r PLANNING COMMISSION MAY 13, 1986 PAGE 3 is required by ordinance and the Planning Commission cannot grant a variance from that requirement. After some discussion it was deter- mined that the house is partially encroaching into the 50' front set back and any alteration would need a special permit from the Board of Zoning Appeals. Assistant Law Director'Dubelko advised that the ramp probably would not require a variance, since it would be considered as a sidewalk. Mr. Hoffman, neighbor to the rear, would like some type buffer in the rear of his property. Mr. Boss will work out some type buffer with Mr. Hoffman. Mr. Dubelko advised that since proposal appears to be non-conforming it cannot be for- warded to the Architectural Board of Review until a special permit is granted by the Board o,f Zoning Appeals. Proposal was withdrawn. 5) Galati's Auto Service Center, 27539 Lorain Rd. Proposal to add to existing garage, review of site plan and landscape plan. (Special permit granted April 10, 1986 by the Board of Zoning Appeals;. special permit approved by Council May 7, 1986). Mr. Galati explained that revised site plan reflects the stipulations made by the BZD Committee which were contingent to the approval of the special permits board on board fenced enclosure to contain cars which are waiting to be repaired and enlarged landscaped areas. BZA Committee had stipulated 25 parking spaces, 10 inside the enclosure and 15 outside; this plan shows 30.spaces, 12 inside enclosure and 1$ outside. Mr. Dubelko advised that proposal could be referred to the BZD for clarification. Planning Commission has no problem with the extra spaces inside enclosure, but wants the three employee spaces adjacent to Lorain Rd. removed. Site,plan must reflect the BZD's stipulations and if that committee decides to allow more spaces, they can so state with their final approval. Mr. Morgan questioned the need for Planning Commission's approval since BZD has put these stipulations on it. Mr. Gorris stated that property is in violation now and he can- nof see approving proposal, Councilwoman Saringer, Chairwoman of the BZD Committee, stated that the committee is hoping to improve the sit- uation that exists at this location. J. Burns moved to refer the Galati proposal to construct an addition to the Architectural Board of Review, the Safety Department, and Engineering, and request that when plans are forwarded back to the Planning Commission that the site plan be redrawn to reflect 25 parking spaces as directed by Council. Roll call on motion; Burns; Brown, Bierman, and Traczyk, Aye. Gorris and Morgan, Nay. Motion carried. IV.
