Dur
ing the Planning Commission hearing, a couple of topics were discussed that would be beneficial proj ect features to include as part of the Project. Specifically, the Planning Commissioner’s request to supply a permanent bike rack with charging capabilities to work in conjunction with the rising trend of e-bikes, and the Commissioner’s request to ensure the pedestrian path between the parking garage and the immediate vicinity of the hotel is adequately luminated. As such, I would like to request a modification to the following conditions , to accommodate these requests.
