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 2022-02-02-04 Shake Shack Mr. Caramagno, Secretary, announced the first item on the agenda, Petition 2022- 02-02-04subrnitted by Shake Shack Michigan, L.L.C., requesting waiver use approval pursuant to Section 6.03 of the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance to utilize an SDM liquor license (sale of packaged beer and wine products for consumption off the premises) in conjunction with the operation of a Class C liquor license (sale of beer, wine and spirits for consumption on the premises previously approved for the subject property pursuant to Council Resolution #228-93) in connection with the operation Aprit 12, 2022 30462 of a new freestanding full -service restaurant at 39300 Seven Mile Road (Shake Shack), located on the northeast corner of Seven Mile and Haggerty Roads in the Southwest'/4 of Section 6. Mr. Taormina: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. This is a request to utilize an SDM liquor license that would allow for the sale of packaged beer and wine products for consumption off the premises. This proposed SDM license would be done in conjunction with a Class-C liquor license at the recently opened Shake Shack restaurant, which is at the corner of Seven Mile and Haggerty Roads. The zoning of the property is C-2 (General Business). This site was approved for a Class-C license in 1993, when it was originally developed as Romano's Macaroni Grill. No special requirements or conditions were imposed by the city at that time, thus, the waiver carried over to Shake Shack allowing it to operate a Class-C license at this location without the need to go back through the waiver process. However, the 1993 approval does not apply to the requested SDM license and is the reason why they are before us this evening. Section 6.03 of the zoning ordinance specifies that no SDM licensed establishment shall be within 500 feet of an existing SDM licensed business. There are no SDM licensed businesses within 500 feet of this Shake Shack. Additionally, that same section of the ordinance specifies that SDM licensed establishments must be located at least 400 feet from any church or school, No schools or places of worship are located within 400 feet of the proposed restaurant. With that, Mr. Chairman, I can read out the departmental correspondence. Mr. Wilshaw: Yes, please. Mr. Taormina: The first item is from the Engineering Division, dated March 3, 2022, 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 waiver use at this time. The proposed project parcel is assigned the address of #39300 Seven Mile Road. The existing building is currently serviced by public water main and sanitary sewer, as well as private storm sewer. According to the proposed plans, there should not be impacts to the sanitary sewer or water main. It should be noted that the developer may be required to obtain a permit from the Wayne County Department of Public Service should any work occur within the Seven Mile or Haggerty Roads right-of-way." The letter is signed by David W. Lear, P.E., Assistant City Engineer. The next letter is from the Livonia Fire & Rescue Division, dated March 3, 2022, which reads as follows: "This office has reviewed the site plan submitted in connection April 12, 2022 30463 with a request for sales of packaged liquor in a commercial building on property located at the above referenced address. We have no objections to this proposal." The letter is signed by Greg Thomas, Fire Marshal. The next letter is from the Division of Police, dated March 9, 2022, 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 Scott Sczepanski, Sergeant, Traffic Bureau. The next letter is also from the Division of Police, dated March 24, 2022, which reads: "We reviewed the plans submitted by Shake Shack Michigan, L.L.C., requesting waiver use approval pursuant to Section 6.03 of the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance to utilize an SDM liquor license (sale of packaged beer and wine products for consumption off the premises) in conjunction with the operation of a Class C liquor license (sale of beer, wine and spirits for consumption on the premises previously approved for the subject property pursuant to Council Resolution #228-93) in connection with the operation of a new freestanding full -service restaurant (Shake Shack) at 39300 Seven Mile Road, located on the northeast corner of Seven Mile and Haggerty Roads in the Southwest % of Section 6. After reviewing the plans with the Chief of Police, we have no objections to the waiver being granted, contingent that the petitioner complies with: All State Laws, City Ordinances, Stipulations and conditions set by the Livonia Police Department Liquor Investigation Unit as approved by the Chief of Police, Stipulations and conditions set by the Traffic Bureau of the Livonia Police Department." The letter is signed by Jeffery Ronayne, Seargent, Special Services Bureau. The next letter is from the Inspection Department, dated April 1, 2022, 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. The next letter is from the Finance Department, dated March 14, 2022, which reads as follows: "I have reviewed the address connected with the above noted petition. The following amounts are due to the City of Livonia: Unpaid water and sewer charges: $ 381.54 Total Due City of Livonia $ 381.54" The letter is signed by Connie Kumpula, Chief Accountant. The next letter is from the Treasurer's Department, dated March 9, 2022, which reads as follows: In accordance with your request, the Treasurer's Office has reviewed the name and addresses connected with the above noted petition. At this time there are no taxes due, therefore I have no objections to the proposal." The letter is signed by Lynda Scheel, Treasurer. That is the extent of the correspondence. April 12, 2022 30464 Mr. Wilshaw: Do we have any questions for our planning staff? I don't see any questions. Our petitioner's representative is here? If you want to come forward, and we'll start the meeting by asking that you give us your name and address for our record. Patrick Howe, 280 N. Old Woodward Ave., Ste. 12, Birmingham, MI 48009. As mentioned by Mr. Taormina, Shake Shack has recently opened a brand-new store. It's off to a great star and they would like to offer on premise