8 a� THE HOUR OF 9:00 O'CLOCK A.M. HAVING PASSED, THE CHAIRMAN ANNOUNCED THAT THE PUBLIC HEARING IN REGARD TO ADOPTION OF THE RECREATIONAL VEHICAL ORDINANCE WOULD BE CONTINUED. ATTORNEY COLLINS STATED THAT HE HEARTILY CONCURS WITH THE REDRAFT PROVIDED BY THE PLANNING .DEPARTMENT. PLANNING DIRECTOR•REDICK REVIEWED THE CHANGES MADE IN LINE WITH THE COMMENTS AT THE LAST MEETING. HE FELT ONE OF THE (QUESTIONS WAS HOW DOES A PICK—UP TRUCK OR VAN QUALIFY, AND THEY HANDLED THAT BY FINDING THE SIZE OF ONES THAT ARE NORMALLY USED FOR DAY TO DAY TRANSPORTATION AND ELIMINATING THEM. 'HE NOTED THAT THE REDRAFT PROVIDES FOR STORING A BOAT AS WELL AS A RECREATIONAL VEHICLE ON A PIECE OF PROPERTY. COMMISSIONER SIEBERT STATED THAT•WHEN YOU ELIMINATE THE VAN TYPE VEHICLE FROM THE DEFINITION, HE NO LONGER FELT IT IS NECESSARY TO INCLUDE THE PROVISION ABOUT DAILY USAGE AND TRANSPORATION. ATTORNEY COLLINS PREFERRED THAT THE DEFINITION STAY THAT WAY TO PROVIDE A STANDARD IF AN EXCEPTION SHOULD OCCUR. CHAIRMAN lllODTKE ASKED HOW THIS AFFECTS SOMEONE WITH A RECREATIONAL VEHICLE STORED INSIDE A GARAGE — IF HE HAS ONE STORED INSIDE, IS HE ENTITLED TO STORE ONE OUTSIDE? PLANNING DIRECTOR REDICK STATED THAT THIS ORDINANCE SPEAKS OF STORING ON A LOT WHICH IMPLIES THAT IT SPEAKS ONLY TO EXTERIOR STORAGE, ALTHOUGH IT IS NOT EXPLICITLY SPELLED OUT. HE NOTED THAT THE ZONING ORDINANCE IS NOT CONCERNED WITH WHAT IS INSIDE A BUILDING. HE FELT THE POINT IS WHETHER SOMETHING IS STORED IN THE BACK .YARD AS OPPOSED TO THE FRONT YARD, AND DID NOT FEEL IF IT ISIN AN ENCLOSED GARAGE IT WOULD BE COUNTED. ATTORNEY COLLINS POINTED OUT THAT IF THE RECREATIONAL VEHICLE WERE IN A CARPORT IN THE FRONT OF THE HOUSE, BUT UNDER COVER, IT WOULD NOT BE IN THE FRONT YARD SETBACKS BECAUSE THE CARPORT WAS A PERMITTED STRUCTURE, AND PLANNING DIRECTOR REDICK AGREED, THE CHAIRMAN ASKED IF ANYONE PRESENT WISHED TO BE HEARD. THERE WERE NONE. OCT 41978 15 BOOK 36 PACE 335
