Proposal to construct two retail buildings (one to be immediately adjacent to existing building at 24749 Lorain Road). (Heard by Archi- tectural Board of Review July 16, 1986). The Architectural Board had approved the proposal with the stipulation that the handicapped spaces be studied and with the understanding that an acceptable sign criteria package will be developed and presented to the City. The Safety Department had stated that the building to the east sits so close to the road and vehicles park between the building and the sidewalk making visibility very bad for traffic exiting this drive. They suggested that they use the exiting west drive, along with the new drive to the west. Mr. Draeger, the architect, explained that there are four existing curb cuts, they will be closing three of them and will be adding one new one. Since there is some confusion on what the Safety Department means, he will meet with them and work this out. Revised plans show a board on board fence on eastern most property line (ir.portion of which goes east and west), handicapped spaces are in front of building, dumpster will be located between two buildings. Building Commissioner Spino pointed out that this property is zoned General Retail on the front 500' feet and the rear is zoned residential, and suggested that the City look into making the zone l.ines,conform to the property lines.
