16 <br /> <br />The Master Plan specifically references “commercial buildings” with the intent to conserve <br />land and maximize outdoor seating. The commercial buildings for the development are located <br />near the intersection of CSAH 49 and CR J. The senior living building is a residential <br />independent living and care facility and would not be subject to this requirement. <br /> <br />• It is not the intent of this plan to specify housing unit styles. However, garage units must <br />not access directly onto the main access drive or the main public streets through the <br />development. <br /> <br />The cottage homes garages access onto a 26 foot wide private drive not the main public street. <br /> <br />• The Hodgson/Co Rd J intersection is a gateway and appropriate elements are to be <br />included in the development of the corners of this intersection. <br /> <br />Future development of the commercial corner will require these gateway elements. <br /> <br />• The interface between new residential and commercial uses should be flexible. For <br />example, new development in central areas can be multi-family, commercial, or mixed use. <br />This would be consistent with the flexible land use lines noted above. Maintaining safety <br />and quality of life are important considerations. <br /> <br />The site design transitions from single story cottage homes on the west and north to the 2-story <br />skilled care wing with the 3- and 4-story assisted-living and independent living wings closest to <br />Hodgson Road. Intensity of development transitions from low near the existing single family <br />neighborhood to high near the intersection. The senior living complex is also an employment <br />center. <br /> <br />• Lighting is to be appropriately scaled to a pedestrian friendly development. Lighting <br />should be directed downward and screened to reduce light pollution, glare, and impacts on <br />adjacent residential areas. <br /> <br />Wall mounted down lit lighting is proposed on the exterior of the senior housing complex. <br />Street lights ranging from 12 to 28 25 foot in height with down lit shields will be utilized in the <br />parking lot and near the main entrance and loading area. Foot candles do not exceed 1.0 fc <br />onto right-of-way as required by City performance standards. <br /> <br />Two Five 15 25 foot pole street lights with down lit shields are proposed along the private road <br />and parking areas in the cottage home neighborhood. The photometric plan indicates zero (0) <br />foot candle levels protruding onto adjacent residential properties as required. <br /> <br />The applicant shall work with the local electric company to design a street lighting plan for the <br />public road. <br /> <br />• Security or service lighting should be limited in coverage area and designed to reduce <br />glare. <br /> <br />Wall mounted down lit lighting is proposed on the exterior of the senior housing complex and <br />clubhouse.
