RE: Application 20170 – Proposed Delta Gamma Parking Lot & remodeling of existing building
We live on the northwest corner of S 5th and Garfield, across the street from the Delta Gamma
remodel.
Generally, the project appears to be well thought through. We have only one comment/suggestion
and that concerns the lighting plan for the parking lot. We agree that having adequate lighting in a
parking lot is critical for safety and for peace of mind. The current plan appears to result in
unnecessary lighting of the open space at the east end, andless than ideal lighting for the parking spaces in the center of the lot and for the sidewalkalong the north side of the parking lot.
Please consider alternatives that would reduce the amount of unnecessary lighting, while providing
adequate or even better lighting to the center of the lot. One possibility would be to replace the
two lights at the east end with one light at the east end, centrally located and ‘pointing’ west. Or
there may be other options with different types of lights.
