The following variations be granted: a)parking be permitted in the perimeter setback, b) the requirement for a Ibading berth be. waived because the build- ing will be specialized in use, except that if the'building's medical and dental occupancy" drops below 80% of-the total uses in the building, a load ing berth must be provided, c) wheel stops be'eliminated and the parking lot curbing be used instead, d) the sign be permitted'as depicted on the site plan, e). the landscaped screening requirements be'modified so as to permit (1) a fence along the northern boundary line.with the area in front of the fence being landscaped with deciduous bushes with no minimum height require - went, (2) the east west property lines to be planted with a mixture of de- ciduous and coniferous plantings of the required height, (3) the southern property line to be landscaped as.depicted, and f) the amount of required :open space be varied. r . 2.

On April 4, 1984, the Village Center Development Commission (VCDC) considered the request of Dr. Seifried regarding a medical - dental building at 710 -730 Osterman Avenue. On a vote of 7 -0, the VCDC recommended the' property be re- zoned, and approval be given for a Special Use /PUD and the'var.iations requested. Mr. Judd Missner, Pres. of Missner'& Lirtzman, stated that his company was in full- service contracting, real-estate design and development, and would be handling both the design and construction of,the proposed building. He pre- sented a site plan and discussion followed. Trustee Seidman inquired about the location of the driveway, and Mr. Missner introduced.Ms. Susan Best of Metro Transportation Group, Inc. who had made a traffic study and counseled on the driveway location. She stated'it would be at the far west end of the property, approximately 70' from the driveway at One Deerfield Place and about 160:'from the Post Office driveway. Mr. Missner-discussed the Plan Commission stipulation number three requiring screening for HVAC. He stated that the'roof top-variable volume equipment planned for the building was included in a large, sleek, . "sheet metal cigar box" which when painted the same color of the building simply faded into the main structure. Screening would only enlarge the roof top equipment and make.. it more noticeable. The Board generally agreed with Mr. Missner s' opinion. He asked permission to erect a stockade fence as well as plantings along -the east and west parking lots to protect the`adjourning'homes from car head- lights. He felt that good relations with the neighbors 'justified the extra' expense. He added that they had more than the required parking spaces and that 8 parking spaces would be landbanked along the front lot line and planted with low vegetation.. He inquired how those spaces might'be recaptured if needed ; for more parking. Attorney Stucko stated that the provision and mechanics could be written into the Special.Use ordinance. Mayor Forrest asked Mr. Missner if he could live with the"recommended'stipula -" tions. Mr. Missner replied that he could._ Thereafter; Trustee Marty moved, seconded by Trustee Seidman, to:'1) accept the Plan Commission's recommendation, with the exception of.stipulation'number 3,'2).permit.the' erection of a stock- ade fence along the'east' and west boundaries to the'end of the parking spaces, and 3) approve the preliminary,-. plan, and 4) accept the recommendation of the VCDC.

Also,'.the'Street Fund will spend a bit more than budgeted for Salt and Vehicle Maintenance. The Garage Fund has spent more than anticipated for Motor'Vehicle Supplies. However., there is suf- ficient revenue in both funds to cover these extra expenditures. The current budget,-'.if amended to reflect. these changes, will be in sound legal form for auditing purposes.

Motion carried on the following vote: AYES: Jackson, Marty, Seidman, Swanson, York (5). NAYS: None (0) Trustee Seidman asked what Board action should be taken regarding proposed State legislation which would be costly to municipalities if enacted. Mgr.. :Franz replied that he felt that at the very least a letter should go from cha,Mayor i regarding;.•.the proposed bills, especially the Plumbing Act which is of grave con- cern to municipalities, as well as the act,for increases i pensions, and the Mandates Act. The Board favored sending•'a letter from the in at once, and Mayor Forrest concurred. Discussion was had regarding the unexpected appearance of the Commons Shopping Center at the public hearing on April 12 regarding the'Deerf.ield Federal Savings and Loan petition for a drive -thru. The..Commons, wished to discuss a proposal to expand the Jewel Food Store which would require use of the Savings and Loan property for a new access to the shopping center. Neither the Staff nor the Plan Commission were aware that the Commons had presented such a proposal to the Savings and Loan, sometime in the past, and that the Savings and Loan had rejected it as.of no'advantage to them and profiting only the Commons. The Plan Commission delayed the hearing on the Savings and Loan petition for two weeks, until April 26, to permit the Commons to confer with the Savings and Loan to see if something mutually beneficial to them and the Village could be worked out. While it was the consensus of the Board that. the Commons should have a chance to work out something..:_,' and be heard by'the Board, the Savings and Loan should not be unnecessarily delayed. Mayor Forrest stated that the Plan Commission Chairman had assured ..him that he will press fora decision at their..Ap.ri].26 meeting :.so_it.::can%be':forwar..ded' to-:.the'.-Boa :its May 7 meeting.
