20 1 Commissioner McKee said emergency vehicles typically have electronic equipment that 2 can override signals. He said he spoke with Commissioner Greene who saw electronic bollards 3 in Europe that went down automatically. He said keys are likely to get lost. 4 Commissioner Greene referred to the idling provision, and staff's desire to see "any and 5 all vehicles" from idling more than one minute. She said one minute is a brief time, and it seems 6 unreasonable to apply this rule to passenger vehicles, but she would like this rule to apply to all 7 freight vehicles, and not just diesel engines. 8 Frank Csapo clarified was Commissioner Greene meaning all commercial freight 9 vehicles included. 10 Commissioner Greene said yes, all commercial freight vehicles, not just diesel, and 11 regardless of weight. 12 Frank Csapo said the Applicant agrees to this change. 13 Commissioner Marcoplos referred to the electronic bollards, and asked if these are 14 compatible with an emergency situation that requires all employees to evacuate the site. 15 Frank Csapo said it is his understanding that this type of equipment can be paired with a 16 building fire alarm system, which would open the bollards in case of an emergency evacuation. 17 Commissioner Price referred to section 4, item g, and the final roadway lay out, which 18 needs to be approved by the Town of Hillsborough and the Fire Marshall. She asked if the 19 BOCC's decision even matters, if the Town has to have final say. 20 Michael Harvey said all projects have to go through the final site plan review process, 21 where staff approves all details. He said this process will involve the Town of Hillsborough and 22 the Fire Marshall. He said these entities will have a seat at the table. 23 Commissioner Price said that it sounds like the County is not involved in this process, as 24 Hillsborough has the final say. 25 Michael Harvey said the County conducts the process, and invites Hillsborough to be a 26 part of the process. 27 Commissioner McKee referred to section 4, item d, and asked if this is the western most 28 parcel of the three parcels. 29 Michael Harvey said yes. 30 Commissioner McKee said he thought the service road already went that far. 31 Michael Harvey said no it does not. He said the service road and right of way terminate 32 at the second parcel. 33 Commissioner McKee clarified that this is the northeastern corner of the back parcel. 34 Michael Harvey said yes. 35 Commissioner McKee referred to the red wording in the section below, and asked if the 36 current service road goes to the property line between the eastern and western parcels, and has 37 to be extended to the western edge of the back parcel, in order to provide access to the parking 38 lot, who will pay for this extension, if not the Developer. 39 Michael Harvey said the Applicant is proposing to access that parking lot internally, not 40 by the extended service road. He showed an aerial photograph to clarify. 41 Commissioner McKee said this now makes sense. 42 Michael Harvey said staff required the condition that the right of way be extended, due to 43 the County's connectivity policy, which was agreed to, but the Applicant did not agree to 44 construct a road for future use of western property owners. 45 Michael Harvey reviewed the modified conditions of the northwestern buffer 46 encroachment being reduced to allow 20 parking spaces instead of 35; an inclusion of electronic 47 bollards to prevent access from Davis Road; and idling restrictions on all freight vehicles of any 48 size. 49 Commissioner McKee said he wanted to insure that the buffer on the eastern edge is still 50 included. 51 Chair Rich said this is in the original site plan.
