Perla moved to take the Skating Rink Proposal out of com- mittee, seconded by J. Roberts, and Lmanimously approved. Mr. Butkiewitz explained that the size of the building had been reduced from 28,200 sq. ft. to 24,000 sq. ft. and that all the recommendations of the Architectural Board of Review had been included in the plans. Dr. Bernstein, the awner, is requesting that the Commission approved a reduced parking area (to contain about 20.0 spaces in the front lot) with the provision that if it is necessary at a later date, the remaining parking area would be added. It is their conten- tion that based on surveys of other rinks 200 spaces would be sufficient. Since this would require a vari,ance from the Board of Zoning Appeals and was not a matter for the Planning Commission, he withdrew his request.
