PLANNING COMMISSION DECEMBER 13, 1988 PAGE 7 parcel does not conform to the frontage requirements in a retail district. Mr. Dubelko advised that they can still request a rezoning, but the Commission should take this into consideration. Mr. Carter clarified that he owned abutting property fronting on Lorain.Road, but there_was no access to the storm sewers and his retail property was only 300 feet deep. He believed that a driveway to Columbia Road would alleviate in and out traffice on Lorain.Road. Mr. Bierman stated that it was not necessary to rezone property to install a storm sewer. Chairman Morgan read two letters, one from Kenneth Miller, 4198 Columbia Road and one from Mr. and Mrs. Charles Jandecka, both objecting to the request. Chairman Morgan stated that it is his belief that the current zoning lines as they were created and now exist along Lorain Road should be maintained and that the balance between residential property and commercial property should remain as zoned. T4r. Carter pointed out that the depth of the commercially zoned properties alon:g- Lorain Road varies and he believed that there should be a uniform depth. Neighbors, Mrs. Lancer and Mr. Hipp,. stated their objections because of existing traffic congestion, stating that it some- times takes them 15 minutes to get out of.their drives and that there have been problems with drainage and sewers for years which get worse with each new business that comes into the area. T. Morgan moved to approve the proposal to rezone permanent parcel no. 231-35-6 located on the west side of Columbia Road, north of Lorain Road from the existing "B" Residence, Single zone to Retail Business, General zone which it abuts, with the nota- tion that the parcel does not conform to the Zoning Code for required frontage in a Retail Business District, seconded by R. Bierman. Roll call on motion: Morgan, Bierman, Betts, and Thomas, no. Motion failed to pass. 2) McGlaughlin-DeVault Lot Split The proposal is to re-align the property line between permanent parcel nos. 232-31-63 and 232-31-64, located on..the north side of Tallwood Drive east of Canterbury Road. Zoning is "A" Residence, Single, and both proposed sublots conform to the Zoning Code for required frontage and area. Mr. McGlaughlin explained that they were asking to move the lot line be•- tween the two properties to increase his lot size and decrease Mr. DeVault's. Proposal was explained to Mr. Komisarz, a neighbor, who-had no objection to the proposal. M. Betts moved to approve the McGlaughlin-DeVault Lot $plit, located on the north side of Tallwood Drive, east of Canterbury Road, to re-align the property line between permanent parcel numbers'232-31-63 and 232-31-64, seconded by R.
