happen, but it has not happened at the other facility. Since there is parking in back, they would probably designate an area where cars could be kept, if necessary. Mr. Nemer, the owner of the building, advised that they do have room to expand the parking in back if needed. Mr. Tallon did not want any cars stored on the property. Mr. Capone repeated that cars would probably not be stored since most of their work is completed within an hour. This is not a body shop. Mr. Manning is concerned about people driving over a pedestrian sidewallc. Mr. Capone reiterated. that estimating a car outside was not satisfactory, and he clarified that they tried to keep customers away from the back of the building since their process is patented and they do not want customers watching them work. 1V1i. Manning stated that they should get a drive through type building, or at least, a unit at the end of the building. The members would not have a problein if the cars came into the rear of the facility, and explained that he might have to shift his operation from frout to back with the estimating room in back. The members believed that having a garage door in the front of the building will uot look too good. Mr. Koeth is concerned about having a car in a retail building considering the fiunes. Assistant Building Commissioner Rymarczyk advised that there is a fire wall on either side of the unit, and about all they might need would be an exhaust fau since they are not working with paint, but this would be studied with the working drawings. Mr. Tallon is concerned about the fumes because there is a pizza restaurant on one side and a beauty parlor on the other side. After some discussion ainoug the meinbers, Mr. Manv.iug stated that he did not like the idea at all in this type building because they are mixing auto repair with food. He believed that there are many places in town that would be more appropriate. He explained to the owner that, this is a gas station type of operation, and it would not be fair to the other tenants. Mr. Nemer believed that another type of business would have more traffic. Mr. Tallou stated that they were more concerned about briuging cars into tlte building with other tenants. Mr. Nemer stated that he had seen the other operation, and it was in the same type of building. After Mr. Capone explained what was in the other building, the members noted that there was no food service or beauty shop there. He clarified that there was uo noise since there are no hydraulic tools, pounding, etc. and is a very clean operation and there was a cluld care center upstairs from the other facility. They started out with a mobile service for automobile dealers and wanY to expand to a retail service. Mr. Tallon would like to refer this to the Building Commissiouer aud Fire Department to determine if this would be acceptable to the building standards, O.S.H.A. and what would have to be done to meet all the standards of having vehicles inside a building, and if the commissioner believes that this is feasible and can be done, the cou?nission will review this at the uext ineetiug. Mr. Rymarczyk advised that the developer would have to present a complete set of plans for review. R. Tallon moved to table The Dent Wizard, 29336 Lorain Road, request for couditional use permit required for auto repair shop (dent repair only) and proposal to add overhead doors to existing unit in shopping center until the next meetiug so that the developer can present plans to the building commissioner early enough so they could be reviewed to make sure the business is safe, and to see what needs have to be met, such as O.S.H.A. or EPA acceptance, sou.nd proofing, since they are bringing automobiles into a building. These plans will be sent to the various departments for review. T1ie motion was seconded by T. Herbster and uuau'vnously approved. It was clai-ified that the building departinent would refer the plans to the various departmeuts, but Mr. Capoue would have to present detailed plans for review. Mr. Manning asked Mr. Capone to biing soine pictures of the existing facility and he explained that the commission was asking for all this inforulation at this time, so the developer could sell the commission on this proposal, instead of the commission turning it down immediately. 4) L.
