<br />be approved on first
<br />Planning Comisssion,
<br />
<br />(1) The storage shed seems ill-kept, has no relationship to the parking lot and
<br /> should be removed;
<br />
<br />(2)
<br />
<br />In a residential area zoned, and in a renewal conservation residential area,
<br />it seems ill-advised to authorize black-top pavement right up to a property
<br />line; it ought to be drawn back for a distance of at least two fact; and

<br />rather the staff recommends that in addition to the aluminum latticing, a
<br />hardy evergreen vine be planted ~n the area proposed for seeding located be-
<br />tween the fence and the sidewalk, and that this planting bed be continued
<br />so as to screen the entire length of the chain link fence including the north
