Gould, Planning Officer SUBJECT: Amending Land Development Code 165-101D and Schedule B -Council Ordinance 10-039 Please be advised that the Planning Board at its regularly scheduled meeting on January 5, 2010 held a public hearing on the above Land Development Code Amendment. Planning Officer David Gould explained that the proposed amendment was intended to add Modular and Manufactured homes to the list of items that could be displayed as a Conditional Use in the Shopping and Personal Service District (S & PS). While S&PS is not the best district for outdoor display and storage the Code does allow a limited amount of outdoor display where no service is undertaken and the display area is limited to 50% of the primary building's floor area. While the Board had previously discussed this amendment and considered eliminating the floor area limitation, concerns were raised that the S&PS District was not intended for extensive outdoor display and storage. Board Member Theeman wondered if the limitation would be practical and if not, then there would be little use for the amendment. There were no proponents or opponents from the public in attendance. Planning Board Members reviewed the locations of the General Commercial and Service Districts and the Shopping and Personal Service Districts. The majority of the Board agreed that outdoor display in the S&PS District would be limited but should be allowed where the applicant desired to do it and could meet the applicable performance standards. The Board voted six in favor and one opposed to recommend the proposed amendment to add Manufactured and Modular homes to the list of items available for outdoor display as a Conditional Use in the Shopping and Personal Service District as contained in C.O. 10-039.
