the fire department entrance. Mr. Losee stated that he will
make those changes at the time of the submittal to the Building

for the addition of the brick.

width at the entrances for the fire department. Mr. Losee

back up of traffic in the morning and will also make it easier for
the snowplowing. The south end of the lot will be used to store
the snow just past the proposed parking stalls.
Chairman De Angelis asked if two 45' entrance/exits would have the
same effect. The petitioner asked if a catch basin was installed
to allow for the clean out of the culvert, would this be an
acceptable solution. Chairman De Angelis felt that a slotted
drain or a man hole that would allow for this area to be cleaned
would be a better solution. Mr. Schultz stated that a man hole
would be acceptable to him. Chairman De Angelis indicated that

lot line on the west side of the northern lot to the minimum
setback requirements of 15'. This would create a "L" shaped land
division rather than a Flag lot land division as proposed. The
road width would be slightly less than the required width of llO',
but Chairman De Angelis felt that the commission could grant the
10% variance allowing the difference.
Mr. Stockton is planning on purchasing the whole outlot. Director
Sadowski indicated that Mr. Stockton would have to grant a sewer
easement across this piece of the property. Mr. Stockton
indicated he would be willing to grant the sewer easement.

it does.
Chairman De Angelis would like to have the staff research whether
this Honey Locust would be appropriate.

regarding the storage. Director Sadowski indicated that it should
only be a reprieve. Chairman De Angelis asked what will be done
with the north driveway. Mr. Schreib stated that the amount
remaining after the addition will be hard surfaced. After further
discussion, it was decided that the petitioner has until June 1,

During the orientation, the petitioners can sit in but can not
