[WAY 15 1995 <br />BOOK 6 938 <br />Director Keating emphasized that if there is a term that is <br />not defined, the commonly accepted definition will prevail. He <br />noted that the definition of structure was quite controversial; <br />they did not change it significantly but made modifications in <br />the General Provisions Section to allow parking in certain <br />setbacks and also made modifications to other uses in setback <br />areas which address the concerns presented. The Planning & <br />Zoning Commission considered this, as well as a new definition <br />for stables, and voted unanimously to recommend approval. <br />The Chairman asked if it is necessary to go through this <br />page by page, and Commissioner Scurlock stated that his only <br />question related to the definition of structure. He realized we <br />have been consistently trying to work around air conditioning <br />pads and driveways, which in some conditions encroach on <br />easements, and asked if this has been addressed. <br />Director Keating replied that this has been addressed in the <br />General Provisions which state that air-conditioning equipment, <br />sprinkler system controls, and similar mechanism equipment, may <br />project into any required yard provided it is mounted in a manner <br />contiguous to the existing structure. There is also a provision <br />allowing parking areas and driveways to encroach within required <br />sideyards 5' from the nearest side lot line and within 2' for <br />driveways accessing rear or side entry garages of a single family <br />home. He explained that they made exceptions for encroachment of <br />certain other types of structures, tool sheds, etc. The term <br />they had the most problem with was "building site," but he felt <br />an acceptable definition was finally arrived at. <br />Commissioner Bowman agreed that what they came up with was <br />reasonable. <br />Chairman Lyons asked if there were any questions of staff. <br />Commissioner Wodtke referred to Page 4 - COUNTRYCLUB.
