<br />Mr. Stenzel the architect and Mr. Belington the attorney, each came forward to be sworn in and
<br />address the request. Mr. Conway advised that request #9 should read width not area and that
<br />request #6 was no longer required. Mr. Belington reviewed that Welcome House consisted of
<br />three existing homes located along Lorain Road and they would lilce to demolish one of the
<br />homes and construct a new home to the rear of the other homes to accommodate 10 handicap
<br />patients. The lots are commercially zoned however they are used as residential residences for
<br />inentally and physically handicap patients. They require variances for the residential type light
<br />fixtures and residential style curbs they propose to use. Due to the patients physical and mental
<br />challenges there are mobility issues which arise when using commercial curbing. The residential
<br />light posts match those already used on the site and will be located along the east side driveway
<br />and around the front circular driveway. They will not have full cut-offs but there will be
<br />commercial lights with full cut-offs along the west driveway so that there will be no light spilling
<br />over to the property to the west. The neighboring property to the west is an assisted living
<br />facility and the east property is a commercial office building. The .2 fc and .5 fc variances are
<br />for being below minimum light levels in the parking and drive area as well as the walkways.
<br />Again they are trying to maintain a. residential setting on the site. The 26 inch variance for light
<br />pole bases also relate to the lights being residential not commercial. Mr. Belington reviewed for
<br />the board members variance requests #'s 8& 9 pertaining to State licensing requirements for
