Humpert stating they were not opposed to this petition. Mr. H. W. Curtner stated that at this time he would like to have permission to construct a Drive-In Restaurant.

Mr. Harold Walburn, 11000 Hubbell asked whether the access to the building will be both from Plymouth and Hubbell Roads. Mr. Ventura stated there was not a plan showing the egress and ingress but from the plans available it does not show access from Hubbell Road. Mr. Walburn stated he does not object to the Drive-In Restaurant but he and his neighbors are concerned with the problem connected with this use. Stated in this particular section along Plymouth Road in front of the proposed Drive- C,^ 1fl In Restaurant there has been two deaths and several car accidents. There is not a stop light in that whole mile. Hubbell is a dead end street. Flood lights, noise and litter might be objectionable to adjacent property owners.

Mr. Curtner stated the number of other uses permitted in this particular type of zoning. Mrs. Nielsen asked the number of people who live in the immediate area on Hubbell. Mr. Walburn stated there are 11 families on Hubbell. Mr. Ventura stated he had discussed this petition with Mayor Hartom and had been informed that he is in the process of appointing a committee to study Drive-In Restaurants and that the said committee will be appointed shortly after the first of the year. Recommended that this petition be tabled until this committee is appointed and commission has obtained recommendation from them. Mr. Ashmore stated he has written another city for their ordinance on gas stations and Drive-In Restaurants. Mr. Greene asked that a letter be written to Chief Harmon asking him to elaborate on his letter giving his reasons for differentiating between the three uses. Mr. Harsha stated a light has been promised at Merriman and Hubbell for some time. Stated that if something is in the offering then perhaps this will eliminate some of the objection. Mr. Ventura suggested that the residents take this matter to the Traffic Commission. Mr. Ashmore stated a petition has been filed with the Traffic Commission for such a light. Upon a motion duly made by Mrs. Nielsen, seconded by Mr. Harsha and unanimously carried, it was RESOLVED that, petition by H. W. Curtner, H. W. Curtner Agency for permission to erect a Drive-In Restaurant on part of Parcel D$ located at 30915 Plymouth Road situated on the Southwest corner of Plymouth and Hubbell Roads in the Northwest 1/4 of Section 35 be tabled until the commission has obtained report from committee which is to be appointed by Mayor Hartom to study Drive-In Restaurants as a whole. The Chairman declared the foregoing resolution adopted.

Formal decision will be announced when Briefs are in. This is a separate law suit on its own merits. i. 1 The secretary read the petition by J. J. Rinehart, Highland Oil Corporation for permission to construct a retail gasoline service station on Lots 1 through 5 inclusive, Elmdale Subdivision located on the Northeast Corner of Middlebelt andive Mile Roads in the Southwest 1/4 of Section 13. The secretary read letters dated December 27, 1954 from Calvin Roberts, Chief Livonia Fire Department and portion of letter dated December 28, 1954 from Robert Baumgartner, Sergeant Livonia Police Department. Messrs. E. R. Swartz- enberg, Evangalos Karvalos and Mr. Hamilton (representing property owner) were present. No one was present opposed to this petition. Mr. Swartzenberg stated that the Highland Oil Corporation's object was to serve people who carried Credit Cards and to develop property along lines of good business. Submitted for commission's inspection photographs of existing condition of property. Stated service station business is highly competitive and that it is necessary to get on the corners. Mr. Ventura asked the worth of the station when it is completed. Mr. Swartz- enberg stated it cost $30,000 for the land and $70,000 is the total cost. Stated it would be a two bay station. Mr. Salinas asked if the house presently on property will be torn down. Mr. Swartzenberg stated it would and that it has been condemned. Mr. Hamilton discussed the type of zoning now in effect in t he area. Stated on 100' property it is impossible to develop any type of shopping district and have sufficient off-street parking. Stated he has been trying to see reasons why this differential between gasoline stations and other businesses. Mr. Ashmore stated that in Connecticut there has been adopted by 75% of cities an ordinance regulating Drive-In Restaurants and gasoline service stations. Feeling is that they are different than other businesses. They have regulated the frequency in a given area. Mr. Hamilton stated property is 100 x 100 with 20' alley in the rear. Mr. Greene asked Mr. Ventura whether commission was going to table all Drive- In Restaurants and gasoline stations until commission has report from committee and an ordinance. Mr. Ventura stated the Drive-In Restaurant is a different situation and that he would not make the same recommendation for gasoline stations as he did for the Drive-In Restaurant. Mr. Swartzenberg stated it might be possible to purchase an additional 20' and that there is ample off-street parking for their needs. Stated the station is leased to operators on a 30 day basis and that stations are for business and business only. Upon a motion duly made by Mr. Robinson and seconded by Mr. Greene, it was RESOLVED that, pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held the City Planning Commission does hereby grant the petition of J.

