Mr. Arrigoni was present and provided the Commissioners with his interpre- tation of the code. He presented photographs of his front yard, describing the types of material he used. He felt the screening does not detract from the appearance of his home or from the neighborhood. Commissioner Shepherd asked for a staff report evaluating the matter. Commissioner Doherty suggested that it may be in order to check out other jurisdictions and how they deal with this situation. He was convinced that landscape architecture can be done tastefully and be an asset to the neigh- borhood. He thought the staff could check with other persons who are in- volved in environmental design. He suggested that perhaps Al Dutchover of the City's Park and Landscape Division, could provide input. Chairman Butler ascertained from Mr. Arrigoni that his front yard is more than 23 feet. He asked the staff to give this matter some thought and pre- sent the Commission with a report of their findings. Review of request from Frank DiFilippo for joint use of o_ff-street parking facilities at the Gay 90's Pizza Parlor. Secretary Harris indicated that the owner of the Gay 90's Pizza Parlor is requesting permission to build an outdoor patio to be used for daytime service only. His restaurant is only open at night now and if both the outdoor patio and theinterior area is used concurrently, he would be short of parking spaces. The ordinance code has no provision for the joint use of parking by uses which do not take place at the same time. He is recom- mending that the code be looked at for possible amendment. Mr. DiFilippo was present and told the Commissioners how he intended to operate the business so as to not overlap in the parking use. He touched upon the possibility of "renting" a portion of the spaces on the Citizens Savings & Loan land across the street. Secretary Harris indicated that the study staff makes on this matter will also cover off-site parking Find Conformity with the General Plan for Conveyance of a Remnant of Property - Right-of-Way for Stoneridge Drive.
