Violation of Ord. 87-93, Section 1165.05. Also request vari- ance for unpaved loading zones. Violation of Ord. 87-93, Section 1161.12. Chairman Remmel called all interested par.ties before the Board. The oath was administered to Mr. Schill, representing Mongello and Associates, who explained they will be constructing an addition between the two existing storage buildings at the rear of the property. This addition will not increase their business or the number of employees, and they do not believe that they need additional p ark- ing spaces. They have no plans to install any additional paving. Mr. Remmel stated that when he was on the site there was so much standing water a customer could not drive back to the existing buildings. Mr.. Bugala.pointed out there was lumber stored in the parking snaces now.. Mr,. Schill believed that most customers pick up materials at the side entrance of the main b uilding. Mr. Gareau and.Mr. Gomersall both stated that they had driven to the rear to pick. up some materials. It was suggested that a driveway could be installed to this area. Board agrees that it would be a hardship to pave the entire rear yard and business is legally non-conforming. Mr. Conway explained that they would be 22 parking spaces short without the proposed addition. The Board agreed that as a practical matter there was normally enough parking. C. Remmel moved to grant the requested variance for the 28 parking spaces conditioned upon.the return of the parking area to viable parking spaces which is now occupied by material storage and the construction of a suitable paved driveway, at least 20 feet wide9 back past the existing storage building to the new area as pxe- scribed by the Planning Commission, seconded by R. Gomersall, and unanimously approved. Variance granted. The Board agreed that the loading zones could be paved when the drivewa_y was installed. R. Bugala moved to grant the variance for the unpaved loading zones for North Olmsted Lumber Company, seconded by C. Remmel. Roll call on motion: Bugala, Remmel, and Gomersall, no. Motion failed to passe Variance denied. 11. House of Lamps and Shade Shop, 26800 Lorain Road. Proposal withdrawn by applicant until the next meetingo The meeting was adjourned at 9:55 p.m. C.
