<br /> <br /> <br />Regular Council Meeting <br />7/17/95 <br />Page 21 <br />Council President Fixler said he will not force a vote this evening. He said we will <br />notify Mr. Zingale when it comes up on the agenda. <br />Deacon's - Jim Deacon said they are talking about getting two lots rezoned. He wants <br />everyone to know they are not here to ruffle feathers. They have been in that location <br />since 1963. He explained that they have been under a lot of pressure from Chrysler <br />Corporation. Their existing showroom was built in the 1920's. They have a proposal <br />for a new building that would satisfy Chrysler, but in order to do so, they need a little bit <br />more storage space. He was a little disappointed in the Zoning meeting. He, along with <br />about 10 residents, received a letter that they were going to have a Planning and Zoning <br />Workshop Meeting. He said they are in the infancy stages of this; he did not expect a <br />vote at all tonight. He wanted to present what they have. They have already spent <br />about $4,000 in landscaping along Wilson Mills. They have hired Andrew Sparks, a <br />registered Landscape Architect. He thinks being in the center of town, they would like <br />their corner across the street to fit in with the gazebo, etc. He thinks they can do this <br />project and still have it fit in, aesthetically, with the Village. Mr. Deacon said this <br />would have to go the ballot someday if it ever can. At earliest, they are talking about <br />next spring. He would like to sit down with Larry and the other neighbors. We want <br />everybody's input. We want to be proud of it when it is done. He would like that to be <br />on the Workshop agenda probably for August, September, October and sit down and <br />have a Workshop. He asked Mr. Sparks to give a preliminary explanation of what has <br />come up. [The model is inside Deacon's showroom if anyone wants to see it.] <br />Mr. Sparks has extra drawings if anyone wants copies. He showed and explained the <br />drawing (which existing plants and trees would stay--proposed new landscaping; <br />changes in ingress and egress points; the front of the building would drop back 20' from <br />where it is now so there is more landscape space there.) <br />Council President Fixler asked Mr. Ferrante to make sure this item is on the next <br />Planning and Zoning Commission Workshop agenda. <br />Mayor Rinker said he would like to have better communication to the people. He <br />asked the Landscape Architect to be present at the meeting. <br />Mr. Basile asked if they were using the residential lot on Wilson Mills Road for storage. <br />Discussion was held. <br />?? ?
