1 60 • - <br />i_5 <br />area planning group would certainly involve the <br />Township Advisory Council. <br />Brown expressed concern with the apparent rush to <br />deal with the permitted use table. She-continued <br />that she felt the permitted uses should be <br />addressed in the small area plan as part of the <br />community input. Willis responded that these are <br />purposely set up as two separate items. She <br />continued that the permitted uses in AS are more <br />widely applicable throughout the County. Thus, it <br />is a much larger issue. <br />In terms of dealing with a small area plan, there <br />are more things that are specific to a particular <br />area. <br />Brown asked what issue about the AS district that <br />all of the groups are to address. Willis <br />responded that was from the comments at the <br />public hearing; those items that address <br />agriculture, horticulture, silvaculture types of <br />uses. Willis continued that the directive from <br />the Commissioners at the.public hearing was for <br />the Planning Board to review the permitted uses. <br />Brown emphasized that she felt defining storage <br />in more detail would address the issue. <br />Price stated that she felt the Board was going to <br />be constantly confronted with definitions. The <br />issue of the small area planning group should <br />move ahead and not wait on other issues. The <br />group could very specifically define its <br />recommendations. <br />Hoecke stated that he felt there were two <br />separate issues because the definition of AS is a <br />more general one. The small area planning group <br />could define more clearly what is compatible with <br />the area and what is not. <br />Walters expressed agreement with Willis that the <br />permitted uses for an AS district are county- <br />wide, not just specific to the White Cross Area. <br />Brown again questioned whether the permitted use <br />table should be addressed at this time and how it <br />would affect the small area planning process. <br />Price expressed concern that the small area <br />planning group should move ahead since the <br />Planning Board already has the.charge from the <br />Commissioners to study the permitted use table <br />for AS district. <br />
