124 <br />Mr. Feneli said he did not think anyone has said that nothing could be done <br />about the problem, but that the Village could not do anything about it. It <br />is an unfortunate situation that has arisen between residential property- <br />owners and the School Board. The property owners entered into voluntary <br />contracts selling property to the School Board. A couple of the contracts <br />included, as a condition of the contract that a buffer zone must be built <br />at the sole expense of the School Board. If that was not done, it can still <br />be disc.ussed with the School Board. The problem is the Village cannot get , <br />involved. It is a private contract between the property owners and the <br />School Board. The Village has no requirements concerning buffer zones on <br />residential property. School property is zoned residential. A parking lot <br />is an accessory use to a school building. <br />Mr. Scaccia explained the other property owners on Lander Road want a green <br />buffer zone 20 feet behind their property. Since his property line is 100 <br />feet less than his rieighbors, the parking lot would only be 120 feet away <br />from his house even with a 20 foot buffer zone. He would like to purchase <br />this 100 feet so that his property is even with the others. <br />Mr. Amendola explained the.School Board just came before the Planning and <br />Zoning Commission two months ago. All other properties were.purchased without <br />proper 1ot splits being approved. The Village was not aware the School Board <br />was purchasing these properties. If the matter would have been taken to the <br />Plarining and Zoning Commission the rear line of the lots would have been straight. <br />It was the responsibility of both p.arties (the School Board and the property <br />owners) to notify the Planning and Zoning Commission. <br />Mr. Dan Jebutis, 1019 Lander Road - asked if the School Board received a permit <br />for the fence they just erected, changing from a 4 foot fence to an 8 foot fence. <br />He asked if a parking lot was allowed to be that close to a property line. <br />Mr. Amendola explained an 8 foot fence.is allowed under our building code but <br />no permit was issued. An industrial park is permitted to build a parking lot <br />within 20 feet of property and.the School Board would also be entitled.to. <br />Discussion was held regarding the use of residential property as a school facility <br />which excludes it from certain zoning requirements of regular residential property <br />or industrial park property. Discussion was held on a road leading to school property that was to be for <br />temporary use only. <br />Mr. Jebutis asked who is responsible to maintain the drainage from their property <br />onto the School Board's property. The residents notified the School Board of <br />drainage problems which were ignored. <br />Mr. Feneli said the School Board cannot change the grade or flow of surface water <br />coming onto their property. . <br />
