They claim 8" sewer is not ade- quate nor is it maintained. Mr. Schaller stated that sewers were dye tested in 1979 and found to be adequate. The Engineering Department will have to make a final review of the retention and drainage and will also try to determine if there is a maintenance problem with sewer. Assistant Law Director Dubelko advised that the Planning Commission could not disapprove a proposal on the basis of sewer inadequacy; this would be a matter for the Engineering Department and any maintenance problem would have to be directed to the Service Department. T. Morgan moved that the Landspan Corporation proposal which is.located on the north west corner of Lorain Road and West 231 Street, to construct a retail building (strip shopping center) be approved with recommendations 1, 2, and 3, as contained in the Architectural Board of Review Minutes of September 19, 1984, but deleting recommendations 4 and 5; and also including the recommendations of the Police Department report that the existing brush and trees north of the driveway on West 231 Street lie cut back at least 20' to improve visibility and with our recommenda- tion that this area be landscaped consistant with requested landscape plan; and also including'the recommendations of the Fire Department report on September 14th that a fire hydrant be installed on the east parking lot island and be supplied from the Lorain Road water main, seconded by E. Traczyk, and unanimously approved.