consumption of alcohol, which is permitted by right, as described. And with the wave of delivery services, they'd like to offer beer and wine to go. So, that would be the reason we're here for a waiver use request. and that would be both takeaway. So, if you go in order your meal, and you want a few cans of beer or a bottle of wine to go, that would be available to you, or through any of the modern delivery services that they offer. Beer and wine can be ordered through various different platforms and delivered by a person trained in the proper service of alcohol. So, there's a mechanism for that through the liquor commission with a third -party facilitator. With that, I'd be happy to answer any questions. This service of beer and wine to go will fit with their other operations in Michigan, which are in Detroit, Troy, Rochester Hills and Ann Arbor. So, thank you for your support tonight and I am happy to answer any questions you have. Mr. Wilshaw: Thank you, Mr. Howe. We will see if we have any questions. Ms. Smiley? Ms, Smiley: Good evening, I understand you to say that the other restaurant or Shake Shacks have this? Mr. Howe: They do. Yeah, Ms. Smiley: And then you said that you're not liable like to check, you know, when s being delivered? Who delivers your food? And what kind of, you know ... what they... is it no longer your responsibility? Mr. Howe: So, our employees could deliver food on the state law with beer and wine, or we can engage with third party facilitator that's licensed by the Liquor Commission and they fall under their jurisdiction and oversight. So, they have to be trained in the proper service of alcohol through a Tips or Sery Safe program. And so, they would, you know, make sure that the order is accurate when it leaves the building, and then they match the person that ordered it to the person at the door and check ID and they have to report back and keep all records on that. So, pretty much every restaurant I license these days gets an SDM license. It's just a part of the process for restaurants. Whether it's a fine April 12, 2022 30465 dining restaurant that offers takeout, or a quick service restaurant that has delivery, it's just part of a restaurant's operation with a real increase in delivery. Ms. Smiley: an you. an you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Wilshaw: Thank you, Miss Smiley. Any other questions for our petitioner's representative? Mr. Long? Or. Long: Thank you. I know we talked about this at the study meeting, but since all the other Michigan stores do this, but this wasn't requested at the initial startup of this location, can you talk about why this wasn't brought to us all at the same time? Or. Howe: I don't have a great answer. It was missed by the initial site plan permitting team. I was brought in after the fact and identified. We didn't need the waiver use for the Class-C and it was sort of grandfathered, and I think it was assumed by somebody that the beer wine takeaway was also grandfathered. That was revealed to not be the case, and so we filed right away and here we are. Yeah, just indicative also, this isn't their main business. I mean, their main business is great milkshakes, burgers, hotdogs, fries. So, this is an accessory component. They're open and operating without alcohol, and this will kind of complete the package. Mr. Long: So, the so the so clean it all up and get you in line with all the other stores? Mr. Howe: That's correct. Mr. Long: Okay. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Wilshaw: Thank you. Any other questions for petitioner? Mr. Caramagno: You just talked a moment ago about your hamburgers and shakes and burgers, and at what percentage is the beer and wine, either inside or carry out sales of the business? And obviously, you don't have it here, but you have other stores, what is the percentage of alcohol sales? Mr. Howe: Don't quote me on this, but I'd say it's less than 5%. You know, maybe on a higher vibe store with more alcohol, it's five to 10%, but I'd say it's less than 5%. April 12, 2022 30466 Mr. Caramagno: And how does the store compare with the others in Michigan, as far as a business? Is it busier? Is it low end mid range? High end? how does it compare? Mr. Howe: I visited the store...) was there before it opened, and I visited there last week just to drive by and it's quite a drive thru operation. So, in my personal opinion, I'm a lawyer, not a business guy, it's going to be real high volume with takeout. With that said, you can't buy alcohol through the drive thru. So, if you want alcohol, you need to come in and that's the state law. You have to come into the store and take it away. So, there'll be no alcohol through the drive thru. So, I think you know, with this traffic pattern and intersection and office traffic, they're going to do a great business with Drive Thru, without alcohol. Otherwise, with all the retail around it, I think it's going to be great for dining as well. A very large outdoor patio, which would be licensed as well for on premise consumption, so yeah, I think it's a great location. They're really excited to be here. And this would finish it off. Mr. Caramagno: Thank you. Mr. Wilshaw: All right. Any other questions? Just to dovetail off of some of Mr. Caramagno' s questions, I do believe the drive thru component is fairly new for Shake Shack. I don't think they...I think this is a sort of a new concept, or fairly new for them. Mr. Howe: Yeah. Mr. Wilshaw: So, this is one of the few locations that has drive-thru at this point, but one of the questions that was asked was about the percentage of sales. Just to give a broader picture, what percentage of the stores in the chain serve alcohol nationwide? Mr. Howe: My understanding all where it's permitted and not cost prohibitive. So, you know, we're buying a license, it's a pretty significant investment. I think it's around $60,000 to $70,000 for this license, so it's very important to them. With that said, there's only a handful of beverages on the menu. I mean, two to five beers at a time and two to three wines at a time. So, it's not a huge selection, but it's rotated. They sometimes offer local, you know, craft products, or something that, you know, they kind of steer through their flagship out of New York, they're based in New York, so they'll bring