Arline Dic reported she had also seen many accidents on that service road. She was also concerned that lighting from the restaurant monument sign would be shining right into their townhome complex if the restaurant is allowed to stay open late at night. The Chair told Mrs. Dick all lighting on the restaurant sign would be directed north and south and not in her direction. She was also reminded that the City ordinance required the restaurant to be closed between 1:00 A.M. and 6:00 A.M. Mrs. Dick indicated that she was "still opposed to the sign on Silver Lake Road because none of the other businesses had them and she could see no reason why "all of a sudden we have to have this one. " Hargmerite Andreason. Gladys Johnson, and Bernice Pehling from the townhouse complex were also present to oppose the proposal. Mr. Sikora responded to these objections by indicating: *the removal of some of the concrete from around the five trees in the island would probably cause them to grow better; *shrubbery in the island would probably be damaged by the snow plows; *confirmed that the service road was not a public road and belonged to Apache and said he could see where early in the morning before the mall is open thee might be problems on the sloped roadway; *however, said he was certain Apache would also be made painfully aware of any accidents which occurred because the first place those involved in an accident would go would be to the Apache office to complain; *perceived most drivers like himself would avoid making a left turn into the northbound Silver Lake Road traffic from the service road; *he agreed that a large shopping center like this one generated a lot of traffic for residential streets but thought putting up a light at that intersection would be possible but rather improbable because of the cost; *in relation to the lighting from the restaurant shining int the townhome windows, he said - that the lighting proposed for the sign on the. building was not the type which projected out and the neighbors would probably have a hard time .discerning the difference between the restaurant lighting and the lighting which is already present in the parking lot. When Commissioner Hansen commented that he perceived the decision to .put the restaurant in that particular location must have been strictly the Rein Company's and he questioned the statement that the center couldn't put in a curb cut to service a building which would be closer to Silver Lake Road. 13
