WHAT WE EXPECT AS CONDITIONS FOR APPROVAL 1. UNDERGROUND PETROLEUM TANK REMOVAL: Owner to determine location of underground tank(s),dig them up and conduct an EPA approved site assessment including soil sampling and report(s)to Dept.of Health and to the Commission. 2. ZONING DEFINITION LIMITATION: No vehicle inducing establishments to be allowed with the MCX zoning change.This would eliminate any drive throughs,convenience stores,gas stations and other like entities. 3. TRAFFIC CONTROL: Applicant to place road barriers in the parking lot to dissuade auto drivers from cutting through the parking to lot to avoid the intersection. Example barriers are like the speed bumps like those found in the United States Post Office parking lot near the airport. Applicant to use existing driveway for Manono Street right only exit in concert with the Department of Public Works'written recommendation to the Planning Department. 4. LIMITED HOURS: Limit the hours of operation to 6am to 10pm. This would negate bars/lounges and 24hr entities. 5. LEAD DUST MITIGATION: Dust barrier enclosures to be erected prior to demolition of existing structures and debris clearance and construction to mitigate exposure to residential properties adjacent to and near the property of lead dust and dust in general. Our alternative is to file a complaint with the EPA which could delay demolition and construction possibly for months. 6. MITIGATION FUND: Because this development will draw a number of cars and people to it,the Landowner should be required to create a Mitigation Fund of twenty thousand dollars annually. Fund would pay for,among other things,cleaning and preventative measures,rubbish collection/removal,and installation of window awnings due to excessive vehicle headlights shining into our bedroom. Among the rubbish anticipated to be deposited along the property includes syringes,human waste and other garbage too numerous to itemize. Medical waste requires special handling and disposal.My husband and I should not be held responsible to clean up rubbish generated by and coming from Manono Corner,LLC.
