On Tuesday, June 12, 1973, the City Planning Commission of the City of Livonia
held its 259th Regular Meeting and a Public Hearing at the Livonia City Hall,
33001 Five. Mile Road, Livonia, Michigan.
Mr. Daniel R. Andrew, Chairman called the Public Hearing and Regular Meeting
to order at 8:05 p.m. with approximately 35 interested persons in the audience.
Members Present: Daniel R. Andrew Joseph J. Talbot Charles Pinto
Francis M. Hand Suzanne Taylor Joseph J. Falk
Herman H. Kluver Esther Friedrichs David F. Merrion
Mr. Joseph Talbot entered the meeting after the first item was voted on.
Messrs. John J. Nagy, Planning Director; Ralph H. Bakewell, Planner IV;
H. G. Shane, Planner IV; and Robert M. Feinberg, Assistant City Attorney;
and Ted Kovarik, Fire Marshall were also present.
Mr. Andrew informed the audience that if a petition on the evening's agenda
involved a question of rezoning or vacating then the Planning Commission would
only recommend to the City Council that certain action be taken whereupon the
Council would ultimately decide whether or not to approve or deny the petition.
Further if a petition involved a waiver of use approval that is denied, the
petitioner had ten days in which to appeal the decision to the Council.
Mr. Kluver, Secretary, announced the first item on the agenda, Petition 73-5-1-19
by Michael J. Talbot, Attorney for Barbara Saperstein requesting to
rezone property located on the north side of Joy Road between Newburgh
and Stonehouse in the Southeast 1/4 of Section 31, from R-1 to R-7.
Mr. Andrew: What are the comments of the Engineering Division?
Mr. Nagy: Additional right-of-Way is required to make Joy Road and Stonehouse
a full width street. There are no storm sewers presently avail-
able and will not beconstructed for approximately one year.
Consumer Power has no objection.
Mr. Andrew: WilLthere be any difficulty on the part of your client to meet
additional right-of-way needed?'
Mr. M. Talbot: Not at all
. Mr. Hand: Has any thought been given to deleting a portion of the property
bordering Stonehouse and making it single family dwelling?
Mr. M. Talbot: Yes, there has been some thought given to it. We are talking about
continuity, the units are being made up into courts. We would lose
something if we went into single family dwelling.
There was no one present wishing to be heard on this item and the Chairman closed the
public hearing.

