Additional cars will be parked on Lot 17, said Mr. Gasparovic. This would be ample room for parking if it is complied with, he said, and aloo complies with the Zoning Ordinance. '; Dr. Brady inquired if there was anyway that the police can see that there should be a certain number of cars parked in the lot. Counsel stated that the Zoning Board can restrict the number of cars to be parked• •Mr. Blasi stated that if the variance is granted, it would be granted as per the plan presented. If it is violated, it will be on the same purpose as the permit issued by the inspector, said Mr* Blasi* The Inspector would be in a position to either file a notice of violation or to pressure whatever remedies are available in the law or Zoning Ordinance, said Mr. Blasi* \ Mr. Blasi stated that he understands the Neighborhood Association would have some questions and qualms, however, the Village passed a new ordinance which created the setback change* Mr* Blasi stated that Mr* Matspn, the architect, is trying to make an improvement of the build: ^, This•would eliminate the throwing of debris, etc*, said Mr* Blasi* If it were a new building and we wanted to come in within five feet, then thejfe might be cause for complaint, said Mr* Blasi* The existing building is five feet from the line, said Mr# Blasi. .> .Mr. Swaby inquired as to what is the usage now as far as the occupancy is concerned and how many cars * are being parked in the building and pn the parking lot there now. \ i *- Mr. Gasparovic stated that there were no requirements at the time _ because it was non-conforming* An agreement had been made with Mr* Kissling to park 15 cars* Mr* Swaby stated that this would not relieve the congestion on New proadway* Mr. Patten stated that he consulted with the Chief of Police and was told that there was no way legally to force employees to park on the lot. �* -3 Dr. Brady pointed out that we-were not interested in the parking, Mr. Blasi stated that his client would instruct the employees to park in the lot. As far as the parking plans are concerned, there are more than enough, said Mr, Blasi. If the Trustees want to pass regulations there is nothing we can do about it,said Mr. Blasi. Mr. Friere stated that the variance being asked has enough spaces sufficient for parking. In answer to a question by Mr. Patten, Mr. Friere stated that we as a* Board would never stop property owners from building. If the building was not already on the property, we would not even consider the setback. All the property owner is doing is asking for the building to go straight up, said Mr. Friere. ; Mr. Blasi stated that Mr. Benny Ginnetti, adjacent owner, brought out a point whereby he did not care to have the windows facing his property. Acccv- !ing to the plans, the windows are on the north side, however, if Mr. Ginnetti does not want them on that side, a solid wall would be made instead, said Mr. Blasi. It was thought that the windows would be more attractive, said Mr* Blasi. < In summing up, Mr. Friere stated that there are enough spaces for parking in this request for a variance and it could be stipulated in the variance that they must park in their lot. It would be up to the building inspector to report any violation and have a summons issued. ^Counsel Chessari stated that if the Board decides to grant the variance, it can impose certain conditions• It would be a must that Mr. Kahn, as well as Mr. Kissling, would have to direct their employees to pkrk across the street in the*other lot, said Counsel. Mr. Friere informed the applicants that the Board will make a decision at a future date. \The Board reconvened in executive session and it was stated that before a decision is made, a plan of the lot on North Broadway should be submitted to the State Dept. of Public Works for their approval for egress and ingress.
