Session 1911 February 9, 2004 fears negative impact on this space. Mr. Lieberman seconded the motion. Mayor Adams restated the motion and indicated that no further discussion is allowed. Mr. Wagner raised a point of information. He asked about maintenance of the paved property by the owner and wondered if the City would incur any expense. He was advised that if approved, the owner would assume this responsibility. Following a unanimous vote, the proposal was postponed. Mayor Adams asked if the City Manager would find out if this property were to be used, what guarantees were there against adverse possession of said property. Mr. Lieberman commented that it could happen. AGENDA ITEM #5 - 8324 Olive Conditional Use - Auto Repair Mr. Ollendorff agreed with the Plan Commission majority recommendation that approval be given to expand the vehicle accessory parts, installation of car stereo, and detailing business by adding automotive repair services. At least one neighboring business opposes while several others are in favor. All ordinance requirements are met and detrimental effects on the neighborhood will be avoided if conditions include the following: repair and installation services must take place inside the building; no noise or audio beyond the property lines; and overnight parking limited to six licensed vehicles. City Council may wish to add a limitation on hours of operation as has been done for some automobile related businesses, in order to avoid undue neighborhood disturbance at unreasonable times. Ms. Welsch questioned how noise will be dealt with, and whether or not there were six parking spaces behind the building while leaving the alley open for others to use. Mr. Sharpe said his understanding was that there were to be six parking spaces. Mr. Wagner asked if the only optional condition was limiting the hours of operation. He asked what their current hours of operation were, and he was advised by the City Manager that they could not open before 7 a.m. and needed to close by 8 p.m. He said there is no standard rule. Mr. Ollendorff said he raised the issue of limiting hours because the City Council had done so in the past. Alvah Levine, 8630 Delmar Boulevard, the architect for the tenant, said he could answer technical questions about the plans. There are two bays of a four bay, multi-tenant commercial building, with each tenant separated by a full-height partition. The partition is not being changed. Parking included is more than adequate to meet requirements. Parking behind the building is not visible from the street. The tenant's hours of operation are 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. While they do some work over extended hours, they do not serve customers at that time. Page 5