AYES: Falk, Friedrichs, Merrion, Pinto, Taylor, Hand, Kluver, Andrew
NAYS: None
ABSENT: Talbot
The Chairman declared the motion carried and the foregoing resolution adopted.
*Mr. Joseph J. Talbot arrived at this time.
Mr. Kluver announced the next item on the agenda, Petition 73-5-2-10 by Ken
Morris, Inc. , requesting to be granted a waiver use approval to
construct and operate a Bonanza Restaurant on property located
on the north side of Plymouth Road between Merriman and Melrose
in the Southeast 1/4 of Section 27.
•
Mr. Nagy: A letter from the Fire Department states that the traffic
conditionton Plymouth Road is very critical concern as
pertains to movement of fire apparatus. The above mentioned
petition would add to this problem. A letter from the Traffic
Bureau states the problems would double.on Plymouth Road if
above mentioned petition were granted. A letter from Mrs.
Ralph Dunlevy states that she is against the granting of the
5326
t , .
petition. The Engineering Division reports there are
no storm sewers readily available to service this site.
Mr. Morris: Property is not presently being used as C,2. There are two
buildings on this site now. One building is being used for
office and other was used as a home, We would tear down
one house. We are here to request approval to construct
Bonanza Steak House. It is a sit-down operation. These
buildings are very attractive using earth tones for color
of brick. Hours are from ll°a.m. to 9 p.m. , seven days a
week,
Robert Parking spaces are in error. There are 68 instead of 74.
Mclllhenny, Seating in the restaurant is approximately 178 seats and
Architect: we understand your parking ratio is two to one. I have
been building for five years. Every city has a different
seating code. We find that the passenger count is 3.5 per person
per car. We serve no liquor. It is normally a family
type and not even too much traffic is seen in couples. We
find that 70 parking spaces are adequate. My point in coming
here is to tell you that we are not in the "fast food operation".
We are a family style restaurant. "Fast food operations"
would require more parking spaces than we do. My request
is therefore, that you don't lump everyone in a two to one
parking ratio. We would like to operate with 68 spaces for
IL178 seats.
Mr, Andrew: Site is deficient because of a lack of two egress and ingress
areas also.
Mr. Morris: We are definitely thinking of putting in a slow-down lane and
a driveway of 25 feet which is larger than normal.
Mr, Hand: Are you saying you cannot comply with two driveways as required
by Ordinance?
Mr. Morris: I am saying it is difficult, not impossible. There should be
15 more feet to do it right.
Mr. Mclllhenny: By using two driveways we would lose parking spaces and also
the space needed for landscaping in the front of the building.
Mr. Hand: Has a market survey been done?
Mr. Pritchard: There are many offices and businesses as well as neighborhood
trade. This makes for excellent business.
Mr. Hand: Do you take into account all the restaurants in that area?
Mr. Pritchard: Yes, when we submitted data to Dallas we stated all the
ierestaurants in the immediate five mile area.
Mr. Hand: How many lunches and dinners do you have to generate daily
in order to prosper?
Mr. Mclllhenny: $5,000 to $6,000 per week with a seven day operation. $1.98 is
the average meal or 3,000 people per week to generate $5,000 to
$6,000 per week.
5327
Mg, KJ.uyer; 1 Can count 33 eating placea in just 1x1/2. mile radius,
Mr. Falk: If you can't get Bonanza situated on this location, then what
4 will your plans be?
Mr. Morris: If we were not approved for this, we have been approached
• by a tire chain store which we do not need a waiver for.
Also a repair and rental shop for bikes. I would also like
to say that Plymouth Road just does not have a place that
serves steak. We know traffic is there and that is why
the restaurant wants to locate there. This restaurant will
not add more traffic to Plymouth Road.
Mr. Merrion; The City is trying to rejuvenate Plymouth.Road by buying
buildings and land to provide adequate offsite parking. What
I_would like to see is if you are going to put up a restaurant
then provide adequate parking and ingress and egress driveways.
You have a proposal here at this time that nowhere meets the
standards of what we are proposing to do in this stretch of
Plymouth Road. If you cannot meet these standards and we
approve this petition, then we are further deteriorating
Plymouth Road.
Mrs. Taylor; Do you have policy of distance between restaurants?
Mr.Mcllhenny: Three miles, it is a preference not policy.
f Bud Grace: I would like to submit a list of 46 eating establishments on
31.14
14Myrna on Plymouth Road. (list attached)
(Daly Restaurant)
There was no one else wishing to be heard on this petition and the Chairman ruled
only a tabling or denying motion would be acceptable as this petition is in violation
of the Zoning Ordinance. The Public Hearing on this item was closed.
On a motion duly made by Mr. Hand, seconded by Mr. Kluver and unanimously adopted
it was,
#6-147-73 RESOLVED that, pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held on
June 12, 1973 on Petition 73-5-2-10 by Ken Morris, Inc. , requesting
to be granted a waiver use approval to construct and operate a
Bonanza Restaurant on property located on the north side of Plymouth
Road between Merriman and Melrose in the Southeast 1/4 of Section 27,
the City Planning Commission does hereby recommend to the City Council
that Petition 73-5-2-10 be denied for the following reasons:
(1) The site plan indicates an insufficient number of off-street
parking spaces pursuant to Zoning Ordinance #543, as amended,
Section 18.38.
(2) The site plan does not comply with the Zoning Ordinance
requirement with respect to providing ingress and egress
from at least two driveways.
(3) A Traffic Survey by the Police and Fire Departments indicates
there will be additional traffic congestion problems in this
area as a result of the restaurant.
5328
IV3
(4) There appears to be an over abundance of restuarants in
the area, more than is needed to adequately service the
population.
FURTHER RESOLVED that, notice of the above public hearing was
sent to property nwners within 500 feet, petitioner and City
Departments as listed in the Proof of Service.
The Chairman declared the motion carried and the foregoing resolution adopted.
Mr. Kluver announced the next item on the agenda, Preliminary Plat approval
of Bedford Forest Subdivision proposed to be located on the
north side of Curtis Avenue between Brookfield and Mayfield
Avenues in the Northwest 1/4 of Section 10.
Mr. Merrion: Is there anything located on Lots ##21 and #22?
Mr. Capri: No.
Mr. Merrion: How about Lots #23 and ##24?
Mr. Capri: It's all vacant. There are two houses facing Clarita.
Mr. Pinto: How will Lot #773B1 in back of Lot #32 and #33 get in?
Mr. Capri: We are proposing a half road to give them access to their
property.
Mr. Andrew: What's the purpose of a 60 ft. easement?
•
Mr. Nagy: Sanitary sewers and utilities will be located in this easement.
Storm sewers will be on Mayfield.
•
Mr. Keller: It would appear to me that this would cause a lot of added
traffic to the area. I feel this road should be improved.
Loveland is only street that goes through to Six Mile
and Seven Mile between Farmington and Merriman.
Mr, Nagy: I think the road does need improvement and I think that the
City Engineer and subdivider should get together to determine
the type of improvement this road needs. I feel that is why
he sided the house to Clarita instead of facing this street
so that he would avoid the full burden of improving this road.
A letter from the Fire Department wished to clarify that Pickford is to be
dead-ended.
A letter from the Engineering Department indicated no problems.
Police Department correspondence indicates no problems.
teThere was no one else present wishing to be heard on this petition and the Chairman
declared the public hearing on this item closed.
On a motion duly made by Mr. Falk, seconded by Mr. Hand and unanimously adopted
it was,
• 5329

Regulations.

is compatible to and in harmony with the surrounding
residential neighborhood.
