Nearby resident expresses concern about parking proximity to her lot
Summary
Rachel Dorfman, a resident at 71 Sarah's Way, told the committee she supports the station on the site but expressed concerns after seeing recent schematics about how close the parking lot and structure appear to be to her property and the screening along Sarah's Way.
A nearby resident, Rachel Dorfman of 71 Sarah's Way, spoke during the meeting's public comment opportunity to correct an earlier remark attributed to her and to raise concerns after reviewing the new schematics. "We fully support the the fire station, being built on this particular location," she said, but added she had not seen the placement designs when she last spoke and now worries about how close the parking lot and building may come to her property and the adequacy of screening along Sarah's Way.
Committee members acknowledged her remarks and asked the architects to refine the CAD overlay and the landscaping plan so the perceived proximity and screening can be addressed before design finalization. The architects noted that more accurate tree depictions and a site visit will make the relationship between the station and nearby houses clearer.
