The Chairman opened the public hearing on the use permit.
William Goodman was present at the meeting. There being no one
to speak for or against the proposed project, the public hearing

taken into consideration were the balconies provided, the means
of entry to the second -floor units, the method of control on the
security gate, and the narrow side yards indicated on the plan.
Alternate orientation of the buildings or offsets were discussed
in order to provide some more meaningful open space areas than
exist on the present plan, and the applicant indicated that he
had a plan prepared which he felt would provide more individual,
private open space for future tenants. However, this plan would

applicability to apartment complexes of this size, it was the
consensus of the Board that the applicant should submit a condi-

BY LIPPS TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP
REGULAR MEETING OF FEBRUARY 23, 1977,
USE PERMIT NO. 76-64 (Revised Plan)
Applicant: Del Taco (W & D Developers)
Bill Galloway was present to represent the Del Taco restaurant
and presented a revised site plan for his portion of the project
showing reduced parking and deletion of the access off the service
road.
The Board reviewed the plan and found it to be in conflict with
the originally approved layout for the shopping center. It was
the consensus of the Board that the responsibility for revising
the layout rested with W & D, and that the Board would analyze
the proposed changes and determine whether or not they were exten-
sive enough to require a plot plan amendment to be processed. The
project will be rescheduled for the meeting of February 23, and
both Del Taco and W & D notified to be present.
THERE BEING NO FURTHER BUSINESS, THE MEETING WAS ADJOURNED.