in some type of Brooklyn Lager or something like that. So, wherever it's permitted and not cost prohibitive, they like to offer this. April 1 Z 2022 30467 Or. Wilshaw: Okay, so I think it's probably safe to say that this is not the exception to the rule. This is more in line. Mr. Howe: VolYexactly. Or. Wilshaw: Okay. Great. Thanks. Any other questions from anyone on this petition? Is there anyone in the audience wishing to speak for against this item? I don't see anybody coming forward. Thank you, Mr. Howe. Or. Howe: Thank you. Or, Wilshaw: If there's no other discussion, I'm going to close the public hearing and a motion would be an order. On a motion by Long, seconded by McCue, and unanimously adopted, it was #04-20-2022 RESOLVED, That pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held by the City Planning Commission on April 12, 2022, on Petition 2022-02-02-04 submitted by Shake Shack Michigan, L.L.C., requesting waiver use approval pursuant to Section 6.03 of the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance to utilize an SDM liquor license (sale of packaged beer and wine products for consumption off the premises) in conjunction with the operation of a Class C liquor license (sale of beer, wine and spirits for consumption on the premises previously approved for the subject property pursuant to Council Resolution #228-93) in connection with the operation of a new freestanding full -service restaurant at 39300 Seven Mile Road (Shake Shack), located on the northeast corner of Seven Mile and Haggerty Roads in the Southwest'/4 of Section 6 the Planning Commission does hereby recommend to the City Council that Petition 2022-02-02-04 be approved for the following reasons: 1. That the subject site has the capacity to accommodate the proposed use. 2. That the use of an SDM liquor license will complement the existing use of the subject property and will provide an additional service to customers, and 3. This waiver use is granted to this petitioner only, and any new user of this property is required to seek and receive City Council's consent to such user's operating the subject facility prior to occupancy by such user. April 12, 2022 30468 FURTHER RESOLVED, That notice of the above hearing was given in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.13 of Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance. Mr, Wllshaw: Is there any discussion? Mr. Wilshaw, Chairman, declared the motion is carried and the foregoing resolution adopted. It will go onto City Council with an approving resolution. ITEM #2 PETITION 2022-03-02-05 Rose Entertainment Mr. Caramagno, Secretary, announced the next item on the agenda, Petition 2022- 03-02-05 submitted by The Rose Entertainment Venue L.L.C., requesting waiver use approval pursuant to Section 6.51 of the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance, to operate a full -service restaurant at 27494 Grand River Avenue, located on the north side of Grand River Avenue between Inkster and Eight Mile Roads in the Northeast 1/4 of Section 1. Mr. Wilshaw: Mr. Long? Mr. Long: Mr. Chair, due to a business relationship I have with one of the parties involved in the transaction and in order to remove any bad appearances, I will be recusing myself from items two and three on tonight's agenda. Mr. Wilshaw: Understood and we'll have that noted in our minutes. Thank you. I have it noted that Mr. Long has stepped down from the Dyess and we go to Mr. Taormina for our background. Mr. Taormina: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. This is a request to operate afull- service restaurant with live entertainment and outdoor seating. This property is at the southwest corner of Inkster and Eight Mile Roads. The property is roughly two acres in size. It has 314 feet of frontage on Eight Mile Road, 256 feet of frontage on Inkster Road, and 300 feet of frontage along Grand River Avenue. As you can see from this zoning map, the site is zoned C-2 (General Business). The property contains a 22,800 square foot commercial building that is currently divided into three units. The proposed restaurant, which measures roughly 10,000 square feet, would occupy the space that is in the center of the building. The current plans show seating for a total of 166 persons, including 138 interior seats and 28 outdoor patio seats. The floorplan shows a dining area with a moveable stage surrounded by tables, chairs and booths. Also shown is a coat room, a bar, office, restrooms, kitchen and an entertainers lounge as well as April 12, 2022 30469 three dressing rooms. In terms of the outdoor seating, there are two dining patios shown along the west side of the building. One on either side of the main customer entrance. Both of these patios would be enclosed with fencing, as well as planters, although the plans do not provide any details on the enclosure. If alcoholic beverages are to be served on these patios, they must be fully enclosed with fencing and be accessible directly from inside the restaurant. The current plans do not show how this would be accomplished. The petitioner is proposing to offer live entertainment and it was described to be in the form of comedy, poetry and music. Section 6.14 of the zoning ordinance, pertaining to dance halls and ballrooms, specifies that these types of establishments cannot be located within 300 feet of any residential district or church. No homes or houses of worship exist within 300 feet of the subject site. The proposed hours of operation would be from 1lam to 2am, Monday through Friday, and then 10am to 2am, Sunday and Saturday. Parking required for restaurants is one space for each two interior seats, one space for each three outdoor patio seats, and one space for each employee. With 138 interior seats, 28 outdoor patio seats, and at least 20 employees, the use would require a total of 100 parking spaces. The building's other two units, because they are commercial in nature, require parking based on a ratio of one space for each 150 square feet of usable floor space. Combined, the other units would require 67 parking spaces, and together the proposed restaurant plus the two other units require 167 parking spaces. The submitted site plan shows 111 available parking spaces, resulting in a deficiency of approximately 58 parking spaces. Access to the site