Planning & Zoning Commission/ Local Planning Agency Minutes December 8, 2021 Page 3 In response to the Commission's question, Ms. Hyson explained that an encroachment agreement is being drafted because a portion of the drive through encroaches within the City's utility easement to the south. Mr. Hale asked the applicant to come forward. Ms. Jill Minton, CPH, 500 West Fulton Street, Sanford, Florida came forward. Ms. Minton explained that the engineer of record worked with staff regarding the placement for the sidewalks. She said it was determined that the portions of the sidewalk that are less than 5' would be acceptable rather than push out further and remove impervious surface and landscaping. She said the sidewalks meet ADA requirements and the intent of the City Code. In response to the Commission's question, Ms. Minton explained that the sidewalk was sloped so it would not require stairs or a handrail and there are no speed tables across the driveway area. In response to the Commission's question, Ms. Minton said that there is no grade change. She explained that the markings on the plans are to indicate existing pavement.
