fib Echo Road—Minor Modification (continued) Jack Phelan noted the change would be about 300 square feet difference. Jack said modification is fine as long as it meets Fire Department radius access requirement. Mike Mendoza commented this would be controlled construction. Also, he said updated paperwork to show all changes would have to be submitted. Glen Harrington questioned the use of the building. Mr. Seminara responded it would be wholesale trade storage. Glen said right now plan shows 4 bathrooms centrally located ----2 of them handicap bathrooms. Glen asked if renting to 1 or separate vendors. Mr. Seminara said he would like to rent to 1, but they have ability to do a 60-40 split. Glen said the original condition to have bathrooms in each rental unit is to be maintained. Mr. Seminara said he is looking for 2 tenants and that requires 4 bathrooms. Mike Mendoza stated a Plumbing Code issue could arise if you start divvying up the unit. Also, Mike noted that certificate of occupancy for each unit is required if divvied up. MOTION: Tom Fudala motioned to recommend approval with no conditions. Rodney Collins seconded the motion. Discussion: Glen Harrington proposed amending the motion to approve with condition to maintain with the original approvals for the building so we don't omit the original conditions that were approved for the building. Jack Phelan noted Floor Plan submitted is a mirror image that was flip-flopped so Floor Plan is incorrect for this building. AMENDED MOTION: Tom Fudala motioned to recommend approval as long as the mirrored Floor Plan is flipped to right direction; original approval conditions are retained; and new Floor Plan is submitted. Rodney Collins seconded this amended motion; and it was unanimously passed by Plan Review and by Design Review. 50 Market Street Building Mixed use building with commercial space on the Ground floor and two floors of apartments.
