MINUTES CITY COUNCIL JANUARY 27, 1999 Fahey felt that a written agreement was needed with Slumberland acknowled~ing that Mr. Frattalone has the right to install the buffering and agreeing that they will not remove it. Frattalone pointed out that when Slumber(and developed, the property to the south was also zoned Industrial-Park, therefore, Stumberland was not required to buft'er. However, given that the property to the south is now zoned R-2, Frattalone did not be(ieve Slumberland would have the ability to remove buf~'ering. Morelan stated that he felt the City could prevent Slumberland from removing the buffer, but did not feel the City could require Slumberland to add to the buf~'er. Morelan felt that the City needed a written a~reement from Slumberland indicating that the existing berm would remain or be relocated should they proceed with the expansion of their parking lot. More(an suggested that, otherwise, an option would be to require the berm on the Pitrina Park site. Frattalone reported that about 85% of the berm and trees are located on the Slumberland property. Frattalone pointed out that he is agreeable to completing the landscapin~ on the eastern edge of the berm by August 1, 2001 if Slumberland does not proceed with the parkin~ lot expansion. Frattalone stated that he acknowledged the questions raised by the Council and indicated that he could ~;o to Slumberland to ask for the agreement the City wants. Fahey suggested that Frattalone either obtains the agreement from Slumberland or else revise the plat to show the berm on his property. Frattalone pointed out that the berm existed on the Slumberland property and that as part of the Pitrina Park development he extended the berm about 300 feet. He had also proposed to plant trees all the way down the length of the berm. Frattalone pointed out the ponds he has installed on the property that would make it difficult to move the berms onto his property unless he used retai,ning walls. Frattalone stated that there is some room near Lots 1 and 2 to move the berm further onto his property. Frattalone presented a landscape plan for Pitrina Park Terrace Third Addition. However, it was noted that the additional landscaping for the berm was not shown on the plan. Fahey sug~ested that the plan be modified to include that landscaping.
