I.
Discuss
conditional
use permit application from Westlake Indoor Sports,
Liberty Development Company, to permit construction and operation of a new
indoor sports facility primarily focusing on indoor volleyball and basketball
on lot 2-Rl Viking Parkway, parcel 211-02-015.
Planning Director Bedell reviewed the proposal, a permitted conditional use in exclusive
industrial zoning, for an approximately 51,620 sf building on 7.2 acres.
It would have 8
indoor courts and be open 7 days a week with staffing fluctuating based on events. Retail
sales of merchandise and food would mainly be during tournaments and camps. There is
ample area for parking, and the applicants are aware of restrictive covenants for Viking
Parkway. Councilmembers asked questions about traffic, adaptive reuse of the building,
HVAC units and trees to be incorporated in the development plan.
Councilmember Getsay moved, seconded by Councilmembcr Del Regno, to recommend
to Council that legislation be drafted relative to this request. Motion carried, 3 yeas, 0
nays.
II.
Discuss conditional use permit application from Angela Tempest, Joy Beauty-
Salon, for a salon to include medical micropigmentation (medical tattooing) as
an accessory use at 25125 Detroit Road, Suite 125, parcel 213-24-311.
Planning Director Bedell explained that the zoning code was recently amended to allow a
salon
as
a conditional use
in
the
Office Laboratoiy zoning
district and
also
allow
niicropigmentation, but not artistic tattooing, in an existing salon therein. He referred to
the standards, safeguards and conditions that Planning Commission will consider should
this request move forward, and he doesn’t foresee any issues with it. Councilmembers had
no questions.

Councilmember Del Regno moved, seconded by Councilmember Getsay, to recommend
to Council that legislation be drafted relative to this request. Motion carried, 3 yeas, 0
nays.

III.
Discuss zoning code amendment application from John and Lisa Anghilante
to change the zoning of 1097 Bradley Road, parcel 211-15-010, from Office
Building to Exclusive Industrial to establish a contractor’s shop and office in
accordance with §1218.03(h)(4).
Planning Director Bedell gave a brief history of the property and issues with its current
spot zoning and past proposed uses. The rezoning would allow the applicant to consolidate
their existing multi-location operations
into one purpose-built
facility and improve
operational efficiency through a centralized design, showroom and office environment.
There would be no retail, manufacturing or mass production. The proposed phase 1 is for
a 5,000 sf showroom/office area and phase 2, an 8,000 sf warehouse with units for lease.
Mr. Bedell reviewed the types of uses in both the current and proposed zoning. The
applicants further explained their conceptual plans and business model, having outgrown
their current location. Councilmembers were in favor of this proposal and asked questions
about buffering, tree preservation and semi-trailer traffic.
Coxmcil President Greenspan left at 7:32 p.m.
Councilmember Del Regno moved, seconded by Councilmember Getsay, to recommend
to Council that legislation be drafted relative to this request. Motion carried, 3 yeas, 0
nays.
IV.
Discuss zoning code amendment application from Hope Pointe Place, LLC
(Edward Pavicic), to change the zoning of 30395 Center Ridge Road, parcels
217-22-003 and 217-22-004, from R-lF-80 and RMF-40 to R-IF Cluster to
develop a 6 lot cluster development.
Planning Director Bedell gave an overview ofthe property (currently Green’s Garage) and
what the proposed zoning would permit (maximum 6 cluster lots) which would not need
to go to the ballot. The conceptual plan meets code except for the basin in the fi*ont setback.
The applicant is requesting it be a gated community with a private road and a tum-
around/escape
lane,
and
he
intends
to
maintain
the
existing
trees/buffering.
Councilmembers were generally supportive of the proposal except for the gate.
Councilmember Getsay moved, seconded by Councilmember Del Regno, to recommend
to Council that legislation be drafted relative to this request. Motion carried, 3 yeas, 0
nays.
V.
Discuss conditional use permit application from Westbrook Nursing LLC, to
convert the existing structure at 27601 Westchester Parkway, parcels 212-04-
002 and -048, from a vacant former skilled nursing facility to a modern
assisted living facility containing 100 suites.

Planning Director Bedell explained the regulations for this conditional use under 1211.34
that, since the previous owner lost their license in November 2023, the current owners have
until November 2026 to reopen. The proposal involves changing the use from skilled
nursing to assisted living through the adaptive re-use of two existing, connected, 2-story
buildings on approximately 4.2 acres abutting Huntington Woods. It would combine two
existing rooms each
into
100
assisted living units with
a kitchenette
and
bath. A
development plan may not be needed
as
this would
largely be interior remodeling.
Councilmembers asked questions about ownership, operatorship, parking, floor plans,
exterior upgrades and landscaping. It was suggested that the two parcels be consolidated.
Councilmember Del Regno moved, seconded by Councilmember Getsay, to recommend
to Council that legislation be drafted relative to this request. Motion carried, 3 yeas, 0
nays.
Meeting adjourned at 8:25 p.m.
Respeptfully submitted,
