Coun- cil President Pro-Tem, Vince Busa presided. Roll Call: Present: Messrs., Barclay, Bordonaro, Busa, Flynn and Schulte Absent: Messrs., Bennett and Grogan Also present were Mayor Beebe, Messrs., Amendola, Byrnes and Hovancsek Mr. Busa advised ,that the purpose of this special meeting was to discuss variance granted at September 27, 1977 meeting re Heinen's. Mr. Busa asked for comments from Council and the audience. Joe Abbate, 6514 Chase Dr. - stated that .the Board can grant a variance with conditions. However, if the Law Director states that the variance is not valid, an appeal can be filed within 10 days with the Court of Common Pleas, by the devoloper, a resident immediately effecting the area in question; or the Mayor. Therefore, since 10 days have lapsed since the variance was granted and no one appealed the variance, a vote is not necessary. Jack Coran, 6563 Hunt Circle, - asked if the Board of Appeals has the power to grant variances concerning only residential areas? Mr. Byrnes replied this is true of the Board of Appeals appointed by the Mayor . Mr. Barclay, seconded by Mr. Schulte, made a motion to amend previous motion by eliminating the conditions attached to variance pertaining to parking and ingress and egress solely from S.O.M. Center Road and also recommendation of Architectural Review Board design. Mr. Flynn asked Mr. Byrnes for his opinion. Mr. Byrnes stated the recommendation of the Board of Appeals to P & Z is invalid as it deprives the P & Z Commission of itssduties and rights per Charter and Ordinance. The qualifications for defining streets are also invalid and that Planning & Zoning has the privilege to make its deter- mination on ingress and egress. Mr. Busa said that the chair did not want to handicap the P & Z Commission and Council granted the variance at request of residents suggestion and from the heart. Mayor Beebe said to clarify a legal point, the conditions.ammended to variance did take away from the Planning and Zoning duties of power. Roll Call: AYES: Mr. Barclay NAYS: Messrs., Bordonaro, Busa, Flynn and Schulte Motion Defeated
