We had a a site planning workshop with architect Randall Imai as part of our meeting on July 16. This was a conceptual exercise to help us begin to understand the density in having 24 units on 3 buildable acres. We came to a few agreements; we wanted more open space in front of the houses; we wanted to feel connected to the Town; there should be a mix of configurations - ranging from a stand alone house to duplexes, Town Houses and perhaps a 2 floor 6-unit dwelling that would have an elevator. This multi-family unit might be adjacent to the Common House. The parking might be in clusters around the site, with pathways connecting the houses to the parking and Common House. We understood that this was 'site planning lite' - to do this properly would be a weekend workshop. We wanted to do this initial planning to have some concepts to share with the community at our big public meeting on August 20.Randall is going to make some sketches to incorporate our ideas; we'll discuss at the next meeting on Friday July 31.
There were 3 new people at the meeting; they attended the 45 minute pre-meeting
to get a little introduction to the group.
