Proposal to construct retail building. (Continued from Planning Commission September 10, 1985) City Engineer Schaller presented county survey taken in July of 1982 from 7:00 a.m. to 6:45 p.m, show that 22,441 vehicles went through the intersection of Lorain Road and Great Northern Blvd; 2482 vehicles turn left from Lorain Road (west bound) south onto Great Northern. No projected figures are available taking into consideration the opening of relocated S.R.252 south. He also gave the members copies of accident reports since 1984. City Engineer Schaller advised that he was told by the Design Department of the Ohio Department of Trans- portation, that at time of the purchase of the right of-way, a tem- porary easement was purchased for use during the construction; that easement would extend almost to the building. They also stated that the Lorain Road cuzb cut would not be acceptable after the road was put in (this has been considered temporary)Pand that the building would have to be set to the grade of the proposed road. Mr. Schaller will get this information in writing. Mr. Manning, attorney for Mr. Puzzitiello, stated that the developer would agree to close the Lorain Road driveway. Assistant Law Director Dubelko advised that the Com- -mission cannot. deny approval on basis of traffic. He went on to say that Section 1174.03 requires a set back of twenty five feet from a side street, but cannot reduce the buildable area to less than twenty- five feet. The Law Department does not believe that relocated S.R.252 could be considered a side street (which implies a municipal street); it is the intex'preta.tion of the Law'Dept,that a-building at this loca- tion would require a 50' set back on both Lorain Road and 252. Mr. Manning stated that this would make this property virtually unbuild- - able, since it would leave only 25' on which to construct a building
