Planning and Zoning Commission <br />Minutes <br />March 12,2019 <br />may be based upon the plan that is submitted. What can we do now, to assure that every car that <br />drives down that road is not impacted by all this junk we have done wrong? I want to know how <br />we fix this. The study, I feel, is completely flawed, based on the assumptions that were made and <br />what happened during construction. So my question to you is what do we do now? <br />Mr. Healy said the results of the study indicate that there is no potential for after, or no potential <br />for eye damage, at the various observation points that were indicated in that table. <br />Mr. Rockett said we are at the point that we understand that the test looks at eye damage and that <br />is what it is based upon. In your professional opinion, is there glint or glare that could be <br />detrimental to one's ability to operate a moving vehicle that would not be damaging to the eye? <br />Mr. Healy said I do not believe so. <br />Mr. Rockett: You do not believe that there is a glare that can negatively impact an individual's <br />ability to drive a car, even if it were at a level that was less than what would damage a retina? Is <br />that what you are stating? <br />Mr. Healy said I am stating, that the glare that would occur, is going to be similar to the <br />headlights in a car coming down the road right into your eyes, if you are facing that direction. On <br />Mount Pleasant Road, you are driving in a north-south direction, so any glare would be coming <br />from your left side, if you are driving north, or from your right side and not directly in your eyes. <br />On Joyner Road, you are driving in as you noted Mr. Pinto, you are driving on an east-west <br />direction and you can see the panels from that juncture and from there, they are off quite a <br />significant distance. <br />That distance, actually, is like seeing headlights in the distance on a highway at night, that glare <br />is going to be minimal from that distance. As you approach, it is going to change, because it does <br />not necessarily apply. We did not analyze every foot along the road to know where glare would <br />occur. So distance and size of the glare makes a difference on its impact, and so from that <br />comer, it is a significant distance to the modules themselves. <br />Mr. Corley said so, just to clarify, your answer to Mr. Rockett's question about the safety ofthe <br />motorists, your answer is based upon the results of your analysis in your report, correct? <br />Mr. Healy said correct. <br />Mr. Wood said to further clarify then, anything Mr. Rockett was just asking, anything in the red <br />you would consider detrimental, but anything yellow would not be? <br />Mr. Healy said anything yellow is just a potential, so I do not believe there will be a significant <br />26
