The current shingles will be replaced with a gray slate shingle. There will be a total of 97 parking spaces, 5 of which will be land banked. The ingress and egress from Lorain Road will be straightened out and will be made wider. It has been agreed upon by the neighbors who live behind this building that a 6 foot vinyl fence with lattice work panel on the top will be installed along the north property line. There will be light poles added with zero light to the property line. There will be additional landscaping, and the plans are to save approximately 5 trees.
