Dear Madam:
This is in the matter of the Sherman Investment Company for 1) an appeal to waive
the 8 foot parking buffer requirement of Chapter 60.23, Sec. 5, Par. "d" of the
Legislative Zoning Code, and 2)' an application for a permit to install and operate
a 121 car parking lot on property located in tbe.'vicinity of Central and Western
Avenues. The property is described as Lot 5.Alock 4, Western Area Addition, also
all of vacated Central Avenue immediately adjoining Lots 1, 2, 3, Block 12, Elfelt
Bernheimer & Arnold's Addition, and all of Lot 3 and the E. 5 feet of Lot 2, Block 12,
Elfelt, Bernbeimer & Arnold's Addition. The zoning is commercial.
The site is presently vacant having been cleared by the Housing and Redevelopment
Authority a few years ago. The applicant proposes to develop this property with
a food market and off- street parking lot for 121 cars in accordance with the re-
quirements of the Housing & Redevelopment Authority. This is an "12 shaped tract
of-land having a frontage-on Western Avenue of 167.9 feet and extending to a depth
of 302 feet from Western Avenue resulting in a total area of approximately 79,782
square feet. South and adjoining is a filling station and the Ober Boy's Club
both fronting on Western Avenue; east °and adjoining is vacant land which is pro-
posed to be developed in accordance with the Housing & Redevelopment Authority's
requirements for multi - residential purposes; north and across a public alley are
various type residential uses fronting on Fuller Avenue; west and across Western
-Avenue are various type residences and scattered commercial developments. Because
of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority's requirements of a thirty -foot set back
of the store building from Western Avenue, the required eight -foot set back would
result in a loss of approximately 20 parking spaces., The Planning Board staff and
the Traffic Engineer have reviewed the plans and recommend approval subject to the
entire off - street loading and unloading facility being located within the applicant's
property, and that two 25 -foot driveways be provided to said area from the public alley.
The Board of Zoning considered this matter at their regular meeting on November 2,
1961, and recommend 1) the waiving of the 8 foot set back requirement from the east
property line, and 2)-the granting of the application for a 121 car parking lot on
the above described property. These recommendations are made subject to the appli-
cant meeting the following conditions: 1) that a five -foot basket -weave type
fence be constructed along the east property line, 2) that the building be set
back a distance of 22 feet from the north property line to permit the entire load-
ing and unloading facility to be located within the applicant's property and 3)
that two 25 -foot driveways be provided to said loading and unloading area from the
public alley. All of the above to be in accordance with the plans approved
November 2, 1961.
