? . ? Cinnamon Woods Detailed Development Plan, property bounded by the rear property lines of homes on the west side of Barton Road, Interstate 480 and Olmsted Township; to forward it to the Engineering Department for their input and Safety for their input, specifically looking at the need for sidewalks along at least the main road; to refer this to B.Z.D. for their review with the request that this coirnnittee look at the sidewalk issue also; and further, to ask the developer to provide an update of the floor plans prior to the B.Z.D. meeting for the Commission's review at the next meeting, since it is our tanderstanding that these floor plans are an upgrade. Also this approval includes all recommendations of the Architectural Review Board and the stipulation that the developer work with the forester, seconded by L. Orlowski, and lmanimously approved. IV. NEw DEV.ELOPMEIVTS AND SUBDIVISIONS: 1) Cooper-0'Leary Subdivision. The proposal is to combine and re-subdivide permanent parcel nos. 232-9-36, 232-9-37, and 232-12-1, located between Lorain Road and Mill Road (the current site of Cross Roads Oldsmobile, 27500 Lorain.Road) into two (2) sublots. Zoning is General Retail Business, entirely. Paxcel "A" does not conform to the side yaxd requirement and Parcel "B" does not conform to the frontage requirement of the Plaming and Zoning Code (Section 1139.07 and 1139.06, respectively). City Engineer Deichmann explained the plat: on parcel "A" the existing side yard is 16.77 feet and the min; m„m should be 50 feet and on parcel "B" the minimm frontage should be 150 feet and 102 feet are showri. He further explained that at present there is one large parcel facing Lorain Road and two smaller parcels abutting it-facing Mill Road. The existing Lorain Road parcel is now conforming; the non-conforming side yard is existing, and the subdivision will not change that; some of the asphalt parking lot for paxcel "A" actually extends onto parcel `"B". He was concerned since the storm water retention system for the building will end up on parcel "B" so the building wi11 not be in compliance with ordinance pertaining to storm water retention. Mr. Lwn, representing Cooper 0'Leary Land Company, and.Mr. Nef£, the engineer, explained the plans. Mr. Neff stated that there is an option on Parcel "B" to consolidate it later on with the Sherwin Williams property abutting it which is contingent upon this parcel being split off. There are two other Mill Road lots adjacent to Parcel "B" which are also imder option. This would be a separate issue. As pa.rt of the negotiation there is an agreement that the present owners wi11 have final control over the retention system. Chairman Gorris would like to see the total proposal. Mr. Neff advised that they are not involved in that proposal and he is merely informing the Comm-ission that there is an option to consolidate parcel "B". Origina.lly Stark Development held the option, but this possibly is being changed. Mr. Ltun, owner and operator of the business on the property (Cross Roads Dealership), explained the reasons for splitting the property. The dealership only utilizes parcel "A", the paved portion of parcel "B" is not used; he intends to lease parcel "A" to the Chrysler Corporation and then lease it back for the operation of the dealership; Chrysler only wants to lease parcel "A" and parcel "B" will never be used as part of the dealership. He had been offered an option for the parcel in the event that, in the future, the vacant property will be purchased. He stated that he could not sell the property until it is split, but there is nothing definite about this sale and he is not asking for the lot split because of this transaction. Mr. Deichmann clarified that if this split is approved as submitted parcel "A" will have no retention system since it is located on parcel "B"; however there could be an easement guaranteeing the continued use of the retention facilities on parcel "B". Mr. Neff agreed. Mr. Deichmann explained 7
