Bertagnoli commented she will be in her house at 10 p.m. and will <br />have to deal with any issues that come up when the bowling center closes for the evening. <br />Bertagnoli stated the neighbors do have a concern regarding the lights and with the kitchen, and <br />that if there will be a number of items being cooked in the kitchen, they do have a concern with <br />the odors that would be emanated. <br /> <br />Bertagnoli stated the applicant has indicated the trash will be located upstairs and requested that <br />the stairs be improved for safety reasons. Bertagnoli commented in her view the proposed <br />signage is okay, but that they would like the Council to make sure the fence is extended. <br />Bertagnoli requested that there be no smoking tables or smokers in the parking lot after the <br />bowling center is closed. Bertagnoli commented the applicant has been very nice to work with <br />but that she expects the Council to be looking out for the residents’ interests. <br /> <br />Dick Edwards, 2480 Carman Street, stated he has resided in his house since 1955, and that he has <br />experienced first-hand some of the problems with the first bowling alley. The main issue was the <br />noise generated as well as the lighting. Edwards commented people tend to exit in groups and <br />make noise as they exit and that he would like that minimized as much as possible. <br /> <br />Tom Richie, 2507 Kelly Avenue, stated he does not have a problem with the lighting but that <br />noise and lighting are a concern. Richie commented he would like to see the building improved <br />since it is rundown, and asked whether the applicant is familiar with ADA and the requirements <br />of bathroom facilities and access. Richie noted updating the structure would be costly. <br /> <br />Rahn moved, McMillan seconded, to table Application #08-3381, Barry Tanner, 3435 <br />Shoreline Drive. <br /> <br />Murphy requested Rahn specifically state what he would like the applicant do. <br /> <br /> <br />Item #02 - CC Agenda - 11/24/08 <br />Approval of Council Minutes 11/10/08 [Page 7 of 13]
