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,
who in turn will then hold their own Public Hearing and decide the question. If a
petition involves a waiver use request, and the petition is denied by the Planning
Commission, the petitioner then has ten days in which to appeal for relief.
Mrs. Scurto, Acting Secretary, announced the first item on the agenda is the Renaming
of Vassar Road located east of Middlebelt and north of Seven Mile Road in
the Southwest 1/4 of Section 1.
Mr. Nagy: We have a letter from petitioner (Mrs. Sharon DelGreco) requesting
the matter be withdrawn.
It
There was no one present wishing to be heard regarding this petition. Petitioner was
not present.
Mr. Andrew, Chairman, declared the public hearing on this item closed.
#3-34-82 RESOLVED that, pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held on March 16,
1982 on a petition to change the name of Vassar Road located east of
Middlebelt, north of Seven Mile Road in the Southwest 1/4 of Section 1,
and pursuant to a letter dated 3/12/82 from the petitioner, the City
Planning Commission does hereby approve the withdrawal of said petition
as submitted by the Building Manager of the Livonia Pavilion East.
Mr. Andrew, Chairman, declared the motion is carried and the foregoing resolution
adopted.
Mrs. Scurto announced the next item on the agenda is Petition 82-2-1-3 by James and
Kathryn McQuade to rezone property located on the east side of Farmington
Road between Pickford and Curtis in the Northwest 1/4 of Section 10, from
R-1 to P.S.
Mr. Nagy: We have a letter from Engineering dated February 23, 1982 by Gary
Clark indicating there are no storm sewers readily available.
The closest sewer is 350 feet north (Pickford) . We have a letter
from Raymond Heilig objecting.
The petitioner was not present.

-
Chas. Shaw: I was concerned about the drainage. We are north of this on Lots 209
t
18399 Westmore and 210. It is all down hill. We are 6 feet lower. It would probably
• run down to our property.
Mr. Andrew: There is an off site storm sewer required. That is a fairly costly item.
Mrs. Scurto: Do the McQuade's live in the area?
Mr. Shaw: Not that I know of.
Mr. Nagy: Their address as shown on the petition is Virginia.
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. Morrow, seconded by Mr. Zimmer, it was
#3-35-82 RESOLVED that, pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held on March 16,
1982 on Petition 82-2-1-3 as submitted by James and Kathryn McQuade requesting
to rezone property located on the east side of Farmington Road between Pick-
ford and Curtis in the Northwest 1/4 of Section 10, from R-1 to P.S. , the
City Planning Commission does hereby recommend to the City Council that
Petition 82-2-1-3 be denied for the following reasons:
(1) The proposed change of zoning is in conflict with the Future Land Use
Plan of the City of Livonia as adopted by the City Planning Commission.
It (2) The proposed change of zoning would provide for uses that are not
compatible to adjoining and established residential uses of the area.
(3) The proposed change of zoning is not a logical extension of office
zoning in the area as all adjoining zoning is of a single family
residential classification.
(4) There is already other vacant zoned office land available within
the general area of Farmington Road to satisfy any needs for future
office development.
(5) The proposed change of zoning would not promote the orderly growth
and development of the area in accordance with the Future Land Use
Plan but would tend to lead to the further conversion of residentially
zoned land to that of the office classification.
FURTHER RESOLVED that, notice of the above public hearing was published
in the official newspaper, the Livonia Observer, under date of 3/1/82
and notice of such hearing was sent to the Detroit Edison Company,
Chesapeake & Ohio Railway Company, Consumers Power Company and City
Departments as listed in the Proof of Service.

Mrs. Scurto, Acting Secretary, announced the next item on the agenda is Petition
t82-2-1-4 by Walter Pivetta to rezone property located west of Inkster
Road, south of the I-96 Freeway, in the Northeast 1/4 of Section 25,
from M-1 to M-2.
Mr. Nagy: We have a letter dated Frebruary 23, 1982 from Engineering stating
the legal description meets with their approval. We have a letter
from Daniel J. Gilmartin, Industrial Development Commission. They
have no objection to the petition as submitted.
Petitioner was not present.
Fred Armour: I don't know where Walter is tonight.
27251 Joy Rd
Livonia
Mr. Andrew: Is this a truck repair center.
Mr. Nagy: 433 feet is the depth with the west part (133 feet) being presently
zoned M-2. Advance Maintenance Truck now occupies the building.
The outer portion of the property is used by Mr. Pivetta for storage.
Mr. Andrew: Does he wish to add on to the building?
Mr. Armour: No, just continue what they have now. Inspection gave him a hard time.
He had his equipment stored in M-1. It was best to rezone this to M-2.
ItMrs. Scurto: Could we get some clean up, fix up, paint up? The fence is terrible.
Mr. Armour: I think that it can be repaired.
Mr. Zimmer: Does the petitioner formally occupy the building?
Mr. Armour: No.
Mr. Zimmer: Does he own it?
Mr. Armour: Yes.
Mr. Zimmer: He just leased it to a new tenant recently?
Mr. Armour: Yes.
Mrs. Scurto: Since we cannot condition zoning what can we do along the housekeeping
lines to this property?
Mr. Andrew: We could table the petition and wait until Mr. Pivetta shows up.
Mrs. Scurto: I would be in favor of this. I think this is an eyesore.
There was no one else present wishing to be heard regarding this petition.

