adjoining street. 3. As was brought up by some CRA Board members when they reviewed the conceptual plans, safety is a major concern. The fact that the park is located between drive aisles for back- up parking is the primary issue. Please address these safety concerns possibly in the following ways: a. The drive aisle between the parking spaces and the park' s curbing is 16 or 17 feet in width. Consider striping at the 12' required drive aisle width to give the perception of a smaller lane for vehicular access and using stamped asphalt or pavers for the 4- 5' " pedestrian walk." b. Consider installation of an open style fence 3- 4' in height along the entire perimeter of the park, with gates at all pedestrian entrances. c. Where the pedestrian entrances are located, consider installing intersection humps" raised to the level of the curbing. 4. Although there are handicapped spaces located throughout the shopping center parking lot, there are none shown near the park. Please add one or two spaces, perhaps across from the car " drop- off' area using the raised intersection hump.
