Verify dimensions from the face of curbing along University Drive and the pillars on which the security gates will be attached. Any change in use of the vacant building being used for storage could affect the parking requirements,and must be considered by the Planning Division before a change in use can become legally effective.

E!R~ M~Rltl~~: T~elocation of the security lights in the driving aisles in the satellite parking lot may interfere with fire protection and emergency equipment egress into that area. Relocation of those standards is not being required, but the applicant/owner of the property should be aware that response time to any emergency in that parking lot could be adversely affected because of those standards. Ifa decision is reached to relocate those standards, a 20 foot driving aisle should be maintained to provide adequate access for emergency vehic.les. The Fire Lanes.should be designated by using double line yellow stripes with black lettering. Begin the striping at the entrances and continue along the back of parking stalls. Fire Lane striping should be completed as soon as possible so emergency access can be guaranteed to the residents of the tower if needed. Mark tlle area between the Hampton Inn and this faci Ii t.y as a Fire Lane, aJrld leave an area for access to the sprinkler equipment, if parking is allowed in that area. Put numbers on the security gates for access reference. g~gl~~~B!Ng: Submittal and approval of a Drainage Plan is required for the remote area and the area of property located near the southwestern corner of the property near Meadowland Street. ~~~ R~~R~I~N!~X!Y~: Concerns identified were verification of the number of parking spaces and landscaping points, and were covered as requirements under comments made by the Planning division. ~~~: No problems identified.

The Commission' concluded that 379 parking.spaces.neededto be available for the dorm residents. This ratio equa.1s 1.18:1 parking space per dorm room (which is a higher ratio that the 1.00: '1 parking spac:e per hotel room requirement). Due to various factors, the scope of the project has changed somewhat, "qnd there are now 200 rooms set aside for dorm residents (during the fall and spring semesters) and 115 hotel rooms and suites, fora total of 315 units. The reason that there are oIlly 315 rooms/suites is that all of the unfinished space was completed as suites instead of the higher density individual dorJtl rooms that were utilized in calculating the total maximum number of rooms of 363. During .thesummer months, most of t'he 200 dorm rooms will used as regular hotel rooms · Because of the 121 fewer number of form rooms (200 as compared to 32~fl) and total rooms (315 as compared to 363), the existing parking.. spaces are more sUfficient. now . that they . were last year ...when .t'he,Commission reviewed the matter based o~ .the Page 2 of 2 May 24, 199.0 lvIs It Jane Kee Re: University Tower projections .. of 321d.dormroomsan.d42hotel rooms.
