Planner Bergly explained the initial approval for the Bingo Hall conversion fram a lumberyard was granted in 1986. He advised at that time the site plan review . included determining the number of parking spaces, landscaping plan development and lighting. Bergly.advised at this time the applicant is proposing a 14 ft. X 80 ft. building addition to accommodate a nonsmoking area for bingo players. He.noted the parking which is=ently located in the area of the proposed addition will be relocated to the northerly area of the site. The Planner advised the northwest =rner of the site is =entlya gravel surface and City code requires parking areas be hard-surfaced; the applicant should be required to install a hard-surface in this area of the site, whether or not approval is granted for the building addition. Bergly stated the Planning Commission recornmen:ied denial of the request, based on 1. The =ent status of the lexington/Fox business study area, which is now under a development moratoritnn and the expansion does not meet the proposed guidelines for rezoning of this area; and, 2. Due to the lack of ccnnplete d=urnentation sutmitted by applicant for site plan review. The Planner stated Commission suggested the applicant may explore the possibility of =eating an interior area for nonsmokers, which would be separated fram the main area by use of glass walls, and may be less expensive than a hlilding addition. Councilmember Hansen stated opposition to expanding the facility at this time and . expressed =ncern regarding the appearance of the hlilding and site in general. . She suggested the applicant be required to install a hard-surfaced parking area and perform a general upgrade of the existing hlildings on site. Hansen recalled she contacted city. staff on several occasions during the last few years to have the mechanical equipment on this site screened.
