Grist Mill Parking:
1. Consider eliminating the curbing associated with the Grist Mill Parking. I’m not sure it’s
needed unless there is some reason I am missing.
2. Consider reducing width of access to Grist Mill to 22’. This will still give adequate room
to maneuver in and out of the parking spaces (total width of 42’) and cut down on
pavement.
3. Please add a minimum of two streetscape trees on either side of the entrance to
supplement existing trees. Design Review may also have comments on landscaping this
parking area.
4. Consider having the sidewalk parallel to Route 28 on Town property to the driveway,
rather than going into the property to the parking.
5. Specify the width and material for the “rebuilt” portion of the walk from the parking to
the Grist Mill.
6. Please confirm that you will be removing the existing gravel parking area on the Town
owned lot also and loaming and seeding.
Memory Care:
1. Memory Care staff parking spaces are only 18’ on the east side. Consider having a 20’
space to avoid cars overhanging into the sidewalk area and impacting pedestrian
movement, or make sidewalk 6’.
2. For consistency, all streetscape sidewalk should be concrete with vertical granite curbing.
There is a small section that is listed as bituminous walk with cape cod berm (on Town
Brook near Route 28 intersection).
