unique in that it requires employees to be family members. <br />Therefore, when you say that the project is not sized to comply <br />with the ordinance, you just are twisting the whole ordinance <br />around. He cannot employ anybody who is not a family member. <br />The Manual may say that a warehouse of the size he proposes <br />requires 11 employees, but that is not what the ordinance <br />permits. You cannot deny this site plan on the basis of that <br />fact that Mr. Kirrie is expanding his operation and must have <br />more employees. That is not so. It doesn't necessarily follow, <br />and he is not permitted to do it by the ordinance. <br />Attorney O'Haire next addressed the matter of traffic <br />generation. Traditionally, traffic generation has been figured <br />in terms of permitted density under the Zoning Code. The ROSE -4 <br />District permits 4 units per acre, not 2 units per acre, as the <br />Health Department requires for septic reasons. He pointed out <br />that it is conceivable that Mr. Kirrie could put a package plant <br />in up there. Attorney O'Haire concluded his arguments by urging <br />the Board to do for Mr. Kirrie what they do for everybody else. <br />advised that James Terpening, a state licensed traffic <br />engineer from the firm of Culpepper & Terpening, will explain how <br />a traffic engineer figures traffic generation as the ordinance <br />requires, by comparing residential to the proposed use. <br />Mr. Terpening advised that having reviewed staff's <br />calculations and methodologies using ITE, but when comparing <br />trips generations that would be generated •by residential use to <br />that of the ROSE -4 district, there are 2 things that they feel <br />are important for the Board to consider: <br />1) The definition and the terminology of the residential traffic <br />generations rates, and that being based on the allowable density <br />of the project area. He felt that trip rates of 7.24 trips in <br />per residentialunit is a realistic number. Using that figure, <br />and not knowing when a residential development would occur, <br />providing that other infrastructures are provided, would yield <br />MAY 17 1S66 <br />34 <br />noK <br />7-2 11 <br />
