4 <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />BOOK F'"r`. <br />Based on the above analysis, including the Planning and Zoning <br />Commission's recommendation, staff recommends approval of the <br />attached zoning ordinance amendment. <br />The Chairman asked if anyone present wished to be heard. <br />There were none. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Lyons, SECONDED by Com- <br />missioner Bird, the Board unanimously (4-0) closed <br />the public hearing. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioher Bird, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Bowman, to adopt Ordinance 86-65 re- <br />ducing the minimum floor area and side yard setback <br />requirement for certain non -conforming lots in RS -3. <br />Commissioner Bowman inquired whether this will result in <br />having more houses built on 50' lots, and Planner Shearer noted <br />that we really don't have anything to prevent them building on <br />50' lots. <br />Chairman Scurlock commented on the fact that both the <br />Commission and the public are having some difficulty with the <br />various zoning designations, RS -3 and RS -6, for example. He <br />believed it actually is impossible to attain 6 units most of the <br />time and it is hard to explain that you really can't get that <br />many. He felt possibly we should create some new categories and <br />clarify these designations somehow so that they reflect what they <br />really do. <br />Director Keating noted that staff has struggled with this, <br />and it seems that RS -6 is the biggest problem. <br />THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. <br />It was voted on and carried unanimously (4-0), <br />Commissioner Wodtke being absent. <br />60 <br />
