PUBLIC HEAKING APPEAL 254 AND APPEAL 258 - (Continued) In further discussion by the Council, it was suggested that a deceleration lane, an addltional ten feet, should be provided in connection with both median breaks; it was felt that waiving the requirement for sidewalks in this development could set a precedent, and the Assistant City Attorney stated that in his opinion the Planning Commission had no jurisdiction to delete a condition required by statute. The Planning Commission may grant variances in connection with zoning regulations only. If the City Council wishes to consider a permit for this development deleting the sidewalks, it will be necessary to amend the Ordinance; however, the consensus was that landscaping the area in lieu of sidewalks would be more appropriate, more-attractive, and would help to screen the parking area from view of the street. It was moved by Councilman Markel, seconded by Councilman Villa, to grant the appeal of the applicant and to approve construction of a second median break with a double left-turn lane, on the following roll call vote: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Herrin, Evans, Markel, Villa, Yamamoto, Griset Patterson None Councilman Herrin's motion, seconded by Councilman Yamamoto, to grant the appeal of the applicant and approve construction of the gasoline service facility at the corner of Bristol Street and Sunfflower Avenue, to be designed similar to the facility at Manchester Avenue and Garden Grove Boulevard with deceleration lane and including two curb cuts on each street, carried on the following roll call vote: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Herrin, Markel, Villa, Yamamoto, Griset Evans, Patterson None Councilman Patterson's motion, seconded by Councilman Markel, to grant the appeal of the applicant; to waive the sidewalk requirement for this development; and require landscaping in lieu thereof, carried on the following roll call vote: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Herrin, Markel, Patterson, Villa, Griset Evans, Y amamoto None Councilman Patterson's motion, seconded by Councilman Markel, to grant the appeal of the applicant and require the first developer to pay the entire cost of installation of a traffic control signal light at the location of the existing inedian island on Bristol Street, and the developer on the opposite side of the street to pay a proportionate reimbursement cost carried on the following roll call vote: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Herrin, Evans, Markel, Patterson, Villa, Yamamoto, Griset None None CITY COUNCIL January 18, 1971