Mr. Bilger stated the station will cost $32,000 and that it will be a Socony Vacuum Station. Mr. Salinas asked what was on other corners. Mr. Bilger stated two corners are vacant and there is an existing gas station on the third. No one was present opposed to the petition. Mr. Greene stated that everytime the commission considers this location the matter of traffic hazard is presented. This is another instance where a traffic light may solve the problem. Mr. Greene asked whether the motion should include the incorporation of a fire hydrant as recommendated by the Fire Department. Mr. Salinas stated the commission cannot force petitioner. Upon a motion duly made by Mr. Salinas, seconded by Mr. Harsha and unanimously carried, it was RESOLVED that, pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held the City Planning Commission does hereby grant the petition of Earl E.

The secretary read letters dated December 27, 1954 from Calvin Roberts, Chief Livonia Fire Department and dated December 27, 1954 from Hugh Wood, Jr., Chief Inspector. The secretary announced that he had been informed that a representative of the Redford Township Zoning Board had looked at the proposed subdivision plat and had stated he had no objection to said plat. Mr. Mark T. Jacobson was present and submitted letters dated August 11, 1954 addressed to C & M. Engineering Company from Mayor Elbert M. Hartom; dated November 22, 1954 addressed to Edward Rose & Sons from Herald Hamill and dated February 4, 1954 addressed to Lester French, Director of Public Works from Herald F. Hamill regarding storm and sanitary sewers. The secretary read these three letters as presented by Mr. Jacobson. Mr. Jacobson stated he had petitioned the City Council for paving of Deering between Curtis and Six Mile Roads and that said petition was denied by the Council until the area has been platted. It is the desire of Edward Rose & Sons to pave both sides of Deering. Mr. Harsha asked what property would be used for pumping station. Mr. Jacobson stated when letter was written the location of pumping station was not of consequence. Probably would be located on Deering. Mr. Ventura asked whether the School District has purchased school site. Mr. Jacobson stated they have indicated they want 15 acres and have agreed as to the location but have not moved to purchase it. Mr. Ventura stated he had received call from Mr. Michaelson and that he in- formed him there was no facilities to house children that come into this area. Mr. McCain stated the School Board has not been able to get down to basis with Edward Rose and Sons. Mr. Jacobson stated there had been only one meeting and that was with Dr. Brem- beck. Mr. McCain stated they have asked for price and that they feel offer should come from owner and not the School ➢bard. Mr. Jacobson stated they have given price but not in writing. Mr. McCain stated they have had very little cocageration and that in Section 16 they had to have their own engineer arrive at a legal description of property owned by these same people. Have had to resort to condemnation in this section. Mr. Jacobson stated it was not a lack of cooperation on Edward Rose and Sons part but on the School Board part. Have written letters to Dr. Brembeck which have not been answered. Mr. McCain stated letters have been turned over to attorney. Mr. Ventura stated Edward Rose and Sons and the School Board should have a firm agreement before plat is acted upon. Mr. McCain stated the School Board will be having a meeting Thursday night at which time they would appreciate representative of Edward Rose and Sons. Mr. Ventura stated that before the commission again takes up this plat that there should be a letter informing commission of negotiations. Mr. Jacobson stated that the plat itself should no- have to wait for agreement. Mr. Steinhoff asked the feeling of Mr. McCain on backing up of houses to school site. Mr. Ventura referred to the letter by Chief Roberts regarding fire hydrants and the fact that a plan was not submitted. Mr. Jacobson stated it was his understanding improvement plans are submitted after tentative approval of street layout. Cannot make utility plans until street plan is approved. Mr. Ventura read Section 3.02 of the Subdivision Rules and Regulations and stated Chief Roberts was within his rights asking for such a plan. Mr. Ventura asked whether the proposed plat has been submitted to the County Road Commission inasmuch as it is bordering on a County Road. Mr. Jacobson stated they have seen it in referrence to the sewers but not in referrence to the plat itself. Mr. Ventura read from State Platting Law where if a subdivision plat is bordering on a county road it must have the approval of the County Road Commission. Mr. Jacobson stated in most municipalities the County Road Commission approves plat when it goes through the recording pro— cedure. Mr. Ventura stated the County