Chevy Chase Bank Meeting

April 17, 2007, 7:15 p.m.

Sole D'Italia, Ashton

Joe Pearson, Vice President, Real Estate Development, Chevy Chase Bank, presented. He introduced other members of his team who were there to answer specific questions.  He discussed questions that the Park and Planning Staff had about the previous plan.  The meetings with the Park and Planning Staff took place on April 4th and April 9th. Changes were made to accommodate Staff’s concerns.

• The bank entrance is now on Porter Road
• The bank has been moved closer to Route 108
• The exit is only on Route 108, currently eastbound only. With approval, possibly a westbound lane will be added.
• Storm water management is no longer an underground vault, but rather a five foot wide french drain off the parking lot, at the back of the property. This will be better environmentally. Chevy Chase Bank will landscape around the structure.
• As a result of moving closer to Route 108, the bank was able to add a 4th lane of ATM drive through, on the east side of the building. Typically that is what Chevy Chase Bank hopes for in their plans.
• There will be 30 parking spaces, one less than in the previous plan.  There are more parking spaces than required, but Chevy Chase Bank believes that the parking requirements are not realistic.  There is no longer any parking along the Porter Road side of the building. 
• Chevy Chase signage will appear on the front and back of the building only, not on the sides.

• Tree specimens have not been chosen yet, but will probably be a mix of evergreen and deciduous varieties.  There are no plans to remove any trees.

According to Joe Pearson, "This is a county-supported plan."  They will be resubmitting their plan to the Park and Planning Staff by the end of the week and feel that the plan is about 70% complete.  There is no indication yet of a public hearing date, but they are speculating that it will be sometime in October.  They hope to have the groundbreaking in February.
