set a tirie frame. Mr. Gould stated that any development plans submitted would be in the context with what had been approved preliminarily. Mr. Papandreas advised that they are as concerned with the impact of this development as the Commission is, considering that they want to maintain the upscale image of the developments that they have done so far. They "do have some viable prospects, and they would like to be in a position to proceed with them when necessary. Mr. Skoulis asked if they are not restricting their, plan by designating a specific use at this time considering that the deal could fall through. Mr. Papandreas responded that this is an indication of their commitment, they do ha.ve prospects; however, if this did not materialize, they might have to return to the Commission. No one in the audience chose to speak. Mr. Gorris pointed out that a preliminary plan is quite fluid, previous master plans have changed, but this at least gives an idea of what the thinking is for this area. However, he reiterated Mr. Dubelko's point, that if a use does not fit into the plan, there is a possibility that this use could be vetoed. Mr. Skoulis believed that this plan will be changed along -the line. Mr. Gorris pointed out that there is no demand for additional office buildings at this time, and at least they are starting to develop this end of the parcel. He had no objection to a restaurant. Mr. Skoulis has no problem with the restaurant, but does have a concern about 3 restaurant/service buildings since he is not sure of what could fall into that category. He pointed out that they could not just put in retail sales, something specific must be presented. Mr. Orlowski stated that it would have to be retail sales that could be integrated with the whole context of the area. L. Orlowski moved that the Biskind Development Company Parcel "B':, bounded by Great Northern Boulevaxd, I-480, Country Club Boulevard, and Columtiia Road, the proposed amendment to the preliminary land use plan in Mixed Use District "A" and this is the western most third of this parcel (adjacent to Great Northern Boulevard) of the plan that was approved in 1986. Proposed preliminary use is restaurant service, seconded by R. Bowen, and unanimously approved. Motion carried. In response to Mr. Orlowski's question, Mr. Papandreas advised tha.t parcel "B" is 18 acres. 3) Cablevision, 25990 Lorain Road. , Proposal to instali 10 by 20 foot service building'on the northeast corner of the Recreational Center building. Property is zoned "B" Residence, Single Family, and a conditional use permit is required. Mr. Kraly, architect, Mr. Demaris, Mr. Wells, and Mr. Hume, all from Cablevision presented plans. Mr. Kraly explained that the 10 by 20 by 10 foot service building (approximately 130 to 140 feet off the property line) would be enclosed with a 10 foot high chain link fence; a semi-circular eaxth mound and evergreens, also planted in a semi-circle, will be installed between the building and the adjacent residential properties to form a buffer. Since there is a 4 foot difference in grade between the residential property and the area where the building is located, the residents would only see about 6 feet of the building and that will be obscured by the landscaping. The building will contain electronic equipment which will replace the existing satellite dish, trailers and structures that are behind the recreation building now. Mr. Orlowski questioned why this building could not be behind the recreatibn center building instead of to the side. Mr. Kraly responded that the city preferred this location in order to clear the area behind the building for future development. He would not be adverse to relocating the building to the' rear. They will have to re-cut the PXjsting lease. Mr. Kraly clarified the fiber cable has been installed in North Olmsted, but will not be v.sed until this facility is complete, and that the . building is designed for -this use; that there will be no noise or interference; 3 ? - i'
