Mr. Ian Wilshaw, Chairman, called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. Members present: Sam Caramagno Glen Long Kevin Priddy Ian Wilshaw Members absent: Betsy McCue, Carol Smiley, Peter Ventura Mr. Mark Taormina, Planning Director, and Ms. Margie Watson, Program Supervisor, were also present. Chairman Wilshaw informed the audience that if a petition on tonight's agenda involves a rezoning request, this Commission makes a recommendation to the City Council who, in turn, will hold its own public hearing and make the final determination as to whether a petition is approved or denied. The Planning Commission holds the only public hearing on a request for preliminary plat and/or vacating petition. The Commission's recommendation is forwarded to the City Council for the final determination as to whether a plat is accepted or rejected. If a petition requesting a waiver of use or site plan approval is denied tonight, the petitioner has ten days in which to appeal the decision, in writing, to the City Council. Resolutions adopted by the City Planning Commission become effective seven (7) days after the date of adoption. The Planning Commission and the professional staff have reviewed each of these petitions upon their filing. The staff has furnished the Commission with both approving and denying resolutions, which the Commission may, or may not, use depending on the outcome of the proceedings tonight. ITEM #1 PETITION 2018-05-02-11 SPEEDWAY Mr. Caramagno, Secretary, announced the first item on the agenda, Petition 2018- 05-02-11 submitted by CESO, Inc. requesting waiver use approval pursuant to Sections 11.03(a) and 11.03(c)(4) of the City of Livonia Zoning Ordinance #543, as amended, in connection with a proposal to renovate the existing Speedway gas station, including demolition of the existing building, construction of a new gas station and the operation of a limited service restaurant (Speedy Café) at 37416 Seven Mile Road, located on the northwest corner of Seven Mile and Newburgh Roads in the Southeast 1/4 of Section 6. June 5, 2018 28601 Mr. Taormina: This petition involves the complete reconstruction of the Speedway gas station located at the northwest corner of Seven Mile and Newburgh Roads. The property is zoned C-2, General Business. The surrounding land uses and zoning include immediately to the north, Fountainview Plaza, which is a multi- tenant retail center zoned C-2 and C-1. East on the opposite side of Newburgh Road are a variety of commercial businesses zoned C-1 and C-2. To the west across Bethany is a dental office as well as residential homes under the RUF zoning, and south across Seven Mile is a credit union and medical center zoned Professional Office and Office Services. The parcel measures 200 feet along Seven Mile Road by 193 feet on Newburgh Road, but to facilitate the expansion, Speedway is purchasing from the owners of Fountainview Plaza the westerly 50 feet of property that is located between the gas station and Bethany Street. The additional property increases the frontage of the Speedway station on Seven Mile to 250 feet. The existing gas station building is about 2,400 square feet in size. There are six gas pumps. The proposed new Speedway will measure 4,608 square feet and will be located in the same general location as the existing building, which is set back about 19 feet from the north property line. The floor layout shows the retail display area, cashier counter, walk-in coolers, restrooms and Speedy Café. The seating area for the cafe is located in the front portion of the station. The plan shows 17 interior seats. There will be an outdoor patio located on the east side of the building measuring about 22 feet by 22 feet and would accommodate two tables with a total of eight seats. The patio would be protected by both decorative fencing as well as bollards. Looking at the elevation of the building, there would be brick on all four sides. The building would contain a peaked roof and asphalt shingles. The overall height of the building would be 23'6". The new fueling center would have seven pump islands, each with two pumps for a total of 14 and the capacity to serve 28 vehicles. So this would be an expansion of the fueling facility. The canopy measures 28 feet by 169 feet in length and extends lengthwise, parallel to Seven Mile Road. The Zoning Ordinance limits the overall height of the canopy to 18 feet and the proposed canopy would exceed this. The plan shows the height at 20 feet. In 1995, the previous owner of this property, Marathon Oil Company, was granted a variance for excess canopy height. The basis for the variance was the grade difference on the property. Because the current non-conforming canopy is being demolished and replaced with a new canopy, a variance will be required. The lower half of the support columns of the pump island canopy would be clad with the same brick used in the construction of the building. Going back to the site June 5, 2018 28602 plan, the parking requirement is based both on the amount of retail display area as well as the number of seats in the café. Overall, the site is required to have 32 parking spaces. The plan shows 37 for an excess of five spaces. There will be a cross- access and parking agreement between Fountainview Plaza and Speedway. The plan shows a curb opening in the northwest corner of the site that will provide access to the back of the shopping center property allowing for easier access to and from both commercial properties. Also shown on the site plan is a new trash enclosure which is located in the southwest corner of the site. The access gates would face south towards Seven Mile. Directly behind the trash enclosure, accessible from a sidewalk extending along the west side of the building, is a semi-enclosed outdoor sales area which will consist of the ice machines and propane exchange cages. Currently, there are three driveways providing access to the site - one on Newburgh Road and then two on Seven Mile. As part of the redevelopment, the easterly drive on Seven Mile will be removed and the remaining approaches would be shifted and reconfigured to improve access from each road including limiting the turn movements on Newburgh to right-in and right out only. The landscape plan provides for landscaping along the frontage of Seven Mile Road adjacent to the proposed sign right at the intersection, some additional landscaping at the back of the center and then on the westerly side adjacent to Bethany. Stormwater would be handled underground for this development. We do not have information at this time relative to site lighting, so it's uncertain whether or not there will be new light poles added as part of the redevelopment. Of course, the canopy will be under-lit and the City requires that all lights be flush-mounted. Lastly, in terms of signage, gas stations are allowed one ground sign not to exceed 40 square feet in area, 12 feet in height and a minimum setback of 5 feet from the right-of-way. The plan is showing a ground sign that would be 32 square feet, 5'9" in height located near the intersection of Seven Mile and Newburgh Roads. So that ground mounted sign is fully conforming to the ordinance. The ordinance also allows wall signs either in