Aquatic Center at Orange Memorial Park in the Parks and
Recreation (PR) Zoning District in accordance with Title 20 of
the South San Francisco Municipal Code
The Board had the following comments:
1. The Board liked the proposed design concept.
2. The Board would like to see a more activated area behind the outdoorpool
windscreen with a pedestrian walkway or seating areas to engage and activate
the area.
3. Add some articulation to the windscreenwall facing out towards the playing
fields to help break up the long flat wall. Add some different material finishes.
4. Review the corner element where the aquatic sign is being proposed, as the area
looks unbalance and with a disconnected appearance.
5. Consider planting the trees around the pool furtherback to keep the winds from
blowing the leavesinto the outdoor pool and creating maintenance issues.
The Board will review a more detailed plan during the Design Drawings phase.
