was a need for a trail corridor across this development.. Staff noted the

center across Lancaster Lane,

involved with this project at Lancaster and Pilgrim Lanes, and presented
architectural renderings of the proposal as it related to the shopping center.
Mr. Dahlgren noted that the trail would be better suited on t:,e east side
rather than the west due to vandalism and encroachment onto neighboring
residents' property. He addrEssed the office complex site plan and noted
it was different from that originally proposed on the zoning generax plan, and
indicated the reasoning behind: the 25' variance was due to keeping tip., parking
in front of the building as opposed to the rear. He then reviewed the
site plan for the bank at the south end noting it would have a metal roof.
Mr. Dahlgren noted the proposed landscape plan included the north area
between Quaker Lane and Lancaster Lane,

stating the total yard deficiency was 3 feet.

reasoning behind the metal roof, and the potential problem of cars stacking.

ultimately 4 driving lanes as proposed.

shining into his windows

length of time for banking transactions and landscape guarantee.
