J ? PLANNING COMMISSION SEPTEMBER 23, 1986 PAGE 2 can make the owner remove seats or can cite him for not conforming. He called attention to Section 1212.01, paragraph B, of the Zoning Code which indicates that "Standards of Design for Parking Areas'! , would be available in the Building Department, and suggested that the owner and the Building Commissioner review this in conjunction with revising the parking layout. Mr. Georgalis tried to explain:: what he is trying to do stating that he acutally has 40 spaces now and that with these revisions he can easily add 7 spaces. He further stated that he is trying to upgrade his building and is not adding seats. After much discussion, Mr. Georgalis agreed to withdraw his proposal and return with a cbrrect parking plan at the next meeting. He was advised that parking layout should include the correct angle parking and traffic flow; correct location and screening of dumpster; buffer zone, including types of shrubs and planting to be installed. Proposal is contin,ued at the request of the developer until the next regularly scheduled meeting. 3) D. 0. Summers, 28210 Lorain Road Proposal to alter former gas station to dry cleaning store with drive through window. Mr. Kluchin, architect, and Mr. Goldberg, the owner, presented plans to renovate former gas station to be used for a dry cleaning store. A new canopy for a drive through window will be added; existing stone work will remain; remainder of the building will be vinyl sided (some windows will be removed); overhead garage doors on rear of building will remain; and new landscaping will be added. There is an existing chain link fence with slats on the rear of the property and the Commis- sion questioned if this-should be replaced with a wood fence similar to the adjacent fence. It was pointed out that they have been re- quiring wood fences recently. Chairman Burns questioned if the southern- most curb cut on West Park Drive should be eliminated. Since one curb cut on Lorain Road will be closed, Mr. Kluchin believes that both curb cuts on West Park are necessary for traffic pattern. In response to the Building Commissioner's question, Assistant Law Director Dubelko advised that West Park would be considered a side street so that a 25' set back for the canopy would be required (canopy is actually 40` from the right of way). Mr. Kluchin advised that the old gas tanks have been removed. Mr. Goldberg explained that the dry cleaning units are sealed and._self contained so there will be no fumes, but that the over- head doors will be used for ventilation since the laundry and cleaning areas are not air conditioned. B. Gorris moved to refer the D. 0. Summers proposal, 28210 Lorain Road to the Architectural Board of Review, to the Safety Department for their review, and to Engineering, and we would like the Archifiectural Board of Review's opinion regarding the screening along the residential lot line to the north of this develop- ment, seconded by J. Wixted,'and unanimously approved. 4) Great Northern Shopping Center Plaza South Proposal to construct two additions to the rear of Plaza South, adjacent to Victoria Lane.
