The Village City Council reviewed site and building design for a proposed North Side YMCA planned unit development (agenda item 6) and pressed staff for details about stormwater retention and pedestrian safety features.

Speaker 2 introduced the item and asked whether the retention features "won't be filled with water" or would capture groundwater. Speaker 6 replied the retention areas were "not gonna be… those are the tiny water" and described the design to avoid stagnant standing water. Council members also noted railings on sidewalks and discussed access points; staff and participants clarified the site was on Hefner (Hefner/Penn area) with multiple entrances.

Council raised pedestrian-safety considerations and proximity to nearby streets as part of the design-review discussion. No vote or final design approval is recorded in the transcript.
