Chief Govoruhk stated that the City would prefer to have the builders maintain grass and flowers on the lots or put in some plants and grass but they should also put in some system of watering so that these areas would not dry up and die. Mr. Quinn stated that they would use only low maintenance plants and flowers that would not require much water as there is no system for watering at this time. Mr. Cowell stated that by code, maintenance of all existing plants and new plants would have to be done to keep them in good condition. Mr. Cowell questioned the sign. After a discussion between Mr. Jim Robinson, Mr. Quinn and Mr. Cowell as to the fact that the new sign was over the height and would have to be located farther back from the roadway, it was decided to leave the existing sign base and only put a new fact on it. The sign that is on the building will be changed to look as the free standing sign. Mr. Cowell moved to approve the Shop and Go. Seconded by Chief Govoruhk. Vote: all aye, motion carries. FOREIGN AUTO PARTS Applicant: Joe Riley Mr. Smith questioned the requirement of a block wall to run along on the southern border and the western border to the edge of the building. Any landscaping that is to be done in the back corner will have to have the elevation raised so that water will not stand in the corner. Mr. Hassler stated that a minimum 12 inch difference in elevation would make the property drain in the right direction. Street lighting was discussed and it was stated that a street light was on the edge of the property~ There will be flood lights on the building, at the corners for parking lights. The lights will be on at night. Mr. Smith questioned the necessity of a tank on the property. Mr. Cowell stated that if there is a valve on the pump to connect a hose to in case of fire, this would be sufficient. Mr. Cowell stated that he liked the color of the building and the landscaping. There will be white striping for DOT. There will be a handicapped sign. Mr. Hassler said that the storm drain should be identified and a depth and percolation rate defined.
