ATTORNEY COLLINS*ASKED IF THE ZONING COMMISSION HAS APPROVED MR. BERG'S SUGGESTED AMENDMENTS, BECAUSE HE THOUGHT MR, BERG HAD SAID THEY TURNED DOWN HIS PROPOSED ORDINANCE. MR. BERG EXPLAINED THAT HIS ORIGINAL RECOMMENDATIONS COVERED ABOUT 12 PAGES. THE AMENDMENTS HE IS DISCUSSING TODAY ARE JUST MEANT TO "PLUG THE HOLE IN THE DIKE," AND THE ZONING COMMISSION HAS APPROVED THEM. CHAIRMAN WODTKE ASKED WHO APPROVES THE OFF—STREET PARKING REQUIREMENTS NOW? MR. BERG FELT IF THERE WOULD BE A SERIOUS IMPACT ON TRAFFIC OR SOIL CONDITIONS OR RUN—OFFj IT FIRST WOULD BE PRESENTED TO THE TECHNICAL REVIEW COMMITTEE FOR REVIEW. FINAL APPROVAL IS DONE BY THE PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION. COMMISSIONER SCHMUCKER STATED THAT HE SEES A LOTS OF THINGS LACKING — TYPES OF MATERIALS, PAVING STANDARDS, ETC. HE NOTED THAT PARKING LOTS DO NOT REQUIRE THE SAME MATERIALS A ROAD DOES, AND ASKED IF MR. BERG IS SAYING THAT WHETHER A PARKING LOT IS TO BE PAVED OR NOT WILL BE LEFT TO THE DISCRETION OF SOME BOARD? COMMISSIONER SIEBERT FELT WE SHOULD REQUIRE PAVING, BUT SHOULD SET CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE IT WOULDN'T BE REQUIRED RATHER THAN LEAVE IT TO SOMEBODY'S DISCRETION AS TO WHETHER IT SHOULD BE PAVED OR NOT. MR. BERG STATED THAT HE HAS SUBMITTED THE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE ENGINEERS IN THE AREA FOR THEIR COMMENTS AND HAS RECEIVED QUITE A FEW COMMENTS AND A BREAKDOWN OF TYPES OF MATERIALS, BUT HE FELT MATERIALS SHOULD BE PART OF THE BUILDING CODE AND NOT PART OF A ZONING ORDINANCE. CHAIRMAN WODTKE INQUIRED WHETHER THE BOARD WISHED TO AUTHORIZE ADVERTISING THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT AND HAVE THE ATTORNEY DO SOME FURTHER WORK ON IT IN THE MEANTIME OR WHETHER THEY WOULD RATHER HAVE THE WORK DONE BEFORE AUTHORIZING THE ADVERTISEMENT. COMMISSIONER SCHMUCKER STATED THAT HE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE BOARD DO SOME FURTHER WORK ON THIS BEFORE AUTHORIZING THE ADVERTISEMENT, AND THE BOARD AGREED. e. JUN 2 1 197 82 800K 35 FAuE 19;)
