. . June 24, 1992 Plan Commission Meeting Minutes Page 2 be approved subject to all conditions of previous amendments to the conditional use permit, including a detailed landscaping plan and edging for drives and parking areas. Mr. Marsh stated that he would abstain from the voting. Ms. Ratner asked whether the existing street light, to be relocated, would be moved off the proposed parking space, but remain in the same area. Mr. Deutsch replied that it would. The Chairperson asked for comments from the public. Ruth Berman, 8640 West Kingsbury, stated that she uses the access that will be vacated by the City, for additional parking to her home on weekends. If the access is removed it will force her guests to park on the street. She further stated that the loss of the access will make it hard for her trash to be picked up. She further stated that she would like more landscaping to block the view of the proposed parking spaces that will back out onto the extension of West Kingsbury. Fred Rogerson, 8649 West Kingsbury, stated that he agrees with the statements made by Mrs. Berman. He also wanted to know why the existing employee parking is not sufficient. Ms. Kreishman stated that the parking lot being used now will be replaced by the proposed nursing home development under Conditional Use Permit #295. No more comments were made by members of the public and the public hearing portion of the proceedings was closed. Ms. Kreishman stated that, at first, she was opposed to the parking that backed out onto the extension of West Kingsbury, but feels the plan submitted is acceptable. She also stated that, even though several existing trees on the lot will be "saved" for future landscaping under the submitted plan, it has been her experience that existing landscaping often does not survive after construction. Therefore she wants to add a condition that insures replacement of any landscaping that may die in the future. Mr. Kendall moved that the Plan Commission recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit Amendment subject to the following conditions: 1. All the conditions of previous amendments to Conditional Use Permit #241A are incorporated herein. 2. Any existing landscaping that is to remain or future landscaping approved under the plan submitted to the Director of Planning, shall be replaced if it shall thereafter die. The motion was seconded by Ms. Ratner and passed by a vote of 3 - 0, with two abstentions by Mr. Marsh and Mr. Safe. m-6-24.plc
