held its 424th Regular Meeting and Public Hearings in the Livonia City Hall, 33000
Civic Center Drive, Livonia, Michigan.
Mr. Daniel R. Andrew, Chairman, called the Regular Meeting and Public Hearings to order
at 8:00 p.m. , with approximately 20 interested people in the audience.
Members Present: Herman Kluver Joseph Falk Judith Scurto
Sue Sobolewski Daniel R. Andrew Lee Morrow
Donald Vyhnalek Jerome Zimmer Donna Naidow
Messrs. John J. Nagy, City Planning Director; H G Shane, Assistant City Planning
Director; and Ralph H. Bakewell, Planner IV, were also present.
Mr. Andrew then informed the audience that if a petition on tonight's agenda involves
a rezoning request, this Commission only makes a recommendation to the City Council
tho in turn will then hold their own Public Hearing and decide the- question. If a
petition involvesa waiver use request, and the petition is denied by the Planning
Commission, the petitioner then has ten days in which to appeal for relief. Otherwise
the petition is terminated.
Mr. Falk, Secretary announced the first item on the agenda is Petition 81-11-2-25
by the Livonia Public Schools requesting waiver use approval to establish
office use within an existing building located on the north side of
Munger, west of Middlebelt Road in the Northeast 1/4 of Section 14.
Mr. Nagy: There is no correspondence in connection with this matter.
tan
Ron Campeau: I represent the Livonia Board of Education. We would like to use this
15221 Knolson facility for a teachers' union office.
Mr. Andrew: Is the permanent shed for the trash new?
Mr. Campeau: That is an existing part of the building and is attached to the building.
Mr. Andrew: The proposed new landscaping if it were to be installed by June 1, 1982,
will that be a problem?
Mr. Campeau: June 1 is no problem.
Mrs. Scurto: Do you intend to use that western driveway? In other words, people would
drive in the east and out the west.
Mr. Campeau: I assume so. It was used in the past. There is a concern among the area
residents as to teenagers meeting in the back parking lot. We thought of
a barrier on one of the parking entrances.
Mrs. Scurto: I would like to see a "no right' turn" coming out of either driveway.
lieMr. Campeau: That is no problem.
Mr. Zimmer: For my clarification you will have "no right turn" at both driveways.
4.
7602
Mr. Campeau: Yes. The eastern driveway is narrow. If a delivery truck were to
have to get to theloading dock eastern driveway might not be wide enough.
I:
Mr. Zimmer: How many people will be at this operation and what are the hours of
operation?
Mr. Campeau: Our hours are from 9 to 5. The staff will consist of two professional
employees, two secretaries and myself. I will be on an irregular basis.
Mr. Andrew: Will there by any night meetings?
Mr. Campeau: There will be a committee meeting, board of directors (about 50) and
an organizational meeting (about 75) about once a month. The meetings
will be no later than 6 p.m.
Mr. Falk: What is the size of your membership?
Mr. Campeau: About 1,125.
Mr. Falk: Do you have a general membership meeting?
Mr. Campeau: This facility could not hold one. We would use one of the high schools.
Mr. Zimmer: The meeting once a month is a meeting of an elected group. They
represent certain portions of this total membership.
Mr. Campeau: That is correct. Each elementary school has one representative, junior
high has three representatives, and high schools have seven representatives.
110 4 Mr. Andrew: Will the sign be illuminated?
Mr. Campeau: I don't believe so. We haven't given it any thought. It probably will
have a wooden cover of shingles.
Mr. Andrew: What is the square footage of the sign shown on the plan and does it
meet the ordinance?
xlr. Nagy: The plan only shows a sign location. There are two existing posts
there now. They are indicating location of sign and the intended use
of the existing posts.
Mr. Vyhnalek: Will there be any change in the parking lot?
Mr. Campeau: We will restripe the lines.
Mr. Vyhnalek: Will there by any improvement?