would not be changed. Currently there are three driveways. One along Eight Mile, one on Inkster, as well as one on Grand River. The site plan shows only one enclosed dumpster area that would be across the building's south elevation. No details are provided as to the construction materials, or the height of the proposed enclosure. For site lighting, the plans do not indicate any information. However, the elevation renderings show large roof mounted floodlights. The property contains very little green space or landscaping. The plan shows two new trees in the landscaped islands on the west side of the site. In addition, a semicircular planting bed is shown on the east side of the building within the right-of-way of Inkster Road. Other than signage, the petitioner is not proposing any changes to the exterior of the building. Signage has not been evaluated with this petition. One or possibly two wall signs would be allowed, the size of which is determined by the amount of frontage of the restaurant. The site is not allowed a ground sign due to the fact that the building is deficient in its front yard April 12, 2022 30470 setback. With that, Mr. Chairman, I can read out the departmental correspondence. Mr. Wilshaw: Yes, please. Mr. Taormina: The first item is from the Engineering Division, dated March 11, 2022, 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 waiver use at this time. The existing parcel is assigned the address of #27500 Grand River Avenue. The existing building is currently serviced by public water main and sanitary sewer, as well as private storm sewer. According to the proposed plans, there should not be impacts to the sanitary sewer or water main. It should be noted that the developer may be required to obtain a permit from the Road Commission for Oakland County (RCOC) or the Michigan Department of Transportation (MOOT) should any work occur within the Eight Mile Road or Grand RiverAvenue right- of-way's." The letter is signed by David W. Lear, P.E., Assistant City Engineer. The next letter is from the Livonia Fire & Rescue Division, dated March 31, 2022, which reads as follows: "This office has reviewed the site plan submitted in connection with a request to construct a commercial building on property located at the above referenced address. We have no objections to this proposal with the following stipulations: Owner must bring suppression and fire alarm system up to code. Provide another means of egress to the outside. A further detailed plan review will take place when this division receives an official plan set." The letter is signed by Brian Kukla, Fire Marshal. The next letter is from the Division of Police, dated March 17, 2022, 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 Scott Sczepanski, Sergeant, Traffic Bureau. The next letter is from the Inspection Department, dated April 1, 2022, which reads as follows: "Pursuant to your request, the above referenced Petition has been reviewed. 1. The proposed plan is a change of use and would require a full set of plans and documents, prepared by a licensed design professional, to be submitted for review. This would require that the proposed space must conform to all current barrierfree codes, building codes and all mechanical codes and standards. This will be addressed further at time of plan review if this project moves forward. 2. The drawing only shows one conforming egress door. This would limit the occupancy to a maximum of 49 persons. 3. The proposed petition appears to be an assembly use (A-2) per the Michigan Building Code. This would require the space to have a fire suppression April 12, 2022 30471 system, fire alarm and fire rated barriers installed between adjacent spaces to code. 4. Parking would be deficient with this use. This deficiency would require a variance from the Zoning Board of Appeals. This Department has no further objections to this Petition." The letter is signed by Jerome Hanna, Director of Inspection. The next letter is from the Division of Police, dated April 1, 2022, which reads: "We reviewed the plans submitted by The Rose Entertainment Venue L.LC., requesting waiver use approval, pursuant to Sections 6.22 and 6.51 of the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance, to operate a full -service restaurant and to utilize a Class C liquor license (sale of beer, wine and spirits for consumption on the premises) at 27494 Grand River Avenue, located on the north side of Grand RiverAvenue between Inkster and Eight Mile Roads in the Northeast quarter of Section 1. The review of the plans determined that the request does not comply with the separation requirement guidelines. El Nibble Nook at 27725 Eight Mile (690 feet) and Mulligan's Pub 27406 Eight Mile (300 feet), both hold an active Class C Liquor License and are well within the one thousand (1,000) foot separation requirement distance of the proposed site. In addition, we also noted that there is no direct access to the interior of the building from the outdoor patio. We would recommend that the Planning Commission and City Council maintain separation requirement guidelines. It is our opinion that these guidelines are good for local establishment businesses and maintains Livonia's family atmosphere." That letter is signed by Jeffery Ronayne, Special Services Bureau. The next letter is from the Finance Department, dated March 15, 2022, which reads as follows: "I have reviewed the addresses connected with the above noted petitions, including 27488 Grand River, 27494 Grand River and 27500 Grand River. The following amounts are due to the City of Livonia: Unpaid water and sewer charges (27488 Grand River): $ 141.33 Unpaid water and sewer charges (27500 Grand River): $ 249.71 Total Due City of Livonia $391.04" The letter is signed by Connie Kumpula, Chief Accountant. The next letter is from the Treasurer's Department, dated April 4, 2022, which reads as follows: In accordance with your request, the Treasurer's Office has reviewed the name and addresses connected with the above noted petition. At this time there appears to be no delinquent taxes due, therefore I have no objections to the proposal. (I say appears as the amount shown as due was through March 31, the payment was made on April 1. It is a Wayne County decision on if there will be additional interest due.) 2021 