the form of building-mounted signs or signs affixed to the canopy fascia. The total combined area is limited to 100 square feet. The sign plan shows two wall signs on the building, one is 17 square feet and the other is 34 square feet, and then four signs on the canopy, one facing Newburgh at 47 square feet, one facing Seven Mile at 50 square feet, one facing Bethany at 47 square feet, and one on the north elevation also 50 square feet. Altogether, when you add the wall signage up, it totals 245 square feet so it exceeds the maximum limit by 145 square feet and will therefore require a variance from the Zoning June 5, 2018 28603 Board of Appeals. With that, Mr. Chairman, I can read out the departmental correspondence. Mr. Wilshaw: Yes, please. Mr. Taormina: There are six items of correspondence. The first item is from the Engineering Division, dated May 17, 2018, which reads as follows: "In accordance with your request, the Engineering Division has reviewed the above referenced petition. We have no objections to the waiver use at this time. The existing parcel is assigned the address of 37416 Seven Mile Road. The submitted legal description appears to be correct and should be used in association with this petition. However, the lot split and combination reflected in the submitted description has not been completed at this time. It would be advisable to require the completion of the lot split before final approval of the waiver use, since the legal description may change if the split and combination is not approved as submitted. It should be noted that the existing parcel is currently serviced by public water main, sanitary sewer and storm sewer. The submitted drawings indicate that storm water detention will be provided, but do not provide calculations. We will review the calculations and utility connections during the permitting stages. The owner will also need to submit Engineering Drawings to the Wayne County Department of Public Services for any work within the Seven Mile Road right-of-way, as well as for any connections to the storm sewer under their jurisdiction." The letter is signed by David W. Lear, P.E., Assistant City Engineer. The second letter is from the Livonia Fire & Rescue Division, dated May 24, 2018, which reads as follows: "This office has reviewed the site plan submitted in connection with a proposal to renovate the existing Speedway gas station, including the demolition of the existing building, construction of a new gas station and the operation of a limited service restaurant on property located at the above referenced address. We have no objections to this proposal." The letter is signed by Keith Bo, Fire Marshal. The third letter is from the Division of Police, dated May 16, 2018, which reads as follows: I have reviewed the plans in connection with the petition. I have no objections to the proposal." The letter is signed by Brian Leigh, Sergeant, Traffic Bureau. The fourth letter is from the Treasurer's Department, dated May 15, 2018, which reads as follows: "In accordance with your request, the Treasurer's Office has reviewed the address connected with the above noted petition. At this time, there are no outstanding amounts receivable for taxes. Therefore, I have no objections to the proposal." The letter is signed by Lynda Scheel, Treasurer. The fifth letter is from the Finance Department, dated May 17, 2018, which reads as June 5, 2018 28604 follows: "I have reviewed the addresses connected with the above noted petition. As there are no outstanding amounts receivable, general or water and sewer, I have no objections to the proposal." The letter is signed by Coline Coleman, Chief Accountant. The six letter is from the Assessment Department, dated May 18, 2018, which reads as follows: "The petition submitted by CESO, Inc. describes a parcel that is not legally in existence. The petition includes property owned by the shopping center. A request to split off part of the shopping center and combine it with the gas station was held up in 2015. We are waiting for additional information. The Planning Department was waiting for information on the new location of the shopping center's dumpster and if this would negatively affect the required number of parking spaces, and the Engineering Department has asked for revised legal descriptions. The owner/taxpayer on record is EMRO Marketing Co. If this property has been purchase by CESO, they will need to provide proof of ownership. The Assessor's Office recommends the property split/combination be approved before proceeding." The letter is signed by Mary Ciolino. That is the extent of the correspondence. Mr. Wilshaw: Are there any questions of the Planning Director? I don't hear any. Our petitioner is here. We will need your name and address for the record please. Mandy Gauss, CESO, Inc., 13060 Old US 27, Dewitt, Michigan 48820. Thanks for having us here tonight. Appreciate your time. I know you did a pretty good presentation, so I won't bore you with too much extra. There are a few things I would like to point out. Regarding the site lighting, we will provide with the full engineering plans site lighting. Everything will be demolished. All the underground tanks will be coming out. All the underground piping. It will be completely removed and everything will be put in brand new. So all our site lighting will be updated. Everything will be LED lights, recessed lighting under the canopy. We'll provide a lighting plan that meets codes with the actual permitting submittals. Also, just to kind of point out for this site, one thing you'll notice, I know existing it's a stacked canopy and there's no parking in front of the building. So we definitely feel, I know it can be a nightmare out there with parking and for access. Currently there's only 14 parking spaces, so going to the 37 is going to make a big difference on the site. The additional five spaces are required due to the cross-access parking we have with the purchased parcel. Speedway has already purchased the parcel. That is why it says it's owned by ENRO Marketing. They are in the process. There was a few items outstanding when we submitted lot split documents back in 2015. One was the easement document June 5, 2018 28605 which we did provide recently. One of the items I know mentioned was that the shopping center had to finish their improvements before this lot split could be finalized. So we will be submitting that application with the easement support documentation. We are in coordination with the shopping center to the north to get them to finish their improvements so that can all be wrapped up and taken care prior to anything moving forward on the site. This is a drive-in configuration too. That's one thing that's different. I know we're only going from six dispensers to seven. However, with the six dispensers and the stacked configuration, it's harder to get to and access the dispensers with the drive-in. It does have better movement on site and it's easier to access and get people in and out because you don't have to wait for another car to move to get to the next dispenser to fuel. This is Speedway's preferred canopies and it definitely will help improve the movement and flow and any congestion that you're seeing at the