Dear Madam:
This is in the matter of Mark Z. Jones' 1) appeal -to waive the 8 foot re-
quired side yard buffer, 2) appeal to waive the restrictions per
to acces 9a pybT'1�"aiiev, and 3) app cation for a Aermi u- ft-large
an existing Parkin lot on property_ located -on the south side of Mar land
Y
Avenue between Mendota and Forest Streets. The property is.describ " as
Lot 5 and the east 10 feet of Lot 6, Block 2, Ebstville 8eighstst ''Addition.
The zoning is commercial.
- ° The site is developed with a food market and parking lot.
Harkin_ lot was m"a"ted b the Cites Coun i in 1952.. Ttii
=ooa ®arxez. ana ap roxlmately 44 cars on the east side, At that time, the
City Council denied the applicant access o and from'the platted alley ad-
joining said parking lots. The applicant has since that time enlar ed his
buiidin thereby eliminating or anal ar a o to the west. Field
investigation discloses that the enlarged parking lot is rea y constructed,
is properly surfaced and fenced with no access to the alley. However, the
8 foot screen buffer is not provided and the applicant is requesting that
this buffer be eliminated. Field investigation further discloses that the
deliveries to the food market are being handled from the public alley.
North and-across Maryland Avenue are various commercial uses; east and ad-
joining the parking lot is a 7 unit apartment building recently constructed;
south and across the public alley are single - family residences that front on
Rose Avenue; west and adjoining the parking lot is the food market building
The Traffic Engineer has approved the traffic relationship to Maryland Avenue
inasmuch as no further drive'vays are proposed. However, he is not in favor
of providing access to the public alley as requested. The plans meet the
standards for this type of facility except for the required 8 foot screen
buffer along the east property line. The Board is of the opinion that the
8 foot screen buffer should be provided between the parking lot and the ado
joining apartment building, and also that access to the public alley should
be prohibited because it will have a detrimental effect upon the single - family
residences across the alley and the present loading and unloading from the
public alley is undesirable.
In consideration of the above mentioned factors, the Board of Zoning recommends:
1) the denial of the appeal to waive the 8 foot required side yard screen
buffer; 2) the denial of the appeal to provide access to the public alley;
and 3) approval of the application for the enlarged parking lot subject to
providing the 8 foot screen planting buffer and providing final plans reflect-
ing the Council's action on this matter.

Relax Chapter 60.23 Sec. 5
para. d of the Legislative
Zoning code
Release of buffer zone
Chapter 64.03 para. i of
the Legislative Zoning Code.
The reason for this request is to waive the restriction on commer-
cial property which requires a buffer zone of 8 feet on parking lots.
Up until last year, the adjoining lot and 50 feet of my property
were vacant. For sometime, preceding this, the owner of the adjoining
property had contacted me a number of times about purchasing the east
portion of my ground which was not used for a parking lot but I
finnally turned him down because I told him that I was going to build
an addition to my existing supermarket and would need this ground for
additional parking, so'he was well aware of what this would be used
for before he started construe-Ung his building.
At Che time the permit was granted for the adjoining parking lot,
I thought it also covered this 50f eet which we did not surface at
this time bent F now find that I was incorrect in this.
In view of the fact that this entire block has always been zoned
commercial and that the owner of the proposed building knew that a
parking lot was to be built there, I request that this buffer re-
striction be waived.

The Honorable Mayor and City Council
c/o City Clerk
Roam 386, City Hall and Court House
Gentlemen:
Attached is a request for increasing an existing r
parking lot and it is also requested that we be
given permission to have access from the parking
lot to the existing alley.
At the time that the original permit for the park-
ing lot was granted in 1952, it was granted with the
provision that we would not have access to the alley,
but one of the big reasons that the neighbors game fo l
this objection was that the alley was in very poor
condition and would not stand additional traffic that
would come from this parking lot and we agreed with this,
but since that time the alley has been paved, for which
I am naturally paying my share, but not receiving any
benefit therefrom.
Also, due to the heavy volume of traffic on Maryland
Avenue, if those using the parking lot so desire, could
go out from the alley, it would eliminate much congestion.
Also, in view of the fact that our half of the block
has always been zoned commercial, it seems to me as though
we should have normal use of this alley.

Yours truly,
Mark Z. Jone
