ARCHITECTUR.AL BOARD Ok' REVIEW MARCH 16, 1988 PAGE 2 is not necessary. They will be adding only 250 square foot o.f floor area and 750 square foot of roof area, colors will match the revised color sche7ne which was approved by this Board previously. A small existing pediment will be removed and a new architectural_feature with a sign area will be created further south. Mr. Zergott questioned if they were considering a different material for the mirrors, several of which are still broken. PZr. Carlisle stated that the broken mirrors will be replaced and if the vandalism continues they are considering a reflective lexan as a replacement. Mr. Pattison believes that this treatment would appear to be a different type of building system, since the original architectural features are sq_uares and angles, and this treatment is curved, and is suggesting that they take a look at the design. Mr. Carlisle stated that this treatment is similar to that of the M. C. Sporting Goods area, and is purposely a little different, but they will take another look at it. B. Zergott moved to accept the change as submitted with regard to Mr. Pattison's remarks, seconded by M. Case, and unanimously annroved. Law Director Gareau requested an executive session with the Board at this point. 1) Lauren Hill Plaza, 24106 Lorain Road Proposal to construct shopping center.

The existing trees will be maintained in the rear buffer area and twenty seven 8 to 9 foot Austrian pines will be added?with a 6 foot board on board fence on the southern boarder of the buffer area, fence will be intersnersed with evergreens, or if the Board so desires, .fence could be continuous with the evergreens planted behind it (facing the residential nroperty). Mr. Dillon, an adjacent neighbor, stated the neighbors would prefer the fence to be continuous. Wall mounted light fixtures will be installed on the rear of the building, 14 feet above the ground thus spreading the light for apnroximatelv 2$ feet only to the base of the fence.Ground sign will be located 9 feet, 6 itiches from the nroperty line and will be under the 40 square foot maximum. Mr. Zergott pointed out that the Erie vibernum nlanted at the base of the sign would grow too liigh and suggested using something lower, possibly taxus everlow, and stated that the other landscaping is more than satisfactorv. In response to Mr. Pattison, Mr. Seaman advised that the final survey is not complete, but they anticinate no more than a 2 foot grade separation between their property and the adjacent Ground Round propert_y;'and, in response the the neighbors questions, he further advised that the rear of the building will be masonry block treated with
