Vision is to make an attractive, well-lit parking lot with pathways to Market Street, as well as to provide space for the summer farmers' market. The winter market space has already been approved by TC. Another goal is to maximize parking to alleviate parking issues ini the downtown area. Safety for pedestrians walking on the sidewalks to Market St. is a big concern  since they are currently used due to poor lighting.  Discussion Topics  Traffic flow - Frazier Associates (under contract with Virginia Main Street to assist Onancock Main Street with designs) has suggested that access into the parking lot be from the Ames Street entrance only. That the main area of the lot be two-way, with drivers also allowed to exit from the lot onto Ames Street, but that the roadway running along the side of the movie theater be one-way (with egress only) onto Market Street. The point where it becomes designated one-way would be determined by the traffic o Questions arose about the No Parking signs next to the Roseland. No one knows Ray said that parents taking children to wrestling practice at the GOAT House want to enter next to the building. He is opposed to a one-way section of Queen Scott opposed the one-way idea as people want to park as close as possible to where they are going. It disrupts parking for his business and is unsafe. There is no traffic study supporting this idea. Disabled people would be disadvantaged. Customers want parking near the Theatre. DHHS recommends not parking directly next to a public building sO parking spaces next to his building would be Jim mentioned that people are parking ini the right of way. His building is more  flow design of the lot.  who put the signs up. Matt offered to remove the signs.  St.  contrary to their guidance. valuable with parking.  I6    Joe has exited onto Market with al U-Haul truck and found it unsafe. He also mentioned that traffic on Ames (per Kathy Runninger) can be quite fast. They have no issue with the number of parking spaces and have not had impeded Fletcher said the area between the Print Cottage building and Roseland has been aproblem historically for 30 years. We need a solution as it doesn't work well now with people stopping to unload and blocking up Market St.  access.  Lighting - While we want sufficient lighting for safety, we also need to consider the homeowners' needs not to have excessive lighting in their yards. Safety is our main Excessive lighting. - Anne Kyle says that since the Town has selected dark: sky fixtures, she has no problem. She wants lighting for safety. She will put some lighting in her parking lot. Joe Devaney said that given the vegetation, it mitigates light intruding on their property. He supports dark sky lighting. Lighting levels can be variable to change the lumens and warmth. Scott said it could be put on activity level sO that if it senses movement, it gets brighter. Landscaping- Maintaining the visual appeal of our Town is important, but we also want tor maximize parking spaces. What ideas do we have for balancing these needs?  concern. Dark sky compliance is important also.  Oak tree.  Scott advocated angled in parking stopping at the drip line of the tree if Anne Kyle said it drops limbs all the time and if we design around this tree, then the tree dies, we need to have a plan for that occurrence also. Matt has made a valiant effort to save the tree. The arborist (Mark Belknap) doesn'tsee it as a danger for the next 18 months. It will be fertilized, limbs are cabled, and there is lightening protection. Matt said we do need a phase 2 plan if the tree is lost. Fletcher mentioned the liability problem. Even walking under itis dangerous. New limbs have fallen recently. Allowing people to walk under the tree increases the Town's liability.
