PLANNING CO~~ZA2ISSION MEETING April 13, 1965 Village Ha11 ~dembers present: Plant, Libby, Larson, Otis and Black Members absent: Mrs. Berdie, Ohman, Hindermann The Larpenterrace .Apartments proposal was re-submitted by Harry Goeman and Clarence Lowe with the p rovision for right-of~ray for Hoyt Avenue along the ~y: south end of the lot. The nepr proposal shows 1.38 parking stalls per housing unit. This requires a variance from the 1.5 parking stalls as required by the ordinance. Regarding the Larpenterrace proposed apartments: - - Gordon Nelson of the fire department reviewed plans for access of fire equipment and location of fire hydrants. He recommended four hydrants along east access road distributed uniformly near entrances to structures. Larson suggested that lights be provided in the parking lots and parking stalls be provided with receptacles for enging heaters. Parking stalls should be plainly marked. It is recommended to the Council that approval of the conditional use permit be made, that the variance to the parking ordinance be approved providing that the garages be eliminated to provide ten additional parking spaces. (Ratio: of parking stalls to housing unit will then become l.l~2.) It was felt that diversity of parking in an apartment development of this size will probably not require as many parking spaces as will a smaller one. It is suggested that the building inspector should check with the fire chief on hydrant and access requirements. Adequate lighting should be provided for al.l parking lots. Lindig proposal or sketch was not approved because of insufficient information on sub-division I.
