WOOD:When the time is appropriate. <br />ALAMEDA:Now is the time. Go ahead. <br />WOOD:I was just worried about Condition No. 8. The property was <br />bulldozed by a D-9 30 years ago and ripped; and I haven€t seen any problem with any <br />drainage issues. And I was just worried about getting a little top heavy on the expense of <br />doing this project, especially on the basis that it€s a temporary permit. Now we have the <br />expense of paving the road, and I know the Fire Department is going to ask me to do <br />some special things. And Environmental Management I€m not too concerned about. But <br />I€m worried that the expense of doing a drainage survey could be expensive. I€ve <br />encountered like on my project on Orchidland Drive, I mean, I think that cost me like <br />$14,000 just to do the study. <br />ALAMEDA:Okay. I€d like to ask our Director if he has any comments or <br />responseforMr.Woodregardingthatcondition. <br />YUEN:WecouldamendittosayifrequiredbytheDepartmentofPublic <br />Works.‚ I€m not sure how they would look at this building. We try to treat these the <br />same as if you were getting zoning for a light industrial; and I think they would require <br />this for a light industrial, if he were developing a vacant light industrial site. <br />WOOD:That satisfies my position. You know, if Public Works wants that <br />then -. If Public Works would require that then I recognize that as a necessity. I just was <br />concerned as a condition even if it wasn€t necessary the way it€s worded. <br />ALAMEDA:Okay. Mr. Wood, do you have any other comments or questions <br />pertaining to the Department€s recommendations? <br />WOOD:Not at this time, no. Thank you. <br />ALAMEDA:Fellow Commissioners, do you have any questions for the <br />applicant? <br />SIRACUSA:I have. <br />ALAMEDA:Okay, Commissioner Siracusa. <br />SIRACUSA:This is back to the question I asked of Jeff originally about your <br />fence lines and if there€s a setback from the property line on the highway side. <br />WOOD:I appreciate that question and the reason the fence is put where it is <br />is because I€m not sure which is the better choice. It€s actually put so that a landscaped <br />buffer could go on either side of it. And I€m not sure whether cosmetics are better to <br />5EXHIBIT C <br /> <br />
