<br />ROSEVILLE PLANNING COMMISSION <br /> <br />Paget 8 <br /> <br />Wednesday, April 4, 1990 <br /> <br />Scott responded that they would be coming from other apartments <br />in the area and that they are attracted to the phone and pop and <br />snacks offered at the service station. <br /> <br />Stokes pointed out that Mr. Alwan can also upgrade the business. <br /> <br />Berry pointed out that Carbones is not a large family restaurant <br />and she objected to the term upgrading people. Berry stated that <br />she hoped that there was no discrimination going on in the rental <br />of these units. <br /> <br />Goedeke questioned the location of the parking provided on the <br />site. Keel stated that Engineering has looked at the distances <br />available for parking but did not specifically analyze parking. <br />Jopke stated that there were 5-6 parking spaces available on the <br />north side of the building and 4-5 available on the west side of <br />the building. <br /> <br />Scott stated that he mis-stated his intent concerning upgrading. <br />Scott stated that what they are doing is upgrading the building <br />to attract people more respectful of others rights. <br /> <br />Johnson read the letter in opposition from the management of the <br />Palisades Apartments. <br /> <br />Bancroft stated that they were not aware until recently of this <br />hearing and requested that a decision be put off until more <br />people can be notified. Bancroft stated that he opposed the <br />proposal pointing out that it would become an attractive <br />nuisance. <br /> <br />Laura Alwan stated that the space has proper parking, especially <br />when a good portion of the users will be walk-in traffic. Alwan <br />stated that the pool tables were an extra but that this was not a <br />pool hall. Alwan testified that it would be a bright, open, <br />clean, nice atmosphere and would not be a hang out. The owners <br />would be on-site and kids would not be allowed to stand around. <br />Alwan said that they can't afford to have problems on the site <br />either and that they could consider requiring parental <br />supervision for kids under a certain age. <br /> <br />Johnson asked if this could just be a video store. Laura Alwan <br />responded that they hadn't really thought that out so she <br />couldn't respond. <br /> <br />Adel Alwan pointed out numerous other pool halls and video <br />arcades in the area. Alwan stated that he is attempting to <br />create a new image for this type of use and pointed out that it <br />would be a smoke free facility. <br />