Real Property Summer and Winter Taxes: Summer Bill issued on July 1, 2021 and Winter Bill issued on December 1,2021 Due now through March 31: $29,957.29 - Paid on 4-1- 2022 to Wayne County Treasurer Additional Information: The 2020 Real Property Summer and Winter Taxes were just PIF to April 12, 2022 30472 the Wayne County Treasurer on March 1, 2022 in the amount of $32, 577.58. Real Property Taxes have NOT been paid on time to the City of Livonia since the 2018 Winter Tax Bill." The letter is signed by Lynda Scheel, Treasurer. Next we received an email this evening, from Felicia Heard, which reads: "To whom it may concern, This email is regarding the new venue "Rose entertainment " who will be located at 27494 Grand river. We are a Franchise Wendys located at 27526 Grandriver Livonia Mi , 48125. The franchise owner is concerned about this new venue having enough parking . How many parking spaces will be available for your customers? Due to us having limited space for our customers, we do not want any over flow of your customers parking on our property. Please advise - Thank you "That is the extent of the correspondence. Mr. Wilshaw: Thank you, Mr. Taormina. Any questions for our planning staff? Ms. Smiley. Sure. Ms. Smiley: Did I understand that they said because of this change of use, the capacity would be 49 people? Mr. Taormina: That is based on the Inspection Department's very cursory review of the information that they have available at this time. I am sure it was based on the location and spacing between the egress doorways. Ms. Smiley: Okay, thank you. Mr. Wilshaw: All right. Good question. Any other questions for our planning staff? If not, I believe our petitioner is in the audience. You're welcome to come to our podium. Good evening, we want to welcome you to our meeting. I ask that you start with your name and address for our record. John Adams, 28147. East Kalong Circle, Southfield Michigan, 48034. Mr. Wilshaw: Excellent. Thank you, sir. Is there anything else that you'd like to present to us? Mr. Adams: The owners just gave me a paid receipt for the water for $249.71. Mr. Wilshaw: Okay. Mr, Adams: I got the tax bill right here. This is for water too. So, this is the same thing, $249.71. April 12, 2022 30473 Or. Wilshaw: Okay, that's taken care of. Mr. Adams: I wasn't able to acquire any additional parking spaces. Mr. Wilshaw: Okay. Mr, Adams: I solicited places around in order to acquire any at this moment. Mr. Wilshaw: Okay. Mr. Adams: I've still got some people outstanding. They will get back with me. But as of this moment, I haven't heard. Mr. Wilshaw: Okay. Mr. Adams: And then the fire suppression system...) did talk to a guy but he wouldn't be able to come out until May 19th. Mr. Wilshaw: Okay. Mr. Adams: To actually check it. Mr. Wilshaw: All right. Excellent. And I know that we did have quite a discussion in our study meeting regarding your petition. So, I appreciate you following up on some of those items that we talked about at that meeting. Let me see if there's any questions from our commission for you and you can answer some of those. Ms. Smiley? Ms. Smiley: Yes, my question...good evening. My question is about the capacity, because I understood you to have more of an entertainment venue that you said 300 to 400 people. Mr. Adams: We would need to have more people. That's why I was trying to solicit to get extra parking. Since you guys only...like I said, Barry and the tenant, they wrote off their parking for us to give us that. I sent that with the initial plans. Barry say he don't need any parking, and then tint people said they only needed 10 parking...I mean, six parking spaces, because they do appointments only. So, it's only two people working there. As. Smiley: Okay. You are not even close. Especially... I'm looking at 138, capacity, and you want to actually do three times that. Mr. Adams: Right. As. Smiley: So, your parking would be... April 12, 2022 30474 Mr, Adams: I'm still out of whack. Ms. Smiley: That 's...I think you're at a non -starter. Okay. Thank you, Mr. Chair, Mr. Wilshaw: Thank you, Miss Smiley. Any other questions for our petitioner? Ms. McCue? Ms. McCue: I apologize, because I was not here last week, so I'm probably repeating, but talk to me a little bit about the fire suppression system and what your plan is. Mr. Adams: What they asked me is to make sure it's up to code and make sure it was working and make sure it's compatible for the capacity of the space and patrons I am going to have, so, because they don't know if it was made for that capacity. So, that's what I was going to have the person come out on the 19th to check it and let me know. Ms. McCue: Which is going along with what our fire department had recommended to be. Mr. Adams: Correct. Ms. McCue: Okay. All right. Thank you. Mr. Wilshaw: Any other questions for our petitioner? Mr. Caramagno? Mr. Caramagno: Good evening. It seems to me that there's quite a separation between what you want to do and where we're at tonight as you're looking for an approval here. There were a lot of things. Parking was a problem. Fire suppression was a problem. Capacity and exit egress doors on this property was a problem. I think there were some signage issues. I don't think you're quite ready for this moment tonight without having more answers for us. For me personally, it's virtually impossible to offer an approval through without any answers here. So, I just want to let you know that that's where I'm at with it. Mr. Adams: Okay. Ow Thank you, Mr. Caramagno. Any other questions or comments for our petitioner? Ms. Smiley? Ms. Smiley: Yeah, I agree totally with this other Commissioner Mr, Caramagno. I understand your dream and I understand you have April 12, 2022 30475 experience, but this is a very bad location or a bad venue. You don't have anywhere to go from... I mean, I'm just looking at the capacity. I mean, I don't want you putting a lot of money and energy in something that you can't make bigger, or you can't possibly get. Mr. Adams: Yeah, because the parking is...fion, what you guys said to code is, the parking is my issue. I won't be able to have the capacity of parking spaces for patrons that I'm trying to acquire. Ms. Smiley: Can you get that many people in this venue? Mr. Adams: Yeah, we can get that in there. Ms. Smiley: Have you