?p BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS MAY 7, 19.80 PAGE 4 Building Department has charged Mr. Pelech with changing the use of this former residential property to industrial use (contractor's storage). The appellant is requesting to use the barn for an indus- trial use. The property is zoned as a General Retail Business area, but was formerly used as residential and agricultural. The Board studied section 1191.03 of the Zoning Ordinances. Chairman Ledvina moved that the Board sustain the Building Commissioner's ruling that the present use of this property pertaining to the storage of con- struction equipment shall be construed to be a Limited Industrial use, seconded by E. DeVoto, and unanimously approved. A letter ob- jecting to the change of zoning from Home Center, [Jest which is located across the street, was read. Mr. Pelech's representative explained that they are in the process of upgrading the property. The length of the lease is indefinitea It was pointed out that other requests for changing zoning have been denied. E. DeVoto moved to deny the request, seconded by W. [Jasniak, and tmanimously approved. Request denied. Chairman Ledvina read a commtmication from Beverly Martindale re- garding a rumor that a home at 25991 Butternut Ridge Rd has been sold to a foundation for handicapped, retarded young women and objecting to it next to her home. This matter is not before the Board at this time. D. Ledvina advised that he addressed the Charter Re view Commission on Ap ril 16th. He suggested two changes in the Charter. He feels that there should be a definite provision in the Charter for removal of members from all Boards for.'lack of attendance, and also that any appeals board should require a larger percentage of approval to grant variances from Ordinances created by other Boards. The next meeting will be June 11, 1980. The mee ting was adj ourne d at 8: 45 p. m. D. LedvinK, C'fairman B. Oring, R&cording Secretary