Road Commission should have something to say at this point. Mr. Ashmore stated the County Road Commission has requested that any plat on county road be submitted to them prior to approval. Mr. Salinas asked their interest in plat. Mr. Ashmore stated from traffic standpoint and ingress and egress to subdivision. Mr. Harsha stated the commercial area as shown on the proposed subdivision plat is 500 x 500 and the zoning map does not show area to be this large. Mr. Jacobson stated a larger shopping center in their opinion was more desirable than small center. Mr. Ventura stated that in the proposed subdivision houses are siding on Six Mile Road and yet on the South side they are fronting on Six Mile Road. The Commission has been critized for this in the past. Mr. Jacobson stated he would much rather back houses up to Six Mile Road and Inkster Road if the commission would agree. Stated that they would endeavor to work this out but if it is not feasible will bring back the way it is. Mr. Greene stated that they have had criticism on the School Advisory Board regarding lots that back up to a school site such as indicated on the sub— division plat. Mr. Jacobson stated that having streets on four sides of school would increase traffic. Mr. Salinas stated he could not see what would be accomplished by backing houses up to Six Mile Road. Mr. Ventura suggested commission members look at subdivision on North side of tm' Joy Road between Beech and Inkster Roads which has houses backing up to main road. A poll was taken toascertainthe commissionts feeling on houses backing up to Six Mile Road in which it was unanimous that this be done. Mr. Steinhoff stated it would create better parking situation with streets around school. Mr. Ventura stated he did not see necessity of through street such as Bennett. Mr. Steinhoff questioned how the house would set on Lot 94. Mr. Jacobson stated it would face on Bennett in theory. Mr. Steinhoff stated he would like to have letter from Mr. Kunze regarding newer. Mr. Ventura asked where the storm water would go. Mr. Jacobson stated branch of Bell Creek. Mr. C. E. Clark, 17961 Deering stated that because of topsoil removal this property lies low and there is water standing. Neighbors back yard which is located six or seven lots down floods from area across the street. Topsoil has been removed up until this past summer. Started removing year before. Mr. Harsha stated that if the natural grade was towards this branch of Bell Creek this additional pressure will not burden it. Mr. McCary stated that water may run off fast with storm drains but in general did not think it would cause enough difficulty to worry about in creek of this size. Mr. Ventura suggested Mr. McCary make survey before next meeting. Mr. Clark stated that before they took topsoil off road was bad and that since removal the road is better. Asked about the paving of Deering. Mr. Jacobson stated 75% have signed papers to pave Deering. Mr. Clark stated he has not been told about this. Stated there were six homes along there now. There was a question about Lathers, rur}ning through. Mr. Ventura askedfor area plan which has failed to reach commission. Mr. Ray W. Tent, 18051 Deering stated he was under same opinion as Mr. Clark as to paving of Deering. Opposed to this paving. Has been told Rose and Sons was going to pave half and rest remain as is. Mr. Ventura suggested subdivision plat be tabled until commission has infor- mation as asked for. Mr. Jacobson stated he did not believe understanding with School Board should be had before plat is approved. Mr. Ashmore statdd the City Council has sent to this commission a resolution leir6 to the effect that no plat would be approved until there is provision for ,=" school site. Upon a motion duly made by Mrs. Nielsen, seconded by Mr. Harsha and unanimously carried, it was RESOLVED that, proposed Livonia Meadows Subdivision located on the Northwest corner of Six Mile and Inkster goads in the Southeast 1/4 of Section 12 be tabled until the petitioner submits a new revised plat incorporating the recommendations given at this hear— ing and FURTHER that they have agteement with School Board regarding school site.

Mr. Decker stated he had no objection to this recommendation. Mr. Ashmore asked whether Mr. McCary's position would be the same to the balance of this area. There was a discussion about vacating the entire street both in Subdivision No. 1 and Subdivision No. 2.

Mr. Salinas asked whether C-2 uses would apply to M-1. Mr. Ashmore stated he did not think so. fir. Ventura stated that the sign at Middlebelt Road and Plymouth Road should be torn down but that a person who builds homes should have the right to advertise the product. Mr. Stone stated he was agreeable to a time limit and that a six months time limit would be satisfactory as they want the sign to advertise just the homes in Devonshire Park Subdivision.
