Collins indicated that assigning permanent house numbers <br />will eliminate the problem of having to reassign house numbers <br />whenever the rural postal routes need to be redistributed. <br />Motion was made by Commissioner Hartwell, seconded by <br />Commissioner Halkiotis to defer action on Route 3 and 7 in <br />Hillsborough and to approve the assigning of building and house <br />numbers for rural route 1 in Cedar Grove. <br />VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br />. ZONING ORDINANCE TEXT AMENDMENTS <br />a. Article 22 Definitions (Arts & Crafts Studios) <br />b. Article 4.3 Table of Permitted Uses (Arts & Crafts Studios) <br />This presentation was made by Mary Scearbo. In summary this <br />item was presented to receive citizen comment on a proposed amendment <br />to include arts and crafts studios as a permitted use in commercial <br />zoning districts. An arts and crafts studio may qualify as a home <br />occupation, but there is no category in the Table of Permitted Uses <br />which addresses a studio as a freestanding use. The proposed <br />amendment defines arts and crafts studios as the working area for <br />artists or craftsmen and gives examples of typical studio uses. <br />Studios would be permitted by right in the commercial zoning <br />
