The properiy owner had indicated a willin�ness to expand his parking loi by four stalls, hovvever this would require a variauce a.mendment and the execution af a limited use a�eement between the property o�mer and ihe City. The Commission was provided with a resolution to resirict parking on the east side of Greenfieid Avenue from the corner of Greenfield and Cour�ty Raad I to the northernmost driveway of the apartment �omplex, hov✓ever �he Commission did not feel the paxking restriction vvould resolve anything and staff was directed to bring back to the Commission additional f: '� information pertaining to distances from the corner and potential impacts to prope�°ties fu�ther SOUt�I O�triB COTrieT. �ISCILSSlO�'1: Staff inspected the area and took measurements relative to the distances from the corner of Greenfield Avenue and County Road I. The first measurement was to the location of the first proposed "No parking from I�ere to Corner" sign, just north of the northernmost driveway access to the apartment compiex. The second measurement was a 300-foot setback, then a 354-foot setback, and lasYs a 500-faot setback. These locations are rnarked respectiveiy on the attached map as locations A, �, C and D, Based on the discussion from the las� meeting, the Commission has already indicated thai Location A, about 150 feet from the corner, was unacceptable. Location B, at 30a feet from the comer, is situated across the street from the 7556 Greenfield Avenue, north af its driveway by perhaps 30 %et. There are no obstructions on the east side df Greenfeid at this spo�. Location C, 350 feet from the carner, is located almost directly acr�ss from the property line be�vveen 7656 and 7644 Greenfield. While there are no obstructions on ihe east side of Greenfield at this point, the driveway for'i656 Greenfield is at the south end of the lot and vehicles parked on the streei could be an obstruction for resider�ts backing out of the driaeway onto Greenfieid.
