t. 'tt noise from this business. Mr. Fletcher thought that it was unrealistic to keep both doors closed, and wondered if they were going to make A. & K Tire close all their doors and windows. Mr. Herbster stated that A. & K. is there and there is nothing that can be done, but he did not want to add to thf noise problem. He has no problem with the business, just the noise. Mr. Fletcher believed that the noisc, coming out ofthe back door would travel west, not north toward the Porter Road residents. Mr. Tallon asked that he screen the waste oil tank with a 6 foot fence to the end of the property line. Mr. Fletcher explained that the cars would be vented from the tail pipe out the wall or window. Mr. Rymarczyk stated that this is acceptable. He further advised that the sign would meet code. Mr. Brennan asked that there be a timer on the sign so that it went off when they were not open for business. NYr. Fletcher advised that they worked from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 or 5:30 p.m. and he preferred to keep it on after hours for advertising, but that would be negotiable. He further advised that he could not get a schedule for the oil removal yet, because he had no approvals. He assumed that they would remove it during normal business hours. No additional lights will be added, and the building will remain the same, but they might change the trim on the windows. Mr. Carl Halleen, owner of the property, advised that he had talked with Mr. Beebe and his wife, tlie next door ueighbors, who stated that they had no problems with A. & K. and never had any problems Ziebart, and do not foresee any problems with this proposal. He advised that the Beebe's property is zoned commercial, not residential. Mr. Trapp, 5182 Porter Road, advised that he lives three houses away from this properly. He had several questions, and wondered if there had been any notification given to the neighbors in the area. He was advised that notification was given to the adjacent property owners who touch the property and those across the street according to the ordinauce. He wondered who was looking out for the residents. He questioned where the plans and environmental impact issues that should be addressed in terms of secondary containment, storage of hazardous materials, storm sewers, and other issues that should be review under the Oluo Basic Building Code and wondered if this was the body that would look into these issues since he has seen nothing on this and it sounds like it is a completed deal. He stated that chemical plants that operate 'v municipalities have a legal responsibility to uotify residents as to what is going on in their midst. He has not been notified of anytlung pertaining to tlus. He does not know what is going on in this building, he has heard several things, such as oil change, auto repair, aud he heard something about water repair in the beginuing of the meeting and has no idea of what this is. What industrial processes going on here, is there a description of it. Does the board have a description. Does this board submit plans, industrial process descriptions, to a plans reviewer who reviews plans in the light of the Ohio Basic Building Code. Mr. Brennan responded that the Building Department reviews every proposal under the O.B.B.C. and as far as safety issues are concemed, the commission sent out their concerns to the Fire Department and other safety forces after the last meeting regarding combustibles, other kinds of hazardous materials, and they are following State mandated codes. The commission does not pass judgment on that, they merely reviewed the application for the business to be there. Mr. Trapp stated he did not know who reviewed this, but if it is the Builduig Department then that is where the information will be. Mr. Breunan stated that it is not just the Building Department it is all the departments working together, including this body, to see that lus property is protected. Mr. Fletcher advised Mr. Trapp that this is a start up business. Mr. Trapp wondered if the Beebe property was the last commercial property ou Porter Road. Mr. Rymarczyk advised that that it had not been verified that the Beebe property was zoned commercial. Mr. Trapp asked if residents would be given access to the IVISDS sheets. Mr. Tallon advised that the commission did uot review MSDS sheets. Mr. Trapp asked if he were a resident of North Olmsted aud if he cared about his community aud asked why he had not reviewed them as a resident, not as a representative of the city. Mr. Rymarczyk advised that these have been reviewed by the Fire Department to be in coinpliance with their recommendations by the M.F.D.A. Mr. Brennai- stated almost every product has a MSDS sheet'and it is up to the Safety aud Building Departments ani they have done it.