explored some other locations? Mr. Adams: Not really. Just this one, because I thought it was perfect. It was centrally located around everything, but the parking is, from what you guys say, is going to hinder me? Ms. Smiley: Yeah, Mr. Adams: Because if I can't get 300 people in there, I can pay rent. Ms. Smiley: That's what you said, to get the entertainment and to create your dream, you're going to have to have a completely different setting. Mr. Adams: Yes. Ms. Smiley: Sorry. Okay. Thank you. Mr. Wilshaw: Thank you, Miss smiley, any other questions or comments? And just a question to kind of dovetail off of the parking issue, Mr. Adams, is it safe to assume that based on the nature of this business, being a place that people go for entertainment, concerts, music and comedy shows and so on, that you're going to have a fair number of your patrons that are going to come to this location, either individually in a car, or perhaps maybe two people in a car. It's not going to be, you know, carload of four or five people, typically. So, you're going to have a lot of individuals showing up needing more parking, essentially, right? Mr. Adams: Yeah, that could be possible because I mean, like sometimes you get two people, sometimes you get one, sometimes you get three, sometimes get two couples in the car. There is really no way of knowing, but the more parking the better. April 12, 2022 30476 Mr, Wilshaw: Right. Mr. Adams: You now what I'm saying. Mr. Wilshaw: Right, because I'm thinking I know a lot of people like to meet each other at a place like this and they hang out and enjoy themselves or couples come you know. Mr. Adams: I solicited the two places directly across the street. I solicited the school, Grammar Academy. I'm still waiting on the superintendent to call me. He was on summer break last week, spring break last week wherever they located in the state the superintendent is in, ad he hasn't got back with me yet. I solicited the pawn shop across the street, on the other side. I solicited the liquor store; I think it's Billy's liquor store. Mr. Wilshaw: Oh, yeah. Mr. Adams: Yeah, I solicited him, but he said he's in the process of trying to do something. So, he said, they're not going to let you use me because I'm trying to do something myself. Mr. Wilshaw: Right, right. We have worked with him. Mr. Adams: I even went down the street like a block down and solicited them. Its a beauty salon, a beauty school, and solicited them. I'm still waiting for the actual owner to get back with me. So, I did my due diligence. Mr. Wilshaw: Definitely. It sounds like you have, and we appreciate that. I do agree with the other comments that have been made that if you're looking to have 300 or 400 seats, which we didn't even evaluate that for parking requirements, and you're not even meeting the parking requirements for the 130 some seats, if you expand this to 300 or 400, it's really going to be... Mr. Adams: That's because you guys changed the ordinance at the first of the year or something? Or. Wilshaw: Right. Or, Adams: Okay. Mr. Wilshaw: Recently, but we've certainly always had parking standards in the community even before that, that would require a fair number of April 12, 2022 30477 parking spots that you're deficient, and so I don't know that it would have even worked either way. Mr. Adams: Yeah, because, like I said, I did my due diligence, I went to a few bars around there. I saw one place that 99 posted on their capacity, they only had 27 seats and seven parking spaces. Another one had 101, they only had 40 parking spaces, nd then that Hookah bar I went to, they only got four parking spaces. So, their capacity, say 89. So, what I'm saying, that's what I said. Did you use the same standard with them to come up with the parking spaces to determine the capacity? Mr. Wilshaw: it would depend on the use of the property as to what the parking standards are. Different types of businesses require different amounts of parking, but also when those businesses were approved. They may have been grandfathered from many, many years ago. They may have been under the previous ordinance, or they could be under the current ordinance. So, it's hard for us to answer that question right here for you. But, is there any other questions or comments from anyone on the commission? If not, I'm going to see if there's anyone in the audience wishing to speak for or against this? If so, you're welcome to come forward. I don't see anybody coming forward. Is there any other comments that you'd like to make, Mr. Adams, Mrs. Adams? Alright, you're good. All right. Well, in that case, I'm going to close the public hearing, and I'm going to ask for a motion. Thank you. On a motion by Smiley, seconded by McCue, and unanimously adopted, it was #04-21-2022 RESOLVED, That pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held by the City Planning Commission on April 12, 2022, on Petition 2022-03-02-05 submitted by The Rose Entertainment Venue L.L.C., requesting waiver use approval pursuant to Section 6.51 of the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance, to operate a full - service restaurant at 27494 Grand River Avenue, located on the north side of Grand River Avenue between Inkster and Eight Mile Roads in the Northeast 114 of Section 1, the Planning Commission does hereby recommend to the City Council that Petition 2022-03-02-05 be denied for the following reasons: 1.

That too many issues remain unresolved, including fire safety, patio access, parking, signage, landscaping, exterior lighting, and site conditions, such as repairs to the parking lot. 3. That the site lacks the capacity to handle the increase in intensity associated with the intended amount of seating of the proposed restaurant and would therefore be detrimental to and not in harmony with the character of the surrounding neighborhood. 4.

