Minutes of the Special Meeting of <br />Planning and Zoning, Council, Architectural <br />Review Board and Citizens Advisory Committee <br />Page 12 <br />A: The way we looked at it was to snake the whole parking area two way which right off the bat <br />should help the drop off situation because if we were to create a drop off here, right now the <br />parents come in, drop off and head back out. If you are getting on to 271 through your <br />morning commute to work, you are coming in, dropping your kid off and then actually <br />creating traffic to other people trying to pull in. What should relieve that right away is if this <br />is a drop off and if you are going on 271 you go this way and back to SOM you can go this <br />way or this way, it should help solve a lot of the problems. Once again, that is something that <br />needs to be studied further. This is ari idea. <br />Mayor: We are somewhat co-located with Center School. One of the questions is the Board of Ed. <br />Building, this shows a sort of footprint for the space around it. We never would assume they <br />would lose the yard in the front. There's a fair amount of side yard on the south. There maybe <br />an opportunity to push that driveway closer to that building and then utilize the space south of <br />it for other parking or change the overall site geometry. One of the problems we have here is <br />the way parking around Center School is chopped up because there's parking at the lot in the <br />back, we have our Fire Station, there are different grade issues. If there were ways to make it <br />more common area parking more efficient, that's one thing we want to look at. That's not the <br />primary issue, but we are trying to see what problems we might be able to solve. <br />Q: Would there be any way to possibly expand parking to the west along Wilson Mills at all? Is <br />that all private property? <br />Mayor: Yes. That's the dentist office. <br />Q: Is what we are designing 4,900 square feet? Is that the full structure? <br />A: It currently is at 4,500. <br />Q: If it goes over 5,000 square feet, the Code starts changing and you have to put more fire <br />protection and bigger bathrooms and everything else which exponentially grows the cost? <br />A: 5,000 square feet would increase the occupancy but that wouldn't do anything for fire <br />protection. That's not how that's determined. <br />Fire Chief: I don't think that's going to change what I think is necessary from a fire safety aspect. The <br />one thing that I can tell you that I have been thinking about the whole time is the kitchen <br />situation. I think the idea of having more of a residential kitchen setting to keep it a <br />community family room is a little bit under par for what I think is necessary for safety. I <br />think it should be acommercially-designed kitchen with hoods and suppression system. <br />John M: The difference between 2,500 square feet and 5,000 square feet in Mayfield Village is not <br />negligible. It is going to require the same kind of fire protection. The kitchen is not going to <br />have a hood system and a grill. It's simply slated to be a warming kitchen. It's not a cooking <br />kitchen like we have down the hall. It's where food can be brought in that's already been <br />prepared and you can break it down, warm it up and serve it that way. Also, I like the idea <br />