Mr. Campeau: There will be eventual improvement, some kind of resurfacing at the
back part. It holds water.
Mr. Vyhnalek: Will the stripes be put in the spring the same time as the shrubs?
Mr. Campeau: Yes.
4 Mr. Andrew: Is there anyone in the audinece wishing to be heard on this matter?
Chas.Little: We missed the first meeting but we sent a letter. Could this change
29641 Munger someday to a medical center?
Mr. _Andrew: The zoning is P.S. Medical suites would be a permitted use. If they
7603
wanted to put in a catering business, they would have to come back to
us for a change of zoning. As long as the use stays within the uses
10 of the P.S. , they do not have to come back as long as there is no
architectural change.
Mr. Little: Doctors and lawyers could go in. Our road is a gravel road.
Mr. Andrew: This new use is a much less usage than the former school.
Mr. Campeau: There are only four to five of us during normal working hours.
Edward Waldo: What is this going to do to our property?
29521 Munger
Mr. Andrew: In my opinion nothing. There will be an upgrading of landscpaing and
the parking lot. This will be an improvement to the area.
Mr. Waldo: The school board does what it pleases. We don't need 80 cars at one
time. We don't need all the dust on Munger.
Mr. Little: I think it is a good idea to have a "no right turn" (exiting cars
then would be going onto Middlebelt instead of west to Six) .
There was no one else present wishing to be heard regarding this petition.
Mr. Andrew, Chairman, declared the public hearing on this item closed.
On a motion duly made by Mr. Zimmer, seconded by Mr. Vyhnalek, and unanimously adopted,
: it was
#12-212-81 RESOLVED that, pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held on December 15,
1981 on Petition 81-11-2-25 as submitted by the Livonia Public Schools

Ire
(2) The site has the capacity to support the intended use.
(3) The proposed use is compatible with surrounding established uses
of the area.
• - 7604
(4) The proposed use presents a viable alternative use to that of
the former educational use of the building exits.
4
FURTHER RESOLVED that, notice of the above Public Hearing was sent
to property owners within 500 feet, petitioner and City Departments
as listed in the Proof of Service.
Mr. Andrew, Chairman, declared the motion is carried and the foregoing resolution
adopted.
Mr. Falk announced the next item on the agenda is Petition 81-12-2-26 by Kenneth Soble
for Drug Land, Inc. , requesting waiver use approval to utilize an SDD Liquor
License within a building proposed to be constructed on the northwest corner
of Middlebelt Road and Clarita in the Northeast 1/4 of Section 11.
Mr. Havis:, I am representing Mr. Soble. He has been in business for 22 years in the
24800 North- City of Livonia. He is presently a pharmacist at the shopping center
western High- at Seven and Middlebelt. It is difficult to work with this site. The
way size of the building has been dictated by Mr. Soble's complete needs.
I have made several revised site plans. I have brought some this evening.
I did not have time to put this on final paper. We are planning to
screen the dumpster with board and battan. The roof top units would
not be screened on three sides. If a screen is required on the west we
can screen that. We are going to light this parking lot from our own
building. There will be no freestanding pole lights in the parking lot.
As far as the landscaping we added additional landscaping by eliminating
parking spots. We will have 15 feet of greenbelt off Middlebelt. We did
revise the plan thereby eliminating 5 parking spots. We are down to 51
I: spots. We are down to 51 spots instead of 56. We dressed up Clarita
and Middlebelt. We have made our entrances more attractive with landscaping
We are facing cars to Clarita and not the building. We picked up a
5 foot strip for greenbelt purposes.
Mr. Falk: What about the question as to bricking the building?
Mr. Havis: The question was raised about brick on the north and west. We are right
on the north property line. We have no control over that property.
Someone could come in tomorrow and build right up against the brick.