existing site today. But I'm here to answer any questions you may have. Feel free to ask them. Mr. Wilshaw: Thank you for that detailed presentation. I always appreciate that. This is a complete tear out of your existing facility? Ms. Gauss: Correct. Mr. Wilshaw: Do we have any questions for our petitioner? Mr. Long: On the exterior right elevation, you can see the two picnic tables. Are those portable or year-round? Ms. Gauss: Those are there year-round. They are bolted down so they cannot be moved. They are out there year-round, and the umbrellas are more like a metal. They are solid. They are not going to be impacted by wind. They won't break down. They are a solid material. Mr. Long: Okay. That's my biggest concern looking at this if they are out there in the weather, how are they going to look still look nice after one year, two years, and what's your maintenance or replacement plans on those. Ms. Gauss: Yes. They do maintain them. They'll paint them as needed to keep them looking nice. I mean Speedway is very big on appearance for their store and that's the reason they redo a lot of their older stores. Again, this was a Total station previously. So it is important for them to bring it up to their standards which they June 5, 2018 28606 prefer to keep everything looking nice and clean and it keeps everything functioning better in general. Mr. Long: With this renovation, the current location will shut down for how long? Ms. Gauss: Typically, for a full rebuild, it takes about five months. Four to five months depending on the time of year and the weather, unforeseens, but maximum five months typically. Mr. Caramagno: My question is related to the driveway on the west side that adjoins the shopping center to the north. That will be an open curb cut driveway. Do you expect traffic to travel through there to exit the property? Ms. Gauss: You could anticipate some. I'm sure if they're trying to go to the other shopping center as well instead of having to go onto the roads. So you can anticipate a little bit of cross traffic. We don't really do the traffic study that way just because we try to be as conservative as possible and show all the traffic utilizing the drives and the roadway, but personally I would anticipate some cross traffic. How much I don't know. Mr. Caramagno: Is the neighboring property aware that may happen? Are they okay with that? Ms. Gauss: Yes. There is cross-access easements in place. That was part of the lot split requirement with the letter back in 2015 was that the easements needed to be put in place. So there is a document now in place that's already been recorded for cross-access for the two parcels. So that has all been taken care of. Mr. Caramagno: Thank you. Mr. Priddy: You said you're adding pumps. Is that for additional types of fuel? Ms. Gauss: I'm not sure exactly what the existing station has. Sorry, I should have been prepared for that. But this station here does have three plus one on the two ends and on this end there's one. So this one will be diesel. The two outsides will be diesel. And then the second one over is going to be the flex fuel, the 85. Mr. Priddy: So we're adding something then from the existing. Ms. Gauss: I'm not sure if the existing station has diesel. They might. I'm not positive. June 5, 2018 28607 Mr. Priddy: I was just wondering if that was the reason for the seventh pump. Ms. Gauss: There is demand for additional to not have backup at the dispensers. MR. Priddy: I have a question on the wall that's shielding the ice machines and the propane and so forth. On the drawing, it shows exterior access to the propane. Is that correct? Ms. Gauss: Yeah. Propane has to be exterior storage obviously. So what the access would be, the whole front side of this screen wall, it's like a "U." So the whole front side is actually open. From the sidewalk you'd be able to walk onto the sidewalk and access the ice and the propane, but it will be screened from the sides and the rear— just between the building where the sidewalk is will be an open wall. Mr. Priddy: So you would be able to see it facing it directly or behind it? Ms. Gauss: If you're standing at the store and then turn towards it, it will be open. Mr. Priddy: But it's shielded from the road. Ms. Gauss: Yes. Shielded from the road. The building will shield it from the Newburgh side and then from Bethany is where the screen wall itself is located. Mr. Priddy: So a big change from where you have everything today? Ms. Gauss: Yes. It will be very not visible. Mr. Priddy: Thank you. Mr. Taormina: Mandy, so this front elevation view, which shows the ice machines and the propane cages on the front of the building, that is for a different prototype, right? So there won't be anything placed in front of the store related to outside sales. That will all occur within that semi-screened area on the west side of the building. Ms. Gauss: That is correct. Yes. The one that was provided was the prototypical for the building. Unfortunately, it wasn't removed. So on the actual documents that are submitted for permitting, those will not be shown along the front of the building Mr. Taormina: Okay. Thank you. June 5, 2018 28608 Mr. Wilshaw: Also, I believe it was mentioned at our study meeting that you'll have a free air pump which will be on the south side of the property near the Seven Mile Road entrance? Ms. Gauss: Correct. The free air pump will be right here in the middle of that front curb line so that's it far enough away so if somebody with a trailer pulls in, there's enough room to maneuver and park to fill trailers and tires and then be able to exit safely. Mr. Wilshaw: Do you have vacuums for people who vacuum out their cars? Ms. Gauss: They do not have vacuums on this site, no. Mr. Wilshaw: Do we have any other questions? Mr. Caramagno: When I look at your drawing here of the canopy, it looks as though it doesn't come to the west quite as far and it's not in front of what would be the dumpster enclosure. Yet when I look at the front elevation drawing, it looks like it does come over past the dumpster enclosure. What is it? Is it one way or the other? Ms. Gauss: It might just be the angle because it does shows on the site plan . . . let's see where the canopy line comes in here. Mr. Taormina: It straddles it about half way. Ms. Gauss: It straddles it about half way. Mr. Caramagno: So the drawing is more accurate than the picture? Ms. Gauss: Yes. Correct. The site plan is the most accurate. As you can see, the second dispenser, the building kind of would straddle this and this, so the whole canopy should shift half a dispenser if you're looking at the site plan. So this edge of building would fall like right in this section of the canopy. Mr. Caramagno: The reason I ask, obviously a front load dumpster there and anything going overhead with that canopy there could potentially be a problem. Ms. Gauss: Yes, and we do look at that so where the truck is entering and dumping, we did circulation and everything works fine in that location and we'll have no conflict. Mr. Caramagno: Good. Thank you. June 5, 2018 28609 Mr. Wilshaw: Are there any other questions? I think we're all set here. Is there anybody in the audience that wishes to speak for or against this