The Commission had a number of <br />recommendations and suggestions for improvements to the building and to alleviate property <br />maintenance violations. The applicant was asked to appear before the Commission with a plan <br />no later than March 23. Since the applicant's January appearance before the Commission <br />meeting, no contact had been made with staff regarding the project. The applicant's attorney has <br />requested a postponement of the matter for 60 days. <br />Mr. O'Malley recommended the commission allow the attorney the opportunity to be involved in <br />the matter. It is his hope that Mr. Kacenjar will lead his client into complying with property <br />maintenance issues and commission concerns. He encouraged the commission to consider <br />allowing a reasonable amount of time for the attorney to work with his client. Mr. Kacenjar said <br />he received the minutes of the last Planning & Design Commission meeting his client attended <br />and briefly viewed the site. His client is in the process of receiving quotes to replace the current <br />roof which is one of the issues. He is also working on removing the fencing or modifying it <br />some way to have a better visual impact. He would like to have the time to work with his client <br />to draft proper plans which include a site plan, landscape plan and other necessary plans. Mr. <br />Glyptis said that due to weather conditions he was unable to get companies out to give him <br />quotes. He aslced that the commission take that into consideration when allotting additional time. <br />Mr. Malone said that sixty days ago when the application first came before the commission the <br />commission was very clear as to what they would like to see and gave clear guidance as to what <br />was expected. He felt 30 days should be ample time tor the applicant to submit proper plans.
