West will agree to restrictions such As screening and placement of the driveway and parking lot but does not want to amp say he will use the House for anything specific. Ernest Combs director of the rec said that in a planned development District property owners must be specific about their intentions. Combs believes objecting to such a control nullifies the plan. But rec members and Forest heis West a attorney think the zoning Law is not Clear on what is required for be planned retail business that is whether one has to be specific on the use of the property. Richard j. Sauers Secretary of the Anderson a amp a said that group rejected the plan for reasons that dealt with the Groll property specifically. A a shortage of parking for the proposed seating capacity was cited particularly in that overflow parking were not available nearby. That the proposed restaurant usage would have a detrimental effect on the adjoining c zones to the East and South due to the nature of the business and the late hours of operation As Well As the excessive depth of penetration South of Beechmont were the other reasons for the denial. A also noted was use of a six foot High berm to screen the parking area from the adjacent residential area of a recommendation for approval been made. Sauers statement for that group said a the consensus of the commissioners in discussions preceding and following the voting was that the two parcels were not suitable for residential use add would ultimately be used com medically. A sentiment was expressed that the commission would be receptive to an e zoning on the West property and a double letter usage on the Groll property with a usage that was conducted primarily during the daytime prior to voting.