item? Sir, you're welcome to come forward. Please provide your name and address. Eric Zylinski, Apple Crest Dental, 37500 W. Seven Mile, Livonia, Michigan 48152. I own the property due west, Apple Crest properties, a multi- tenant building. My concerns are with drainage. Currently, we have some issues where we're located. The property just west of us, a raised drive was put in and kind of acts like a dam and changed the historical drainage. Now water from the neighborhood to the north of me now hits this drive and comes to me. We've been precariously close to getting flooded out. So, my concern is with the greenbelt that would be between the new development and Bethany. I know they talked about issues or that they do plan to have water detention underground. My issues or concerns are with the greenbelt. I want to know is there going to be a ditch there? Will there be a sanitary sewer there to catch it? Also, with snow removal, snow melt. This looks like the perfect place to push it as far as this site plan is concerned. I would like to know what the plan s are for that aspect of the development. If it would be possible to have some sort of sanitary drain towards the northwest part of their property and towards the southwest part of their property, I think that would probably be helpful. Currently, there is a test well on that greenbelt between the gas station and Bethany. I would like to know is that test well going to remain in place? Another issue would be, currently, the eastern portion, almost more than half of Bethany, is not owned by the City. I wanted to know how this development is affected by that in the purchase of this property, was half of the street purchased here as well. How is the ownership being handled with that? So, my primary concerns are with water and how it's going to be managed there. Mr. Wilshaw: Thank you, Mr. Zylinski. I appreciate that. We'll try to get some answers for you. Mr. Taormina, there is a question about the right-of-way of Bethany as part of this property. I do recall when we looked at parcels in this area before, it is sort of a unique situation where the lot lines seem to actually extend out onto the roadway. Is that still the case? Mr. Taormina: I believe that is being handled through the split and combination process - the dedication of the easterly half of the right-of-way to the City. Relative to drainage, we have the engineer here. I'm sure she can address the issue. But yes, that portion of the right- of-way is being dedicated. June 5, 2018 28610 Mr. Wilshaw: Okay. Thankyou. I figured I would start with the more city- oriented Y 9 Y oriented aspect of it since you could answer that, while our petitioner could discuss the other drainage issues. Ms. Gauss: We are looking at that 25 foot that is currently not dedicated right- of-way. That is actually in Marathon Petroleum's name. It's not Speedway. There are two different owners. So Speedway is in the process of getting Marathon to sign that over to them in order to dedicate it. So it is under a process. It just takes a little bit of time, but it is going to happen. It was split really weird. The whole 25 feet is still owned by Marathon Petroleum. It's not part of these two parcels but it was never dedicated. So it will be dedicated by the end of this process. That's what we're working towards so that will get resolved. Mr. Wilshaw: Excellent. Thank you. Ms. Gauss: And as far as the drainage is concerned, we are addressing any issues of drainage. We are putting in an underground storage system. This entire area right here is underground storage, and it is sized accordingly to the proper standards to meet for the site. The grading plan that we did prepare, you can kind of see, the site is showing - this whole greenbelt I know was the concern. Wayne County is very picky. You have to detain everything on site. So we are grading this down to this corner and there is a catch basin in that location in order to catch the drainage before it leaves the site and take that back into the system. So we are going to be improving the current situation. Mr. Wilshaw: Are you aware of the test well that exists? Ms. Gauss: I am not, personally, but Speedway does have their own environmental group that does monitor all their own test wells. They will be on-site during construction monitoring all the soils. Anything that needs to be removed, they take care of at that time. They're very, very, conscious of environmental. So they have their own in-house environmental crew that is there constantly during the construction, during excavation, the pits, the tanks, everything. They're very on top of that and make sure everything is remediated at the time of construction. The test well may or may not be removed. It depends on the State and the testing requirements and why it was placed. Again, that's Speedway environmental. I could get more clarification on that if needed. June 5, 2018 28611 Mr. Wilshaw: And speaking of environmental concerns, you're also completely replacing the tanks that are on this site, too, to upgraded better safety tanks. Ms. Gauss: Yes. They will be the double wall, fiberglass tanks, fully monitored. So in between the cells, they have a sensor. Anytime water gets in from either the tank out or from the ground in, it immediately sends notifications not only to the store but to the headquarters. It's red flagged and it's immediately addressed. They're much better nowadays with technology and able to prevent a lot of contamination compared to in the past. Mr. Wilshaw: Excellent. And as far as snow removal goes, obviously you don't necessarily have a plan for every element of maintenance on the site, but what is your thought in terms of where snow would generally be placed on this site? Ms. Gauss: Typically, they will remove it to the green areas and sometimes in the parking where you're not seeing a lot of parking off to the sides. They'll use some of that just for storage if needed. If there is a lot, they can haul it off if it's one of those seasons where there's a large amount and it's impacting the operations of the store. I do see typically you're going to see it more along Bethany as you discussed, but again, the stormwater as it melts, it will drain to that storm structure, go into the system and then discharge to Seven Mile Road, I believe is where our connection point it. Mr. Wilshaw: Your requirement by Wayne County to maintain all your stormwater on site and discharge it at certain rates also includes snow melt as well. Correct? Ms. Gauss: Yes. You design for a certain year storm so that would have everything incorporated that you design for and detain for. Mr. Wilshaw: Okay. Thank you. I appreciate you answering those questions for us. Is there anything else you want to mention? Ms. Gauss: Not that I can think of. Mr. Wilshaw: With that, I will close the public hearing and ask for a motion. On a motion by Priddy, seconded by Long, and unanimously adopted, it was #06-35-2018 RESOLVED, that pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held by the City Planning Commission on June 5, 2018, on Petition 2018-05-02-11 submitted by CESO, Inc. requesting waiver use June 5, 2018 28612 approval pursuant to Sections 11.03(a) and 11.03(c)(4) of the City of Livonia Zoning Ordinance #543, as amended, in connection with a proposal to renovate the existing Speedway gas station, including demolition of the existing building, construction of a new gas station and the operation of a limited service restaurant (Speedy Café) at 37416 Seven Mile Road, located on the northwest corner of Seven Mile and Newburgh Roads in the Southeast 1/4 of Section 6, which property is zoned C-2, the Planning Commission does hereby recommend to the City Council that Petition 2018-05-02-11 be approved subject to the following conditions: 1.

