Ms. Wenger said the property is unique due to being split zoned. The pie wedge along the rear area is zoned residential. The city engineer and forester have been involved to ensure the drainage ditch and vegetation is taken into consideration with this project. She supports the variance requests as the project enhances the site and provides abutting residents additional buffering. Ms. Rudolph questioned the proximity of the residential homes along the rear and Mr. Kluchin said the rear lots are deep. Mr. Sturgeon believed his mother's home to be within 40 feet off the site. Mr. Raig said he was not in favor of a mound and fence or having the fence continued along the west property line, he would prefer landscaping. Ms. Bellido said the proposal improves the site and buffers the residents therefore she has no obj ections to the request. Ms. Rudolph felt continued fencing of the southwest corner could be warranted but would let Council address that issue. Mr. Raig moved, seconded by Ms. I2udolph to grant the following vaa-iances to CMS 13-42: Kensington Court Apartments of 23307 Lorain Road: 1.
