©r Coun SkVP Comrllewh <br />Ham ion PointlMaster Plan <br />The following items have been identified as unsatisfactory and should be revised to <br />reflect the following: <br />Parking and Loading <br />1. North Carolina State Building Code requires additional handicap accessible stalls. <br />2. No handicapped parking is provided to be readily accessible to Building 3. <br />3. Loading areas to be designated at sides and rear of buildings. <br />4. Eliminate all parking stalls that backup directly into main access points. <br />Landscaping <br />1. Landscape divider strips to be provided at each parking aisle perpendicular to <br />parking spaces. <br />2. Landscaping required around base of structures to offset long expanses of wall <br />surface. <br />3. Additional and extensive landscaping required at perimeter of property and along <br />street rights-of-way. <br />4. Provide additional open space/tree preservation buffer between parking lot and <br />road rights-of-way. <br />5. Parking area quadrants to be separated by landscaping. <br />Impervious Surface <br />1. 69% impervious surface indicated on plans does not include additional impervious <br />surface which will result in development of outparcels. Maximum impervious <br />surface recommended for the entire project is 50%. Additional development of <br />outparcels could result in impervious surface exceeding 80%. <br />Architectural Considerations <br />1. Add offsets to Building #1 and landscape around perimeter to provide relief from <br />long, uninterrupted expanses of wall. (Move center section of building forward) <br />2. Move loading area to opposite end or side of building to avoid circulation difficulty. <br />3. Building architecture (exterior election) could use enhancement. <br />Site Layout <br />1. Building #3 not allowed in rail station reserve area.
