y Mr. -Strelau, architect, presented plans and advised that they had acquired the necessary variances and have received approval from the Safety Department, Fire, Police, and City Engineer and believe that they have addressed all the concerns of the planuing commission. In reference to the Fire Department's report stating "Vehicle access shall meet the requ.irements of Chapter 1721 of the Fire Prevention Code of the City of North Olmsted", Mr. Tallon questioned if the plan did, in fact, meet that code. Assistant Buildiug Commissioner Rymarczyk was not sure, but assumed that it did. Mr. Tallon believed that the answer was vague and he was not sure that the plan conformed. Mr. Strelau understood that they had done a plan review. Regarding the back entrance, Mr. Strelau explained that there would be a hallway. Mr. Tallon would like them to show the rear door on the site plan and indicate the hall. Mr. Strelau stated that signage would be installed to indicate it was an entrance. There would be no sidewalk to the front since there was a rear access. Mr. Tallon asked that it be made part of the record that the rear door must remain unlocked during business hours so customers did not have to walk in the.parking lot. Mr. Strelau clarified that the narrowest point of the exit drive would be a miuimum of 15 feet and would be 20 feet at the widest poi4t. City Engineer Deiclunaun advised that he had not received a drainage plan, but he did not anticipate a problem. Chairman Tallon stated that this will be sent to architectural review board but he would like it returned to Safety for review for confoimauce to chapter 1721 and ask that they advise if these radiuses would meet the requirements. Perhaps the Building Department would :look into them as well. They would also like to see the building materials that are presented to architectural review board. Mr. Mauning asked if the developer could advise if the video store was definitely going in and if it would be a long term lease. He.was concerned that a second business might move in that would have tractor trailer deliveries since there was no way a semi could get in there. Mr. Strelau was not aware of the terms of the lease, but advised that since there was no loading dock it, the building could not accommodate semi deliveries. He believed that businesses that had that kind of deliveries were usually in the range of 20,000 to 30,000 square feet or above and this was a 6,000 square foot building. R. Tallon moved to forward the Silverdale Plaza proposal, 26324 Lorain Road, to the architectural review board and Safety and request that the building materials be presented at the ne}ct meeting and that the rear door be shown on the site plan. The motion was seconded by T. Brennan, and unanimously approved. 3) BP Oil Company, 29131 Lorain Road. Proposal to construct gas station (existing station and adjacent mini-mart will be demolished).
