Mr. Buechler asked Mr. Burgis how they will deal with deliveries because no loading dock is being proposed. He asked if the deliveries will be made through the front door; Mr. Burgis said yes. He said that these facilities do not have tractor trailers making deliveries that they use step vans. Mr. Russo stated that there was testimony at the last meeting that step vans are used for their deliveries. Mr. Buechler said that they testified to box trucks making their deliveries; not step vans. He said that box trucks could vary in size and some are very large. Chairwoman Gabry referred to Mr. Burgis’ report and said that it refers to the strip of land as 5” and not 10’. Mr. Regan stated, for the record, that the strip of land is 10’. Mr, Russo referred to #13 of the Omland Engineering review dated May 21, 2013 regarding the solid waste enclosure as an accessory structure. He asked Mr. Burgis to verify that it does not require any setback relief. Mr. Burgis stated that the solid waste structure has the 5’ required setback and it does not need a variance. Mr. Bullock asked Mr. Burgis if they could reduce the sq. footage of the large 345 sq. ft. sign. Mr. Burgis said that that it is important to note the relationship of the sign to the size of the wall itis on. He said that signs do not look appropriate on the wall if you drop down the size. Mr. Grygiel stated that Mr. Burgis raised a valid point. He said that the Township ordinance does not account for building size and he thinks that the size of the sign is appropriate here for visibility. Mr. Buechler asked how many deliveries they are anticipating a week; Mr, Burgis replied one and based his answer on his experience with other fitness centers. Mr. Buechler asked Mr, Burgis if the other health clubs he has experience with have swimming pools; he replied no. Mr. Buechler said that he feels that health clubs that have swimming pools require more maintenance and have more deliveries per week. There were no further questions from the Board of the Professionals. Chairwoman Gabry asked if any members of the public had any questions for Mr. Burgis; secing none.
