Chairman Gomersall called all interested parties forward, and reviewed the variances requested. Mr. Schrembeck the proposed owner and Mr. Wolf the owner of the property came forward to present their proposal. Mr. Gomersall indicated that there were quite a few variances being requested. He suggested that most of the items were preexisting and couldn't be changed. He questioned where the proposed parking in the rear would be placed. Mr. Schremback reviewed where he would want to place the future parking lot. Mr. Gomersall suggested that there could be a problem with the downspouts, as they were not hooked up to the sewer line. He requested Mr. Wolf indicate if he was correct that the downspouts released the water into the yard. Mr. Wolf indicated that, that was correct. Mr. Gomersall indicated that that could be a problem as the water ran off into the neighboring yards. He commented that the building department would be sending out the engineering department to take a look at the situation. Mr. Schrembeck questioned if the engineering department would come out now or when the driveway was put in place. Mr. Gomersall indicated that the engineering department would be sent out now, and advise the owner as to what would need to be done. He further commented that the downspouts would have no bearing on the requests this evening. Mr. Schrembeck questioned if the engineering department could require him to dig and connect to a storm sewer. Mr. Conway indicated that the engineering department could require the owner of the property to connect to a storm sewer, it would depend on the existing conditions, he suggested Mr. Schrembeck talk directly to the engineering department. He further reviewed that a property owner's water could not spill off onto a neighbor's property, it must be contained on his or her own property. 1VIr. Conway indicated that there were a few caveats with this proposal, Mr. Sctirembeck is coming into occupy an existing dwelling for himself and another person with no additional specks at this point and time. He commented that NIr. Schremback is not presently proposing to change the exterior of the building, but has indicated future plans for parking lots or additions or what ever it may be. He needs to understand that he may not be granted the variances required in the future, so Mr. Schrembeck should proceed cautiously and to make sure he understoocl what he was getting into. Mr. Schrembeck indicated he understood. Mr. Gomersall indicated that there was really nothing that could be done about the variances being needed and therefore he didn't see any reason to not grant the variances requested. He asked if there were any further questions. No further comments were made. - T. Kobema motioned to approve David Schrembeck of 31453 Lorain Road his request for variance (1123.12).
