Board of Zoning Adjustments May 17, 1978 Page 3 James Dickens and Michael Daley were present at the meeting. Secretary Spencer outlined the following issues of concern on the proposal: 1) question of whether or not the proposed use is a permissible and appropriate use in the Ml-A zoning district, and 2) question of whether or not the present configuration of the land was permitted by the Board only in conjunction with the specific site plan approved at the same time that the lot front- age reduction was allowed. The applicants addressed the Board to explain how their proposed use would operate, discussing height and type of storage on the site and screening of the outside storage from view. They noted that walls and existing or planned buildings will screen the site from all sides, with the only view into the property through its own access strip, which will have a slatted gate across it. They discussed uses on adjacent properties and expressed the view that their use would be compatible with surrounding uses. After further extensive discussion, it was the consensus of the Board to continue the application to allow staff research on the use itself and review of the prior actions on the property.
