In staff's opinion the proposed use is consistent with the <br />purpose and intent of the CH district. The use also has <br />characteristics similar to the uses already allowed in CH areas. <br />For those reasons staff feels that the proposed use should be a <br />permitted use in the CH district. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners adopt the <br />proposed ordinance amendment. <br />Commissioner Bowman wondered what kind of solid waste problem <br />this would cause, but Chairman Wheeler pointed out that they would <br />have to comply with the requirements for solid waste no matter <br />where they operate in the county. <br />Commissioner Scurlock felt that the Utilities Dept. should <br />take a look at the situation, however, and work with them so than <br />if there is a waste problem, it would be handled properly. <br />Chairman Wheeler opened the Public Hearing, and asked if <br />anyone wished to be heard in this matter. <br />Michael O'Haire, attorney representing Quality Seals, <br />explained that the basic material used in manufacturing gaskets is <br />cork, not plastic. They do use some plastic and rubber, however. <br />The use is very similar to printing, which is already a permitted <br />use. He urged the Board to adopt the ordinance allowing this use <br />in the Heavy Commercial District. <br />There being no others who wished to be heard, Chairman <br />Wheeler closed the Public Hearing. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously adopted <br />Ordinance 89-5, amending the Heavy Commercial District <br />(CH) to allow the stamping of non-metallic seals and <br />gaskets. <br />17 <br />JAN 17 1989 <br />BOOK 75 PAGE. <br />
