Does the Walker company intend to include electric charging stations, cisterns to capture rainwater for irrigation, solar panels to help power lighting and other contemporary and environmentally sound concepts? Or will we get another elephant peering out of the landscape?
Spend like there’s no tomorrow…the real motto of KW city hall.
The City has recently conducted extensive traffic studies, at great time and expense. I had wanted to see designs that limit the demand for cars, not increased dependency. I hope what has now been proposed and contracted with Walker, the traffic recommendations are being taken into full consideration. I also hope that whatever form and design is advanced, it truly does take into account they “be constructed in a manner that is economical and honors the historic district in which it lies.” But as also posted here, I endorse that it “include electric charging stations, cisterns to capture rainwater for irrigation, solar panels to help power lighting and other contemporary and environmentally sound concepts.” Garages can also be design and eco-smart.