That the specific plans referenced in this approving resolution shall be submitted to the Inspection Department at the time the building permits are applied for; and, 23. Pursuant to Section 19.10 of Ordinance #543, the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Livonia, this approval is valid for a period of ONE YEAR ONLY from the date of approval by City Council, and unless a building permit is obtained, this approval shall be null and void at the expiration of said period. FURTHER RESOLVED, that notice of the above hearing was given in accordance with the provisions of Section 19.05 of Zoning Ordinance #543, as amended. Mr. Wilshaw: Is there any discussion? Mr. Priddy: Is the outside ice placement consistent? Mr. Taormina: No, we're going to have to amend both of those conditions, #17 and #18, to allow for the outdoor sales. We will take care of that. Mr. Priddy: And #15 as well. Mr. Taormina: Yes. Mr. Long: I will support with the amendments to Items #15, #17 and #18. June 5, 2018 28615 Mr. Wilshaw, Chairman, declared the motion is carried and the foregoing resolution adopted. It will go on to City Council with an approving resolution. ITEM #2 PETITION 2018-05-06-02 LANGUAGE AMENDMENT ZBA Board Members Mr. Caramagno, Secretary, announced the next item on the agenda, Petition 2018- 05-06-02 submitted by the City Planning Commission, pursuant to Council Resolution #165-18, and Section 23.01(a) of the Livonia Zoning Ordinance, as amended, to determine whether or not to amend Sections 21.01, 21.02 and 21.03 of Article XXI of the Livonia Zoning Ordinance No. 543, as amended, in order to provide for the appointment of alternate Zoning Board of Appeals board members. Mr. Taormina: This language amendment was initiated by City Council to allow for the appointment of two alternate members to the Zoning Board of Appeals. The Zoning Board of Appeals currently has seven members. Each alternate member appointed would be called upon to serve in the same capacity as a regular member in his or her absence or due to a conflict of interest. The authority of municipalities to appoint alternate members to the Zoning Board of Appeals is provided under the Michigan Zoning and Enabling Act and is commonly done throughout the State. Again, this is a recommendation that comes from City Council via the City Law Department which staffs the Zoning Board of Appeals. I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have. Mr. Wilshaw: Are there any questions of the Planning Director? Mr. Long: Mark, given our representation tonight of only four out of seven Planning Commissioners, is two enough? Do they need three alternates? Mr. Taormina: The State Law limits it to two. Mr. Long: So if that happened, then they would just have six and they would have their meeting. Mr. Taormina: Exactly. Mr. Long: Thank you. Mr. Wilshaw: Are there any other questions for Mr. Taormina? Seeing none, is there anybody in the audience that wishes to speak for or against June 5, 2018 28616 this item? Seeing no one coming forward, I will close the public hearing and ask for a motion. On a motion by Long, seconded by Caramagno, and unanimously adopted, it was #06-36-2018 RESOLVED, that pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held by the City Planning Commission on June 5, 2018, on Petition 2018-05-06-02 submitted by the City Planning Commission, pursuant to Council Resolution #165-18, and Section 23.01(a) of the Livonia Zoning Ordinance, as amended, to determine whether or not to amend Sections 21.01, 21.02 and 21.03 of Article XXI of the Livonia Zoning Ordinance No. 543, as amended, in order to provide for the appointment of alternate Zoning Board of Appeals board members, the Planning Commission does hereby recommend to the City Council that Petition 2018-05-06-02 be approved for the following reasons: 1. That the proposed language amendment remedies the scheduling conflicts to seat all seven members of the Zoning Board of Appeals at their hearings by allowing an alternate member to serve in the absence of a regular member; and 2. That the proposed language amendment is in the best interests of the City and its residents. FURTHER RESOLVED, that notice of the above hearing was given in accordance with the provisions of Section 23.05 of Zoning Ordinance #543, as amended. Mr. Wilshaw, Chairman, declared the motion is carried and the foregoing resolution adopted. It will go on to City Council with an approving resolution. ITEM #3 PETITION 2018-05-08-04 LEVAN WINE SHOP Mr. Caramagno, Secretary, announced the next item on the agenda, Petition 2018- 05-08-04 submitted by Ayar Construction requesting approval of all plans required by Section 18.58 of the City of Livonia Zoning Ordinance#543, as amended, regarding a proposal to modify the exterior appearance of the existing party store (Levan Wine Shop) at 36217 Plymouth Road, located on the southeast corner of Plymouth and Levan Roads in the Northeast 1/4 of Section 32. Mr. Taormina: This is a request to modify the exterior of an existing retail store that is located on the southeast corner of Plymouth and Levan Road. The name of the store is the Levan Wine Shop. The property measures roughly 170 feet of frontage along Plymouth June 5, 2018 28617 Road by 210 feet on Levan Road. The zoning of the property is C-2, General Business. The site presently contains a 5,000 square foot building. The current exterior of the building mostly consists of wood siding. The siding would be completely removed and replaced with a combination of brick, stone and E.I.F.S. Along the lower part of the building, there is a band of stone that's about 4.5 feet above grade. This includes the areas that are below the storefront windows. This is a stone veneer and then above the stone on portions of the north and west sides of the building facing Plymouth and Levan Roads, there would be a thin- brick material that would extend all the way to the top of a new crown molding that would replace the parapet along the top of the building. This is the proposed north elevation and just below it is the west elevation. So these are the sides of the building that face both Plymouth and Levan Roads. You'll notice the stone along the bottom portion of the building, the brick veneer above that, and then in the northwest corner of the building, which includes the main entrance, there is E.I.F.S. above. This is the darker color on the drawing. That would be the dryvit material. Although I don't think it's representative of the colors that they're selecting, this is what extends above the entranceway and the glazing up to the crown molding, and there will be new canopies added to the building. This is the side facing