<br />Page 8 <br /> <br />Mr. Bill Pothen, representing his mother who lives at 1125 <br />Garden, asked why the driveways for the parking lot were on <br />Garden rather than Lexington, and also why the parking lot is <br />located so close to his mother's lot. Reverend Powell indicated <br />that it was more difficult to get out on Lexington Avenue, and <br />felt it would be safer to have the driveways onto Garden. <br /> <br />Mr. pothen indicated the architecture of the building was pretty <br />good. He felt that Garden Avenue was a good place to stop the <br />commercial zone, and that this lot should remain for residential. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />Berry moved, DeBenedet seconded that Northwestern District of the <br />Christian Missionary Alliance Church application for amendment to <br />the Comprehensive Plan at 1813 Lexington Avenue be approved. <br /> <br />Mrs. Johnson indicated she could not support the request because <br />it is against the policy of the City to avoid expanding the <br />commercial zoning on Lexington Avenue. <br /> <br />Mrs. Dressler agreed, and indicated the City has previously <br />denied an application for an attorney's office across Lexington <br />Avenue. <br /> <br />Roll Call, Ayes: Berry and DeBenedet. <br /> <br />Nays: Johnson, Dressler and Moeller. <br /> <br />Other Business <br /> <br />Mr. DeBenedet indicated there were a number of items he would <br />like to have the Commission discuss, such as the number of <br />parking spaces required for various uses, parking setbacks and <br />other areas where variances are frequently requested. <br /> <br />Mr. North suggested each Commission member think about areas of <br />particular concern, and a list could be established at the next <br />meeting. <br /> <br />Adjournment <br /> <br />Berry moved, Johnson seconded that the meeting be adjourned at <br />10:45 p.m. <br /> <br />Roll Call, Ayes: Berry, Dressler, Johnson, DeBenedet and <br />Moeller. <br /> <br />Nays: None. <br />
