Malone seconded the motion, which was unanimously approved. <br />IV. OLD BUSINESS: <br />1. Red Lobster Restaurant; 25615 Brookpark Road: (WRD # 4) <br />Proposal consists of landscaping alterations. <br />Ms. Wenger reviewed that the proposal consisted of an amendment to approved landscape <br />plans. Red Lobster installed landscaping that did not conform to the approved plans and their <br />request for a minor change was denied; therefore, they are before the Commission for <br />recommendations and approval. <br />Mr. Keen with Darden Restaurant and Mr. Sinnette the landscaper, addressed the <br />commission. Mr. Sinnette reviewed the changes that were made in the field. He noted that <br />all the changes made were to enhance the appearance of the site it was never their intent to <br />weaken the design of the site. <br />Mr. Malone said that from pre-submission to instillation the applicants have put a lot of <br />attention into the landscaping and he thanked them for their efforts and attention to details. <br />However due to the multitude of changes that were incorporated without approval, the minor <br />change was denied. Although there are significant changes he does not believe the changes <br />made affect the overall aesthetics of the proposal. <br />M. Mahoney moved to approve the proposal for Red Lobster Restaurant of 25615 <br />Brookpark Road, which consists of landscaping alterations as submitted in the as built <br />plans marked received November 10, 2006. R. Bohlmann seconded the motion which <br />was unanimously approved. <br />2.
