Mr. Bougebrayel said there have <br />been no issues with accidents on the property. Discussion regarding the parking space <br />calculations. Mr. Raig asked if the spots would be marked or have physical barriers, Mr. Paul <br />said there will be no physical barrier between the paxking spots and Lorain Road. He added that a <br />barrier would be installed to prevent cars from driving into the neighboring parking lot since the <br />grade is different. Mr. Allain asked why the applicant did not apply to have the requirement for <br />additional spaces waived, Mr. Paul had not thought of that. Mr. Allain was concerned about the <br />parking spaces not being utilized properly and blocking traffic on Lorain Road. Mr. Bougebrayel <br />said the two new spaces would be used for employee parking. <br />Mr. Mackey believed the applicant tried to negotiate with their neighbors but were unsuccessful. <br />Mr. Papotto was not in favor of the parking as proposed but he appreciated the owner's <br />investment in the business. He thought the parlcing may function differently than shown. Mr. <br />Raig thought the business was not very busy and did not see an issue with employees parking in <br />the spots. He did not see an issue with the 10 foot setback since the neighboring property has a <br />parlcing lot extending to the property line. Mr. Allain believed patrons would park in the spots <br />matter what since is it paved. <br />Mr. Allain moved, seconded by Mr. Papotto, to approve the follovaing variance for 18- <br />12150; Sunoco; 28925 Lorain Road: <br />1.
