P.01/03 8/25/97 PUe5LA C R EAeAjq H wUM5 . , Commission Brown asked for clarification regarding the citizens who are opposed to this 6 designation. Mr. Belk mentioned that the T.L. Oliver heirs, property owners in the Cedar Grove district, have expressed opposition to being listed on the National Registry. They did not give a specific reason for this opposition other than a desire to have things remain as they are. The State would take this into consideration when the National Registry Advisory Committee meets. if a majority of property owners were in opposition the property would not be listed on the National Register. However, the National Registry Advisory Committee will issue a determination of eligibility. in that case, the property would be eligible to be listed. A motion was made by Commissioner Brown, seconded by Commissioner Halkiotis, to refer the Cedar Grove Rural Crossroads Historic District National Register nomination to the Historic Preservation Commission for a recommendation to be returned to the Board of County Commissioners no sooner than September 16, 1997. VOTE: UNANIMOUS Chair Karen Barrows convened this portion of the Public Hearing and asked Emily Cameron to present 6terns#3 a)1 and 3 b)2&3. 3. ZONING ORDINANCE TEXT AMENDMENTS (a) Golf Courses 1) Article 8.8.7 Special Uses (Goff Courses) Planner Emily Cameron presented this item to receive citizen comment on proposed amendments to the Zoning Ordinance to 1) provide consistency in the ordinance regarding expansion and modification of existing golf courses and 2)to establish appropriate criteria for evaluating changes to Special Use Permits issued for new golf courses. On May 21. 1997, the Board of Commissioners added standards and approval procedures for golf courses to the Zoning Ordinance. During preparation and review of the new regulations, the Golf Course Amendment Review Task Force(GoWART) and the Count Attorney recommended two revisions to provide consistency with the new golf course standards. The first revision pertains to changes to existing golf courses and will eliminate conflicting ordinance provisions. Existing golf courses are those which were in operation prior to May 21, 1997,when golf courses were permitted uses in most zoning districts. A second proposed change pertains to new golf courses, those approved with a Special Use Permit under the new regulations. There are no new golf courses at this time. Article 8.7.1 contains standards for revisions to all types of Special Use Permits. This section is used to identify which revisions require a public hearing and which may be approved by the Planning Department. The proposed amendment adds a similar set of standards to the golf course regulations in Article 8.8.7.1 to specify which changes to a golf course Special Use Permit require a public hearing and review by the Board of Commissioners. QOMIi1ENTS AND/OR QUESTIONS FROM THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS: Commissioner Crowther asked if the GolfCART was recommending these changes? Ms. Cameron Indicated that both the GoWART and the County Attorney were recommending these changes: MMMENTS ANOMB QUESTIONS FROM THE PUNIIINGBOARM None
