i_ ?, lowered so that the bottom of the fixture is no higher than the canopy even if they needed more poles. Mr. Duffy responded that the poles on the property now are higher than that. R. Tallon moved that the BP Oil Company proposal, 29131 Lorain Road, be continued until January 23, 1996, seconded by T. Brennan, and unanimously approved. 6) Ziebart Tidy Car, 27935 Lorain Road. Proposal to construct building. Mr. Beardsworth, owner of Ziebart Tidy Car, explained that the business is currently located:on Porter Road in North Olmsted. The new building is proposed for the vacant property adjacent to Kenny Kings. Building Commissioner Conway advised that he did not send any information relative to variances, since there would be ample room to correct the code violations. The driveway will have to be orientated at a 90 degree angle to Lorain Road, and a loading zone will have to be added but since it only has to be a 12 by 25 foot space, this should not present a problem. Mr. Beardsworth clarified that a proposal had been approved previously for a building for the Rooney Carpet Cleaning business on this same property. He noted that the Rooney build.ing was to have been 45 by 115 feet, and would have had two stories; their building will be slightly smaller and will only be one story, but it will be placed in about the same location. He explained that they intended to install a mound on the back portion of the lot exactly the same way the Kenny King's property is mounded with Austrian pines on top. The mound will be directly behind the parking area. Since their business is only open from 8:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. lights would not be a real problem but they did intend to put them on timers. The monument sign in front would stay lit. He advised that he had data sheets with him showing that all their materials are EPA approved. Nineteen parking spaces are shown, and he preferred not to landbank any, since they hope to increase both their business and the number of employees at the new location. The building will be split face block with Ziebart blue accent bands and logo. There will be no roof top units on the building. R. Tallon moved to forward the Ziebart Tidy Car, 27935 Lorain Road, proposal to construct a building, to the arclutectural 'review board and to approve the proposal with the foltowing stipulations: that the landscaped area shown at the rear of the parking lot will be a mou.nded buffer similar to the Kenny King's buffer; the lighting will be on a timer; the drive will be changed to be 90 degrees to Lorain Road; a loading zone to be included in the plans: and, also, including the recommendations of the architectural board. The motion was seconded by K O'Rourke, and unanimously approved. Mr. Beardsworth was advised to bring color samples of materials and a detailed landscape plan to the architectural review board meeting. Chairinau Tallon advised that this would not have to return to the commission, but any addition that the architectural review board might have should be included in the recommendations. 7) Alexander's Restaurant (formerly Nightfall Night Club), 30850 Lorain Road. Review of site plan. Proposal to be refeired to board of zoning appeals. Mr. Patel, owner, eaplained that the business will now be known as Alexander's. He will be re-paving the existing parking lot and installing new parking on the east side and paving behind the building. (A plan had been approved some time ago for Nightfall, but was never constructed). Assistant City Engineer McDermott advised that a retention plan had been submitted, but a new plan will have to be designed to meet culTent criteria. Mr. Patel stated that they would do whatever was needed. Chairman Tallon noted that the 20 foot setback had been eluninated on the new parking areas. Mr. Patel responded that this would eliminate about 17 parking spaces. He clarified that this business will be a restaurant and bar with billiard tables and will be open from 10:00 a.m. until 2:30 a.m. daily. Mr. Herbster stated that the previous approval required a 5 foot high mound on the rear property liue with 6
