Dear Mayor and Council Members:
This is with reference to_tbe petition of Mr.William Rench for a permit
to build one seven -car private parking lot in conjunction with a seven
unit apartment building. y;
The site is located on the east side of P' ierce Street between St.Antbony
-and Shields Avenues. "The legal description of the property is the north
one -half of Lot 21.and all -..of Lot,22, Block 3, Milham Park Addition.
Section 60.23,.paragraph (4), subsection (1) of the Legislative Code pro-
_ vides tbat "Plans showing the layout and design of vehicular parking places
with a capacity of less than ten (10) motor vehicles shall be approved by.
the Traffic Engineer and the Planning Director prior to the issuance of
any building or works ..permit necessary. .
The parking layout has been approved by the City Traffic Engineer.
The Board of Zoning and the Planning Director.have adopted certain density
and building coverage standards for apartment projects. Based on these
standards, the proposed project exceeds the building coverage.requirements
by 12 per cent and the maximum density by-40 per cent.
For this reason, I find it impossible to approve this project.
Respectfully submitted,
