10 Michael Harvey continued reviewing abstract. 484 485 Tony Blake: So the charging stations are treated like a kiosk? 486 487 Michael Harvey: Yeah. 488 489 Lydia Wegman: Under offices? 490 491 Michael Harvey: No. inaudible. So if you’re comfortable with that I can try it out and let you all see it. 492 493 unknown 1:22:07: Could I back up for a second? Under salvage yard does that include recycling centers? 494 495 Michael Harvey: Recycling center’s actually covered elsewhere in this section. Let’s continue to go through and if not let me 496 make a note so I can answer your question. 497 498 Tony Blake: So one question I had about the contractors is a number of them do on site fabrication of things where they 499 actually assemble something and put it together and is that a separate category or is that always allowed? Especially the 500 HVAC guys. 501 502 Michael Harvey: My initial reaction is it should be covered under manufacturing versus the office of. 503 504 Tony Blake: Oh, ok, this is the bookkeeping and all that? 505 506 Michael Harvey: Yeah. 507 508 Lydia Wegman: I’m sorry, you have two categories that you’ve created, two different ones for bank settings and credit union 509 with or without an ATM. Is that because of the cars? 510 511 Michael Harvey: Yeah. You may have districts where you don’t care if there’s a bank but you may not want an ATM. 512 513 unknown 1:23:34: Where do drive ins as a general category fit? Or are they all distributed under a particular type of drive in? 514 515 Michael Harvey: Well that’s a loaded question. That unfortunately has a lot of history in this county when it comes to drive ins. 516 517 Unknown: That’s why I asked the question. 518 519 Michael Harvey: I think that the honest answer is that we broke it out here specifically to try to determine if there were 520 locations generally zoning districts or other districts where, yes, you might want to have a bank but you didn’t want a drive up 521 ATM. We currently prohibit drive trough’s in the Efland Cheeks overlay district along highway 70 going towards Mebane and 522 there was a prohibition the Hillsborough Economic Development district prohibiting drive through facilities, period, which was 523 eliminated last fall. Typically I would argue to you that a drive through, say for a retail center if it’s a dry cleaner, or if it’s a 524 pharmacy, is an accessory permitted use. I don’t distinguish in here, other than the ATM, because I’ve had commissioners 525 complain about… We may want a bank in the neighborhood commercial zoning district but we’re not going to have a drive 526 through. Ok, this is one way to try to address that. 527 528 Randy Marshall: So rather than having a separate item in the UDO for drive-thrus you are placing those within the different 529 commercial categories 530 531 Michael Harvey: There are those areas that I’m saying can’t have it and trying to keep mum on the rest, to be honest, because 532 I don’t want to get into the micro management of. Restaurants is another prime example, we’ll get into it in a minute. We 533 originally had four categories of restaurants. James Bryan and I decided it might be a good idea to just collapse that into just 534 one category, say restaurants. And then say you can have a restaurant in this zoning district without a drive through. And then 535 that gets basically the same standard here, as a way to try to simplify some of this. Make it a little easier. 536 537 14
