Please revise to meet code. The playground has been enlarged to the point that previously approved handicap parking and landscaping has been eliminated. Please explain were the handicap parking was relocated to, and please revise the landscape plan to not eliminate landscaping, especially to screen the playground from the service area and streets. Please provide a typical of the proposed fence. • 1 believe a gate leading out to the service area is a really bad idea (CEPTED). In fact, that side should have an eight -foot tall opaque barrier between the two non - compatible uses. • Please provide all anticipated playground equipment at this time for review. Please understand that the City has recently worked with several "Daycare" operators and sod, as proposed, is not the recommended groundcover around playground equipment.
