. -1-1 order to keep the character of the neighborhood, they have provided a landscaped buffer to shield the neighbors from this property. They have also proposed another curb cut which Mr. Strelau believes will reduce the traffic in the area. If the neighbors oppose this curb cut it can be redesigned to theii, satisfaction. He explained that city ordinances stipulate the amount of water that properties can impose on the sewers; the water must be retained on the property before it is discharged into the sewer system. The reason for the retail designation is to be in continuity with what is already on Lorain Rd. He believed, if this were rezoned for office use only, it would create spot zoning. A neighbor stated he is not happy with what is on Lorain Road now and does not, want those conditions expanded. R. Tallon made a motion to deny the request to rezone Mr. Ondich's property to retail business district from Single Family B; this committee sees no reason why this property should not remain as residential property in a residential neighborhood; the intrusion upon the residents would be detrimental to their health, safety, and quality of life; therefore we move to deny. The motion was seconded by T. Herbster and unauimously approved. 2) Great Northern Properties Company Lot Split Plat. The proposal is to again subdivide permauent parcel number 236-17-04, located on the South side of Country Club Blvd. East of Crreat Northern Blvd. (and the site of the proposed Marriott Courtyard), into two (2) parcels. Zoning is Mixed Use District, entirely. L. Corsi, developer, explained that since this property had been before the board previously, there was little left to say, but he was willing to address any questions. A neigb.bor questioned the lot split, and thought that this proposal was already approved and definitely going to be developed. Mr. Tallon explained that in order to develop the lot they must subdivide it, because only a portion of the entire lot will be the Marriott Courtyard, and the remainder will remain the property of Biskind Development Company. The neighbor noted that there had been homes tom down. L. Corsi responded they tore down the two homes at the request of the residents and the city, , because they were rental homes, and trashed beyond repair. The neighbor still did not understand why they had to split the lot. R. Tallon explained that the city actually requires them to split the lot so that each development has its own property lines. R. Tallon moved to approve the proposal to subdivide permauent parcel number 236- 17-04, located on the south side of Country Club Boulevard, east of Grreat Northern Boulevard (and the site of the proposed Marriott Courtyard), into two (2) parcels.
