The Table of Permitted Uses identifies this use as"Historic <br /> Sites Non-Residential Mixed Use." Article 8.8.24.2 of the Zoning Ordinance <br /> limits this type of permit to a six-year period. The Rices requested renewal of <br /> their permit in December 1996. <br /> The property is located in Cheeks Township, on the west side of Saddle Club <br /> Road. A log cabin is located on the property which is listed on the National <br /> Register of Historic Places as the Paisley-Rice Log House. The house is located <br /> on an 11.83 acre parcel. <br /> The facility provides food and lodging for up to four guests at any given time. <br /> Site conditions and operation of the bed and breakfast remain the same as when <br /> the Special Use Permit was approved in 1989. <br />
