The first order of business was a request for a Special Use Permit by Don Youngen for his building on Route 47. Conunissioner Jack Daum removed himself from the board for this issue and presented the information that JDM Automotive Repair Shop is planning to move into Mr. Youngen's building. It was an auto body shop and now wants to use only as an auto mechanical repair shop, no body work. There is room for about six-eight cars inside. Mr. Fransen questioned the black- topping of the parking area outside, also possibility of landscaping a screen along south side. Mr. Mercer asked how the black topping ordinance needs to apply to this situation. It is blacktopped in front. Mayor said wherever cars are to be parked needs to be blacktopped. If they park inside and in front, it won't need to be blacktopped on the south side.
Mr. Franzen moved to recommend accepting the Special Use Permit for Don Youngen's building at 11109 South Vine
