4 ? ?? ? • advised, theoretically, if the board members approved this desigu, which conformed to the new ordinance, the Kaiser sign would still have to be removed come January 1, 1998. He noted the board should verify which sign is approved and which sign would be removed due to the non-conforming status. Mr. Maloney believed the board should also stipulate their may be two businesses on the one ground sign. Building Commissioner Conway advised, if Med Center agrees to allow Kaiser on their sigu, the variance for two ground signs can be removed. Mr. Gomersall confirmed the board will not allow the variance to erect a second free standing sign on this -property. R. Gomersall moved to grant Med Center, 25757 Lorain Road, the following request for variances predicated on the pole sign being removed: a 2 square foot variance in excess of the maximu.m allowable for free standing signage and a 3 square foot variance in excess of the total signage allowable for a business use. All variances granted will be conditional that come January 1, 1998, if the Kaiser sign is removed, space will be allowed on the Med Center sign for Kaiser. This Med Center signage shall be exempt from Ord. 1163.26 pertaining to removal of non-conforming signage. The motion was seconded by J. Maloney and unanimously approved. Variance granted. 3.

Re.quest the following variances for the construction of a two story dwelling: a 139 square foot varianoe for first floor area; a17 foot front setback variance; a 3 foot side yard variance and a 4 foot variance on each side of proposed dwelling for distance from adjacent dwellings. Violation of Ord. 90-125, Section(s) 1135.03 (b), 1135.06 (a) and 1135.07 (a) Heard by board of building code appeals March 27 & Apri117, 1997. Chairman Gomersall called all interested parties before the board. The oath was administered to: Mr. Dunlap; Mr. McDonald; Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton; Mr. Czuchran; Councilman Nashar; Mr. Costa; and Mr. Miller. Mr. Dunlap, bu.ilder, presented the proposal to build a house on a lot that is 40 foot wide and 140 foot deep. The proposed house is 27 feet wide, with the inclusion of an attached garage and total side yard of 13 feet. Mr. Dunlap explained a 3 foot variance is needed for the distance between each side of the proposed dwelling and the neighboring property lines and the 139 square foot variance because there are two floors. He noted at the two previous meetings the neighbors had concerns about worsening the existing drainage problem. The engineering department gave a recommendation on the type of drainage that should be used for this parcel of land, and Mr. Ihuilap agreed to install the dtainage as requested. Mr. Gomersall wondered if Mr. Dunlap intends to install the type of drainage that was recommended, as he believed it was merely a suggestion and not mandatory. Mr. Dunlap advised this drainage was highly suggested as the previous board believed this was necessary and the intention is to install the drainage as suggested. Continuing with his proposal, Mr. Dunlap explained a distance of 15 feet is required between dwellings, therefore a 4 foot variance on each side is required for distance between dwellings.
