5 BLPC MEETING #12 OCTOBER 13, 2015 BLPC to conduct online vote to determine preferred site direction and preferred massing option. Straw poll on 10/12: 13 in favor of West Option, 3 in favor of Link Option. (7 members not present) 13 members present in favor of high road to Old Dominion (Site Option C3) Terrace and East off the table. Several members no longer prefer the Link scheme now that program has been reduced and atrium removed. Members of BLPC involved in student instruction largely feel the program reductions are manageable; however all would like to see some program recaptured if possible. APS asked BLPC to consider recommending interpretative exhibit/approach as item that requires additional funding as not in current budget plans. Stratford Middle School - 5

6 PFRC #6 OCTOBER 15, 2015 Straw poll on 10/15: 11 in favor of West Option 6 in favor of high road to Old Dominion 4 in favor of no connection to Old Dominion No support for low road to Old Dominion Discussion focused on whether the high road is needed; close majority vote decided it was important due to the nature of this particular site. Additional issues that the PFRC continues to be concerned about include: Vacation Lane improvements, tree impact of scheme, impact to the RPA/increase of impervious area, impact to the park and the fields, and historic preservation.