#3-36-82 RESOLVED that, pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held on March 16,
1982 on Petition 82-2-1-4 by Walter Pivetta requesting to rezone property
located west of Inkster Road, south of the I-96 Freeway, in the Northeast
1/4 of Section 25, from M-1 to M-2, the City Planning Commission does hereby
determine to table Petition 82-2-1-4 until the Study Meeting to be conducted
on March 23, 1982.
Mr. Andrew, Chairman, declared the motion is carried and the foregoing resolution
adopted.
Mrs. Scurto announced the next item on the agenda is Petition 82-2-2-2 by Seymour H.
Mandell requesting waiver use approval to construct a florist shop on the
south side of Plymouth Road, east of Wayne Road in the Northwest 1/4 of
Section 33.
Mr. Nagy: We have a letter from Engineering dated February 18, 1982 from Gary
Clark. We have not heard from the State of Michigan or the Traffic
Department.
Mr. Mandell: I talked with Mr. Wilson, State Highway Department. We reviewed
requirements for new curbcuts and discussed drainage. He advised me
at that time that the applicaion for curb cuts would be favorably
received by them. We will be supplying figures and calculations for
run off rates. We would like to tap into the sewers in the right-of-
way. There is a natural drainage to the back. We would much prefer
to get positive outlet. The permit for the sewer tap is contingent on
certain retention requirements. We will still have some on site water
retention. That will be within the paved parking area. This is a
matter of design characteristic. I would not put in a screened fence
retention pond. The retention will be into the paved parking lot and
we would rarely have water standing more than 2 or 3 hours. We might
have water retention for 1/2 day if we had a 7 inch rainfall.
Mr. Andrew: I feel more landscaping is needed than is shown on this plan.
Mrs. Scurto: At the western extremity of the restaurant there is a 12 foot 2"
space between the restaurant wall and sidewalk. Is there grass going
in there?
Mr. Mandell: We will clean up the south end of restaurant. We have planned no
landscaping there.
Mrs. Scurto: The truck shute will service all the trucks?
Mr. Mandell: The large trucks will use the back and use the truck shute. They will
unload the items and put them out back. The samll trucks will use the
front of the building. The larger trucks will go directly into the yard.
None of that merchandise will come directly into the building.
Mr. Zimmer: What about the two driveways versus one? I would like to see you close the
most westerly driveway of the restaurant?
Mr. Mandell: The State Highway Department did not have a problem. We tried to treat
each as a separate drive. That first drive would be prefereably removed.
My client has to convince the tenant. We have to impose upon
tenant and have him use the new driveway.
- 7647
•
Mr. Zimmer: I would like to see the driveway removed. My concern is still the
same and it is from a traffic standpoint. Regardless of the tenant
and owner relationship I have a difficult time accepting this plan
with both driveways. I feel a second curbcut would be unacceptable.
There is too much traffic in that area.
Mrs. Sobolewski: Is there a complete drive through between new drive into the
restaurant area in front of the restaurant?
Mr. Mandell: We are leaving a drive through.
Mr. Andrew: The question is whether or not we want to allow your client access
to the restaurant site.
Mrs. Scurto: Does this florist facility require 4 handicapped spots?
Mr. Mandell: No.
Mrs. Scurto: I see four on the plan. Are you utilizing some of the restaurant site
for this plan?
Mr. Mandell: The restaurant, if you took the corner site as a restaurant and counted
parking that is available, it is not adequate. In order to clean up the
' act and give the site adequate parking that should be required I showed
four so that the restaurant would be served with paved parking.
Mrs. Scurto: Are we looking at this for a total overall plan? The restaurant is also
a waiver. The florist is also a waiver use. Sometimes you look at it
with the restaurant and sometimes without.
4 Mr. Mandell: The restaurant does have a parking problem among other things. Since
it is possible to provide better facilities for the sites and since there
is going to be paved parking it ought to work for a total site.
Ralph Horowitz: We did not talk to the tenant as yet about closing the driveway
28970 San Carlos because I did not want to put the cart before the horse. I wanted
Southfield, MI to get this approved first. We can bring the drive in back and
eliminate the garbage dumpster in back. We can eliminate the
drive through in front of the restaurant and make the other. I
am only interested in the florist.
Mr. Mandell: The approval can be made stating that we close the Plymouth driveway
and open one in back, one or the other but not both.
Mr. Morrow: You approached the tenant about moving the dumpster?
Mr. Horowitz: No. I am sure he will be happy about that.
Mr. Morrow: That is not as definitive as it shows on the plan.
Mr. Horowitz: The tenant has not seen the plan.
Mr. Morrow: I see this as a chance to upgrade the site. There are some questions
about the two driveways, the close proximity from one drive to another.
We don't have a response from our Traffic Department. I wish we had
some feedback from your tenant prior to taking action on this petition.

