Everhardt reported <br />EICH AUTO that Mr. Joe Eich has passed away and his daughters are probating <br />SALES the estate of their father and will be running the business. Everhardt <br />indicated that in researching the property as part of the probate action, <br />they learned that Mr. Eich has a CUP for enclosed retail sales. Everhardt <br />reported that Mr. Eich operated a used vehicle sales lot in its present <br />location for over 20 years. She noted that vehicles have never been <br />enclosed. <br />In order to continue the operation of the current business, Everhardt <br />reported that the daughters of Mr. Eich, Nicole Luciw and Michele <br />Misiak, have applied for the CUPs as well as a waiver from screening <br />requirements. Everhardt indicated that the property has had problem with <br />theft and the building has been broken into, therefore, they are requesting <br />that screening on the rolling gate not be required to provide a view into the <br />lot. The fenced areas on either side of the gate would be screened with <br />landscaping planted in front of these areas. Again, the request is that the <br />gate area not be screened. <br />-4- <br />19 <br />
