Matthew Taylor, Assistant Planner, <br />presented the staff report. He stated that a comment was received and <br />distributed to the Commission this morning. He noted that, although staff <br />remains sensitive to concerns of the neighborhood these concerns have <br />been adequately addressed by the project site design, traffic impact <br />analysis prepared for the project, and by the application and enforcement <br />of existing regulations and standards pertaining to the maintenance of the <br />property. Also, he read into the record two Public Works Conditions to <br />be added: 1) Provide signage requiring motorists to yield to pedestrians <br />making use of the pedestrian pathway across the drive through lane, and <br />stripe a yield line ahead of the crossing point. California MUTCD sign <br />code R1 -5. 2) *Advisory - The Public Works Traffic Division and City of <br />Riverside Police Department monitor traffic patterns and impacts on <br />public roadways. While the report has adequately assessed potential <br />traffic distribution and resulting impacts in the project vicinity, the <br />engineer's assessment of traffic distribution may differ slightly at the time <br />of project implementation. If, after observation in the field, it is determined <br />by either Public Works or the Police Department that traffic departing the <br />site is contributing to traffic related concerns along Audrey Avenue, the <br />Public Works Department reserves the right to restrict left turn outbound <br />traffic at the driveway along Audrey Avenue through installation of <br />regulatory signage at the project driveway. Dan Hinson, HC &D <br />Architects, stated they were in agreement with the recommended <br />conditions. Comments from the audience: Jennifer Ilizaliturri and Nick <br />David spoke in opposition. They expressed their concerns regarding: <br />traffic volume, noise, pedestrian safety, privacy issues, parking and <br />APPROVED Planning Commission Minutes — December 14, 2017 Page 1 of 3 <br />
