5 The third request is for a Variance from the Minimum required 30-foot Building Setback along the North property line (i.e. Woodside Street and a Public Alley) to a minimum of 3 foot for an existing building. As shown, the Petitioners desire to use the existing building and leave the structure where it presently sits on the property. This building has been as close to the street as shown for the past decades and approval of a Variance for it to remain, should not adversely affect surrounding properties. The fourth requests is for a Variance from the Minimum required 30- foot Building Setback-along the East property line (i.e. Main Street) to a minimum of 0 foot for an existing building. This building has been at the property line for the past few decades and again approval of a Variance for the existing situation should not adversely affect adjacent properties. The last request is for a Variance from the requirement of providing a minimum of 35 parking spaces on-site for 10,000 square foot of proposed office space in the existing building to providing a minimum of 35 parking spaces off-site on Parcel "D" as shown. The Petitioners as stated before desire to keep the. existing building and would prefer to create a new parking area as shown on proposed Parcel "D" which would service both uses on Parcels "C" and "D". The Petitioners would state they are providing some parking spaces on Parcel "C" but the remaining spaces can be accommodated on Parcel "D" which is conveniently located to the existing building. The Petitioners do not believe approval of this request would be detrimental to any surrounding property. The development of Parcel "D" requires a Variance from the requirement of providing Type "A" Perimeter landscaping along the East, North, West and South property lines to no landscaping. As stated above approval of this Variance should not have a detrimental affect on surrounding properties and the location of the existing building along a portion of the West property line would make placement of landscaping difficult. The adjacent properties are either zoned Industrial or have been used as a railroad right-of-way. The second request is a Variance to be allowed to place a proposed Parking area in the required 100-foot wide Residential Bufferyard along the East property line to a minimum of 20 foot and screening said Parking with a shown Evergreen Buffer. The Petitioners would state that they believe the intent of this requirement was to maintain a sufficient bufferyard for an Industrial site that may have outside storage of materials. They don't believe a 100 ft. wide bufferyard would be required for a parking area. They would state that as shown they are providing a 20 ft. wide buffer area containing a double row of evergreen trees which should screen the parking area from any adjacent property. They would state that approval of this Variance should not .have an adverse impact on adjacent properties. The third request is for a Variance to be allowed to have an existing building and a proposed paved driveway and parking in the required 100- foot wide Bufferyard along Unzoned property (i.e. Railroad Right-of- way),along the West property line to a minimum of 1 foot with no
