Regular Council Meeting 4-17-00 Page 11 is a way to put specific constraints in the landscaping that would be required as part of the overall permitting process so that if someone else comes along, we can say you must achieve a certain opacity for example. I'm not sure that our ordinances require that. In Cleveland and Strongsville, there are specific requirements for not just the kinds of trees or what you plant, design review, we generally have some sign off provision by a Village Landscape Architect and that is the way it would be controlled. The differences between the use versus the physical dimensional. I think that there is a lot of good reason for us to look at the totality of these requests to improve it in this instance. I think the concerns about what would happen in the futtue are really very abstract and you don't give up your right to hold your ground on the issues later on. If someone else comes up, it may be driven more by economic factors. We may want it to be that way. I don't know that now but I am suggesting we may want to look closer at how Beta functions now and if there is a different profile that may be, in the long run, more advantageous to the Village that reflects a shift to a more sexvice-oriented commercial base, it could be quite advantageous.