We do not know the future of that lot. If we did, and we knew it would
not be built on for 10 or 15 years, then brick would be fine. We thought
of decorative scored block. They come in 8' x 8' squares. The same
treatment would be given to the west. I could talk my client into it
if we do not have a choice. The new decorative scored block is very nice.
Mr. Falk: I feel brick should be put on the west side. I agree with what you say
about the north side. Is 5 feet of greenbelt all we could get. A statement
was made in the past about making the building smaller. I have heard no
mention of that this evening.
Mr. Zimmer: Will there be a wall?
Mr. Nagy: A solid masonry wall is required along the west property line only.
Mr. Morrow: Is a 5 foot wide greenbelt too narrow to berm? Berming could screen
f the cars.
Mr. Nagy: It is not enough. Screening will have to be done through plant foliage.
Mr. Andrew: The parking on the south side conforms to the new ordinance.
-k
7605
Mr. Nagy: Yes. -
i Mr. Andrew: How do you plan to screen dumpster?
le
Mr. Havis: We would screen it on the west by the protective screen wall with a
decorative wooden type of battan and board screen.
Mr. Andrew: A truck will enter dumpster from the east and pick up trash?
Mr. Havis: We will have to use a side load truck.
Mr. Andrew: I would like to see the dumpster screened on three sides and I would
be inclined to suggest that we continue the use of the same material
as the screening wall.
Mr. Havis: If on the south side the screening got knocked over, it could be removed
easier if it was wooden screening.
Mr. Andrew: In my experience when it is wooden and removed it is never put back.
Mr. Havis: That will cause us no problem.
Mr. Andrew: The decorative block that is being discussed is that what is presently
at the building on the northeast corner of Levan and Schoolcraft.
Mr. Nagy: Those are tile blocks.
10 Mr. Havis: Those were 16" x 8" in size. We are using 8 x 8 inch squares.
Mr. Vyhnalek: Will you use steel posts at the dumpster?
Mr. Havis: Yes, 4" x 4" posts.
Mr.Vyhnalek: Middlebelt is a Wayne County Road. Do we have correspondence from them?
Mr. Nagy: No correspondence back. It usually takes four to six weeks for the
County to respond. He has no alternative but to comply to county
requirements.
Mr. Vyhnalek: Five feet is better than three. I like the amount of area to be
landscaped.
Mr. Andrew: Does the sign location conform?
Mr. Nagy: Yes.
Mr. Andrew: Do you plan to have a continous illuminated pylon sign?
Mr. Havis: I cannot answer that. That is too premature.
Mr. Vhynalek: What about a transformer pad? •
Mr. Havis: Yes. I might have to take one car out of the 51. The location is
unknown. We are screening that in the same material as the dumpster.
Mr. Andrew: Have you had some discussion with Detroit Edison?
Mr. Havis: It is a matter of us relocating the poles out of the way of building.
7606
Mr. Andrew: There is no easement involved? •
Mr. Havis: No.
I
Mr. Falk: Do we have clarification from the law department on the 10001 separation?
Mr. Nagy: Council has jurisdiction to waive 1,000 foot separation requirement.
Mr. Falk: As far as the old drugstore after he moves out and applies for a new
SDD there could be two SDD licenses in this general area.
Mr. Nagy: Yes.
Mr. Andrew: What about screening of air conditioning on roof?
Mr. Havis: May I approach you with these plans?
Mr. Andrew: What will be the material on the roof?
Mr. Havis: All the screening will be consistent.
Mrs.K.Vogel: We own a home at 29435 Clarita and an empty lot next door.
27200 Edge- We face this lot. Will there be a greenbelt just on Middlebelt or on
more Clarita.
Mr. Andrew: There will be a 15 foot greenbelt on Middlebelt and deeper greenbelt
at entrances. There will be a green at the corner of Middlebelt and
Clarita and 5 feet along Clarita.
lo: Mrs. Vogel: We are opposed to an exit on a residential street. We will be able
to see cars coming out of the parking lot while sitting in the living
room.
