29 <br /> question of four or five bedrooms having the same <br /> setbacks is probably not practical because four <br /> is the maximum number for the Health Department <br /> for lots of record. Once you go from four to <br /> five bedrooms on a lot of record prior to 1982, <br /> the requirement for repair area would apply. <br /> Waddell noted that it seemed then that four would <br /> be the number of bedrooms for Staff approval, <br /> and, beyond that, application to the Board of <br /> Adjustment for a variance. <br /> Brown expressed her concern with all watersheds. <br /> She noted she was more concerned with the "whole <br /> vision" . She stated that she would like the <br /> recommendation to state that none of this applies <br /> except to Lake Orange and that the other <br /> watersheds remain under the regulations that the <br /> County passed January 1, 1994. Waddell asked if <br /> the owners wished to have setbacks changed, they <br /> would apply directly to the Board of Adjustment <br /> and Brown said yes. <br /> Reid expressed concern with that recommendation <br /> because there are a few lots left in University <br /> Lake there were platted several years ago.

She cautioned <br /> members again to be sure' that they did not make <br /> those lots unbuildable unless they were willing <br /> to make provisions to purchase them. <br /> Brown responded that could be addressed by <br /> stating that those old lots of record could be <br /> handled by the Planning Staff. Barrows noted <br /> that she felt that was what has been said. Brown <br /> responded that she did not feel that septic <br /> easements should not be allowed at all in <br /> University Lake and Cane Creek. Waddell stated <br /> that septic easements was not the issue being <br /> discussed at this time. Brown stated that it was <br /> all a part of it. <br /> Brown stated that the Cane Creek Reservoir Study <br /> is an on-going study and that what the <br />
