At the Planning commission meeting the board members said they clidn't want the above ground detention. They would allow Wellington to move on to their next meeting, but would have to get the approval from another meeting. Mr. Zergott read allowed a rough draft of the motion that was made at the June 23, 1998 Plauniug commission meeting. "As we discussed before we will leave the retention open but we would be in favor of underground retention in lieu of the fact that this is an. assistant living facility which will have patients that can wonder and create many hazards". "DUE TO A TECHNICAL ERROR NO FURTHER MINUTES WERE RECORDED THE REMAINDER OF THE MINLITES ARE SUMMARIZED FROM THE ASSISTANT CLERKS NOTES" , Mr. Milloy suggested we are trying to keep Wellington looking as residential in nature as we can. In the front of the building we will use hunter green shingles on the roof. There will be a residents porch on the front of the building that will wrap arou.nd to the side of the building. The driveway will be off of Clague Rd.. The delivery trucks will use this driveway to make their deliveries to the back of the facility. Mr. Liggett asked if there would be any overhead doors or docks on the back of tlie bu.ilding for the deliveries. Mr. Milloy suggested there would be no need for either docks or overhead doors. Mr. Zergott asked a few questions concerning the courtyards landscaping. W. Milloy suggested we will do any landscaping changes this board would like to see done.

I would like you to have the landscape plan done to keep the lights out of my windows and to protect my yard. W. Liggett informed Mr. Vannoy, that it would be a very good gesture for Mr. Bower to pay to have the landscaping done in his yard, but Mr. Vannoy would have to understand once the landscaping is put in place it would not be their responsibility to maintain his yard. Mrs. Paton asked if the residents would have or drive their own cars. Mr. O'Neil answered for the most part the residents will not d.rive, but there could be some car owners. Mr. Zergott inquired as to what the visiting hours would be for Wellington Place. Mr. O'Neil replied we like the residents to have as many visitors as possible therefore we don't set visiting hours. This enables the visitors as well as the residents to accommodate their personal schedules. Councilman McKay asked to review the newly submitted blue prints to see were the cedar fence would be placed. Mr. Zergott asked, W. Milloy to swmnarize what the City forester requested them to do. Mr. Milloy suggested Mr. Wendell who came to the site would like us to put up the board on board cedar fence instead of using mounds to buffer the lights and noise. His opinion was the mounds would kill to many trees. Mr. Tribnor expressed his concerns regarding Alzheimer's people wondering off the property into the neighboring yards. Mr. O'Neil assure Mr. Tribnor they would not allow the residents of Wellington Place to just wonder. Mr. Lynn a concerned neighbor from Mastick Rd.
