I would offer the following comments: SITE PLANS: 1. Landscaping Buffers along Route 28: They have greatly improved the entrance and buffer along Route 28 by reducing pavement (only handicapped parking is in the front now), and are proposing two trees along with plantings to match the nice landscaped area in front of Captain Parkers (see photos). Landscaping of this quality should be located on both sides of the entrance driveway. 2. Parking and Buffers: The rear parking lot is extra wide (77’), resulting in only 5’ side buffers behind the building. Kieran Healy had indicated this was done to allow for employees to double load park on the west side. I have asked him to calculate the required parking for the proposed uses to see if the property is over‐ parked. There are also existing trees within the buffers that should be retained if possible, or replanted every 20’ around the parking areas per Section 301.4.4. ARCHITECTURAL PLANS: I think the architecture looks great and have no comments. Hard copies are in the box outside my office. Please confirm that you will be attending.

I would agree with Kathy's comments. I like the building but as an essentially complete rebuild I think the proper buffers and plantings should be required. I can see maybe a few feet relief but not down to 5 feet on the side buffers - maybe 8 feet with room for all the required plantings or tree retention some of which are not shown.. I'm OK with the 2 handicapped spaces in front (this was allowed at dairy queen) but am concerned that the building is bigger than what the site really fits. Removal of the garage would allow some additional spaces or maybe some could be leased from the museum property next door.