ITEM #3 PETITION 2022-03-02-06 Rose Entertainment (Liquor) Mr. Caramagno, Secretary, announced the next item on the agenda, Petition 2022- 03-02-06 submitted by The Rose Entertainment Venue L.L.C., requesting waiver use approval pursuant to Section 6.22 of the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance to utilize a Class C liquor license (sale of beer, wine and spirits for consumption on the premises) in connection with the operation of a new full -service restaurant at 27494 Grand River Avenue, located on the north side of Grand River Avenue between Inkster and Eight Mile Roads in the Northeast 1/4 of Section 1. Mr. Taormina: Since this is, as you mentioned, a companion petition to the item we just reviewed, I would just look for the commission to make a resolution at this time. Mr. Wilshaw: Okay. Yes, we got background information on this already, and the letters, the correspondence, also addressed to the Class-C license. So, I think we're in good shape there. Is there any questions for our planning staff from any of our commissioners? Anyone? Does our Petitioner want to come forward to speak regarding the classy license specifically? Okay. Anyone in our audience wishing to speak for against this item? I don't see anyone coming forward. So, if that's if there's no other comments or questions from anybody, I can safely close the public hearing, and I will ask for a motion.

ITEM #4 PETITION 2022-03-02-07 Clover Self Storage Mr, Caramagno, Secretary, announced the next item on the agenda, Petition 2022- 03-02-07 submitted by Clover Self Storage requesting waiver use approval pursuant to Section 6.58 of the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance to operate a truck and trailer rental business in conjunction with an existing climate -controlled, indoor self - storage facility and an outdoor storage yard for recreational vehicles at 28900 Schoolcraft Road, located on the north side of Schoolcraft Road between Inkster and Middlebelt Roads in the Southwest % of Section 24. Mr. Taormina: This is a request to operate the U-Haul truck and trailer rental business in conjunction with Clover Storage, which is on the north side of Schoolcraft just east of Middle Belt Road. This property is about 5.5 acres with 846 feet of frontage on Schoolcraft Road and an average depth of 285 feet. The zoning is M-1 (Light Manufacturing). Waiver use approval was granted to Clover Storage in 2016. The existing facility is two stories in height and totals approximately 112,000 square feet. Outdoor storage of RVs is provided in the fenced in parking lots, which are to the west and the east of the existing building. Truck and trailer rental facilities require separate waiver use approval under the provisions set forth in Section 6.58 of the zoning ordinance. The revised site plan shows seven (7) parking spaces for seven (7) U-Haul vehicles, which would be along the north property line directly behind the building. The distance from the rear of the building to the screen wall is approximately 34 feet. Parking for the trucks and trailers would require approximately 10 feet which would leave 24 feet for the two-way drive aisle. The proposed U- Haul storage spaces are located within the secured part of the site not currently used for parking. Space for approximately three (3) trucks is also available adjacent to the concierge island, which is on the east side of the building, for vehicles that are returned after hours. No existing parking spaces designated for either customers or employees would be affected by the U-Haul operation, and no other site changes or improvements, including to the elevation of the building or the site's landscaping, are proposed as part of this petition .With that, Mr. Chairman, I can read out the departmental correspondence. Or. Wilshaw: Yes, please. Aprit 12, 2022 30482 Mr. Taormina: The first item is from the Engineering Division, dated March 14, 2022, 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 waiver use at this time. The existing parcel is assigned the address of #28900 Schoolcraft Road. The existing building is currently serviced by public water main and sanitary sewer, as well as private storm sewer. According to the proposed plans, there should not be impacts to the sanitary sewer or water main. Should the developer need to make revisions to the existing leads, or do any work within the Schoolcraft Road right-of-way, they will need to submit Engineering drawings to this Department to determine if permits will be required." The letter is signed by David W. Lear, P.E., Assistant City Engineer. The next letter is from the Livonia Fire & Rescue Division, dated March 31, 2022, which reads as follows: "This office has reviewed the site plan submitted in connection with a request to construct a commercial building on property located at the above referenced address. We have no objections to this proposal with the following stipulations: Vehicles parked in spaces shall not interfere with the function of the sliding gates. Vehicles parked in spaces shall not obstruct fire department apparatus access to Fire hydrants, Fire Department Connection, or other drive areas where building access is needed. A further detailed plan review will take place when this division receives an official plan set."The letter is signed by Brian Kukla, Fire Marshal. The next letter is from the Division of Police, dated March 17, 2022, which reads as follows: `I have reviewed the plans in connection with the petition. I have no objections to the proposaUThe letter is signed by Scott Sczepanski, Sergeant, Traffic Bureau. The next letter is from the Inspection Department, dated April 1, 2022, which reads as follows: "Pursuant to your request, the above referenced Petition has been reviewed. This Departmenthas no objections to this Petition."The letter is signed by Jerome Hanna, Director of Inspection. The next letter is from the Finance Department, dated March 15, 2022, 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 Connie Kumpula, Chief Accountant. The next letter is from the Treasurer's Department, dated April 11, 2022, which reads as follows: `In accordance with your request, the Treasurer's Office has reviewed the name and addresses connected with the above noted petition. At this time there are no delinquent taxes due, therefore I have no objections to the proposal. 