Chairman Maloney called all interested parties forward to review the request. Mr. Brian Zergott came forward, along with his neighbors, Mr. Piotrowski and Mr. Chinchilla, to be sworn in. Mr. Zergott explained they want to take down a structure that is in poor condition. He then referred to the photos he submitted. They want to remove a crumbling wooden structure that is between Debbie D's Bar and the garden ceiiter. Mr. Piotrowski asked for confirmation on the location of the structure. Mrs. Sergi pointed out to the neighbors where the current structure is and asked Mr. Zergott for confirmation that it is where the new structure would be erected. There was further discussion on the location of the structure and the surroundirig area. Mr. Piotrowski and Mr. Chinchilla looked over the photos. Mr. Piotrowski indicated he has proble:ms with water coming from the Zergott property. Mr. Maloney indicated the board cannot address th.ose issues. Mr. Zergott added that the Engineering Department is trying to come up with a program to address that. Mr. Zergott brought out plans and said he would like the board to be aware of where everything is going to be. He explained the structure is an open air house but when weather gets bad, tarps come down to close it up. The board reviewed the plans and photos. Mr. Kremzar asked if the posts would be on his property. Mr. Zergott indicated they will be inside his property line. Mr. Maloney asked if hE; would have drainage coming off there to control the water. Mr. Zergott said that was correct. Mr. Kelly asked about the material being used for the covering. Mr. Zergott explained they will use a heavier ca.nvas on the back. Mrs. Sergi asked if that is away from the Lorain Rd. side. Mr. Zergott indicated t.hat is correct. He added the front will have a different material and sliding doors so people can enter. Nothing will face Lorain Rd, He said they also have 18' tall pines between his business and the bar. J.
