Negotiations over the <br />portion of land needed from Water Tower Square delayed construction and approved plans <br />officially expired. The transaction was finally completed, and a lot split and consolidation was <br />approved and recorded. The project is substantially the same as previously approved with only <br />slight changes. While the zoning code has been updated, the required setbacks for this property <br />did not change. The applicant received variances from the BZBA for parking setback on the east, <br />north and west sides of the property. The applicant is proposing to enlarge the service enclosure <br />at the northwest corner of the site to provide enough space for trash, recycling and a small shed <br />for maintena.uce equipment. New landscaping is proposed in the drive through island and along <br />the east and north property lines, along with a low retaining wall to accommodate the grade <br />change. New equipment for the double drive through required additional variances for signage <br />that were also approved by the BZBA. Mr. DiFranco requested that the 48-inch underground <br />stormwater pipe be cleaned and inspected to see what its condition is. He asked that a written <br />report be submitted to the Engineering Department. Mr. Malone asked about the clouds on page <br />L-1, Mr. Ptacek stated that the clouds noted the plants that were changed from the former <br />submittal to comply with the new landscaping requirements.
