ARCHITECTURAL BOARD OF REVIEW JUNE 16, 1982 PAGE 4 (c) Csapo Dental Lab (Corna and Associates), 25710 Lorain Rd. Proposal to construct Dental Laboratory Mr. Diaquilla explained that the exterior wall will be sprayed on stucco (or dryvit) over drywall an.d styrofoam with white frame windows. The building will be split level to conform to the slope of the property. The roof will be shingled with woocl:. or heavy asphalt in light shades of gray. Mr. Parry stated that the adjacent building has cedar shake roof, and he believes that a cedar shake roof on this structure would.be more compatibTe,-A descrepency in the plan shows that the sloped roof in the front of the build- ing is shown with skylights on the east elevation; however those skylights do not appear on the south elevation of the building. That feature will be very important in viewing the building from the street. The Board feels that the placement of those skylights should be carefully considered by the Architect for the exterior aesthetic consideration as well as the interior lighting.

Parry, and unanimously approved. (b) Clark Oil Co. Resumed from earlier in the meeting. Mr. Fix re-presented the plans with the non-applicable por- tions crossed off the plans. The new upper facia will be federal brown aluminium and the glass will remain on the lower portion. There will be a new building sign, but the canopy will have no signage and total signage will be re- duced. The chain link fence on the east property line will be removed, and a new guard rail will be installed. R. Parry moved to approve, the Clark Oil Co. proposal as pre- sented, seconded by M. Case and unanimously approved. Councilwoman Y. Petrigac from the BZD Committee of Council advised the Board of some of the goals of the committee: to include extra plantings wherever possible, to plan for the proposed Industrial Park, to clean up abandoned pole signs, to change Ordinances pertaining to fences in the General Retail District.
