between a bar and a gym near max trucks in a very busy shopping center so in regards to the
mac trucks they are long-term parking they're not in and out often so what you're imagining
isn't the case it's not ideal to have it be industrial um in the back of the facility but
once you're kind of in the area you realize that you don't need to ever be in the back
quite often. And those Mack trucks aren't moving. There's maybe, I think, I think maybe bi-weekly
they'll come park a car there that won't move for two, or excuse me, a Mack truck that won't move
for two or three weeks. This is long-term parking and storage. Okay. For the trucks. And then had
you ever considered consolidating the property into one address and building one bigger commercial
building we uh yes i think the arch uh harman deutsch can speak to that or we're nowhere
we uh yes i think the arch our harman deutsch can speak to that or when we're open to it i think it
comes with a lot of implications um such as an elevator and multiple staircases and things of
the sort which we wouldn't be able to afford like we're a small family office we're paying this out
of pocket you mentioned financiers earlier uh we don't have those which is why we're being very
very conscious of different construction costs and the implications of the zoning code
we did we did look we did have discussions after the first uh community group meeting
um and before the second uh and after the first zoning board hearing was scheduled about
consolidating it but as amir said um there there's some implications costly implications to that and
russ and all or can come on and speak to that if you want to have him address that no i understand
the cost of elevators yeah okay any other questions it's not off the table but it's it's not likely
questions or comments from the virtual audience
our attorney i'm sorry i mean my god i how did i forget that go ahead um no no questions i just
want to note that because we received the revised plans um this morning they haven't had i haven't
had a chance to to review them so i just asked that the board maybe hold this for a week just
so we can review the revised plans and also we didn't know there was a corrected refusal
we were able to pull that but we just need to determine what based on the board's decision what
provides those would be appropriate thank you all right questions or comments from the virtual
audience i see no hands at this time chair planning commission chairman thank you uh
good morning david fecto with the city planning commission chairman we're going to enter our
testimony for both if that's okay with you sure okay uh chairman and board members the comprehensive
plan recommends a change in zoning at this location from ca2 auto-oriented commercial to
cmx3 commercial mixed use uh the city planning commission was going to enter a recommendation
to deny the proposed residential use variances however since the appellants have changed their
plans the city planning commission recommends the board grant the proposed variance from the
parking requirement in the zoning code okay um mr may i just say one thing if it were to be changed
to cmx3 then the off-site parking that we would have at alimov would would address that and would
eliminate that refusal sure okay so i i think when council started he talked about he's in
conversation with the councilman's office am i correct i'm sorry say what i'm sorry i didn't
understand i wasn't sure if you were talking about taylor here to me listen to me you started
your conversation off today saying that you were in conversation with the councilman's office
and if we waited till thursday or friday you would know where they stand i didn't i didn't
i didn't say that i said i talked to them yesterday and they were hearing waiting to
hear from neka and i haven't been able to hear from them wait a minute wait a minute you did
say you were talking to them right so i said i talked to you with them i said i had a conversation
with them yesterday that's what i said you were in conversation with the councilman's office you
wouldn't know until thursday or friday no i didn't say anything about thursday or friday
you didn't no i don't no i don't because i don't know anything about there he's waiting to hear
from neca okay and i haven't and i haven't been able to reach neca either all right so
we're we're going to hold this anyway because of what our attorney said is next wednesday okay yeah
hillary that's fine um and i would say the record is closed except for if there's any communication
from the rco or the council that's right regarding their position um and then any if there is that
communication we'll accept a response from mr orphan eating right okay all right thank you
