FROM PAGE 17 what it should be,” Mitrecic said. Recreation and Parks Director Tom Shuster interjected the department is already in discussions in how the multi-purpose room can be used throughout the off-season. McGean added between OCPD and OCBP there is about 3,000 square feet of storage the building will also be used for throughout the off-season. Councilwoman Margaret Pillas pointed out that while the OCBP could go with a building without covered porches, the design follows OCDC guidelines. “I look at it in a different way. I saw it as another anchored building for downtown … it enhances the downtown for people entering into town,” Pillas said. McGean agreed OCDC Downtown Design Standards call for covered porches. “We do want to follow what we make everyone else do,” he said. Mayor Rick Meehan agreed the town supports OCDCs guidelines that are used for residential and commercial properties in the downtown and the same should be used on public buildings.
Councilman Dennis Dare listed several concerns over an abundance of entrance and exit points throughout the building regarding security, the lobby being too large to be used only as a directory and the elevation of the first floor should be further elevated above base flood elevation to avoid flooding during a storm surge in the downtown. “I think the first floor needs some more work,” Dare said. McGean explained the number of exterior doors was included to have the building be as efficient as possible. McGean furthered a city-wide controlled access will be added to the building where access is granted in certain doors with an employee ID card. “Height wise we will get what we can,” McGean said. “If you raise the entire building an additional two feet you wind up with losing area around the building because you have to put in ramps to access the elevator lobby but we will raise it up as much as we can from ground level.” McGean concluded the 245square-foot lobby along with other concerns will be “taken to heart.” “The lobby is quite intimidating, especially to walk in and not have anybody there” Council Secretary Mary Knight said. McGean reassured the council the conceptual design can be tweaked. “I hear you loud and clear,” he said. There was no action taken. The design will be revised to address council concerns and return for approval.
