Minutes, August 12, 1985 page 3 part, because the building is not fully occupied and other new buildings are also not fully occupied as well, reflecting a current oversupply in the suburban office market. A problem may occur when this, and other new buildings, are more fully occupied, further aggravating an already deteriorated traffic condition. The Board is not satisfied with Mr. Dupree's indefinite plans for dealing with the potential for excessive traffic during peak hours and does not believe the "voluntary" procedures he has sketched are acceptable. Mr. Dupree should submit a definite plan for insuring that excessive traffic movement during the peak traf- fic hours does not occur. That plan should be an agreed upon "back up" to his present controls. If all else fails, the Town should insist that the use of the parking spaces be physically restricted during peak hours and that condition should be included in the special permit.
