? ----------- -------- - --- PLANNING COMMISSION APRIL 14, 1987 PAGE 2 explained that a 5 foot board on board fence will be installed on the rear property line and around dumpster; 43 parking spaces including 2 handicapped spaces are planned (40 are required); C.E.I. pole lights will be installed on front and rear of property; and there will be two driveways on Lorain Road and one on Fleharty Road. Mr. Morgan suggested that one of the curb cuts on Lorain Road be eliminated; that lower building lights be used in the rear property instead of pole lights; and that fence be 6 feet high instead of 5 feet. Mr. Schill s.tated that they had planned that trucks would enter the westerly Lorain Road drive and exit the Fleharty Road.drive (no such signage is planned), but believes that their client would agree to one more centrally located drive. The Commission questioned the distance between the Fleharty Road curb cut to the adjacent residential cut. This is not on the plans, b ut Mr. Sanker will check it. Mr. Peters and Mr. Mues, who live at the rear of this property, viewed the plans. Mr. Peters expressed concern about drainage (this property is higher than theirs); fencing, lighting, traffic on Fleharty, location and height of building, and snow being plowed onto their property. It was explained that retention and drainage plans must be submitted and no.water would be allowed to r.un off onto their property, that the Commission has asked for lower building lights in the rear, and for a 6 foot fence on the rear property line (Mr. Peters would prefer a 3 or 4 foot concrete wall). M. Betts moved to submit plans for the Lorain Corporation that were submitted this evening to the Engineering Department, Safety, and the Architectural Board of Review, and also that the curb cut on Lorain Road be changed from two to one per the discussion with the developer, and with special emphasis placed upon drainage con- cerns to allow those bodies to make recommendations after their review, seconded by E. Traczyk, and unanimously approved. In response to his question, City Engineer Schaller was advised that the drainage concerns must be addressed at the next Planning Commission meeting. 3) Diederich Building, 29732 Lorain Road Proposal to convert dwelling to office building including the eonstruction of two small additions.

A small shed area will be added to the rear of the building for storage-and a new porch will be added on the front. Acting Building Commissioner Sanker advised that 9 parking spaces are re- quired and 10 spaces including a handicapped space are planned. Low, 6 foot high pole lights are planned and there will be no dumpster. The Engineering Department has received retention plans, but these have not been reviewed as yet.
