Staff outlined the proposal and stated that just yesterday a revised
plan reflecting the entire parking layout was submitted to the Board
which did not allow time for a plan check.
The Board reviewed the plan submitted noting that the two (2) parking
spaces on the northwest corner of Beach Boulevard would have to be
eliminated and replaced with landscaping. Mr. Dennis Trausch, represent-
ing Sport Chalet, introduced himself to the Board and stated that the
reason they were late getting their plans in was that the original
plan they provided did not indicate the fire protection system which
was approved for the Sport Chalet nor did it include access routes
and a circulation plan to Stark Street. These items are now shown
on the revised plan submitted.
Landscaping was discussed. The applicant was informed that the site
must be upgraded to meet code requirements of 60 landscaping for the
entire site in lieu of 3% which was approved on the original entitlement.
The applicant concurred with a one -week continuance in order to allow
adequate time to revise his plan reflecting a legend showing the
ratio of parking and landscaping prior to the Board taking action.

Mr. Michael Lasley, A.I.A. for the project, was present to speak
in favor of his application.
Staff stated that for a 257 seat theatre, eighty-five (85) parking
spaces were required but that only seventy-one (71) parking spaces
were being requested for joint use.
Mr. Lasley addressed the Board and stated that his clients, Mr. & Mrs.
Rutmayer, were proposing a twin cinema theatre in the Garfield Plaza
Shopping Center, in Building No. 400 - Suites C and D. One side of
the theatre will seat 145 people and the other side will seat 115-people.
Board discussion ensued covering the reduction of the total number of
required off-street parking spaces to be replaced by joint use. The
Board Members felt the use of a theatre at night would not pose a
parking problem as the office/professional uses in the building having
100+ parking spaces operates solely during the weekdays but expressed
concern with the weekday morning/afternoon walk-in "childrens" theatre.
Mr. Lasley stated that Mr. Jedinak, owner of the building, also owns
other buildings in the center of which he would not want to jeopardize
their operations by impacting parking. He stated he felt as this
theatre is going to be geared towards children, that parents would
only drop-off their children and would not attend the matinee alleviat
a use for parking.
Mr. Lasley agreed with the Board that as the principles were expending
a sizable amount of money and were mainly interested in the weekday
walk-in matinee portion of the theatre, that their concurrence in
writing should be received by the Board, prior to issuance of building
permits, acknowledging their understanding of the Board's concern
with -parking during weekdays and that the six month review could
reveal that the parking requirements were not being met and that the
Board may suspend the weekday walk-in matinee at the theatre.
ON MOTION BY SPENCER AND SECOND BY SMITH, ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW NO.
82-23 WAS APPROVED WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL APPLICABLE,
BY THE FOLLOWING VOTE:
CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL:
The conceptual plot plan and elevations received May 17, 1982, shall
be the approved layout for the following reasons:
1. Joint use of parking criteria is satisfied for week
night and weekends in that the additional theatre requirement
of 72 parking spaces could be utilized during the normal
closed hours within the office/professional buildings (which
have a designed requirement of 100+ parking spaces) located
within same complex.