Mrs. Goula: I represent my brother. If there is an exit on Clarita the traffic
29725 Clarita would be bad on a residential street. The residents are against the
exit on Clarita. My brother wants to build a home on his property and
now all he will see is cars.
Mrs. Vogel: The neighborhood has deterioated enough.
Mr. Morrow: Do you live at this home?
Mrs. Vogel: We did but we moved to a bigger home. We rent it out until my parents
move back into it.
Mr. Morrow: He has made a good attempt to come up with a tasteful commercial develop-
ment. Commercial is going in there as the property is zoned commercial.
Our rule is to get a nice plan.
Mr. Andrew: We cannot change the zoning but we understand you are all against an
exit on a residential street. Does Art Van have access onto a residential
street.
Mr. Nagy: No.
Mr. Vogel: The parking facing Clarita is not too desirable.
' 7607
Mr. Andrew: Mrs. Goula I note your brother's property is not directly across the
street. His property is not that close. We could eliminate the driveway
t4ooff Clarita.
.
Mr. Havis: I think it would be a bad plan to eliminate the driveway.
Mr. Andrew: What is the needed width of a greenbelt for any kind of berm?
Mr. Nagy: At least 15 feet.
Mr. Andrew: You are going to have primary entrance on the south side.
Mr. Havis: Yes, one. We will have one entrance in the rear and south.
Mr. Andrew: It would be impractical not to have a south entrance when 50% of the
parking is on that side.
Mr. Havis: At our other store we have one door in the rear and front but that
building is half the size of this one. This is an 80 foot wide store here.
Mrs. Scurto: Could you eliminate the south entrance and park up to the building, and
gain extra landscaping there.
Mr. Havis: I think the Fire Marshall would rather have a driveway near the building
than parked cars. We need that eouth entrance.
Mr. Falk: I note that 49 parking spots are required and 51 are provided. I think
we should table this. The site plan was given to us late. The people
i have some concern.
te Mr. Havis: We would not like to see this tabled. We are looking at other property.
Mr. Soble does not have the luxury of time on this property option.
We have come down several times. Compromises have been made. There is
no 100% perfect solution. This is a nice building. It will be landscaped
to the best of our abilities. We have time limits. We still have
public hearings before Council and Liquor Commission. We are running
out of alternatives. No one is opposed here to the building just the
landscaped area.
Mr. Falk: At the study, time was not mentioned as being a factor. I cannot be
swayed by time.
Mrs. Vogel: I have been a resident of Livonia for 33 years. Clarita would have
difficulty handling that traffic. The physical condition of Clarita
is terrible. There are huge ruts already.
K. Soble: Right now I am running my business at an unsightly shopping center. I
29493 W. 7 would like to move into a brand new building. I need the SDD to be
Mile Rd. transferred. I am a professional pharmacist. I am not a party store
owner. My hours will be 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. I currently have another
drugstore in Livonia at Eight Mile and Farmington, Baseline Drugs. I
own property in Redford also. •
(16W Mr. LawsoN; This is not all night traffic on Clarita. You could prohibit a right
/ 30600 Tele- turn. Due to the physical condition of Clarita there would be no
graph incentive to use Clarita.
7608
Mr. Zimmer: Will there be double occupancy in this building?
I Mr. Soble: No.
Mr. Zimmer: How will your check out counters be arranged?
3
Mr. Havis: We have not given that thought. We have not had the opportunity to
get into minute details. The main entrance will be on the side.
In the normal run of business if there are 10 people in the store
it is busy.
Mrs. Goula: I could get the residents to sign a petition stating no Clarita exit.
Mr. Zimmer: There are no commercial exits or entrances on Clarita on the west
side of Middlebelt, is that correct?
Mrs. Scurto: The road to the east of Middlebelt is that paved?
Mr. Nagy: Just to the entrance of shopping center which has ingress & egress to
Clarita.
