?... the property to Silverdale Road. The third section of the document describes the procedure for amending, terminating or modifying the restriction. City Council must approve any change by majority vote and there is a two weelc notice provision to surrounding property owners. Mr. DiFranco said a boundary survey is required and stormwater management is not required due to the minimal amount of land being disturbed. Complete paving and continuous curbing is proposed. Mr. O'Malley advised that the deed restriction was not before the commission however they should review the traffic pattern, site circulation and whether or not the drive would have a negative impact on the street. Mr. Fabo presented a color sample sheet which showed the colors of the materials to be used. Ms. Wenger said although the submittal identifies the materials it doesn't call out the colors which is required. Mr. Fabo said the proposed driveway to Silverdale is a requirement of the proposed tenant. It lines up with the west neighbor's driveway to ensure vehicular headlights won't shine into neighboring windows. The new driveway will be exit only and the front was redesigned with one ingress/egress drive. Interior parlcing and traffic patterns were redesigned for safer circulation. Landscaping throughout the site will be improved and brickscape added along Lorain. An exit only sign will be added to the northwest driveway as well as pavement painted exit only signs. The building's existing brick is in good condition, changes to the building include reinoving the green mansard canopy and replacing it with a more contemporary design using wood pattern Nichiha panels and an EIFS panel for the tenant's wall sign. The color palette chosen will work well with the tan briclc. To minimize the visibility of the east elevation dense landscaping will be added to soften the appearance. Ms. Walker said she liked tlie proposed landscaping. Mr. Bohlmann asked if the fence along the baclc of Arby's would be addressed and Mr. Fabo said they believe the fence belonged to Arby's. Mr. Bohlmann and Ms. Nader felt the extended southwest curbing at the Lorain entrance should be rounded and shortened so it doesn't become a maintenance issue. Mr. Bohlmann asked if the existing lighting would be reused and Mr. Fabo said both the building and site lighting will be new. Mr. Bohlmann said detailed cut sheets for lighting needed to be submitted. Mr. Bohlmann said there was quite an opposition to a curb cut from this site onto Silverdale in 1990 and he believes that if the drive is installed it will become a cut through and asked if a study should be conducted. Mr. Fabo said their proposed tenant is concerned for the safety of the vehicles exiting the site due to the heavy traffic along Lorain. Ms. Wenger said the location was included in a recent NOACA traffic study due to the configuration and congestion of the area. She feels the driveway would lessen the adverse impact to the area as vehicles could exit the site to gain access to the Lorain/Silverdale traffic light safely. Mr. Bohlmann questioned the fence height and style and said the dumpster enclosure should be vinyl fencing including the gates to match the proposed fence. Ms. Walker said the roclc bed along the northwest is not needed and should be replaced with landscaping. Ms. Nader said along the east elevation the coping stops half way. Mr. Fabo said they would replace all coping which needs to be replaced along the front and the landscaping is being used to buffer the view along the east elevation. Ms. Nader said the recessed enclosure along the baclc of the building if used should have doors of some type and remain closed. She aslced how deliveries would be made and Mr. Fabo said all delivery vehicles would enter the site from Lorain Road pull to the back of the building and load through a single man door. Mr. Bohlmann questioned if inventory would be brought to the store and Mr. Fabo 2
