Approved 7/1/2015 <br />14 <br /> 638 <br />Lydia Wegman: Added to the long list already 639 <br /> 640 <br />Lisa Stuckey: You could do a completely identical parallel amendment to the code and just change the 641 <br />things we like. We could have 2 of them sitting there. 642 <br /> 643 <br />Pete Hallenbeck: I’ll remind everybody that we have this dinner with the commissioners every year and 644 <br />that’s an opportunity to say here are areas that we think would be interesting to look at this might be a very 645 <br />good thing to look at and now you’re going to go through the right process instead of tweaking it and if this 646 <br />goes away, we could still have our solution. 647 <br /> 648 <br />Laura Nicholson: I withdraw my amendment request however this is a solution without a problem. It’s a 649 <br />unaffordable ridiculous thing but I am all for complying with state regulations. 650 <br /> 651 <br />Tony: 1 question for Mike, this temporary structure does this count against your impervious surface? 652 <br /> 653 <br />Michael Harvey: Everything counts against your impervious surface if it meets the definition. 654 <br /> 655 <br />Paul Guthrie: Between the septic laws and the impervious surface, I think there can be lots of decisions 656 <br />made on the process. 657 <br /> 658 <br />Lydia Wegman: Craig & Michael you mentioned co -housing and it sounds like some discussion is going on, 659 <br />is that something this could incude addressing this problem that we’re talking about? 660 <br /> 661 <br />Craig Benedict: Yes. I think this could go true we have new initiatives about affordable housing about small 662 <br />housing but we’ve been trying to describe these new hou sing opportunities out there. Are they mobile 663 <br />homes, are they RVs, are they micro houses, we will be presenting to the commissioners probably in 664 <br />September of this year. These other type of housing options would address bringing the parents back in the 665 <br />house. We’re into that process, we would expect getting a green light to address some of those issues in 666 <br />September or October and bringing forward later this year. 667 <br /> 668 <br />Lydia Wegman: And would that kind of thing come to the planning board fi the commissioners said go? 669 <br /> 670 <br />Craig Benedict: Yes, definitely. 671 <br /> 672 <br />Lydia Wegman: Thank you. 673 <br /> 674 <br />Pete Hallenbeck: We have a statement of consistency to vote on and it says this isn’t against what’s in the 675 <br />comprehensive plan. It addresses a .25% improvement on that plan. We’ll need a mot ion to vote on that 676 <br />and then vote on the specific amendment items here. We’ll make a recommendation to the BOCC on the 677 <br />statement of consistency that yes we think it is consistent. 678 <br /> 679 <br />MOTION made by: Buddy Hartley. Seconded by: Bryant Warren 680 <br /> 681 <br />Lydia Wegman: Housing goal #2 – Housing that is useable by as many people as possible regardless of 682 <br />age, ability or circumstances but this is only useable by one person 683 <br /> 684 <br />Tony Blake: 1 income 685 <br /> 686
