Mr. Kirby stated that an ORAD was submitted in the fall of 2018 where it was determined that the landscaped islands in the parking lot may be jurisdictional. Mr. Kirby stated that in the existing conditions there is about 125,000 sq. ft. of “non-green” area. The proposed construction will roughly remain in the existing footprint of the current parking and building areas. A wetland replication area is proposed adjacent to the proposed garage. Mr. Kirby showed the Commission the proposed stormwater management plan with additional information to come when the Notice of Intent is submitted. Mr. Kirby explained that the first floor of the proposed building will be above the floodplain; however, the garage will be below the floodplain level. A detailed maintenance plan will be submitted with the permit application. Mr. Sores stated that, though the impervious surface area of the proposed construction is greater than the existing structures, the stormwater discharge is not increasing. Mr. Sores