2021 Real Property Summer and Winter Taxes: Paid in Full Taxes due of $98,663,40 were paid to the Wayne County Treasurer on 4-8-2022. " The letter is signed by Lynda April 12, 2022 30483 Scheel, Treasurer. Lastly, we received an email from Thomaswals9(a)aol.com, dated March 30, 2022, which reads: "As a resident in this neighborhood for over 30 years, and therefore impacted by this proposal l object to the addition of rental business for trucks and trailers. As / recall this rental business was mentioned in the original proposal and rejected. Now that the storage business is in place, and construction is completed it is brought up again. The current proposal adds more traffic to the service drive and placement of the equipment on site will clearly be along the wall adjacent to the homes along the barrier wall. This will also require additional "security lighting" not currently installed. Therefore the additional lighting that will be of a height that it will cover above and add more lighting into our backyards along the aforementioned wall. For these reasons 1 implore the Planning Commission not to approve this waiver. Consider the Families and property of your affected residents. Thank You." That is the extent of the correspondence. Mr. Wilshaw: Are there any questions of the Planning Director? Mr. Long? Mr. Long: Mr. Taormina, according to the resident, this was brought up previous or when we initially approved this. I don't recall U-Haul being contemplated. Mr. Taormina: You know, when we received this email, which I failed to mention was on March 30, 1 read it. I did look at the minutes and did not see any discussion regarding this type of operation. Mr. Long: Okay. I didn't recall anything there. Thank you. Mr. Wilshaw: Good question. Thank you. Any other questions for our planning staff? As. Smiley: Yes, I see that there's no parking out in front now. The U-Haul trucks are in the back. Mr. Taormina: Yes. So, the new plan shows all of the U-Haul parking spaces behind the building. This is adjacent to the wall as was indicated. I've also highlighted this area near the concierge island as being the best location for returning vehicles. It was originally shown as a location for the storage of some of the vehicles, so on a temporary basis, this would probably be a good spot for those vehicles when they are returned, and when there's no other spaces available along the side of the building. April 12, 2022 30484 Ms. Smiley: And then my second question is, is there a lot of additional lighting in the back now? Mr. Taormina: They're not showing any additional lighting as part of this proposal. How the existing lighting affects the neighbors to the north, I'm not aware of any issues. Ms. Smiley: So, I guess my question is that it is just basically moving the seven trucks to the back of the storage unit. Mr. Taormina: That's correct. Ms. Smiley: And it should not have any impact on the residence behind there that you know of? Mr. Taormina: You'II recall that in addition to the five- to seven -foot -high masonry screen wall...I believe this area continues an extended screen. Does that include the area directly behind the building? I'm looking at the petitioner. I'll let him respond when his time is due. I do know that there are areas of the site where we extended the screen up much higher than just the missing wall and this might be one of those areas. I don't know if it extended all the way across the back or not. Kelly Denha, 4263 Sedgemoor Lane, Bloomfield Hills, MI. Mark also there are U- Haul vans and if you see them, they're lower and the impact... average storage company gets one customer a day. A very low impact. They approached us because of the visibility and because of the access to the freeway and our customers use U- Haul to bring their belongings there and it's very good for them to rent it there. So, U-Haul approached us. We had no intention of U-Haul, but we had so many U-Haul people asking us and the customers, it made a lot of sense, and so you will average one ... the traffic, it'd be one customer a day, one and they said that's high volume. We get one customer a day average. Storage customers about 30 a month average. So, it's so low impact. There's plenty of parking, and there will be absolutely no disturbance whatsoever. Mr. Wilshaw: And can we just get your name and address for our record? Or. Wilshaw: Thank you, Mr. Denha. We just want to make sure that we know who we're speaking to. Or. Denha: Thank you. April 12, 2022 30485 Or. Wilshaw: Thank you. And you did hear a question that was asked specifically regarding the height of the wall. Is that true that there's... Mr. Denha: I don't...I can't honestly ask...I can't answer that. I don't now exactly, but I can tell you that a lot of them are Vans, which are very low and it's below. Now there is some trucks that are higher. And I don't know if they're visible, but, you know, I mean if they want, we could put a few of the higher ones in the front, but we approached Mark and Mark... we gave him two plans. Do you want them up front? And to our preference, our preference is upfront, because we want customers at Schoolcraft to see U-Haul vans and say hey, I can rent a U-Haul there. But Mark... and we thought it's fine. We were going to get a little sign and web brochures and put them in the back so that they're not visible from the road. Mr. Wilshaw: Okay, thank you for answering that. Is there any other questions from any commissioners for our petitioner now that he has been introduced? No questions. Mr. Caramagno? Or, Caramagno: What is the total amount of vehicles? How many? Jr. Denha: Seven. Mr. Caramagno: Seven U-Haul vehicles. How many vans? How many trucks? Jr. Denha: You know, I can't answer that. I can tell you what ... they told me that it's half and half, three and three and four, because a lot of people don't...I saw the vans were... you can... there's no way you can see the vans. But there is some trucks but they're not semi - trucks. They are, you know, they're larger than the vans. Jr. Caramagno: And I would think that the vans are probably more popular than anything these days. Jr. Denha: Much more popular. They're so easy to drive. Everyone's not intimidated by driving them. That's exactly right. Jr. Caramagno: Sure. Okay, thank you. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Or, Wilshaw: Any other questions for our petitioner? If not, is there anyone in the audience wishing to speak for or against this item? I don't see anybody rushing forward. I have to offer that. Mr. Denha, is there anything else that you want to add before we make our decision? Mr. Denha: I thank you for your consideration. April 12, 2022 30486 Mr. Wilshaw: Thank you. sir.
