Item B: Hamilton Partners (Kunas Farm) request for landscaping in overhang parking per Section 3.94 (B) of the Zoning Ordinance. Berlinghoff requested that the paved portion of the 2 ft. overhang parking along the perimeter of Nerge and Meacham and along the main entrance way be landscaped. Berlinghoff stated that instead of paving the entire length of the stall (19 ft.) , only 17 ft. would be paved with a front portion of 2 ft. as overhang which would be landscaped. Berlinghoff stated this alteration would affect every outer stall and along the main drive, about 10% of the total stalls. The Commission asked how this would affect snow removal . Berlinghoff stated that this change would not impede snow removal efforts. Berlinghoff also noted that this will give them more area along the main entrance corridor for landscaping. Berlinghoff stated the 2 ft. overhang will also be used to provide for the gradual grading area for the 8 ft. drop to the shopping center. Commissioner Henrici expressed concerned about the aisle space where the strip center fronts Nerge Road. Berlinghfoff stated that area can be excluded; however, he will return if a problem arises. Commissioner Henrici motioned to approve the request excluding the shopping center frontage along Nerge. This issue will be discussed under the landscaping plan if needed.
