loolced at purchasing the vacant land to the east to provide additional parlcing. Mr. Chambers <br />indicated that the matter was loolced at but not feasible or realistic at this time. <br />Mr. Maloney read a letter from the homeowners association objecting to the curb cut. Mr. <br />Sabala said he was against the curb cut. When the snow is plowed the vehicles stacked along <br />their streets bloclc traffic flow and mailboxes. The proposed curb cut would add to traffic <br />congestion and would create traffic hazards. Since the widening of the road vehicles exiting the <br />neighborhood have to cross four lanes of traffic to travel east which is difficult. Mr. Christou <br />said that Chambers had been a good neighbor but the curb cut will add to the existing vehicle <br />problems within the neighborhood. He is concerned that lighting will affect his home as his <br />home is the first on the street. If pole lights are not allowed he would like to see all the light <br />poles in the area removed as well. Mr. Canley said that when the funeral home was first <br />proposed the residents were assured there would be no curb cut onto Pheasant Wallc and the <br />vehicles would not be stacked along the streets which takes place. He encouraged the <br />coininissioners to not allow the curb cut. Mr. Lasko said the lighting which was previously <br />approved can not be changed however the applicant has agreed to install a full cutoff fixture <br />which will alleviate lighting issues. <br />1VIr. Lasko moved, seconded by Mrs. Meredith, to recommend that the BZA grant a <br />variance to CMS09-03: Chambers Funeral Homes Inc of 29150 Lorain Road for a curb cut <br />within 100' of an intersection, which was unanimously, denied 0-7. <br />Mr. Lasko movecl, seconded by Mr. Malone, that based on the deletion of the proposed <br />curb cut onto Pheasants Walk and the new wall light installed being a full cutoff fixture <br />which complies with cocle or new plans using bollard lights being submitted, the plan is <br />appi•oved as amended which was unanimously approved 7-0. Mr. O'Malley advised the <br />applicant was not compelled to seek a variance for the curb cut if he withdraws his request. Mr. <br />Chambers said he would not seelc any variances. <br />COMMUI`1ICATIONS <br />Ms. Wenger requested replies from commissioners who would attend the upcoming audio/web <br />conference by February 18, 2009. <br />ADJOiJRN1VIENT <br />The meeting was adjoui-ned at 8:50 pm. <br />J J.
