'!he City Council retains the right to require the installation of additional parking in accordance with all or part of the expansion plan whenever in its j\.ldgmant it has been dem:>n- strated that additional parking is needed. All parking shall take place on surfaces paved with blacktop or concrete am all cw:bin;J shall be of p:>rtlam cement concrete. In order to preserve on-street parking for the surrourrling residential area, the city reserves the right to restrict parking in front of surrourrling residential property. Mrs. Schuman said the rnnnber of spaces needed came fran the applicant, but the Plan Camnission felt it was necessa:ry to show the ability to provide re- quired parking on the site. Mr. SchOCllter felt Young Israel's est.i1nate of needed parking should be accepted, which will also provide the maximum trans- itional yard, larrlscapin;J am bufferin;Ji however, Council should reserve the right to canpel Young Israel to add parking spaces should it be necessary to do so. Mr. Price asked what the first sentence meant, am Mr. Goldman said YotlnJ Israel in:licated it needs few parking spaces, but provided more spaces on the site plan to meet Code d.en1anjs. He said six on-street spaces were available in front of the buildin;J in addition to the minimum on the proper- ty, thus increasin;J the larrlscape buffer. Mrs. Schuman pointed out if more spaces are needed, then Young Israel carmot meet transitional yard require- ments. Mr. Wagner asked about the 28 spaces specified in the Plan Camnission con::titions, am Mr. Goldman said that was a c:x:rnprc:mise also. In response to Mr. Price, Mr. Goldman said if fewer parking spaces are required by the City, there will be more green space. Resporrling to Mr. Price, Mr. zimbalist said about 10 parking spaces are used dailYi 15 would give a comfortable margin. He said they would be happy with more green space on the site, am will do everything possible to make the site attractive with the least iIIpact on the neighbors.
