Trustee Berman stated that he will not vote to re-zone this B-3;he does not consider this parcel appropriate for B-3 development. Trustee Braiman agrees with Trustee Berman;he will only refer this proposal as O&R;he is concerned with the neighbors to the west,as well as all the other neighbors;he believes both the landscaping and the appearance of the building need a lot of work and he would like the Plan Commission to take particular interest in those factors. Trustee Kahn agrees with previous comments,however,he believes that it is incompatible regardless of zoning and he believes the zoning should remain as is. Trustee Trilling also agrees with previous comments,and he also believes that the design is very uninspiring;he would refer under O&R so that the Plan Commission may review. Trustee Johnson believes that it is a fine use of this corner;he could not vote for a referral under B-3 because there are too many underlying zoning uses that would be grossly incompatible with that area;to summarize—no B-3, O&R maybe,possibly R-3 with a special use.
