John Bergeson asked if this was on the paved portion of 74th Street, yes it is. Fred Chase raised an issue. That the drainage ditch lacks screening for the future development next door. The architect said Emtech decided to wait until grading from other developments is in and then they can add spruce trees. John Miller added that they neglected to look at the mechanical "stuff ", including heating, ventilation and air conditioning. The architect said that part is not final as yet, but would be screened. John Miller added that driveway on the east appears to be dangerous and may have to be moved. 4 1 1 1
