<br />Lange Bros. <br /> <br />-2- <br /> <br />April 8. 1975 <br /> <br />Planninq Commission Consideration (1-21-75): <br /> <br />Mr. Louis Lange appeared to represent the petitioner. He <br />stated that the areas he was told were in violation of the ordinance <br />were not parking areas and that it seemed inconsistent to prohibit <br />parking in front of buildings when it was possible to park in the <br />street. He further stated that he does not want to tear out <br />the concrete pads because they are 611 thick and reinforced with <br />steel rods. <br /> <br />Concern was expressed that the parking next to the building <br />would not be able to be used because it would prevent trucks <br />from backing up to the loading doors. <br /> <br />Daniels suggested that at a minimum the illegal areas should <br />be separated from the other concrete areas by curbing. metal posts <br />and chains. He also asked if Mr. Lange would be willing to put <br />a parking lot behind the building rather that have parking in the <br />four locations shown on the plan, if he would not have to remove <br />the concrete in front. <br /> <br />Mr. Lange replied that he would not want to put a parking lot <br />behind the building because it would only have to be torn out <br />when the building was expanded. <br /> <br />Parham stated her concern that the discussion and recommendation <br />on the landscape and plot plan be tied closely to that on the <br />variance. <br /> <br />Partyka suggested that the concrete areas in front be curbed <br />and have potted plants placed in them. <br /> <br />Mr. Lange suggested sculpture as an alternative. <br /> <br />Planninq Commission Recommendation (1-21-75): <br /> <br />Motion by Partyka, seconded by Daniels, to recommend that <br />VN-138 be denied and that no front yard parking be allowed. <br /> <br />Motion carried, 4-0 <br /> <br />Motion by Partyka, seconded by Daniels, to recommend revisions <br />
