What if you have five people living in a dwelling unit and had two people living in an unrelated <br />care center. Could those five people use some of the facilities without violating the ordinance? Could you actually <br />have seven people using the facility? <br /> <br />Ashley Moncado: In theory, possibly. If they met the health and environmental standards to put the temporary <br />structure on the property I don’t know if there is anything we could do to enforce it until we receive a complaint. <br /> <br />Paul Guthrie: I’m not advocating restricting it; I’m just trying to get the definition. <br /> 57
