Northen <br /> questioned the accuracy of displayed access map, but responded the developer of <br /> the large lot subdivision. Fe added the fire access spur would split a lot an(i <br /> that the developer - Just Us :Iortage Company, had retained ownership of the <br /> lots. The Planning Staff indicated the airport site extended beyond that shown <br /> on the display. <br /> Planning Board 'ember I.izer asked the attorney if he was prepared to <br /> provide information on the square footage of the uses. Attorney Northen <br /> responded at issue was what the accessory Uses included in the development. <br /> Kizer questioned the impact of accessory uses and indicated the Planning Board <br /> did not have copies of the hangar accessory -uses diagram to speak, to. He asked <br /> the size of the proposed hangars. Susan. Smith of the Planning Staff indicated <br /> the approximate size of the har_gar is 16,000 square feet. I:izer asked how vany <br /> hangars would be located on the site. Northen responded three (3) hangars. <br /> Kizer inquired if the second floor would contain similar uses. Northen answered <br /> possibly, but that the issue was the type of uses, not their location. I,iser <br /> asked if a branch banking facility was included. Northen responded if the <br /> Board of Commissioners considered it an accessory use. He felt the accessory <br /> use issue was critical as there is a big difference between a use incidental to <br /> an airport and a large use not usually associated with a small airport. <br /> There were no audience con-aaents. <br /> Commissioner vThitted asked if the Board wished to adjourn the public <br /> hearing until August 1, 1583, to receive the Planning Board recommendation. <br /> Commissioner I•iarshall moved, seconded by Commissioner Lloyd to adjourn <br /> the public hearing.
