SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE REVIEW:
The application was discussed by the Committee. Engineering
reported that the applicant would bear one-half of the cost
of building a lane due to the City's signal improvement
project at Riverdale. He was asked to get with Engineering
regarding curb cuts and parking. He agreed to give more
information on the use of the building.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION:
The applicant was present. No one objected. The revised
plan was submitted which eliminated one curb cut and
specified the future building as a Quick Lube or liquor
store.
Staff recommended approval of this plan, subject to redesign
of the parking area if the future building is used as a
Quick Lube.
A motion to this effect was made and passed by a vote of:
7 ayes, 0 noes and 4 absent.
