Council Minutes of 05 -07 -2014 that the city has those signs over the lanes. The city can erect a pole on the side of the road with signage or the city can mark the lanes. The city will probably paint arrows on the street to mark the lanes. The cost of painting arrows will more than likely be more reasonable than erecting signs on the side of the road.

The motion was seconded by Councilwoman Williamson, and the committee voted 3- 0 to recommend approval of Ordinance 2014 -28 to Council.

The proposal consists of expanding and reconfiguring the parking lot and lighting and making landscaping improvements. Chambers Funeral Home has shown the need for additional parking and access. Pavement will be extended to the east of the existing parking area and will be internally connected. A right - in/right -out only drive is proposed for Stearns Road. Some trees to the rear of the property will also be removed. Variances were granted for side and rear yard setbacks. Since the Planning and Design Commission reviewed the project, a lot consolidation plat has been submitted and approved. Discussions centered around sound barriers on Stearns Road and safety issues with the new driveway. But, all present acknowledged how positive the project would be for Lorain and Stearns Roads.
