The lighting height will not be higher than 26 feet, from the top of the light to the bottom of the fixture or surface. The board would like to see a softer light used as the proposed lighting would only causes glare, so another type of light should be looked into. The loading zone to be located at the southwest elevation and will be 12 x 25 feet. The proposed entrance to be located on David Drive, and that the said entrance cut will accommodate a 3-lane drive. Mr. Grassa indicated that a residential 12-foot light could be used. Nlrs. O'Rourke asked about a sidewalk from the daycare to Lorain Road. Mr. Grassa indicated that there would be a sidewalk along the entrance drive. A conditional use permit will need to be resubmitted.
