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