the shopping center and what currently is just a flat side containing this wood would now be broken up a little bit. There would be a new façade, parapet added to the upper part of the building. You can see some offsets and some varying heights where that crown molding is located here and then a combination of brick as well as E.I.F.S. Then lastly, along the back of the building, the side facing the residential district where there is an alleyway and a screen wall that separates the commercial property from the adjoining residential property, there is existing concrete block that I'm assuming will be painted as part of the reconstruction project. At the study meeting, there was some discussion regarding several site deficiencies including the poor condition of the parking lot as well as the light poles, curb blocks, landscaping and lack of a dumpster enclosure. It was suggested that these items be addressed as conditions of approval. And then lastly, relative to signage, we don't have any details on signage, but this site would be allowed two wall signs based on its dual frontage. The one facing Plymouth Road could be up to 80 square feet and then the second sign facing Levan Road would measure half the allowable area of the main sign, which in this case would be 40 square feet. There is currently a nonconforming pylon sign that is on the site, but again, we don't have any details relative to replacement signage, if that's what they're intending to do. So with that, Mr. Chairman, I'd be happy to read out the correspondence. June 5, 2018 28618 Mr. Wilshaw: Yes, please. Mr. Taormina: There are six items of correspondence. The first item is from the Engineering Division, dated May 10, 2018, which reads as follows: "In accordance with your request, the Engineering Division has reviewed the above referenced petition. We have no objections to the proposed project at this time. The existing parcel is assigned the address of #36217 Plymouth Road. The submitted legal description appears to be correct and should be used in conjunction with this petition. The existing building is currently serviced by public water main, sanitary sewer and storm sewer. Should renovations to the building require alterations to the existing services, drawings will need to be submitted to this department to determine if permits will be required. Also, should the owner need to complete work within the Plymouth Road right- of-way, permits from the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) will be required."The letter is signed by David Lear, P.E., Assistant City Engineer. The second letter is from the Livonia Fire & Rescue Division, dated May 16, 2018, which reads as follows: "I have reviewed the site plan submitted in connection with a request to This office has reviewed the site plan submitted in connection with a request to modify the exterior appearance of the existing party store on property located at the above referenced address. We have no objections to this proposal." The letter is signed by Keith Bo, Fire Marshal. The third letter is from the Division of Police, dated May 16, 2018, which reads as follows: "I have reviewed the plans in connection with the petition. I have no objections to the proposal." The letter is signed by Brian Leigh, Sergeant, Traffic Bureau. The fourth letter is from the Inspection Department, dated May 15, 2018, which reads as follows: "Pursuant to your request, the above-referenced petition has been reviewed. This Department has no objections to this petition." The letter is signed by Jerome Hanna, Director of Inspection. That is the extent of the correspondence. The fifth letter is from the Treasurer's Department, dated May 15, 2018, which reads as follows: "In accordance with your request, the Treasurer's Office has reviewed the address connected with the above noted petition. At this time, there are no outstanding amounts receivable for taxes. Therefore, I have no objections to the proposal." The letter is signed by Lynda Scheel, Treasurer. The sixth letter is from the Finance Department, dated May 11, 2018, which reads as follows: "I have reviewed the addresses connected with the above noted petition. As there are no outstanding amounts receivable, general or water and sewer, I have no objections to the proposal."The letter is signed by Coline Coleman, Chief Accountant. Thank you. June 5, 2018 28619 Mr. Wilshaw: Do we have any questions of our Planning Department? Mr. Priddy: Mr. Taormina, did the Planning Department get any samples or color scheme of anything? Mr. Taormina: We do not have a rendering. The architect is here this evening or the construction manager, and maybe he can provide additional information. I think that was requested at the study meeting. Mr. Priddy: All right. Thank you. Mr. Wilshaw: Is the petitioner here this evening? We will need your name and address for the record please. Is there anything else that you'd like to add to the presentation that you've heard so far? Jonathan Ayar, Ayar Construction, 31000 Northwestern, Suite L100, Farmington Hills, Michigan 48334. When we were mentioning about the coloring, we're still essentially in the design phase. We haven't picked out colors. All we know is these are the actual materials that we want to go with. We know we're going with the family of the sandstones and browns. Like you guys mentioned during our presentation about the parking lot, we talked about that. It's going to be part of phase two, which hopefully will be part of a 2019 project. With that, we'll include a landscaping plan. Currently, we're going to actually make repairs to whatever hazards we have in the parking lot and replace the parking blocks and also the light poles in this phase of construction. So we'll try to address most of the issues. Mr. Wilshaw: Excellent. I appreciate that background. Is there any questions for our petitioner? Mr. Priddy: Good evening. I know at the study meeting we were requesting samples or anything like that and I just heard you say you're still in the planning stages of that so you haven't even . . . Mr. Ayar: We know of the materials that we want to use, but we haven't picked any kind of like coloring or any kind of actual . . . I don't want to say design, but actual coloring of what exact colors we want to go with the scheme yet. We don't know if we're going to go lighter on the bottom or darker on the top, but it's going to be a brick veneer and a veneer stone as well. Mr. Priddy: Okay. Thank you. June 5, 2018 28620 Mr. Caramagno: When you were talking about the parking lot and lighting poles, did you say that this is going to be part of this project or another project down the road? Mr. Ayar: The repairs to the parking lot for now, anything that is an actual hazard will be repaired this phase and also lighting will be this phase. The next phase, which is hopefully the 2019 project which was under consideration at this point, we know the parking lot is in pretty bad shape so we want to replace it next year with also a landscape plan. Mr. Caramagno: Okay. So I'm getting this straight, this year you'll replace the light poles along with the building configuration or the remodel. You'll patch the lot and stripe it as well? Mr. Ayar: Yes. Mr. Caramagno: According