Design updates: pocket parks, generator screening and public art factored into approval
Summary
Architect and staff described changes to open spaces — a relocated generator enclosure, a water feature in the pocket park, revised plaza access and three potential public‑art sites — and commissioners required further coordination on materials, screening and photometrics during permitting.
During the presentation the applicant showed revisions to the open‑space plan, including a relocated and enclosed generator, a redesigned plaza with increased hardscape and seating, and three potential public art locations. The applicant said the generator enclosure will not count toward open‑space square footage and that a water feature was included partly to mitigate sound from weekly generator tests.
Staff asked the applicant to continue work with engineering and transportation staff on streetscape and stormwater details and to coordinate public art with the Dublin Arts Council. Commissioners pressed for higher‑quality materials at the gateway corner, tighter photometric documentation and durable materials for screening walls; staff recommended conditions to confirm materials and reduce the screen‑wall height where code or visibility triangles require modifications.
