Approved 11/8/2010 <br /> <br />OC Board of Adjustment – 10/11/2010 Page 34 of 35 <br />1 <br />2 <br />3 <br />4 <br />5 <br />6 <br />7 <br />8 <br />9 <br />10 <br />11 <br />12 <br />13 <br />14 <br />15 <br />16 <br />17 <br />18 <br />19 <br />20 <br />21 <br />22 <br />23 <br />24 <br />25 <br />26 <br />27 <br />28 <br />29 <br />30 <br />31 <br />32 <br />33 <br />34 <br />35 <br />36 <br />37 <br />38 <br />39 <br />40 <br />41 <br />42 <br />43 <br />44 <br />45 <br />46 <br />47 <br />48 <br />49 <br /> <br />Tom Brown: We need to affirm, I don’t think there is a mind to reverse. I think we need to affirm the zoning officer’s <br />determination now the question is how. If it needs to be, at least four of us agree. If you want the yoga, there are five of <br />us here, the full members, that have to vote. Is there a sense of a motion? Do we need any further discussion? <br /> <br />Dawn Brezina: David, what are your thoughts on this? <br /> <br />David Blankfard: I think that they should be allowed to have yoga, I don’t they should have the special events, I don’t <br />think they should have the special rental for private events except for birthday events with an agricultural component. <br /> <br />Tom Brown: I would agree with that. <br /> <br />Larry Wright: When you take a look at 8.7 we can’t amend zoning, or ordinances. So I’m sorry but we… It’s a poison <br />pill. <br /> <br />David Blankfard: Mr. Harvey said that the only ones in play were a, b, and c. <br /> <br />Tom Brown: I think at this point we’re probably waiting for a motion along the lines of what we propose affirming the <br />zoning officer’s determination with modifications as specified. <br /> <br />Larry Wright: We don’t have a choice. <br /> <br />Tom Brown: Are you all ready? <br /> <br />Larry Wright: Unfortunately. <br /> <br />MOTION: <br />David Blankfard: Mr. Chairman, I make a motion to affirm staff’s decision to review the interpretation of this Special Use <br />Permit approved on April 14 of 2008 based on the testimony of Mr. Harvey, the additional uses of the facility constitute a <br />modification to the Special Use Permit, except with respect to the teaching of yoga classes that meet the county <br />ordinance of 8.7.1 and the space rental for private events for birthday events with an agricultural component. <br /> <br />Tom Brown: Is there a second? <br /> <br />Dawn Brezina: Would a friendly amendment include, also including perhaps holiday parties and some other, parties <br />that would an agricultural theme? <br /> <br />Tom Brown: I think we are going down a bad path. <br /> <br />David Blankfard: I wouldn’t agree with that, sorry. <br /> <br />SECOND: Motion was seconded by Dawn Brezina <br /> <br />VOTE: 4 in favor (Blankfard, Brezina, Brown, Wright), 1 against (Carter) <br /> <br />Tom Brown: There are four aye votes, one nay vote. Based on the following determination, the zoning officer’s formal <br />determination on Case A-3-1 appeal of a decision made by the zoning officer submitted by Mapleview Agricultural <br />Center, LLC has been affirmed with the modifications as specified in the motion. <br />
