HOME OCCUPATION LICENSE Mr. Sargeant, 2221 Yule Tree, had written a letter to the Council concerning Home Occupation Licenses and the problem they create in residential areas. The Council had sent this letter to the Zoning Board for recommendations on possible changes to the Ordinance. Mr. & Mrs. Sargeant were both present at this meeting and spoke to the Board about business trucks parked in the residential areas. Mr. Pilch talked about the fact that many sub-contractors are using their homes for their business and this is unfair competition for contractors who maintain business offices and phones.

OLD BUSINESS Site Plan Requirements - Mrs. Blazi presented an updated form for application of site plan requirements and departmental forms for reviewing site plans. There was a rather lengthy discussion concerning the necessity for site plan review on all buildings in the multi-family business and industrial zones. Mr. Pilch told the Board that he felt when a building met all require- ments of the different departments it should not be necessary for the Board to review it also. Mrs. Blazi told the Board that the City needed standard forms and guide- lines for administrative purposes. Mr. Wallace said he felt we should have the same requirements for all site plan reviews and suggested that the review time be reduced from 15 working days to 10 working days. Mr. Phinney made a motion that the time be changed to 10 working days and Mr. Troian seconded the motion. Upon roll call the motion CARRIED 7-0. Subdivision Ordinance - There was a discussion about changing some restrictions on minor subdivisions. The Board felt that it was not necessary to specify the size of a minor subdivision as long as it met the stated criteria. Mr. Wallace made a motion that Article VI, Definition of Terms of the Subdivision Ordinance be amended to read: Minor Subdivision; Division or redivision of a parcel of land in single ownership whose entire area meets all of the following requirements: (1) All resultant lots or parcels front on an existing public street and; (2)Does not involve the construction of any new street or road or change in an existing street or road and; (3) Does not require the extension of municipal water or sewer or the creation of any public improvement. Mr. Phinney seconded the motion. Upon roll call the motion CARRIED 7-0. The Board will send this recommendation to the City Attorney prior to submitting it to the Council. The Board discussed the subject of zero lot lines in multi-family districts. Mr. Wallace said that he believed the Board should give this serious consideration. Condominium Type Buildings will be discussed at a later date since there was no specific information available. Zoning B~ard Meeting 12/2/80 -3- o Q NEW BUSINESS Mr. Mackie suggested we get a copy of the County Zoning Ordinance so that the Board can see what the County does about zero lot lines.

Mr. Troian seconded the motion. Upon roll call the motion CARRIED 7-0. Mr. Wallace made a motion to add Pilch commercial site plan to that agenda and Mr. Dyett seconded the motion.