to the double striping that is required here? Mr. Ayar: Yes. Mr. Caramagno: Okay. Let me ask you a couple other questions then. All the debris that is on the ground by the dumpster, all that rock, dirt, gravel, what is that? How long has that been there and when is that going away? Mr. Ayar: I'm the general contractor. I don't know about that, the actual property itself. I don't own the property. Mr. Caramagno: Does somebody know where that came from? It's like a dumping ground back there. There's a yard or two of rubble, gravel, dirt on the ground. How long has that been there?When is it going to go away? Jeffrey Yono, 36217 Plymouth, Livonia, Michigan 48150. Good evening, everybody. We've been renovating this store. That's going to get taken care of very soon, which I believe already was taken care of a few days ago, if I'm not mistaken. Mr. Caramagno: It could have been. It's been four, five, six days since I've been by there. That is possible. There's a bunch of racks and things behind the building. Has all that been cleaned up? Mr. Yono: If not, it will be. We're making a lot of changes inside. That's why everything was there. June 5, 2018 28621 Mr. Caramagno: Yeah, if it hasn't been, it needs to be. It's really unsightly. The other question I have for you is something that I noticed when I was by there the other day. We talked about it tonight with the Speedway gas station. You've got ice storage. You've got propane storage and paper magazines that are chained to a sign in the parking lot - Auto Trader magazines that appear to be on your property. Mr. Yono: Those we're not responsible for. I don't know who put some there, but the ice machine and propane, we can move them along the side of the building on Levan Road, that way they're not visible on Plymouth Road. Mr. Caramagno: To me, that would be more slightly when you do this to move those machines off to the side so they're not on the main drag and as far as the paper machines go . . . Mr. Yono: I'll have them remove them. Mr. Caramagno: Because if somebody dropped off paper machines at my house or building, I know where they'd go, quickly. Mr. Yono: Sure. Mr. Caramagno: The other question I've got is, you know we talk about signage. You've got a couple building signs. You've got a pylon sign there that I don't know if it makes sense. And then the windows are just plastered with Miller Lite, Budweiser, Bud Lite, Coors Lite, Labatt's. Mr. Yono: All of that is going to get redone. The store has been this way for Mr. Caramagno: How does it get like that in the first place? How does it get that unsightly? Mr. Yono: Because the kitchen is there, they cover it. But eventually, once we give the store a new look, I'm going to get a professional company to come in and paint all the windows and make it look very nice to the way the building is going to look. For myself, I'm going to want to change that as well. I want to give the whole corner a new image. Mr. Caramagno: And that's why I'm asking because it seems like you're going to invest some money here, and there's no reason to invest good money and have the windows plastered up with signage and look like not nice. June 5, 2018 28622 Mr. Yono: Yeah. We're going to change that as well. I agree. Mr. Caramagno: Okay. Is there any plan for a dumpster enclosure? Tell me about that. Mr. Yono: There's nothing on the plans. Right now, there is not one there. We can push a dumpster in more behind the building or we can leave that for phase two for 2019. Mr. Caramagno: I think a phase two for a dumpster enclosure is probably reasonable with the parking lot at that point, and if you're going to tear the parking lot up and then redo that, it's probably a good time to determine where that dumpster needs to be and put it away properly. Mr. Yono: Yes. Mr. Caramagno: That all the questions and comments I've got. Mr. Wilshaw: Are there any questions from the Commissioners? Mr. Long: I'm not sure it's for the petitioner. I'm not familiar with this body approving anything without seeing color. I am supportive of the petitioner's desire to do things here. I'm not comfortable just giving a blank check to the possibility of anything. So is it appropriate to put in some condition where the Planning Department can approve that or is this something where as a body we want to see it? Mr. Wilshaw: There is no requirement that we approve the colors of materials, but typically, we do like to see that and we do like to make those recommendations to City Council. So we can let it go to City Council without that information and they can address it. We could have that has a callback item perhaps if we wanted to see that again. It's really up to the discretion of the Commission as to how they want to proceed. Mark, do you have any thought on this? Mr. Taormina: I think you could provide some guidance in the resolution consistent with the statements of the petitioner that the neutral earth tones colors be submitted to the Council for verification as part of its review of this plan. I think that would be appropriate in this case if that's something the petitioner can provide soon since this will be scheduled to go in front of City Council probably in two weeks, but we would hold it from going to Council until such time that the information is provided. June 5, 2018 28623 Mr. Wilshaw: It would give the petitioner a few weeks to hammer that out. Mr. Taormina: Yes, I would say a rendering of the building. If they change it a shade or two, I mean that's something that we usually deal with at the time permits are issued. Oftentimes we see site changes but as long as it's generally consistent with the renderings that are submitted at the time. I know that's been an issue we discussed recently on other projects. Mr. Wilshaw: Does that sound acceptable, Mr. Long? Mr. Long: Yes, it does. Thank you. Mr. Wilshaw: Are there any other questions for our petitioner? Hearing none, is there anybody in the audience that wishes to speak for or against the granting of this petition? Seeing no one coming forward, a motion would be in order. On a motion by Caramagno, seconded by Priddy, and unanimously adopted, it was #06-37-2018 RESOLVED, that the City Planning Commission does hereby recommend to the City Council that Petition 2018-05-08-04 submitted by Ayar Construction requesting approval of all plans required by Section 18.58 of the City of Livonia Zoning Ordinance #543, as amended, regarding a proposal to modify the exterior appearance of the existing party store (Levan Wine Shop) at 36217 Plymouth Road, located on the southeast corner of Plymouth and Levan Roads in the Northeast 1/4 of Section 32, be approved subject to the following conditions: 1. That the exterior modifications as depicted on the exterior elevations plan identified as Sheet A-1 dated May 1, 2018, as revised, prepared by CJP Engineering & Design, LLC, is hereby approved and shall be adhered to, except that color renderings showing earth tone colors for the materials shall be submitted to City Council prior to the Study Meeting; 2. That all rooftop mechanical equipment shall be concealed from public view on all sides by screening that shall be of a compatible character, material and color to other exterior materials on the