Mr. Andrew: I see 53 spaces are required and 58 are provided. Is that for the
site in question or including the restaurant in the total?
,t •
Mr. Nagy: The 53 parking spaces is for both uses.
Mr. Andrew: There is very little landscaping provided here. My experience in the
past is we never have approved a landscape plan in the City that doesn't
encompass a 15 to 20 foot planting area. I see only about 30 evergreens
across the front encompassing an area of 3 feet wide. Does the legal
description encompass the entire piece.
Mr. Nagy: No.
Mr. Andrew: This is an open air business.
Mr. Nagy: Yes, and it is limited to the area as legally defined.
Mr. Andrew: I recommend no reference be made in approval as to Phase 2 construction.
That should be deleted. Petitioner indicates future masonry wall at south
not be constructed .until Phase 2. I suggest the wall should be required
as part of first phase construction.
Mr. Zimmer: What about the south 90 feet of the parcel? Is that part of the
restaurant' lease?
Mr. Mandell: The south 90 feet of the parcel is not in the lease. The south drive
to Wayne Road is not in the lease.
Mr. Zimmer: The south drive is totally yours without any attachments.
It
Mr. Andrew: I think the legal description is incorrect, more landscaping on Wayne
Road and revise the legal description.
Mr. Mandell: The legal description is for the total parcel.
Mr. Nagy: The legal description used cannot cover the entire property because there
are no open air sales allowed within 200 feet of an intersection.
Mr. Andrew: Is the dumpster on the property the one the tenant leases?
Mr. Horowitz: No.
Mr. Andrew: I feel we should table this matter. I feel you should talk to the
tenant, get more landscaping across entire frontage, and I am concerned
with parking spaces on right-of-way and I am concerned about the legal
description.
Pres. of Civic Association: What sundries will be sold outside?
12066 Boston Post Rd.
Livonia, MI
Mr. Andrew: We know that concrete, peat, stone will not. Gravel will not be sold.
Mr. Horowitz: Whatever you find objectionable I will not sell.

located on the east side of Newburgh Road between Six Mile Road and Munger
in the Northwest 1/4 of Section 17, for general office purposes.
Mr. Nagy: We have a letter from Engineering dated February 23 from Gary Clark
indicating no engineering problems.
Mr. Siegal: We received site plan approval July, 1979. There was no progress. We
20100 Green- got an extension for one year. Doctor Sanberg, a local dentist is
field, Det. interested. We started one building. That did not succeed in attracting
medical tenants. We have had some response for general office use.
Mr. Siegal: We plan to fill in the area so that we will have enough parking for
general office. We are negotiating a lease subject to this waiver being
I
requested. We plan to have approximately 14,000 sq. feet. We will
provide 110 parking spots. We would like the waiver use for the entire
site so that we might have the flexibility. The legal description does
not encompass the first building. The new building will have the same
pitch, same brick and shingles, the window locations have changed, they
will not be as high. We will maintain a consistent architectural treatment.
Mr. Andrew: What is the brick return on the north elevation?
Mr. Siegal: The north elevation will be in block. There will be a return of 6
feet on the east and west.
Mr. Andrew: How would you meet the 2,000 square feet fire code regarding exits?
Mr. Siegal: I checked with Mr. Karol and itis a 3,500 square foot code.
Mrs. Naidow: Will there be windows across the back?
Mr. Siegal: The window treatment would be the same.
Mrs. Naidow: How far will this be from the wall?
Mr. Siegal: 11 feet.
Mr. Andrew: Will the proposed storage area have footings?
jMr. Siegal: Yes. The building permit contains details for that shed. It will be
4 all brick, shingled roof with footings.
Mr. Vyhnalek: Do you have two light stands?

30150 Orangelawn from the generato, horses have been housed in the field, people
hanging over the fence talking to my children while they are playing

were sent out to the neighbors. I am speaking for myself and two
neighbors. I wonder if some of the merchants have been contacted.
It Where do they empty their personal porta johns?
