fence will be replaced with an 8 foot high solid wood fence. Lighting will be full cutoff and meet code along the west property line which abuts residents. The lighting variance is for a hot spot along Lorain Road. Signage is needed as each brand wants their own recognition on the building and they are only 6 feet over total square footage allowed for the site. Ms. Wenger said the lot is very narrow and challenging to develop. The majority of the site is pavement which is being decreased with additional landscaping proposed at the site. The lighting variance is due to a light hot spot along Lorain. The development and flow of the site is a welcomed improvement. Mr. Martin said there is one area which is at 17 fc along the front, but the residential area meets code. Board members had no objections to the request and felt the wall signs fit the aesthetics of the new building.
