Council Minutes of 4/2/ZQ02 Councilman Miller noted that, quite a while ago, he had asked the Mayor if the school zone in that area could be extended to include that intersection. He was told that it was a work in progress. He wondered about the status of that. Mayor Musial said he believed that has been approved, but will get confirmation on it. Service Director Thomas said he did not have an answer, but he will find out and report to Council. Mr. Miller requested, if it has been approved, that moving the school zone signs be expedited. Service Director Thomas agreed. Janet Saringer, 23336 5toneybrook Drive: • She is concerned about Ordinance 2002-40 and asked if this was going to be higher or lower than the original pole and will there be health hazards for children and residents. It took us long time to get that park looking like it is today, and she would hate to think that there is any additional health risk. It's supposed to be a playground. Also, she is concerned about whether another service building will be constructed. President O'Grady noted that this is an issue of collocation. Mr. Limpert responded that this plan does conform with what was originally discussed when the original monopole was passed. It is going to be on the existing monopole, on the height that it was, when the original pole was planned, at the 120 foot mark. The material will be within the fenced area. Mrs. Kesler explained it is not an additional pole, but this antenna will be attached at the highest level of 120 feet. The original amenna is at 100 feet. Mr. Limpert noted there is a third unused location at the 80 foot level. By having this collocated on that pole, it eliminates the possibility of more poles, more facilities, more antetittas on top of buildings. It's going to be one place or the other, and this way it puts it in a place where it's for the common good. Mr. Gareau said the final location of the building will be presented to the Planning Commission and BZD Committee for approval. • Regarding Ruby Tuesday's, Mrs. 5aringer asked if they were going to have a liquor license, and Mr. Nashar answered yes. Mrs. Saringer asked if it conformed to the regulations regarding the proximity of a school. Mr. Nashar said it conforms to the state regulations. Law Director Dubellco explain, once constiudion begins, the state will be requved to notify any school or church located within 500 feet and the church or school can object then if they have grounds for objecting. There are different opportunities for different bodies to register objections based on different factors. With respect to a church or a school, as he understands it, and he spoke with an attorney down at the Division of Liquor Contraol, the church or school would have to demonstrate that having a liquor permit at that location would interfere with the processes of the school or the church. He was told that that is a pretty heavy burden to meet just for a restaurant with a liquor license. But that is the law, and they have an opportunity to object to the license. Mr. McKay said that he had been in contact with St. Richard's Church and they had no objections. Jacgi Templeton, 24054 Vincent Drive, the president of the North Olmsted Friends of the Library. She co-chaired the committee to pass the levy issue for the new library that was passed by the voters in November of 2000.
