Meeting Park Detailed Plan - Revision to sidewalk along east side of Waddell Street Motion to approve an amendment to the detailed plan for Meeting Park that would: 1. Eliminate the new 5’ beauty strip between the curb and the 4’ sidewalk along lots 1, 8 - 12 along the eastern side of Waddell Street; 2. Require a 4 ft. concrete sidewalk - without a landscaped ‘beauty strip’ - along Waddell Street between Waterman Street and Meeting Street. (The existing sidewalk will not be allowed to remain.) 3. JW Homes would switch the types of trees in this area from ‘Zelkova’ to one of the following and plant the trees in closer proximity to the house (as indicated in the attached letter and plans dated June 2, 2015 from Kelly Davis of Gaskins Engineering): a. Trident Maple b. Eastern Redbud c. Crape Myrtle (not on Marietta list) d. European Hornbeam (not on Marietta list) 4. The required street trees along Waddell Street would be relocated to behind the sidewalk and maintained by the Meeting Park Homeowner’s Association. 5. JW Homes would agree to increase the width of the grass strip along Waterman Street from 3 ft. to 4 ft. in order to accommodate the proposed trees. All other conditions approved with previous detailed plans shall remain in effect.
