Jackson stated she thought they MINUTES WORKSHOP ~ET~G PLANNING & ZONING BOARD PAGE ~0 OCTOBER 8, 1974 should have a prohibition in there. Mrs. Huckle stated "Uses Prohibited" would then be 2, stating any residential use. Mr. Barrett added that the asterisk would remain as a sentence, Prohibitive Use will become #2, C becomes #3, and Area Dimension becomes Regulation. ~. Barrett stated that #1 becomes (a) and they should follow through with small letters. They deleted the word "except" under Buildling Height. Off-street Parking will be 4. ~. Rogers referred to the top of the page where minimum lot dimensio~ and area was shown. He pointed out that the wording of this was not .uniform when being mentioned in var- ious sections. He thought they should follow what they stated previously of lot dimensions and area (minimum) and then building setbacks. ~s. Huckle noted that (1) and (2) under Maximum Building Height had to do with setbacks and not maxi- mum building height. After discussion, it was agreed to put one asterisk by none and two asterisks by last 25! and re- verse the two references to the paragraphs. For clarifica- tion, they decided to state: when abutting a residential dis- trict on either side or at ~ear, 30' setbacks shall be re- quired. Mrs. Huckle referred to adding a protective buffer in this zoning and suggested using the same wording as used previ- ously on Page 34. It was agreed to make a #5, Protective Bnffer. Mms. Jackson noted that no prohibitive uses were listed and ~. Barrett explained that it was not necessary. Mr. Kelly questioned having building and site regulations in the CBD area and Mr. Barrett advised him they were not needed. Mrs. Jackson stated she felt they should limit the height and ~M. Barrett stated he felt they had full control with stating that a proposal must be submitted to the Planning & Zoning Board for recommendation to City Council. The members dis- cussed whether this should be included and it was decided to add the statement that building height is not to exceed 45' or 4 stories following Uses Prohibited. ~. Rogers referred to the first paragraph at the end sug- gesting that a period be put after "requirements~ and strik- ing out the rest: "as opposed to the rest of the City".

He believed they referred to discussing three things on tonight's agenda: first the motels, second the used car and truck sales and the third he forgot. Chairman Kostner advised him that the question was answered by the fact that the City Council had already acted on it and therefore, it was not in this Board's provision to follow it any further. Mr. Jones questioned whether the meetings that were scheduled for next Thursday and Monday were to be workshop meetings and Chairman Kostner informed him the Board had decided to meet on Thursday and Monday and they would be workshop meetings for general dis- cussion. Mr. Jones then continued that he did not know whether this was the correct time or place or where he would go to find out about the scheduling of his application for an occupational license for a rehearing. The City Manager's secretary informed him that he was too late for the October 1 meeting and then it was rather indefinite as to whether it could be heard at the October 15 meeting.