building; 3. That the parking lot shall be repaired and restriped as necessary to the satisfaction of the Inspection Department. June 5, 2018 28624 Parking spaces shall be doubled striped at ten feet (10') wide by twenty feet (20') in length; 4. That all light fixtures shall be repaired or replaced as necessary to the satisfaction of the Inspection Department. All light fixtures shall not exceed twenty feet (20') in height and shall be aimed and shielded so as to minimize stray light trespassing across property lines and glaring into adjacent roadways; 5. That only conforming wall signage is approved with this petition; 6. That no LED light band or exposed neon shall be permitted on this site including, but not limited to, the building or around the windows; 7. That a fully detailed landscape plan and a plan to enclose the site's trash dumpster shall be submitted for approval to the Planning Commission within sixty (60) days following approval of this petition by the City Council; 8. That unless approved by the proper local authority, any type of exterior advertising, such as promotional flags, streamers or sponsor vehicles designed to attract the attention of passing motorists, shall be prohibited; 9. That the ice machine and propane exchange containers be moved to the west side of the building; 10. That all excess window signage shall be removed; 11. That all debris and magazine racks shall be removed from the site; 12. That the specific plans referenced in this approving resolution shall be submitted to the Inspection Department at the time the building permits are applied for; and 13. Pursuant to Section 19.10 of Ordinance #543, the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Livonia, this approval is valid for a period of ONE YEAR ONLY from the date of approval by City Council, and unless a building permit is obtained, this approval shall be null and void at the expiration of said period. Mr. Wilshaw: Is there any discussion? June 5, 2018 28625 Mr. Caramagno: The things that we talked about tonight regarding the debris around the back of the building, the signage off those windows, the ice machine, the propane, the magazine racks in the parking lot chained to the sign, that's all really got to be addressed and addressed properly by you folks or the owner. You also need to bring, as we talked about a few minutes ago, some colors in here for the Council to look at so we understand what this building is truly going to look like other than just a black and white drawing here. Mr. Ayar: We're going to make it look classy. We're going to stick to the original colors, like a light brown with a dark brown or a light gray with a modern look. So nothing funky. Nothing that's going to pop out loud. It's going to be something that's going to be very nice. Nothing out of the ordinary. Mr. Caramagno: I just hate to see you get turned away by the next step down the road because you don't have a color chosen, or a couple of colors to show them. We asked you for it for this meeting, and we didn't see it. And I understand you might not have made a decision, but I would suggest that you have a decision made by the time you get to City Council. Mr. Ayar: When is City Council? Mr. Caramagno: Mark will let you know. Mr. Taormina: We will work with the petitioner on it. Mr. Wilshaw: Typically, it's going to be at least two to three weeks, but if you need extra time to get these colors selected before that, they can always hold that until you have that information. Mr. Ayar: Okay. Very good. No, we're not going to need more time. Mr. Wilshaw: They will work with you. I want to make sure that we've incorporated all of the elements that were discussed. Mr. Taormina, Mr. Caramagno rattled off a nice list of items here. Cleaning up the debris, the excess signage on the windows being removed, the ice machines and propane being relocated. There was discussion about a dumpster enclosure being incorporated into an additional phase of construction. I assume you've been able to capture most of that? Mr. Taormina: We've got it all. June 5, 2018 28626 Mr. Wilshaw: Mr. Caramagno, just as a point of order, do we want to provide in the motion any recommendation that the colors be earth tones or at least give them some guidance? Mr. Caramagno: Sure, in conjunction with what they've already spoken of. Earth tones, yes. Definitely. Grays, browns. Mr. Ayar: Would samples be okay to bring? Mr. Caramagno: Absolutely. Yes. Mr. Wilshaw: Definitely. We just want to make sure we don't end up with a hot pink building or something. Mr. Ayar: No worries about that. We're not going to put all this money and go with hot pink. Mr. Wilshaw, Chairman, declared the motion is carried and the foregoing resolution adopted. It will go on to City Council with an approving resolution. ITEM #4 PETITION 2018-04-02-10 FELDMAN AUTO Mr. Caramagno, Secretary, announced the next item on the agenda, Petition 2018- 04-02-10 submitted by Feldman Automotive, Inc. requesting waiver use approval pursuant to Section 11.03(g) of the City of Livonia Zoning Ordinance #543, as amended, to construct and operate a used auto dealership with outdoor display of vehicles (Feldman Pre-Owned Superstore) at 33850 Plymouth Road, located on the north side of Plymouth Road between Farmington and Stark Roads in the Southeast 1/4 of Section 28. Mr. Wilshaw: I will just announce that this item is currently on the table. We did receive communication from the petitioner asking that the item remain on the table so that they can make a future meeting. This item will remain on the table until our next meeting on June 26. Sir, you have a question? We will ask your name and address for the record. William McEvoy, 33900 Wadsworth, Livonia, Michigan. The Feldman Automotive, that's what I was interested in. I wanted to bring to the attention of the Planning Commission on the northwest and north end of that property, there is an open and active drainage ditch that serves our property presently. It could be a problem with flooding in the spring if that drainage is disrupted. June 5, 2018 28627 Mr. Wilshaw: The plans right now, of course, we don't have them in front of us to talk about it, but we've seen the plans for this item. The drainage retention pond is going to remain in the northern section of the property. That will be unaffected. They are going to continue to maintain that. That should help. Mr. McEvoy: That open drainage ditch now it goes under Farmington Road. From there I have no idea where it goes, but I've lived there for 47 years and that open ditch has provided spring drainage when we have the raining season. Mr. Wilshaw: Definitely. That pond system will remain. It will discharge underground into the Wayne County system slowly as it normally would. If you are interested in getting more information about this item, because the petitioner wasn't here and asked to have the item remain tabled, that's why we're not discussing it tonight. We always honor their request. We will be taking it up again in three weeks, June 26. So if you're interested, we can always have you come back that day if you're available and we can talk about it some more. Mr. McEvoy: All right. Thank you. I appreciate it. Mr. Wilshaw: Thank you for coming.
