AM, -6- Commission members a site drawing of the proposal including 9 parking stalls . He already has an established business in the St. Anthony area with 300 customers and most of his employees coming from the community. Though he will lease the property from Mr. Hedlund, he has an option to buy and "would certainly not leave his present location if I wasn't certain of staying" . The Health Depart- ment had already inspected the building and said there is sufficient water and sewer service to support a beauty salon but had told him of other improvements he must make including sheetrocking the walls, installation of an energy efficient water heater as well as sterili- zation and sanitation of the building. Mr. Morris intends to change the exterior facade of the building to either stucco or rough cedar and will comply with any requirements for landscaping, desiring "to make the property more attractive for both his customers and the community". He plans to remove the existing garage on the property which is 'hn eyesore" which should leave more room for parking. Mr. Berg told the Commission there were several points regarding the P.U.D. which must be clarified for this proposal. He mentioned he had been unable to get a firm response from Mr. Ames as to whether. he plans to proceed with his townhouse project to the north of the existing residence which leaves open the possibility that the property might revert to a commercial usage . The question of whether the requirement for the Letter of Credit applies in part or wholly to the development of this site had received differing intrepreta- tions from staff and it is not clear whether the parking requirements for the commercial component of the P.U.D. apply equally to the lot in question. The Commission members estimated at least 12 parking spaces should be required to serve both the potential customers and the employees of the shop. Kenneth Lee was present and said he proposes to build a house directly east of the Hedlund site and he and Mr. Morris have reached an agreement concerning the screening between the properties. Mr. Morris indicated he was also willing to comply with other City requirements regarding the parking, landscaping and signage for the building as well as lighting of the property at night. He showed a rough drawing of the sign he would like to erect. The question of whether this sign might constitute a major portion of the signage_ permitted the entire commercial component of the P.U.D. was another point requiring clarification. - The Chairman assured Mr. Morris that he "wants him to stay in the City" and suggested when he returns with a formal application, he should include the stipulation that the garage will be removed as well as the addressing of the lighting he ,p.roposes as well as the parking he. will provide, with 12 stalls suggested. For his presentation he advised him to have the site plans for the proposal indicating the landscaping specifics as well as those for signage. He told him. the signage at the Goodyear Tire -company across Silver Lace Road is . an example of the type of- signage which has been acce table..to the City in the pas . Mr. Morris thanked the Commission for the helpful suggestions they .,had given him and said he intends,.to improve the property: so it will be a credit to the community.
