Camp /Retreat Centers would be classified <br />as a Class B Special Use in the Agricultural Residential <br />(AR), Rural Residential (R -1) and Rural Buffer (RB) zones. <br />Appropriate definitions would be added to the definition <br />section of the ordinance. <br />IMPACTS /ISSUES: <br />The Zoning Ordinance does not presently address Camp /Retreat <br />Centers. If a new Camp /Retreat Center were proposed under <br />the existing ordinance, it would be classified as non - profit <br />recreation or a community center, both of which are <br />classified as Class B Special Use Permits. This amendment <br />would specifically set up a Camp /Retreat Center as a Class B <br />Special Use Permit and provide specific standards that would <br />apply. Existing Camps or Retreat Centers would have to <br />obtain a Class B Special*Use Permit to expand. <br />EXISTING ORDINANCE PROVISIONS: <br />Article 8.8.5 - Reserved <br />Article 22 - "Camp" - no present definition <br />"Retreat Center" - no present definition <br />PROPOSED AMENDMENTS <br />8.8.5 Camp /Retreat entgr (amass B, Special Use) <br />8.8.5.1 Ad Ton at o <br />
