Boss Nor#hwest Corner of Garden Avenus and Lexington Avenue Rezoning from "R-1" to "8-3" PLANRlING C4NSIDERATIONS: 1. The proRerfiy in question is immediately north of a B-2 District, the norfherly portion of wh ich was original ly deve�loped fDr a retai l shoe sfore . Under normal conditions, one would anfiicipate the property ir� quest�on to be devel�p�d for some sort of transifiional use between the existing �ommercia[ area and the single family residential ereas to the north and west. Such transitional uses mighi• normally include an office building� clinic, mult��le dwe!ling, ar perhaps a garclen store. In this case, the proposed use i'��fhcit.df a�Bridgemari ' :. restaurant with 125 person seating capacityo We have reviewed the propose� sit� plan with the applicant on several occasior�s w.i:t�i. fhe intent of making ifi as good as possible should the application be approved, The site plan conforms with the Village re�ulations and would in our opinion, work c�ffectively as a restaurant site. There is a sign proposed on the site plan which does not meet the 3Q foot setback requirements. It would appear possible to relocate the sign in a conforming location. The question is one of whether or not the proposed �se would �ffective(y function as the transitional fur�ction suggested. �t would appear from the number of signatures obtained in the area, that a number of persons believe this to be true. 2. You will note by the sketch at the left that the structure is proposed to be located on the northerly part of the property. The land between the structure and the north prdperty line would be landscdped and would not be occupisd by parking or services. Access to the site is proposed away from the interssction of Garden and Larpent�ur avoiding any undue traffic problem. The applicant proposes a 5 foot high redwood fence around the property to the west and the north . 3. The applicant's development plan provides 44 parking spaces and conforms tn the ordinance requirement, except that a sign is praposed less than the 30 foot minimum distance required from the right-of-way.
