Mr. Brunns confirmed that the restroom facility has an 8" thick precast roof, and the structural considerations had been evaluated. Mr. Brockmann asked if the Fire Department had any objections to granting the variance. Scott Scheller, Naperville Fire Marshal, confirmed that the Fire Department reviewed the request and supports the variance. Mr. Smith asked if the windows on the proposed building would be a problem if the Van Buren right-of-way was sold for development in the future. Mr. Zibble confirmed that the city owns the parcel and that, as a key entrance to the Central Park, there were no plans to sell the property. Ms. Laff added that if the right-of-way were ever vacated, the property owner would likely be afforded the opportunity to purchase property to remain in compliance. Otherwise, the building would just be deemed existing/non-conforming. She added that the requested variance would not be considered a hinderance to developing the Van Buren right-of-way if it were ever to be developed.
