DRAFT <br /> 54 <br /> 1 <br />Karen Barrows: Ok. 2 <br /> 3 <br />Barry Katz: Events. 4 <br /> 5 <br />James Bryan: Events. 6 <br /> 7 <br />Barry Katz: Events. Not simply weddings. 8 <br /> 9 <br />Matt Hughes: How are you going to word that though? I would say, you know, the idea to have 10 <br />school children on the grounds would be incidental. I don’t know if there’s a charge for that but that 11 <br />would be conceivably part of an agricultural use. 12 <br /> 13 <br />Barry Katz: Is that pertinent? 14 <br /> 15 <br />Matt Hughes: Yeah I think so, if you say events. I mean, someone could say… 16 <br /> 17 <br />Barry Katz: Oh right, the building… 18 <br /> 19 <br />Matt Hughes: That’s an event. 20 <br /> 21 <br />Barry Katz: Interesting, sure. 22 <br /> 23 <br />Matt Hughes: I think. That’s just my way of saying however it’s phrased needs to be, I think, you 24 <br />know is an educational workshop an event? Is that incidental to the farm? Is a school trip incidental 25 <br />to the farm versus a wedding versus a retreat versus a farm dinner? 26 <br /> 27 <br />Barry Katz: See you can elaborate on non-wedding uses that are not educational. That might help 28 <br />in this clarification. 29 <br /> 30 <br />Matt Hughes: Yeah, I think so. 31 <br /> 32 <br />Barry Katz: Retreat you mentioned; what else? 33 <br /> 34 <br />Matt Hughes: Well, pulling from Michael’s, whatever we’re calling this, Zoning Compliance Permit 35 <br />Review from November; it pulls right from the permit application where it says barn for agricultural 36 <br />use including but not necessarily limited to the storage and processing of agricultural products and 37 <br />equipment, agro-tourism such as educational workshops, school field trips, weddings, retreats, and 38 <br />farm dinners. So to me a few of those would definitely be more incidental to the farm under what 39 <br />I’m hearing from you all incidental more so than… 40 <br /> 41 <br />Karen Barrows: Exactly. 42 <br /> 43 <br />Matt Hughes: Maybe farm dinners and weddings. I’ve never been to a farm dinner so I don’t know 44 <br />what that means; I’m not hip enough. 45 <br /> 46
